Dancing Bodies, Living Histories: New Writings about Dance and Culture
Editorial Reviews
Book Description
Contributed by scholars and artists from across North America brought together to think through crucial aspects of dance's significance, twelve papers stage a set of illuminating connections between cultural theory and dancing practices, examining the body in an exhilarating range of performances. The essays interrogate choreography as a theorizing of identity - racial, gendered, and classed - and it elucidates power relations within and surrounding dancing. An international readership in dance studies and histories of the body is addressed by linking the study of dance to other academic fields, such as history, anthropology, aesthetics, sociology, Aboriginal studies, culture studies, film and queer studies.
