Reading Religion and Spirituality in Jamaican Reggae Dancehall Dance: Spirit Bodies Moving de 'H' Patten

Reading Religion and Spirituality in Jamaican Reggae Dancehall Dance: Spirit Bodies Moving: Routledge Advances in Theatre & Performance Studies

Autor 'H' Patten
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 29 ian 2024
This book explores the genealogy of Jamaican dancehall while questioning whether dancehall has a spiritual underscoring, foregrounding dance, and cultural expression.
This study identifies the performance and performative (behavioural actions) that may be considered as representing spiritual ritual practices within the reggae/dancehall dance phenomenon. It does so by juxtaposing reggae/dancehall against Jamaican African/neo-African spiritual practices such as Jonkonnu masquerade, Revivalism and Kumina, alongside Christianity and post-modern holistic spiritual approaches.
This book will be of great interest to students and scholars in performance studies, popular culture, music, theology, cultural studies, Jamaican/Caribbean culture, and dance specialists.
