Abstract

Squaring the Circle. What is our knowledge of acting?

Or maybe we should not ask ourselves what, but where is our knowledge in relation to acting? Does it precede it or does it actually help us rediscover acting again and again?
If it precedes it, then knowledge shackles the acting. Because in this case, acting has to submit itself to this knowledge. We can do nothing more than what we know. In this case, our acting demonstrates our knowledge of it. And we do not move in any direction. But if it is the latter, then knowledge comes into existence after acting. And since knowledge always follows acting, it (the knowledge acquired so far) has to be ruled out before every practice, it has to be forgotten, otherwise we will face our own rigid limitations.
And then the question is not whether it is possible to acquire knowledge of acting (since it is possible because one can produce knowledge about everything), but how we relate to this knowledge? How can we get rid of this knowledge becoming conviction? Moreover: how is it possible to know when one does not know anything?
