Abstract

This research internship abroad aims to deepen the PhD study, started in Brazil and funded by FAPESP, on the subject known as "theaters of the real", focusing on the relations of otherness constructed through the presence of non-actors in nowadays creations.With this intent, the internship will have the co-supervision of a recognized expert in the field, the researcher and teacher Dr. José Antonio Sánchez, chosen by the Brazilian supervisor of this project, Prof. Dra. Sílvia Fernandes.The goal is to, once abroad, verticalize research from different axes: orientation meetings with the researcher mentioned; systematic bibliographical survey on the concepts of theaters of the real, non-actors and otherness in European libraries; taking courses at the university chosen by indication of the co-supervisor; and participation in the research group coordinated by José Sánchez.It is also intended to engage in conferences related to the research topic, as long as it remains possible to reconcile study and academic activity with such participations. Furthermore, with specific regard to the research topic, the purpose is to follow the process of creation related to the new work of the Swiss-German collective Rimini Protokoll, as well as its season, once the group is one of the objects of investigation of this doctorate.
