Theatre of Reenactment.The Relation between Theatre and History in Theatrical Historicism and Contemporary Artistic Practice of Re-enactment

本研究项目首次将戏剧历史主义与再现理论的当代艺术实践结合起来进行探讨。它为戏剧和历史之间的关系提供了新的视角，探索了自1800年以来现代戏剧和历史之间的双重纠缠：以19世纪历史主义的形式和以历史奇观的隐喻，这对于在同一时期重要哲学家的思想中理解历史至关重要。根据这些考虑，该项目将历史概念概念化为参考德勒兹的重演戏剧，并将通过分析两种典型的戏剧模式来测试和发展它，以参与历史：戏剧历史主义和重演。该项目以19世纪的柏林、巴黎和迈宁根为背景，详细阐述了社区建设的不同戏剧设计。该项目将以当代艺术再现为重点，分析从独裁和（东欧）解放历史中集体再现历史事件的不同方式。指导原则是重建在两种戏剧实践中被处理的集体历史形象和概念，并面对非实体性的影响，被压抑的回归和同样存在的戏剧性。调查的方法是分析媒介之间的相互作用以及形象、服装、戏剧和肢体动作之间的差异。戏剧的历史主义和重演的艺术实践通常被认为是对立的。在第一次系统地将两种戏剧实践联系起来的过程中，该项目避免了陷入二元陷阱，并期望获得双重收益：戏剧历史主义作为一种潜在的模棱两可的文化实践，对未来开放的重新发现，以及重新制定理论的重述，揭开形而上学存在的渣渣，并将重新制定理解为Nach-Leben/生存的姿态实践和持续的戏剧化，即对规定的历史话语和图像的违背。

The research project explores theatrical historicism and contemporary artistic practice of re-enactment for the first time within the conjunctive frame of the theory of reenactment. It sheds new light on the relation between theatre and history exploring their double entanglement in modern times since 1800: in the shape of historicism in nineteenth century and in the metaphor of the spectacle of history, which is crucial to understanding history in the thought of important philosophers at the same time. Following these considerations the project conceptualizes the idea of history as theatre of reenactment referring to Deleuze and will test and develop it by analyzing two exemplaric theatrical modes to engage with history: theatrical historicism and re-enactments. Focusing on the scenes of Berlin, Paris and Meiningen in nineteenth century the project will elaborate different theatrical designs of the construction of community. Focusing on contemporary artistic re-enactments the project will analyze the different ways of collective reenacting of historical events from the history of dictatorship and liberation of (eastern) europe. The guiding principle is to reconstruct the collective historical images and conceptions being treated in both theatrical practices and to confront them with effects of insubstantiality, the return of the repressed and of theatricality likewise being present there. The method of investigation is to analyze the interplay of media and differences between image, costume, dramaturgy and physical movement. Theatrical historicism and the artistic practice of re-enactment are usually regarded as antipodes. In relating both theatrical practices for the first time systematically the project avoids falling into the trap of binary and expects a double gain: A re/discovery of theatrical historicism as a potentially ambiguous cultural practice open for future and the restatement of the theory of re-enactment, pulling off the slags of metaphysical presence and understanding re-enacting as gestural practice of Nach-Leben/survival and continued theatricalization i.e the transgression of stipulated historical discourses and images.
