Borders between Performing Arts and Philosophy

Abstract

Abstract: Apparently, philosophy has nothing to do with performing arts, as its environment is purely theoretical and eminently abstract, while the word performance refers to the notions of operation, implementation, action. I propose here the reoccupation of the borders between philosophy and performance arts by means of a reflection on the following points: 1. What is the performance of philosophy?; 2. What can philosophy say about performance?; 3. Which are the possible forms of composition between philosophy and performing arts?Résumé: Apparemment la philosophie n’a rien à voir avec les arts de la scène, parce que son environnement est purement théorique et éminemment abstrait, tandis que le terme performance se rapporte aux notions d’opération, d’exécution, d’action. Je propose ici la réoccupation des frontières entre philosophie et arts de la performance par une réflexion sur les points suivants: 1. Quelle est la performance de la philosophie?; 2. Que peut dire la philosophie sur la performance?; 3. Quelles sont les formes possibles de composition entre la philosophie et les arts de la performance?Resumo: Aparentemente a filosofia nada tem a ver com as artes da performance, pois seu ambiente é meramente teórico e eminentemente abstrato, enquanto o termo performance remete às noções de operação, execução, ação.
