TL;DR: In this article, the authors examine images of "nation as community" in Marta Gornicka's theatre and argue that the chorus plays the role of a critically minded character, exposing the current rise of nationalist tendencies, and the aporias of our liberal democracy.
Abstract: In the present text, I would like to examine images of ‘nation as community’ in Marta Gornicka’s theatre. By analysing the performative reading of Konstytucja na Chor Polakow [ Constitution for a Chorus of Poles ] and the production of Hymn do Milości [ Hymn to Love ] (Warsaw, 2 May 2016 and 21 January 2017, respectively), I would like to argue that Gornicka’s theatre deliberately comes to grips with the category of Polish nationality, in that it not only alludes to such crucial artefacts of a nation as constitution, national anthem or poetry that is a vital part of the Polish cultural canon – but also makes references to current political developments, both in Poland and across Europe. The chorus plays a unique role in Gornicka’s theatre: regarded as an institution separating diegetic universes, it presents a prismatic image of a community in which the concept of what is recognised as alien and our own is reconfigured. In addition, the chorus plays the role of a critically minded character, exposing the current rise of nationalist tendencies, and the aporias of our liberal democracy.

Such a discussion would be of extraordinary value in its results, and would do more to clarify our ideas upon the nature of the conscious and the unconscious than any study of hysteria or the phenomena of hypnosis. It would be a most desirable thing if the philosophers and psychologists who develop brilliant theoretical views on the unconscious

TL;DR: In this article, the relationship between one's teaching and one's theoretical platform is questioned, not in order to put oneself in line with current fashion but because the quality of one's work can improve if what one does instinctively is consciously conceptualized.
Abstract: From time to time one has to rethink the relationship between one’s teaching and one’s theoretical platform — not in order to put oneself in line with current fashion but because the quality of one’s work can improve if what one does instinctively is consciously conceptualized.
