    Abstract

    The article deals with with historical anthropology and interdisciplinary cultural analysis can lead to innovation. Here are new paths for how research, education, theory and practice can be staged and performed in experiential processes where performance and sensuous practice are reconciled. Based on a sculpture by August Rodin (1840–1917), ‘The Burghers of Calais,’ displayed at the Ny Carlsberg Glyptotek in Copenhagen, we will present how educational activities such as performativity can unfold and be reconciled with physically based (gebildung) formation processes. By means of a combination of methods, we will present a didactic course reflected in an interpretational community where the participants create awareness and new knowledge.
