Performatives Lehren Lernen Forschen – Performative Teaching Learning Research
Edited by Susanne Even and Manfred Schewe
Published by Schibri-Verlag

When I first heard the phrase “performative teaching and learning” I was reminded of a quote from Wittgenstein that “a new word is like a fresh seed thrown on the ground of the discussion.” These are the opening words of an article in this volume of the SCENARIO book series, whose goal it is to advance the intercultural dialogue within drama and theatre pedagogy. The six contributions to this anthology, in both English and German, explore performative teaching, learning, and research from multiple perspectives: general education, foreign language didactics, as well as drama and theatre pedagogy. Since the word “performative” features in many languages, we advocate its use – particularly in intercultural contexts – to characterize approaches to teaching, learning, and research that emerge from the dynamic interplay of pedagogy and the performing arts.
