Improvised Dance: (In)Corporeal Knowledges
Autor Nalina Waiten Limba Engleză Hardback – 14 apr 2023
Mobilising the languages and conceptual frameworks of theories of affect, embodied cognition, somatics, and dance, this book illustrates the work of specialist improvisers who occupy divergent positions within the complex field of improvised dance. It offers an alternative narrative of the history and current practice of Western improvised dance centred on the epistemology of its (in)corporeal knowledges, which are elusive yet vital to the refinement of expertise.
Written for both a disciplinary-specific and interdisciplinary audience, this book will interest dance scholars, students, and practising artists.

Recenzii
‘This is an impressive account of western improvised dance that remains loyal to the practice, while seeking to amplify its self-understanding. Wait's commitment to the concept of affect and its resonance runs through this book as a core principle, offering a basis for thinking through that which is distinctive about western improvised dance.’
Philipa Rothfield, honorary staff member in Philosophy and Politics at La Trobe University, Australia, and honorary professor in Dance and Philosophy of the Body at the University of Southern Denmark.
‘Wait embraces the complex field of contemporary, western improvised dance, in what I’d call a cartography, a genealogy, and an analysis of local practices or case studies. Through a major compilation of sources and authors, Wait offers alternative conceptual models to re-categorize practices and escape dualisms. This book makes an important contribution to dance studies.’
Isabelle Ginot, Professor in the Dance Department at Université Paris 8 – Vincennes-Saint-Denis, France.

Descriere
This book elucidates the technical aspects of improvised dance performance and reframes the notion of labour in the practice from one that is either based on compositionally formal logic or a mysterious impulse, to one that addresses the (in)corporeal dimensions of practice.
