Philosophy as Drama: Deleuze and Dramatization in the Context of Performance Philosophy
Bibliographic record
Abstract
ABSTRACT: This article draws from Gilles Deleuze’s concept of “the method of dramatization” as well as his wider engagement both with dramatic plays, to explore the idea of philosophy as drama, and indeed, with drama or dramatization as a vital new form of philosophy. Here, we see how Deleuze’s concept of dramatization invites us to think of philosophical texts as stage directions and philosophical concepts as characters waiting to be played anew in specific contexts. In turn, we see how dramatization allows Deleuze to construe both concepts and characters, not as fixed essences, but as individuals arising from a drama of relations. The discussion is placed in the context of recent debates in the emerging field of performance philosophy as to what extent philosophy and performance should be considered separate endeavours.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
