Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dance Research Methodologies: Ethics, Orientations, and Practices captures the breadth of methodological approaches to research in dance in the fine arts, the humanities, the social sciences, and the natural sciences by bringing together researchers from around the world writing about a variety of dance forms and practices. This book makes explicit the implicit skills and experiences at work in the research processes by detailing the ethics, orientations, and practices fundamental to being a researcher across the disciplines of dance. Collating together approaches from key subdisciplines, this book brings together perspectives on dance practice, dance studies, dance education, dance science, as well as dance research in cross-, multi-, and interdisciplinary fields. Practice-based chapters cover methodological approaches that provide rich examples of how research design and implementation are navigated by practicing scholars. Dance Research Methodologies also includes a practical workbook that helps readers to decide upon, refine, and enact their research, as well as develop ways in which to communicate their process and outcomes. This vital textbook is a valuable resource for research faculty interested in interdisciplinary conversation and practice, emerging scholars honing their methodological approaches, graduate students engaged in research-based coursework and projects, and advanced undergraduates.

Book Dance on the Historically Black College Campus

Download or read book Dance on the Historically Black College Campus written by Wanda K. W. Ebright and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2019-11-11 with total page 142 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume explores the history of dance on the historically black college and university (HBCU) campus, casting a first light on the historical practices and current state of college dance program practice in HBCUs. The author addresses how HBCU dance programs developed their institutional visions and missions in a manner that offers students an experience of American higher education in dance, while honoring how the African diaspora persists in and through these experiences. Chapters illustrate how both Western and African diaspora dances have persisted, integrated through curriculum and practice, and present a model for culturally inclusive histories, traditions, and practices that reflect Western and African diasporas in ongoing dialogue and negotiation on the HBCU campus today.

Book Ukrainian Dance

    Book Details:
  • Author : Andriy Nahachewsky
  • Publisher : McFarland
  • Release : 2011-11-16
  • ISBN : 0786487062
  • Pages : 276 pages

Download or read book Ukrainian Dance written by Andriy Nahachewsky and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2011-11-16 with total page 276 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ukrainian dance is remarkably enduring in its popularity and still performed in numerous cultural contexts. This text unpacks the complex world of this ethnic dance, with special attention to the differences between vival dance (which requires being fully engaged in the present moment) and reflective dance (dance connected explicitly to the past). Most Ukrainian vival dances have been performed by peasants in traditional village settings, for recreational and ritual purposes. Reflective Ukrainian dances are performed more self-consciously as part of a living heritage. Further sub-groups are examined, including national dances, recreational/educational dances, and spectacular dances on stage.

Book Movable Pillars

    Book Details:
  • Author : Katja Kolcio
  • Publisher : Wesleyan University Press
  • Release : 2010-03-01
  • ISBN : 0819569658
  • Pages : 240 pages

Download or read book Movable Pillars written by Katja Kolcio and published by Wesleyan University Press. This book was released on 2010-03-01 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Movable Pillars traces the development of dance as scholarly inquiry over the course of the 20th century, and describes the social-political factors that facilitated a surge of interest in dance research in the period following World War II. This surge was reflected in the emergence of six key dance organizations: the American Dance Guild, the Congress on Research in Dance, the American Dance Therapy Association, the American College Dance Festival Association, the Dance Critics Association, and the Society of Dance History Scholars. Kolcio argues that their founding between the years 1956 and 1978 marked a new period of collective action in dance and is directly related to the inclusion of moving bodies in scholarly research and the ways in which dance studies interfaces with other fields such as feminist studies, critical research methods, and emancipatory education. An impeccable work of archival scholarship and interpretive history, Movable Pillars features nineteen interviews with dance luminaries who were intimately involved in the early years of each group. This is the first book to focus on the founding of these professional organizations and constitutes a major contribution to the understanding of the development of dance in American higher education.

Book excerpt: The study centres on the subject of Dance in West Africa, namely a dance of the Ewe in Southern Ghana.

Book Dancing Archives   Archive Dances

Download or read book Dancing Archives Archive Dances written by Thom Hecht and published by transcript Verlag. This book was released on 2014-03-31 with total page 209 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents the first in-depth archival exploration of a lost history of dance as an extracurricular activity at Radcliffe College, the women's liberal arts college of Harvard University, during the first half of twentieth century. Using archival story-ing, an innovative methodology that brings the researcher's lived experience at the Radcliffe College Archives into the historical discourse, three archive stories were created. These vivid narratives thrive in the researcher's personal encounters with the surroundings of the archive and the interpretation and reading of what is to be found giving profound insights into what it means to walk in the footsteps of Radcliffe dance history.

  • ISBN :
  • Pages : 228 pages

Download or read book Dancing the Data written by Carl Bagley and published by Peter Lang Incorporated, International Academic Publishers. This book was released on 2002 with total page 228 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dancing the Data and its interrelated CD-ROM, Dancing the Data Too, show the ways in which educational research and the visual and performing arts can embrace each other to engender a culture of feeling and meaning and in so doing evoke new ways of knowing, learning, and teaching. It draws on the artistic mediums of dance, collage, poetry, music, and drama and invites the reader to engage with the educational research endeavors of the contributors as they seek to move beyond the traditions of established approaches to represent and reflect on their work in artistic forms. Dancing the Data seeks to open up conversational beginnings with teachers, researchers, and students, and to tempt them to discuss and reflect on the ways in which established methodological and pedagogical boundaries might be crossed and new ways of seeing and doing valued and explored.
