Download or read book Dance by the Canal written by Kerstin Hensel and published by Peirene Press. This book was released on 2017-09-18 with total page 105 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A tragicomic satire from the heart of East Germany. Gabriela grows up in the East German town of Leibnitz. Her father is a famous surgeon, her mother a respected society hostess. The girl, however, struggles to fulfil their expectations. She shows no talent as a violinist and, worse, she fails to choose the right friends at school. When her father falls out of favour with the communists, Gabriela drops out of school. Eventually she ends up living beneath a canal bridge. Then the Wall falls. Can Gabriela seize a second chance in the new, united, Germany? Why Peirene chose to publish this book: 'When I pass homeless women, I look into their faces and wonder: why her and not me? I sense that maybe our differences are not as great as I would like to believe. Dance by the Canal tells the story of a woman who fails to find her place in society - neither in communist GDR nor in the capitalist West. Her refusal to conform to the patriarchal structures of both societies forces her into ever-increasing isolation. This book will make you think.' Meike Ziervogel, publisher at Peirene Press 'An intense story... grotesque, macabre, poetic.' Neues Deutschland 'An authentic story of East Germany.' Die Ost-West-Wochenzeitung '30 years of East German history narrated with laconic irony.' Die Zeit

Book The Erie Canal Sings

Download or read book The Erie Canal Sings written by Bill Hullfish and published by Arcadia Publishing. This book was released on 2019-06-17 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Life working along the banks of the Erie Canal is preserved in the songs of America's rich musical history. Thomas Allen's "Low Bridge, Everybody Down" has achieved iconic status in the American songbook, but its true story has never been told until now. Erie songs such as "The E-ri-e Is a-Risin'" would transform into "The C&O Is a-Risin'" as the song culture spread among a network of other canals, including the Chesapeake and Ohio and the Pennsylvania Main Line. As motors replaced mules and railroads emerged, the canal song tradition continued on Broadway stages and in folk music recordings. Author Bill Hullfish takes readers on a musical journey along New York's historic Erie Canal.

Book Lamb at the Altar

    Book Details:
  • Author : Deborah Hay
  • Publisher : Duke University Press
  • Release : 1994
  • ISBN : 9780822314394
  • Pages : 140 pages

Download or read book Lamb at the Altar written by Deborah Hay and published by Duke University Press. This book was released on 1994 with total page 140 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The intention of my work is to dislodge assumptions about the fixity of the three-dimensional body."--Deborah Hay Her movements are uncharacteristic, her words subversive, her dances unlike anything done before--and this is the story of how it all works. A founding member of the famed Judson Dance Theater and a past performer in the Merce Cunningham Dance Company, Deborah Hay is well known for choreographing works using large groups of trained and untrained dancers whose surprising combinations test the limits of the art. Lamb at the Altar is Hay's account of a four-month seminar on movement and performance held in Austin, Texas, in 1991. There, forty-four trained and untrained dancers became the human laboratory for Hay's creation of the dance Lamb, lamb, lamb . . . , a work that she later distilled into an evening-length solo piece, Lamb at the Altar. In her book, in part a reflection on her life as a dancer and choreographer, Hay tells how this dance came to be. She includes a movement libretto (a prose dance score) and numerous photographs by Phyllis Liedeker documenting the dance's four-month emergence. In an original style that has marked her teaching and writing, Hay describes her thoughts as the dance progresses, commenting on the process and on the work itself, and ultimately creating a remarkable document on the movements--precise and mysterious, mental and physical--that go into the making of a dance. Having replaced traditional movement technique with a form she calls a performance meditation practice, Hay describes how dance is enlivened, as is each living moment, by the perception of dying and then involves a freeing of this perception from emotional, psychological, clinical, and cultural attitudes into movement. Lamb at the Altar tells the story of this process as specifically practiced in the creation of a single piece.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This superbly illustrated book provides a comprehensive overview of guided endodontics, a technology-driven, contemporary treatment approach that represents a paradigm shift in endodontics. Guided endodontics is now the proven, safe, predictable and, clinically, the most effective method for management of calcified root canals and root-end resection surgeries. This book covers detailed step-by-step digital treatment planning and the clinical application of static guides and dynamic navigation systems for, both, surgical and non-surgical endodontic treatment. In essence, this novel technology utilizes preoperative CBCT scans and intra-oral 3D scans as well as uniquely developed special software, for virtual planning of the endodontic treatment. This book delineates 3D printing, CBCT, digital impression systems, static guide designing with different software and clinical application of static and dynamic navigation in endodontics and much more. The concluding chapter addresses the future trends in 3D guidance in endodontics, in particular, and dentistry in general.

  • Author : Melanie Kloetzel

  • Pages : 471 pages

Download or read book Site Dance written by Melanie Kloetzel and published by University Press of Florida. This book was released on 2013-03-27 with total page 471 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In recent years, site-specific dance has grown in popularity. In the wake of groundbreaking work by choreographers who left traditional performance spaces for other venues, more and more performances are cropping up on skyscrapers, in alleyways, on trains, on the decks of aircraft carriers, and in a myriad of other unexpected locations worldwide. In Site Dance, the first anthology to examine site-specific dance, editors Melanie Kloetzel and Carolyn Pavlik explore the work that choreographers create for nontraditional performance spaces and the thinking behind their creative choices. Combining interviews with and essays by some of the most prominent and influential practitioners of site dance, they look at the challenges and rewards of embracing alternative spaces. The close examinations of the work of artists like Meredith Monk, Joanna Haigood, Stephan Koplowitz, Heidi Duckler, Ann Carlson, and Eiko Otake provide important insights into why choreographers leave the theatre to embrace the challenges of unconventional venues. Site Dance also includes more than 80 photographs of site-specific performances, revealing how the arts, and movement in particular, can become part of and speak to our everyday lives. Celebrating the often unexpected beauty and juxtapositions created by site dance, the book is essential reading for anyone curious about the way that these choreographers are changing our experience of the world one step at a time.
