Recenzje

Ruprecht's study of dance and gesture does not just draw on philosophy, principally the writings of Walter Benjamin, it comprises a brilliant study of the medium of dance while simultaneously making a profound contribution to both dance studies and the philosophy of art. This is a work to be celebrated.
