Ich mache ja nicht das, was Menschen sind oder tun, zu meinem Thema

Zusatztext

Hans-Thies Lehmann explains that the academic debate concerning the value and content of the terms "postdramatic" and "postdramatics" would be in vain should it go unrecognised that the first is based on forms of the theatre and the latter primarily on text forms. He argues that - as far as present-day text-production is at issue- a literary analysis is required that does not derive logic, composition and structuring of the theatre text from extensive external dictates and attributions, but rather production-aesthetically from the immanent dynamics of the language material and writing process. In contrast, any theatrical science that neglects the complex dramaturgy of words would pay for this with a destructive flattening of their subject as the price for the absolutisation of the performative having been bought with such exclusion.
