Writing in Motion: Body--Language--Technology
ISBN: 9780819566140 / Angielski / Miękka / 224 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Kenneth King is one of America's most inventive postmodern choreographers. His dancing has always reflected his interest in language and technology, combining movement with film, machines, lighting and words both spoken and written. King is also conversant in philosophy, and some of his most influential dances have been dedicated to and in dialogue with the work of such philosophers as Susanne K. Langer, Edmund Husserl and Friedrich Nietzsche. Since the 1960s, he has performed his dance to texts both spoken and prerecorded--texts intended to stand separately as literary works. Writing in...

Meaning in Motion: New Cultural Studies of Dance
ISBN: 9780822319368 / Angielski / Twarda / 408 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Dance, whether considered as an art form or embodied social practice, as product or process, is a prime subject for cultural analysis. Yet only recently have studies of dance become concerned with the ideological, theoretical, and social meanings of dance practices, performances, and institutions. In "Meaning in Motion," Jane C. Desmond brings together the work of critics who have ventured into the boundaries between dance and cultural studies, and thus maps a little-known and rarely explored critical site.
Writing from a broad range of perspectives, contributors from disciplines as varied... Dance, whether considered as an art form or embodied social practice, as product or process, is a prime subject for cultural analysis. Yet only recent...

Katrina Hazzard-Gordon offers the first analysis of the development of the jook--an underground cultural institution created by the black working class--together with other dance arenas in African-American culture.

For the advanced teacher, "How can I encourage initiative and make students more self-motivated?" . For the college or...

Sur quel pied danser? : Danse et litterature
ISBN: 9789042016088 / Angielski / Miękka / 330 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. La danse a inspire la litterature, et la litterature a inspire la danse. Mais comment fonctionne exactement l'articulation entre les deux, et quelles sont les consequences de leur reciprocite ? Cet ouvrage analyse ce lien depuis la Renaissance jusqu'a l'epoque moderne, de d'Aubigne a Francis Ponge, de la danse macabre a la theorie de Laban. La relation entre danse et litterature est variable : parfois elle se fonde sur un principe esthetique, parfois sur un principe thematique, ou bien sociologique. Quelque soit la nature de ce rapport, ce livre demontre qu'il est durable et riche de sens....

Dancing Fear and Desire: Race, Sexuality, and Imperial Politics in Middle Eastern Dance
ISBN: 9780889204546 / Angielski / Miękka / 264 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Throughout centuries of European colonial domination, the bodies of Middle Eastern dancers, male and female, move sumptuously and seductively across the pages of Western travel journals, evoking desire and derision, admiration and disdain, allure and revulsion. This profound ambivalence forms the axis of an investigation into Middle Eastern dance--an investigation that extends to contemporary belly dance. Stavros Stavrou Karayanni, through historical investigation, theoretical analysis, and personal reflection, explores how Middle Eastern dance actively engages race, sex, and...
