    From Pedrolino to a Pierrot: The Origin, Ancestry and Ambivalence of the British Pierrot Troupe

    No full text
    In this article, the author considers the British development of the seaside Pierrot troupe, arguing that its construction is consistent with the notion of invented tradition, and the associated concerns with identity and nationality. Tracing the history of the character from its origins as Pedrolino in the commedia dell’arte, the article considers the traditional and novel elements of the British form. This also allows a brief account of the origin and aesthetics of the British tradition. Reflecting on the synthesis of the archaic and contemporary dimensions of the form, the author proposes that the new structure constructed an ambivalent class of character. The composition of both troupes and audiences was drawn from across the range of social strata. Through its collectivity and its treatment of contemporary social themes, it is argued the British Pierrot troupe approached and negotiated questions of a cultural and national identity in the late-Victorian period. Dave Calvert is a Senior Lecturer at the University of Huddersfield, UK. His research interests include street theatre, Applied Theatre and learning disabled performance. He is also a member of The Pierrotters, the last remaining seaside Pierrot troupe

    Thesis (M.A.)--Georgetown University, 2009.; Includes bibliographical references. This project investigates the collaborative relationship between testifier (Valentino Achak Deng, a Lost Boy of Sudan), author (Dave Eggers), and readers in Dave Egger's What Is the What. I explore the changing genre of memoirs. I use narrative and reader-response theories to analyze Eggers's meticulous narrative construction. Finally, I argue that Eggers builds a collaborative relationship with the reader in order to transform them into an activist outside of the text

    More talk than walk: Indonesia as a foreign policy actor

    No full text
    Indonesia is unlikely to become a significantly influential international actor in the medium term, despite its size, strategic location and economic potential. Key findings: Indonesia’s influence in international affairs is growing, but it will not become a major power in the short to medium term. Facing public pressure to exert influence globally, Indonesia will pursue a far-reaching foreign policy agenda, but without the resources to flex its muscles in support of its ideas. Countries can engage now on regional and global issues that are important to Indonesia and that help it be seen as a global player, thereby building trust and relationships that are a long term investment in Indonesia’s future potential
