Samenvatting
Anthology of dance-related personal and theoretical essays from a famous American dance critic written in the eighties and nineties for a variety of publications, mostly dance quarterlies as Dance View, Ballet Review etc. The author responds to and discusses issues raised by visiting ballet, modern dance and non-Western dance performances mostly in the East Coast of the United States. The essays examine amongst others the subject of gender and sexuality in dance-performances, the Western interest in non-Western dance, the development of a classical style in the works of modern choreographic masters as George Balanchine, Martha Graham and Merce Cunningham, the relationship to the audience and the problem of textlessness in dance. |
