CHAPTER ONE: LIVING THROUGH DRAMA ———<~o»—___ The phrase ‘Living Through Drama’ does not have a Hungarian translation. One reason for this is that it has not been part of the most accepted Hungarian drama teacher training course,” founded by Laszlö Kaposi. This course and its founder defined the established practice of drama in education and offered the model for other courses that prepared drama teachers in Hungary. The approach represented by Kaposi was reinforced through publications” of volumes of lesson plans for different age-groups and more importantly the ‘Drämapedagögiai olvasökönyv’” [Dramapedagogy Reader] which remains the most concise collection of writings published in Hungarian. The spine of my copy of this book is broken due to overuse at the collection of Jonothan Neelands’ conventions, the forms that the drama teacher can use to structure lessons. Though the first English language publication" of the conventions is accompanied by almost thirty pages of theory to help structuring lessons, the Hungarian Reader does not contain this. The predominantly methodological line of Kaposi’s drama approach is the most conspicuously visible in how Dorothy Heathcote’s seminal writing titled Signs and Portents* is published in the Reader; while the list of 33 forms she offers are there, the theoretical grounding and analysis of the use of sign in theatre and drama, Heathcote’s definition of the three major components of drama was never published in Hungarian.
