Drama – Dementia – DemocracyIn this issue of the Nordic Journal of Art & Research, we present two scholarly articles that are both connected to drama, yet are quite different.
One article explores how arts-based research can be used to raise awareness of frontotemporal dementia. Drawing on autoethnographic conversations and observations, and using narrative analysis, the authors have created the play My Name is Beatrice. They also examine the play’s structure and central findings and highlight ethnodrama as an analytical tool for making cultural silence, stigma and misdiagnosis visible.
The other article examines how theatre work in a lower secondary school can be developed as an arena for citizenship and democracy. The study is intended as a research and knowledge contribution for schools and teachers who wish to develop lower secondary school performing arts productions in a more democratic direction. The research may also inform teacher education programmes’ approaches to aesthetic learning processes in interdisciplinary teaching.

Living as an a/r/tographer – a Nordic perspective ( part 2)This issue of the Nordic Journal for Art & Research is the second part of the special issue focusing on the arts-based methodology of a/r/tography as it is understood and practiced in the Nordic countries. Living as an A/r/tographer – A Nordic Perspective sheds light on the a/r/tographic connections created in the dynamic in-between spaces between artist, researcher, and teacher (A-rtist/R-esearcher/T-eacher). These connections involve the individual and personal as well as the social, for example within communities of practice. The aim of this special issue is to contribute knowledge that highlights the unique perspectives characterizing the work of academic staff engaged in artistic practices within Nordic teacher education. This second (and final) part of the special issue consists of an introduction, six peer-reviewed scientific articles, and one exploratory text.
