'Event, Dispositif, Agency in Literature, Theatre, and Beyond (from 1700 to our days)'

Workshop at the Free University Berlin – 11 January 2018

Organisers: Dr Alexei Evstratov and the Dahlem Humanities Center

Deadline for abstract submission: 25 October 2017

 

The workshop will address the problem of reconstructing “artistic” experience, where “artistic” is defined by an event’s sponsors, participants, or audience. We will approach this frame of experience not only as a set of rules of conduct, changing through time, but also as a site of knowledge production. While a certain emphasis will be placed on theatre and literature in Europe from 1700 to recent past, students of other areas and artistic media are encouraged to submit proposals. The workshop will bring together researchers working on approaches to experience and its reconstruction ‘from below,’ from both historical and theoretical perspectives, across geographical areas and arts.

Keywords: art and experience, art and agency, subject and subjectivity, social history, sociology of the arts, reception, interactions, social anthropology, art and ethnography, power, dispositif.
