Standing on the shoulders of giants: enduring praxis

Guest editors: Michael Anderson and Mary Mooney

This special edition of NJ will examine the enduring praxis and legacy of two significant scholars and practitioners to the growth and the development of the field of drama education and applied theatre/drama with specific reference to their impact on drama education and applied theatre in Australia and the Asia-Pacific. This edition of NJ is inspired by the untimely passing of Professor John Carroll and Professor Dorothy Heathcote and an enthusiasm to discuss how their intellectual restlessness contributed to the development and changes in the field. Papers are invited from authors who would like to celebrate and mark the work of John Carroll and/or Dorothy Heathcote, their development of new knowledge and how this has implications for the future of the field. Contributions may reflect on John Carroll's and Dorothy Heathcote's work together or their individual work as scholars and practitioners.
