Rethinking Dance History: Issues and Methodologies de Larraine Nicholas

Rethinking Dance History: Issues and Methodologies

Editat de Larraine Nicholas, Geraldine Morris
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 21 iun 2017
The need to ‘rethink’ and question the nature of dance history has not diminished since the first edition of Rethinking Dance History. This revised second edition addresses the needs of an ever-evolving field, with new contributions considering the role of digital media in dance practice; the expansion of performance philosophy; and the increasing importance of practice-as-research. A two-part structure divides the book’s contributions into:
• Why Dance History? – the ideas, issues and key conversations that underpin any study of the history of theatrical dance.
• Researching and Writing – discussions of the methodologies and approaches behind any successful research in this area.
Everyone involved with dance creates and carries with them a history, and this volume explores the ways in which these histories might be used in performance-making – from memories which establish identity to re-invention or preservation through shared and personal heritages. Considering the potential significance of studying dance history for scholars, philosophers, choreographers, dancers and students alike, Rethinking Dance History is an essential starting point for anyone intrigued by the rich history and many directions of dance.

Descriere

The need to discuss, question and rethink dance history has not diminished in the decade since Rethinking Dance History first published.  Everyone involved with dance creates and carries with them a history, and this book explores the ways in which these histories can be used in making dance - from memories that establish identity and form resonances, to re-invention or preservation through shared and personal heritages. It also opens up the ways in which knowledge and understanding of dance history can be important for scholars, philosophers, choreographers, dancers and students. This is an essential starting point for anyone trying to analyse, explain or think about the history and directions of dance.
