Publication Access status: Open Access , Puppen als Seelenverwandte – biographische Spuren von Puppen in Kunst, Literatur, Werk und DarstellungThis fourth issue of denkste: puppe / just a bit of: doll (de:do), a multidisciplinary online journal for human-doll discourses, takes up the thematic focus on dolls/puppets as soulmates – biographical traces of dolls/puppets in art, literature, work and performance. It is about the impact of early doll experiences in later artistic work and thus about the possible (biographical) roots and connections of doll motifs and doll narratives in artistic-literary work. Doll/puppet references in work and creative processes can transform early experiences of biographical breaks and harm or integrate them in an artistically productive way, but they can also be an expression of continuity and intensification of early experience and preferences. The present contributions deal with doll/puppet-related artistic forms of expression, which are formally presented in different ways: as science-based text, self-report, miscellaneous, review, interview and: work of art. Doll/puppet collections, the making of particular puppets, literary puppet texts, performances and images are examined and addressed. In addition, further contributions were included, which deal with dolls as variants of "artificial humans" in the most diverse thematic contexts. Most of the contributions indicate that the affinity to the “phenomenon of the doll” in its various artistic forms of realization refers to biographically shaped traces: as a means of expression and representation the doll thus also stands for something special about the human beings who refer to it artistically and interact and "play" with it.Source Type:Periodical PartJournal:denkste: puppe / just a bit of: doll (de:do)Volume number:2021,112 10 - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Publication Access status: Open Access , Títeres, Teddybären und Puppen in der Hand – Auf der Suche nach der eigenen WeltAgainst the background of her own family constellation and migration biography Kristiane Balsevicius reflects on the significance of early experiences with dolls/puppets and puppeteering in childhood and adolescence for her artistic development as a puppeteer, director and head of a puppet theater. Looking back, it becomes clear that early emotions and play themes (e.g., belongingness, yearning, self-determination, love) are recurrently processed and artistically transformed in very differently designed doll/puppet figures and productions for children and adults.Source Type:ArticleJournal:denkste: puppe / just a bit of: doll (de:do)Volume number:2021,1-Artikel_092 6
