实践性知识的再发现:身体、模仿和表演

The Rediscovery of Practical Knowledge:Body,Mimesis and Performance

实践是教育领域的核心概念,连接着思想与行动。教育实践表现为推动教育实现的相关知识,这种知识不是理论的而是实践性的,惯习和模仿是教育实践性知识的重要概念组成。本文从三个方面对实践性知识进行讨论:第一,教育实践只有在文化科学中出现身体的再发现及其表演性转向的情境下才可以被理解,其中,身体运动和手势扮演了重要的角色;第二,教育实践与社会的等级制度和权力集团有着密切的联系,其结构类似于惯习;第三,教育行为依托于实践性的教育知识,并借助模仿的形式得以发生。

Practice is a central concept in education,which connects the thought and action.Educational practice implies the knowledge of how to perform education.This knowledge is not theoretical but practical.Here the concepts of habitus and mimesis are of central importance.Three aspects emerge whose interconnection constitutes the main novelty of the following discourse.The first relates to the assumption that contemporary educational practice can only be properly understood in the context of a rediscovery of the body and the performative turn within the cultural sciences.Physical movements and gestures play a central role here.Secondly,educational practice is closely connected to the hierarchies and power constellations of society and is structured in a way similar to habitus.Lastly,educational action depends upon practical educational knowledge which is acquired mimetically.
