In City Folk, Daniel J. Walkowitz argues that the history of country and folk dancing in America is deeply intermeshed with that of political liberalism and the 'old left.' He situates folk dancing within surprisingly diverse contexts, from progressive...

ISBN: 9781845455903 / Angielski / Miękka / 184 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych.

The performances that author Monika Winarnita analyzes are dramas of human interaction brought up through fissures and resolutions between the performers and their various audiences. The book provides analysis of these...
