heritage approach

Before I set out my recommendations I want to address the vital question of language. There is a fundamental mismatch between the way we talk about culture and the values we attach to it. The language we use has become tainted and the terms we use – ‘art for art’s sake’, ‘the right to fail’, ‘risk’, ‘innovation’, let alone ‘excellence’ – have all acquired accretions of meaning in recent years that have blunted or distorted what we want to say. Excellence itself is sometimes dismissed as an exclusive, canonical and ‘heritage’ approach to cultural activity. I refute this. We need to be clear from the outset what we mean when we say ‘excellence’, ‘innovation’ and ‘risk-taking’.

Heritage vs avantgarde/experimentation /innovation
Despite its innate theatricality, puppetry has always retained a Janus-like quality to its character, straddling practices of both performance and design/making, and this duality between materiality and ephemera is intertwined with the question of its status between heritage and the avant-garde.
Yet to separate a ‘heritage’ approach from an experimental one in puppet theatre is in many respects a false distinction.

1) potresti puntare sul significato di "non spontaneo", "non naturale", ovvero "costruito" attraverso gli anni... ti pare possa andare? o un sinonimo di questi...

mi pare che tradizionale sia positivo, come significato, mentre esclusivo e canonico li usa in senso negativo... no?

sì, è vero, ma secondo me andrebbe sottolineato di più... non so, forse l'idea di antarie rende bene... un po' azzardata, ma centrata, credo

riservato a pochi
Parto dal presupposto che:
her·it·age – noun
1. something that comes or belongs to one by reason of birth; an inherited lot or portion: a heritage of poverty and suffering; a national heritage of honor, pride, and courage.
2. something reserved for one: the heritage of the righteous.
3. Law.
a. something that has been or may be inherited by legal descent or succession.
b. any property, esp. land, that devolves by right of inheritance.
...quindi, se è un "diritto di nascita" è anche riservato a pochi eletti. Un pò come "exclusive", insomma.

approccio... e di retaggio
con valenza negativa, di cioè che si eredita anche non volendolo.
Ci vorrebbe l'aggettivo corrispondente ma o non esiste o è ora che io mi tolga da davanti a 'sto pc ;-)

approccio patrimoniale
Heritage in Italian is patrimony - the richness and belongings of a culture.

: In italiano "patrimoniale" si usa solo in campo giuridico, non significa nulla in questo contesto. Come aggettivo si riferisce solo a un "patrimonio economico", non culturale.

elitario, canonico e atavico approccio
Credo che la parola "Atavico" renda al meglio la connotazione negativa insita nel testo.

Atavico, per l'appunto, come opposto di avanguardia, spontaneità, trasgressione. Atavico è ciò che ereditiamo geneticamente, come il nostro "modo di porsi alle attività culturali".(CFR text)
