Dance and Stillness, A danced inquiry to the experience of stillness: A phenomenological hermeneutic inquiry into the experience of stillness - Presented … of dance performance and written exegesis

2009 y.
Publisher: —
Description: We explore the subject of stillness: specifically the stillness that occurs in the midst of movement, turbulence or chaos. It is found in the midst of movement - it can also be conceived as that which frames, or holds all movement. A principal focus is to distinguish the therapeutic value of this stillness. A Christo-centric philosophy and worldview are ground to the work and the research methodology is hermeneutic phenomenology. Within this framework a choreographed dance work and written exegesis are equal parts of the whole. The choreography for the dance work employs a neo-classical-contemporary technique particular to the choreographer. The dance work was choreographed on and presented by four dancers. These four dancers and four re the research participants. As the dance work evolved it was presented ?in process? and the participants interviewed subsequent to the showings. Information was sought about the essence of the danced/watched experience, with… [detailed...]

Dance, Drugs, and Escape: The Club Scene in Literature, Film and Television Since the Late 1980`s

2007 y.
Publisher: McFarland &, Company
Description: In the late 1980s the rave phenomenon swept the youth culture of the United Kingdom, incorporating the generations` two newest social stimulants: modern electronic dance music and a notorious designer drug known as Ecstasy. Although the movement began in rebellion against mainstream culture, its underground dynamism soon attracted the interest of novelists, screenwriters, and filmmakers who attempted to reflect the phenomenon in their works. Through artistic and commercial popularization, the once obscure subculture was transformed into a pop-culture behemoth with powerful links to the entertainment industry. This study deals with the transformative effects of film, television and literature on club culture. Chapters furthermore reflect club culture`s own effect on crime, ethnicity, sexuality and drug use. As the study traces artistic depictions of club culture`s development, each chapter focuses on individual books, films and television shows that reflect the transformation… [detailed...]

Colum McCann
Dancer: A Novel

2004 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Taking his inspiration from biographical facts, novelist Colum McCann tells the erotically charged story of the Russian dancer Rudolf Nureyev through the cast of those who knew him: there is Anna Vasileva, Rudi`s first ballet teacher, who rescues her protA©gA© from the stunted life of his provincial town, Yulia, whose sexual and artistic ambitions are thwarted by her Soviet-sanctioned marriage, and Victor, the Venezuelan street hustler, who reveals the lurid underside of the gay celebrity set. Spanning four decades and many worlds, from the horrors of the Second World War to the wild abandon of New York in the eighties, Dancer is peopled by a large cast of characters, obscure and famous: doormen and shoemakers, nurses and translators, Margot Fonteyn, Eric Bruhn and John Lennon. And at the heart of the spectacle stands the artist himself, willful, lustful, and driven by a never-to-be-met need for perfection. [detailed...]

The Tewas have become increasingly sophisticated in managing tourism, including their new casinos, to ensure thatit contributes to the persistence and revitalization of ancient ritual practices.

Dances with Darwin, 18751910

2009 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Examining the extraordinary influence of Darwin`s theory of evolution on French thought from 1875 to 1910, Rae Beth Gordon argues for a reconsideration of modernism both in time and in place that situates its beginnings in the French cafe-concert aesthetic. Gordon weaves the history of medical science, ethnology, and popular culture into a groundbreaking exploration of the cultural implications of gesture in dance performances at late-nineteenth-century Parisian cafe-concerts and music halls.While art historians have studied the ties between primitivism and modernism, their convergence in fin-de-siecle popular entertainment has been largely overlooked. Gordon argues that while the impact of Darwinism was unprecedented in science, it was no less present in popular culture through the popular press and popular entertainment, where it constituted a kind of `evolutionist aesthetic` on display in the cafe-concert, circus, and music-hall as well as in the spectator`s reception of the… [detailed...]

Description: Winner of the Book of the Year Award from the Ethnography Division of the National Communication Association 2008! Dancing Communities is a landmark volume in dance scholarship, and examines performances that create urban communities by blurring, or reinforcing, complex cultural and ethnic boundaries. It argues that amateur and concert dance practices are laboratories for examining the myriad complex intersections of gender, sexuality, class, ethnicity and culture. In the five sites examined here, dance creates small and generative worlds: sometimes havens, sometimes hauntopias. The everyday labors and final products of dance in the global city offer intimacy, solidarity, and communal and cultural continuity for performers and audiences. [detailed...]

Dancing Identity: Metaphysics in Motion

2004 y.

Description: Book DescriptionAccording to renowned performer, teacher, and dance scholar Sondra Fraleigh, `to value dance at all is to value the human, the beautiful, and the playful amid the erotic pulse of life. Dancing gives us the forms of our mind in movement, and it teaches us how to reconnect with our emotions, living them over again, sweeping clean their cellular foundations.` Dancing Identity, her latest book, is a celebratory fusion of philosophy and movement. Combining critical analysis with personal history and poetry, Fraleigh presents a series of interconnected essays composed over a period of fifteen years. Taken as a whole, these meditative reflections on the ways we perceive and construct our lives represent a journey toward self-definition informed by art, ritual, feminism, phenomenology, poetry, autobiography, and-always-dance. While aesthetic discourse is often dissociated from lived experience, Dancing Identity examines dance as an inherently gendered reality and exposes… [detailed...]
