Zoe Hogan - Böcker

This book explores the complexity of teaching artistry through the lens of a participatory drama project with adults from culturally and linguistically diverse backgrounds. Interweaving theory with practice-based research, Hogan considers how themes of flow, affect, care, and thirdspace illuminate participants’ experiences. This timely exploration adds to a growing discourse in drama-in-education and applied theatre that moves away from positivist jargon and grandiose claims in favour of research methods informed by social justice and the centring of the intrinsic value of arts-rich experiences. Weaving, unweaving, and reweaving is a central metaphor throughout the book, considering how arts-based research constitutes an iterative process of learning, unlearning, revisiting, and reconceiving preconceived notions and ideas.
