    Im Bann von Tyll – Under the spell of Tyll (Daniel Kehlmann)
    (Department of German, University College Cork, 2020) Benjamin, Ross
    The following extract from Daniel Kehlmann’s novel Tyll, an epic of the Thirty Years War, focuses on legendary figure Tyll Ulenspiegel: vagabond, showman and provocateur. With his touring stage he travels across a country devastated by religious wars, and in many places leaves spectators spellbound by his acrobatic tricks.

    Drama and critical intercultural language pedagogy
    (Department of German, University College Cork, 2021) Nilson, Jenna; Dalziel, Fiona; Piazzoli, Erika; Scally, Garrett
    This article discusses findings from a research project with emergent bilingual youth in Phoenix, Arizona. This project focused on how critical intercultural language pedagogy impacts how and what methods of performative language teaching drama and language practitioners employ in the English as an Additional Language (EAL) class through engaging aspects of a Youth Participatory Action Research methodology (YPAR) and through taking a Mantle of the Expert approach in a process drama. The article uses Tania Cañas’s Manifesto “10 things you need to consider if you are an artist not of the refugee and asylum seeker community- looking to work with our community” to situate how this project sought to examine ethical process when working with language minoritized youth in the context of English language learning in the United States. Cañas (2015) argues that artists need to examine how their project methodologies promote equitable exchange, as well as how their participation frameworks situate power. In relation to the above points in Cañas’s Manifesto, the article discusses findings from the research project, and examines how effectively the project considered equitable exchange and power dynamics within the context of language learning. Findings relate how drama practitioners and language teachers must critically reflect on and focus their students’ choice and decision-making throughout the process, as well as seek to meaningfully incorporate students’ linguistic capacities in both English and their first languages.
