ZUPANC LOTKER, Sodja. The Escapologist Case: Transformations of Practice Towards Spatial Dramaturgy in Contemporary Theatre, PhD dissertation, Theatre Faculty of the Prague Academy of the Performing Arts, Prague 2017, 226 pages. This thesis aims to define a contemporary theatre practice, a new practice in dramaturgy influenced by some radical changes in theater since the 1980’s, I call this new practice ‘spatial dramaturgy,’ it includes: 1) a decentralization and fragmentation of narrative; 2) performing in found spaces; 3) using authentic material for creation of performance (space, community or events); and 4) physical and mental activation of audiences. My primary case study for spatial dramaturgy is Apology of the Escapologist performance by Hungarian Krétakör company from 2009, a performance that also marked a change in theatre making practice for this company. Apology of the Escapologist took audiences through eight separate spaces, with a variety of functions (a garage, hospital, offices, public square etc.), originally none of them built for theatre, in a series of events that took place in Budapest District 9 over the course of eight weeks from March 8th to May 1st, 2009. The Apology of the Escapologist performance had five parts consisting of eight scenes. The performance took place over the course of nine weeks in eight locations; each scene took place in a different location on a different day. The audience had to make sense of the fragmented story, had to choose how to follow the story physically - where and when to go, and had to dedicate a lot of time to do this. The audience also physically entered into the playing spaces. This thesis follows the project and proposes that contemporary theatre is a ‘shared space’ entered by audiences, that contemporary dramaturgy is becoming de-hierarchized and decentralized and is proposing forms of relating in-between the dramaturgical elements of the performance, and that by using authentic material (people, spaces, events), through this ‘spatial dramaturgy’ theatre is proposing new ways to perceive relationships between reality and fiction. This thesis also describes the political motivation behind the change in Krétakör’s work and focus. It provides background information about the situation in politics in Hungary at the time of the making of the Apology of the Escapologist that caused Árpád Schilling change the way he makes theatre. But it also looks at these new strategies of ‘spatial dramaturgy,’ that include: points of view, positioning and relating - as strategies that politicize the act and experience of theatre.

Multiple studies have shown that organizational learning have a positive effect on military organizations. This is especially true in contemporary warfare, where cyber and information warfare increases to influence modern warfare means and methods. To counter this, it is important that the processes of organizational learning is functional and allows innovations to change what soldiers learn, to better equip them for the conflict of the future.   This essay analyses the Swedish army’s policy documents regarding organizational learning and solider education to expose barriers described by Schilling et.al., which might hinder processes within organizational learning. The purpose of the study is thus to show how policy documents influences organizational learning by enabling or hindering this process.  The results show that many of the barriers described by Schilling et.al is covered and adequately handled within the policy documents of the army, but not all of them. Most notable is the army’s attitude towards the technological development regarding warfare, which is said to risk making innovation from past experiences obsolete, hindering the innovation's path through the organization and thus risk that useful innovations are discarded which in turn can lead to risks in a presumptive conflict.

Der Beitrag von Janine Pisharek mit dem Titel Lesbische Repräsentation in der polnischen Literatur nach 1989: Die Prosa Ewa Schillings legt den Fokus auf die sozialen und kulturellen Rahmenbedingungen, die sich aus dem Verhältnis zwischen nationaler Identität, Geschlechtskonstruktionen und Sexualität im polnischen Diskurs ergeben. Der Blick auf die romantische Nationalkonzeption und ihr Wechselwirken mit Geschlecht und Sexualität offenbart eine Verwobenheit dieser Kategorien sowie daraus resultierende Konsequenzen für die Spielräume lesbischer Repräsentation in der polnischen Literatur der 1990er Jahre. Der Beitrag weist anhand einer exemplarischen Analyse von Erzählungen aus Schillings Erzählband Lustro (Spiegel, 1996) nach, dass lesbische Narrative in diesem Rahmen ein subversives Potenzial entfalten und sich unter anderem durch den Ausdruck nationaler Unzugehörigkeit(en) auszeichnen, die die ‚Andersartigkeit‘ der ‚lesbischen Frau‘ markieren, wobei zugleich Fragen nach dem Inhalt einer vermeintlichen polnischen nationalen Identität aufgeworfen werden.

Le laboratoire Woyzeck propose une approche de l'oeuvre de Büchner en trois temps, ordonnée autour de la métaphore anatomique. L'écriture de Woyzeck prend la forme d'une autopsie, indissociable des travaux scientifiques de Büchner réalisés à la même période. Le premier chapitre évoque ce geste d'écriture incisif et sa réception. Un état des recherches permet de considérer les analyses philologiques et herméneutiques de l'oeuvre qui font aujourd'hui autorité. Sont ici rappelés les lieux communs de la critique et les interprétations marquantes de la pièce. Si leur validité est ensuite interrogée, leur valeur symptomatique est aussi prise en compte sur un autre plan. Le deuxième chapitre prend la forme d'un essai portant sur les personnages et les corps, objets de l'autopsie. Il explore autrement des hypothèses formulées dans le premier chapitre autour du langage et du fragment. Le lieu de cette autopsie, la scène, est abordé dans le troisième chapitre à travers les mises à l'épreuve scéniques. Les trois spectacles choisis adoptent des partis pris dramaturgiques distincts. Celui de Thomas Ostermeier se présente comme un atelier social; « le cirque des travailleurs » d'Àrpàd Schilling est une machine à jouer qui semble relever le pari du théâtre de la cruauté artaudien; Robert Wilson travaille de pair avec Tom Waits pour créer un spectacle musical qui fait figure de conte populaire universel et autoréférentiel. Parmi les enjeux de ces mises à l'épreuve figurent notamment le rapport au réel et au présent, ainsi que le regard porté sur les corps que le texte de Georg Büchner invite à questionner. Dans un esprit d'ouverture et de confluence, en adéquation avec les travaux de Büchner, cette réflexion puise autant dans des notions d'analyse théâtrale que dans l'esthétique et l'histoire de la médecine. ______________________________________________________________________________ MOTS-CLÉS DE L’AUTEUR : Woyzeck, Regard, Fragment, Mise en scène.

Esta dissertação constrói a biografia da brasileira Flávia Schilling (1953- ) desde a sua infância, passando pelo seu exílio no Uruguai em 1964, até o seu retorno ao Brasil em 1980. Seu objetivo principal é reconstruir parte da trajetória de Flávia e, em termos mais amplos e abstratos, problematizar, por meio de sua biografia, as formas de constituição do indivíduo na história, buscando respostas para questões como: como se dá a construção do indivíduo – por si e pelo outro? Como se forma a sua identidade? Quais os elementos, escolhas e condicionamentos precisam ser analisados nesse processo? Pretende-se, assim, repensar e discutir como o indivíduo pode ser percebido pelas diversas óticas que o constituem e como ele interage – ativa e passivamente – com o meio em que vive, e aqui mais especificamente, relacionando-o com o período das ditaduras de segurança nacional na América Latina. O exílio, a militância, a clandestinidade, a prisão e a campanha de libertação da referida personagem, juntamente com as ditaduras iniciadas com os golpes civis-militares do Brasil em 1964 e do Uruguai em 1973, são temas analisados ao longo do trabalho. / This dissertation builds the biography of Brazilian Flavia Schilling (1953-) from her childhood, through her exile in Uruguay in 1964, until her return to Brazil in 1980. Its main objective is to reconstruct part of the trajectory of Flavia and, in terms broader and more abstract problematize through her biography, the forms of the constitution of the individual in history, seeking answers to questions such as: how is the construction of the individual - for themselves and for each other? How is your identity? Which elements, choices and constraints need to be analyzed in this process? It is intended, therefore, to rethink and discuss how the individual may be perceived by many that the optics are and how it interacts - actively and passively - with the environment they live in, and here more specifically, relating it to the period of dictatorships national security in Latin America. Exile, the activists, underground, imprisonment and release of that campaign character along with dictatorships began with the civilian-military coup in Brazil in 1964 and Uruguay in 1973, are themes explored throughout this research.
