Anthropo-scenes: performing arts, ecology, and diversity of ways of life

Abstract

Continuing the approach to urgent contemporary issues, the magazine Conceição|Conception presents, in this issue, the Dossier “Anthropocenes: performing arts, ecology and diversity of ways of life”. Our international guest editor, Professor Daniel Tércio - dance critic, professor and researcher at the Faculty of Human Motricity of the University of Lisbon - managed to bring together a very significant group of collaborators from different nationalities. This rich material comprises a multiplicity of theoretical and practical perspectives on the subject, expressed in different styles and forms of writing. Professor Tércio still offers us an acute reflection on the illusions created around the problem and the urgent need for action, in an editorial that also serves as a synthesis and reading guide for the Dossier.
