Rhythm and Timing of Movement in Performance: Drama, Dance and Ceremony

Autor Janet Goodridge
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 28 feb 1999
Despite the richness of the subject and the importance frequently ascribed to the phenomena of rhythm and timing in the arts, the topic as a whole has been neglected. Janet Goodridge writes from a practical movement background and draws on a wide range of sources to illuminate the subject in relation to theatre, drama, dance, ceremony, and ritual.
