This course aims to raise a series of specific methodological issues to address and enhance the analysis of dramatic text and performative performance. It emphasises the importance of methodology in order to effectively analyse theoretical and/or practical research processes.
First section
1. Preliminary theoretical considerations on text and literature
2. The operation of reading: the theatre reader
3. Definition and delimitation of the dramatic text and dramaturgy
4. Concepts and models of analysis of a dramatic text
5. General aspects of the theatre spectator
Second section
1. General considerations on performative performance
2. Introduction to methodological issues
3. Differences between the external and the internal point of view
4. Discrimination between the logics of result and process work
5. Problems surrounding the language of performance and its elements

Theoretical classes are combined with the reading and analysis of various materials and documents, including case studies, in order to generate a critical debate on the different research methodologies related to dramatic text and performance.
In the event that there are assigned readings, they must be read before the corresponding class.
Annotation: Within the schedule set by the centre or degree programme, 15 minutes of one class will be reserved for students to evaluate their lecturers and their courses or modules through questionnaires.

Attendance in class/lectures/complementary activities | 10 % | 4 | 0.16 | CA01, KA01, KA02, KA03, KA29, KA34, SA01, SA02, SA03 |
Development of an exercise (individual or group) with a presentation in the classroom | 22,5 % | 15.5 | 0.62 | CA01, KA01, KA02, KA03, KA29, KA34, SA01, SA02, SA03 |
Development of an individual exercise | 22,5 % | 15.5 | 0.62 | CA01, KA01, KA02, KA03, KA29, KA34, SA01, SA02, SA03 |

Continuous assessment
Continuous assessment is based on the following four aspects:
1) The attendance in class. 10 %. Interest in the subject, relevant participation in the debates and involvement in the group dynamics will be assessed.
2) The elaboration of an exercise (individual or group) with a presentation in the classroom on some aspect related to the reading. 22,5 %. The following will be assessed: a) the ability to integrate the theoretical foundations acquired; b) the analytical and critical interpretation of the bibliography; and c) the use of specific terminology and the appropriate linguistic register.
3) The elaboration of an individual written exercise consisting of the partial application, in a contemporary play, of one of the methodologies of analysis of the dramatic text studied in class. Length: 2,100 characters with spaces. 22,5 %. The following will be assessed: a) the ability to analyse the theatrical text; b) the critical application of the chosen methodology; and c) the argumentation and clarity of exposition.
4) The performance in the classroom of a case study in small groups. 45 %. The following will be taken into account: a) the ability to apply the methodological tools set out in the third block in order to interrogate the working documents; b) the ability to extract information from the documentary material; c) the ability to order, prioritise and clearly write up the information produced; and d) the ability to work in a group, to effectively divide up the tasks in order to optimise the time available and the abilities of each person.
Single assessment
The single assessment will consist of:
1) An oral test on the contents of the sessions including a practical case study. 25 %
2) A written exercise that partially applies, in a contemporary play, one of the methodologies of analysis of the dramatic text studied in class. Length: 2.100 characters with spaces. 25 %
3) A writtenexam on the contents of the acting block. 50 %
The same recovery system will be applied as for the continuous assessment.
Observations
1. At the time of each assessment activity, the teacher will inform the student (Moodle) about the procedure and the date of revision of the qualifications.
2. In order to take part in the recovery, the student must have been previously assessed in a set of activities the weight of which is equivalent to a minimum of 2/3 of the total qualification (continuous assessment), or must hand in all the tests foreseen (single assessment). In addition, the teacher may require the student to have obtained a final average qualification of at least 3.5.
3. The student will receive the qualification "Not evaluable" if he/she has not handed in more than 1/3 of the evaluation activities.
Plagiarism
In the case of any irregularity (copying, misuse of AI, etc.) by the student that may lead to a significant variation in the qualification of an evaluation act, this evaluation act will be qualified with a 0, regardless of the disciplinary process that this may entail. If several irregularities occur in the evaluation acts of the same subject, the final qualification of this will be 0.
