De obicei, prima reacție este de respingere, ca un exemplu tipic de „limbă de lemn”. Ce pierdem însă atunci când ne limităm la a respinge? În primul rând, pierdem privilegiul de a observa că principala eroare provine din ruptura implicită dintre școală și comunitate, dintre școală și familiile copiilor aflați în ciclul școlar, între școală și oamenii din comunitate, statistic majoritatea foști elevi ai aceleiași școli de cartier. Dar mai există oare aceste comunități sau ne iluzionăm? În al doilea rând, ratăm prilejul de a pune adevărata întrebare. Cum poate redeveni școala un centru de referință al comunității, implicit al societății în întregul său? Răspunsul pare simplu: prin redefinirea școlii ca centru cultural, având ca activitate centrală educația, dar hrănind întreaga comunitate printr-un complex de activități culturale. Dezvoltarea instituțională ar trebui să urmeze trei direcții: pedagogică, socială și artistică. Două din ariile curriculare ale actualei structuri ar trebui să se adreseze întregii comunități: Om și societate, respective Arte.

  • UN COMPENDIU DE STILURI Marcela Dan Volumul Poetici Ale Artei Actorului În Secolul XX , De Nicolae Cristache Trece În Revistă
    UN COMPENDIU DE STILURI Marcela Dan olumul Poetici ale artei actorului în secolul XX, de Nicolae Cristache trece în revistă personalități ale vieții teatrale care și-au pus amprenta în pregătirea Vactorilor și a învățământului artistic prin metodele lor. Car- tea este un compendiu al stilurilor artistice și o scurtă sinteză a poeticilor teatrale din ultimul veac. Acest demers pornește de la personalitatea cea mai reprezentativă a artei actorului Konstantin Stanislavski, în alte două capitole ne vorbește des- pre diferiți oameni de teatru, modelele lor de lucru cu actori, tratând teatrul american, european (rus, francez, german, englez, polonez, italian), precum și cel românesc al cărui re- prezentant este Ion Cojar, și se încheie cu metoda lui Bertolt Brecht. Acest volum le oferă studenților un îndrumar în pro- cesul de pregătire universitară. Sistemul lui Stanislavski este o abordare sistematică a in- struirii actorilor pe care practicantul rus de teatru Konstantin Stanislavski a dezvoltat-o în prima jumătate a secolului XX. Sistemul său cultivă ceea ce el numește „arta de a experimen- ta“ (în contrast cu „arta reprezentării“). El mobilizează gândi- rea conștientă a actorului și voința, pentru a activa alte pro- cese psihologice mai puțin controlabile - cum ar fi experiența emoțională și comportamentul subconștient - simpatic și in- direct. În repetiție, actorul caută motive interioare, pentru a justifica acțiunea și definirea a ceea ce personajul încearcă să obțină la un moment dat (o „sarcină“). În cele din urmă, Sta- nislavski a ajuns să-și organizeze tehnicile într-o metodologie coerentă și sistematică, care s-a bazat pe trei direcții majore de influență: I.
