Podrobný výpis o publikaci

The author of the paper deals with the importance of language teaching and education, sometimes underestimated. Proceeding from the assumption that an actor's performance is a communicative performance, i.e. complex language performance in the widest sense of the word. Referring to Pofessor Josef Karlík's approach to language teaching, the author points out common features of language and acting performances on the basis of an old Hebraic, or rather the biblical concept of the creative word. He arrives at the conclusion that the acting performance can be perceived as very complex act of translating. Thus he concludes that it is necessary to approach language teaching and education as an integral part of acting education, which should be included in complex humanist education at institutes of higher education. The author continues with a short reflection about the importance of education, or rather about the loss of the humanist ideals of educations in contemporary society.
