Članek izhaja izzavedanja, da vzadnjih desetletjih ni večsmiselno strogo ločevati med dramatiko in gledališčem, kajti opraviti imamo z »ne več dramo«(Poschmann) in z ne več gledališčem oz. ...spostdramskim gledališčem (Lehmann). V krizi reprezentacije in dramskeforme se srečujemo s heterogenimi, performativnimi inpomensko odprtimi strukturami. Umeščajo se v današnji spremenjenipoložaj umetnosti, katere moderna avtonomija je razpadla, umetnost pa je pričelaprivzemati druge postopke in funkcije. Včlanku v luči njihove družbene angažiranosti in političnosti analiziramo »ne več drame« Simone Semenič ter nekaj primerov nedavnih družbeno angažiranih uprizoritev v slovenskemgledališču, v katerih ima tekstovni del pomembno vlogo (Metamorfoze 4°: Črne luknje B. Kolenc, Republika Slovenija in Odilo. Zatemnitev. Oratorij D. Živadinova) in kisegajo od preprostihpolitičnih agitk do kompleksnih obravnav družbenih tem.
Pretežni del tokratne številke predstavljajo razprave, pripravljene na podlagi prispevkov na Amfiteatrovem simpoziju, ki je na temo »Gledališki eksperiment na Slovenskem (1966–1986) in njegovi ...odmevi« potekal 6. in 7. oktobra 2022 v dvorani Slovenskega gledališkega inštituta (SLOGI) v Ljubljani. Ideja o témi simpozija se je porodila ob nedavnem izidu zbornika Generator:: za proizvodnjo poljubnega števila dramskih kompleksov (UL AGRFT in SLOGI, 2022), v katerem je urednik Blaž Lukan zbral skoraj 60 slovenskih eksperimentalnih dramskih in uprizoritvenih tekstov iz obdobja modernizma (1966–1986) več kot 30 slovenskih avtorjev.
Over the last decade we are witnessing the increasing interest in the issues of body and embodiment which has resulted in recognition of these topics as crucial for the understanding of many ...phenomena of contemporary society, culture, and art. In the 1980s and the 1990s it seemed that the cybercultural paradigm was focused only on the issues of mind (e.g. in cyberpunk literature), however, the notion of body has been recently addressed anew in the digital culture as well. The human-machine hybrids are much more complex and sophisticated today. Such novel bodies, shaped by new technologies and software-controlled, are explored also by several e-literary works. The paper examines the line coming from Shelley Jackson's feminist hyperfiction and textual body art (e.g. My Body - a Wunderkammer, 1997 and Skin Project, 2003) to Serge Bouchardon's and co-authors' recent researches of interface. Primarily, it focuses on the e-literary piece Loss of Grasp (2010) that demands from the reader-user to be involved in reading by his complex (physical) activity or his bodily engagement. Loss of Grasp is analyzed also with the help of the phenomenological notions of body image and body schema (M. Merleau-Ponty). The latter one is very important for today's discussions on body since the possible extensions of body schema lead into the integration of different tools and interfaces into user's corporeality, which contributes to the understanding of contemporary culture as interface, software and algorithmic. Furthermore, the paper examines the question of the reader's (as well as the author's) control over Loss of Grasp, raised by the role of user's gestures in this piece. Comparing the piece with several other examples from e-literature and new media art, it finds out that the possibilities of the narration in Loss of Grasp are limited.
Tokratni zvezek Amfiteatra prinaša pester konglomerat besedil, tako po tematikah kot zvrsteh. Tomaž Toporišič se v svoji razpravi loteva premisleka o avantgardah, tej še zmeraj vroči temi. Obravnava ...jih skozi prizmo razmerij med središčem in obrobjem Srednje in Vzhodne Evrope, pri čemer izhaja iz predpostavke, da srednje- in vzhodnoevropskih avantgard ne smemo razumeti kot nepopolne derivate gibanj iz velikih zahodnih središč, temveč kot samostojne, avtentične izraze. Zemljevid zahodnih centrov modernistične in avantgardne umetnosti 20. stoletja je raziskovalcem dobro znan, toda tovrstne pregledne strukture za Vzhodno in Srednjo Evropo ni. Razprava seže od zgodovinskih avantgard v dvajsetih in tridesetih letih prejšnjega stoletja (predvsem zenitizem in konstruktivizem) prek neoavantgard k (slovenski) retroavantgardi proti koncu dvajsetega stoletja, ki ni le oživila nekatere prvotne ideje, temveč je hotela tudi eksplicitno ustvariti alternativne zemljevide evropske umetnosti.
Članek obravnava poglavitna miselna vozlišča Marjana Rožanca (1930-1990), kot jih je razvil v mnogih esejih do srede šestdesetih let dalje. Nanj so vplivale številne filozofske on idejne spodbude, ...med njimi tudi francosko personalistično gibanje. Članek se osredotoča na to povezavo, podati pa skuša tudi zaokrožen prikaz poglavitnih Rožančevih idej in njihovo ustvarjalno sintezo.
Lymphogranuloma venereum (LGV) is a sexually transmitted infection caused by the Li, L2, and L3 serotypes of Chlamydia trachomatis (CT). It primarily affects regional lymph nodes. Although it is not ...endemic in Europe and North America, recent reports indicate an increasing prevalence among men who have sex with men, with proctocolitis as the most frequently reported symptom. We report the case of a homosexual male that presented to our department with a nodular lesion on the shaft of the penis and tender, enlarged inguinal lymph nodes. Throat, urethral, and rectal swabs were collected for CT testing using real-time polymerase chain reaction. The urethral swab was positive for CT, whereas the throat and rectal swabs were negative. Subsequent testing detected the presence of LGV DNA. The patient was treated with a prolonged course of doxycycline. After 6 weeks, the urethral swab for CT returned a negative result. The patient reported complete remission 7 weeks after the start of treatment. Keywords: Chlamydia trachomatis, lymphogranuloma venereum, lymphadenopathy
Malignant syphilis (MS) is a rare form of secondary syphilis with grotesque skin lesions, systemic manifestation and life-threatening complications. This article presents a case of MS in an ...immunocompetent 41-year-old female, who initially manifested with a generalized nonpruritic erythematous rash and systemic symptoms. She was mistreated for generalized impetigo and hepatitis attributed to chronic alcoholism. After partial recovery and a 3-month latent period, she developed infiltrated plaques with crusts on the trunk, head and neck; pharyngitis and laryngeal lesions; generalized lymphadenopathy and nonspecific systemic symptoms. Serologic tests confirmed syphilis, and cerebrospinal fluid analyses indicated the presence of anti-treponemal antibodies. Urine drug screening was positive for cannabinoids. The polymerase chain reaction from skin biopsy samples identified
, confirmed with Warthin-Starry staining. Immunohistochemical analysis was uncharacteristic. Tertiary syphilis, neurosyphilis, ocular syphilis and otosyphilis were excluded. However, the patient was treated for neurosyphilis with benzylpenicillin (18 million IU intravenously daily, 14 days) and corticosteroids. No Jarisch-Herxheimer reaction occurred. Ten months after treatment, residual scars were visible, and 1 year later, she attempted suicide. Since MS can resemble other diseases, it should be suspected in a mentally ill patient with chronic drug abuse, systemic nonspecific manifestations and dermatological abnormalities, including the head and neck region.
