Abstract

Investigating place-based curriculum and embodied curriculum, the author uses playwriting to explore the body's relationship to land and food. This one-act play penetrates the writings of Ivan Illich, Wendell Berry, and others in an attempt to fictionally integrate conviviality with the modern/industrial life. This is an exploration of how our disconnectedness from the earth that characterizes our daily living and learning affects us bodily.
