Thinking Through Tragedy and Comedy: Performance Philosophy and the Future of Genre
How do performance and philosophy encounter one another? Where do thinking and performing overlap? These are fundamental questions that are currently stimulating the ideas of philosophers, theatre and literature scholar and performers alike. Our international symposium offers a forum for this cross-disciplinary debate by focusing on tragedy and comedy as exemplary sites on which the tensions between theatre, philosophy, and performance are played out. Genre studies returns as a foil with which to reframe the discursive cultures that performance and philosophy offer. We seek to trace the future of genre in its philosophical and performative dimension. Our goal is to think the productive clash between generic structure and performative flow.
