Abstract

Abstract Jerzy Grotowski, a Western theatrical practitioner who incorporated psychophysical methods to help sustain the immediacy of the body and power of presence in performance, acknowledged the influence of non-Western embodied spiritual practices, such as Sufism and Mevlevi dance. In this article, I propose that the whirling dance of the dervish was a transformational influence on Grotowski and facilitated the development of his psychophysical program of actor training and rehearsing. This influence is under-acknowledged in scholarship on Grotowski, indicating possible anxiety in Western theatrical traditions about the incorporation of spiritual practices, especially those associated with Islam.

苏非舞蹈、恍惚和心理物理表演:杰日·格罗托夫斯基戏剧中的跨文化元素

摘要西方戏剧从业者耶日·格罗托夫斯基（Jerzy Grotowski）将心理物理学方法结合起来，以帮助在表演中保持身体的即时性和在场的力量，他承认非西方精神实践的影响，如苏菲主义和梅夫列维舞。在这篇文章中，我认为托钵僧的旋转舞蹈对格罗托夫斯基产生了变革性的影响，并促进了他演员训练和排练的心理物理计划的发展。这种影响在对格罗托夫斯基的学术研究中被低估了，这表明西方戏剧传统可能对精神实践的融合感到焦虑，尤其是那些与伊斯兰教有关的实践。
