ABSTRACT This paper presents the results of an interdisciplinary project in which English poetry and performance studies were integrated into a poetry performance project for EFL students in a language education programme at a Japanese university. The project used the theories and methods of Butо̄, a contemporary Japanese form of dance and visual art, to guide students through the process of interpretation, journaling, rehearsal, and performance. In Notational Butо̄ practice, performers begin with a piece of literary or visual art, observe the images that stand out most to the performer, make notes about those images’ qualities in a journal, and then reflect on the movement. Our students followed a similar process, accompanied with vocal work, as they memorised excerpts from English poetry. We found that the project helped students create personal connections with the literature and more fully integrate foreign culture experiences into their identity as Japanese speakers of English.

物理诗歌：在EFL诗歌表演项目中使用日语Butо̄

摘要 本文介绍了一个跨学科项目的结果，在该项目中，英语诗歌和表演研究被整合到日本大学语言教育项目中的英语诗歌表演项目中。该项目使用 Butо̄ 的理论和方法，一种当代日本舞蹈和视觉艺术形式，引导学生完成解释、记录、排练和表演的过程。在 Notational Butо̄ 练习中，表演者从一件文学或视觉艺术开始，观察表演者最突出的图像，在日记中记录这些图像的品质，然后反思运动。我们的学生遵循类似的过程，伴随着声乐，背诵英国诗歌的节选。
