Un Hombre, Un Fuego Y Una Sombra. Una Aproximación Intermedial Al Teatro De La Imagen De Robert Lepage, Bértold Salas Murillo

Teatro: Revista de Estudios Escénicos / A Journal of Theater Studies

El artículo estudia la utilización de las “tecnologías de la imagen” en el teatro de Robert Lepage y, específicamente, su incorporación del vídeo en diálogo con la acción escénica. Para ello, toma la perspectiva de la intermedialidad como hibridación de medios en escena, que es característica en las escenificaciones del director quebequense. Se aborda, así, el carácter técnico y estético de los modos de operación de la imagen mediada en algunos de los espectáculos de Lepage: Les sept branches de la rivière Ota (1994-1997), La face cachée de la lune (La cara oculta de la luna, 2000-2003), Lipsynch (2007), Les …

Welcome To The Real World. Dramaturgia Del Personaje Y Poética De Actuación En La Creación Intermedial De Susanne Kennedy, Juan José Fernández Villanueva

Teatro: Revista de Estudios Escénicos / A Journal of Theater Studies

Este artículo analiza las características de la dramaturgia del personaje y su actuación de la directora de escena alemana Susanne Kennedy. La poética de esta creadora transita los territorios de la intermedialidad, con gran influencia de las artes plásticas, la estética de los videojuegos y las tecnologías aplicadas al teatro inmersivo. Partiendo de una contextualización de la trayectoria de Kennedy, se estudian las bases dramatúrgicas de su poética y son contrastadas
en uno de sus espectáculos referenciales: ¿Por qué enloquece el señor R? En él se da la consolidación plena de su poética escénica, donde se integra una poética

Los Audiovisuales En Su Función Coadyuvante O Vehicular: Una Aproximación, José Gabriel López Antuñano

Teatro: Revista de Estudios Escénicos / A Journal of Theater Studies

A pesar de la plena integración en la escena de los audiovisuales al comienzo del siglo XXI, en sus dos primeras décadas hemos asistido a una evolución técnica y estética de los medios que argumenta un nuevo acercamiento a las vertientes del audiovisual en la escena teatral. En esta aproximación se distingue la función coadyuvante y la vehicular, según sean empleados por los creadores en diálogo con el resto de integrantes de la escenificación o bien su presencia se imponga sobre ellos, ensamblando materiales de variados orígenes. Dentro de cada una de ellas se diferencian varios modos de operación, que …

De La Remediación Al Desarrollo Transmedial En La Escena Contemporánea, Mario De La Torre Espinosa

Teatro: Revista de Estudios Escénicos / A Journal of Theater Studies

Partiendo de la conceptualización de Henry Jenkins de lo transmedia como lógica narrativa, analizamos cómo se ha ido pasando en el mundo de la escena de la simple remediación al desarrollo de proyectos que han sido ideados desde sus inicios siguiendo estrategias transmediales, lo que sería en términos de Carlos Scolari un transmedia estratégico. Como muestra de estas ideas, se profundiza en los diversos modos de representación a partir de algunos ejemplos acaecidos en la escena en los últimos años, poniendo especial énfasis en España desde la declaración del cese de la actividad teatral por la situación derivada de la …

La Dimensión Escénica De La Música. Pensamiento Y Proceso Creativo De Simón Suárez De Arcos (1947-1996), Montserrat Muñoz Avila

Teatro: Revista de Estudios Escénicos / A Journal of Theater Studies

El objetivo principal de este artículo es dar luz sobre la figura de Simón Suárez de Arcos, artista escénico español de la segunda mitad del siglo XX. Fue un artista intuitivo, exquisito, visionario y, en cierto modo, un uomo universale renacentista del siglo XX, ya que estaba cualificado y trabajó como pintor, escenógrafo, figurinista, diseñador de luz, musicólogo, actor y director de escena. Para ello hemos elegido el periodo en el que trabajó en Madrid para teatro, danza y ópera, entre el otoño de 1983 y el invierno de 1995. Además de aportar datos biográficos y de contexto de este …

Deconstrucciones Del Hogar Hegemónico: La Familia Disfuncional En El Último Teatro Español, Ruth María Gutiérrez Álvarez

Teatro: Revista de Estudios Escénicos / A Journal of Theater Studies

El teatro español contemporáneo presenta una creciente tendencia a situar la familia en el centro de la materia dramática desde muy diferentes posturas estéticas, desde la autoreferencialidad y la autofictión del yo, procedimientos característicos de los ejercicios performativos, a la precisión de las formas de hiperrealismo. El presente artículo propone un análisis de aquellas piezas teatrales que llevan a cabo un profundo proceso de deconstrucción y desmitificación de la familia nuclear hegemónica por medio del cual, por un lado, se presenta el hogar como una convención social, política, económica e ideológica que oprime al individuo y, por otro, se cuestiona …

Autorretratos: Autoimágenes De Directores, Guilherme Delgado

Teatro: Revista de Estudios Escénicos / A Journal of Theater Studies

Resumen: Este artículo sugiere la utilización del concepto de autorretrato para reflexionar sobre los significados de la aparición del director, de cine o teatro, en escena. Apartándose de las tradicionales lecturas de la autoimagen como confesión biográfica y acercándose a la construcción simbólica que los artistas hacen de su medio y de su roles sociales, el ensayo hace un análisis de trabajos de José Celso Martinez Correa, Tadeusz Kantor, Alfred Hitchcock y Jafar Panahi.

Abstract: This article aims to use the concept of self-portrait to reflect about the appearance of the theater or cinema’s director in scene. Considering self-image as …

Put On Your Dancing Shoes: Boosting Divergent Thinking In Older Adults, Megan Itagaki

Scripps Senior Theses

This thesis will explore the influence of two dance modalities (dance improvisation and Zumba dance) on divergent thinking (i.e., an aspect of creativity) in older adults using a quasi-experimental design. Given the existing research on dance as a creativity intervention in the younger half of the population, this study may address a gap in the literature by extending these findings to older adults. Once prescreened to ensure cognitive competence and adequate physical mobility, participants will complete a divergent thinking task before their designated 20-minute dance intervention. After the intervention, participants will complete a divergent thinking task. It is hypothesized that …

The Ai-Copyright Challenge: Tech-Neutrality, Authorship, And The Public Interest, Carys Craig

All Papers

Many of copyright’s core concepts—from authorship and ownership to infringement and fair use—are being challenged by the rapid rise of generative AI. Whether in service of creativity or capital, however, copyright law is perfectly capable of absorbing this latest innovation. More interesting than the doctrinal debates that AI provokes, then, is the opportunity it presents to revisit the purposes of the copyright system in the age of AI. After introducing the AI-copyright challenge in Part 1, Part 2 considers the guiding principles and normative objectives that underlie—and so ought to inform—copyright law and its response to AI technologies. It proposes …

Denouncing Gender Violence In Spain And Rewriting The Female Narrative, Irene Kotyk

Williams Honors College, Honors Research Projects

This paper analyzes how Spanish female artists across Spain denounce domestic violence by exposing abuse and the culture of women domination in public spaces. Gender violence is important to analyze because it is a current issue in Spain, and globally, as there is a fight for gender equality in countries around the world. Technically speaking, domestic violence includes physical, emotional, and sexual abuse occurring between partners or within a family (Dutton). Recently, many artists across Spain are looking to reconstruct a new narrative for women. This paper will look at how gender-based violence against women was practiced throughout the Spanish …

The Common Sense Of A Wealth Tax: Thomas Paine & Taxation As Freedom From Aristocracy, Jeremy Bearer-Friend, Vanessa Williamson

GW Law Faculty Publications & Other Works

Thomas Paine’s writing helped spur the American colonies to independence and ensure that the new nation would be a republic, not a monarchy. In light of the renewed interest in wealth taxes, this article provides a close examination of Thomas Paine’s wealth tax proposal in the second volume of The Rights of Man. Unlike Paine’s proposal to tax inheritances, his 1792 proposal to tax wealth on an annual basis is often overlooked. The article identifies Paine’s various design specifications, provides original estimates of the impact of Paine’s wealth tax proposal within his own time period and as applied to billionaires …

Turn Not Thine Eyes: Holy Faces, Saving Gazes, And The Theology Of Attention, Jacob W. Torbeck

Dissertations

Jacob W. TorbeckLoyola University Chicago TURN NOT THINE EYES: HOLY FACES, SAVING GAZES, AND THE THEOLOGY OF ATTENTION Theoretical Theologies and Practical Theologies have historically been contrasted with one another as distinct but connected disciplines, a contrast with roots in the figures of Plato and Aristotle, or Mary and Martha. Over the centuries, with the increasing ability of theologians to specialize, theoretical theologians have accused practical theologians as ignoring spiritual realities, while practical theologians have accused theoretical theologians of ignoring material realities. This dissertation puts forward a theological exposition of the notion of contemplative attention that demonstrates the unity and …

Countering The Big Lie: The Role Of The Courts In The Post Truth World, Edward D. Cavanagh

Faculty Publications

(Excerpt)

This Essay analyzes the role of the courts in handling Trump’s election lie. It argues that the courts were certainly correct in giving short shrift to Trump’s lawsuits, but further that the courts should have done more than simply dismiss Trump’s claims. Had the courts aggressively utilized existing tools to identify and punish prosecution of baseless claims, including Rule 11 of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure and the courts’ inherent powers to control proceedings before them, the Trump election lie might well have been put to rest immediately before it could take root among die-hard Trump supporters. This …

Cultural Competence And Motivation To Control Prejudiced Reactions Of Criminal Justice Students: A Survey Methods Approach, Carole Marguerite Byrd

Theses & Dissertations

Implicit bias and discrimination in the police department can lead to devastating effects for people of color in racially diverse urban and suburban areas. However, there is very little research on the racial attitudes and assumptions that aspiring police recruits and other criminal justice professionals have about people of color who reside in inner cities and diverse communities. This study focused on assessing cultural awareness and motivation to control prejudiced reactions in a self-selected group of criminal justice undergraduate college students to see what bias they may have prior to entering the police department. Students completed a survey that included …

Ophthalmic Nursing Education: The Key To Unlocking Patient Access To Retina Services, Jacob P. Mcginnis

Master's Theses and Capstones

Background: Ophthalmology, the medical field dedicated to the human eye and visual system infrequently uses nurses due to a lack of nursing knowledge about ophthalmology.

Local Problem: An ophthalmic microsystem in the Northeastern United States is experiencing increased demand for services and decreased access to their retina section. The microsystem does not utilize nurses in the clinic because of education and training barriers. The specific aim of this quality improvement (QI) project is to increase nursing knowledge about ophthalmology from baseline to an overall passing score of 80%.

Methods: This QI project sought to see if registered nurses could …

On (Not) Seeing The Chicken: Perdue, Animal Welfare, And The Failure Of Transparency, Calvin Coker, Rachel A. Coker

Faculty and Staff Scholarship

In this essay, we analyze Perdue’s animal welfare campaign from 2016 to 2020 to isolate how demands for transparency are mediated and subverted by Perdue’s public facing rhetoric. Though Perdue’s annual releases and commitments to change nominally constitute a victory for animal welfare advocates, the company’s campaign enacts transparency as a sort of publicity for the company that belies marginal gains for the lives of chickens and may ultimately result in increased meat consumption. In providing trackable metrics, offering paternalistic justifications for their treatments of chickens, and through strategic omissions of language and visuals, Perdue satisfies demands for transparency without …

Firearms And Protest: Lessons From The Black Tradition Of Arms, Nicholas J. Johnson

Faculty Scholarship

Kenosha was no aberration. Our history is filled with episodes of righteous protest boiling over into violence. Where violence is imminent, our traditions and laws allow innocents to use corresponding violence in self-defense. This arrangement is imperfect and demands hard thinking about how to refine and possibly improve it. One source of lessons toward this end is the experience of Black freedom fighters who navigated turmoil that dwarfs our current troubles. The principles that guided their struggle help frame a sphere of legitimate gun use during periods of civil unrest. These principles emerge from a considered philosophy and practice of …

Legitimizing Lies, Courtney M. Cox

Faculty Scholarship

Lies are everywhere today. This scourge of misinformation raises difficult questions about how the law can and should respond to falsehoods. Legal discourse has traditionally focused on the law’s choice between penalizing and tolerating lying. But this traditional framing vastly oversimplifies the law’s actual and potential responses. Using trade secrets as a case study, this Article shows that the law sometimes accepts lies as a legitimate option for fulfilling legal requirements and may even require lies in increasingly common circumstances.

Commonly supposed legal and moral commitments against lying do not undermine this reality. To the contrary, the Article reveals that …
