Full textThis thesis looks at Cambodian court dance, not only as a social production but also though its aesthetic and its technical aspects. Originally a feminine ritual practice from the court, this kind of dance also named "Khmer classical dance" is now being taught in astate institutionalised context. Over the past decade, it has also been performed in touristic and humanitarian settings by dance troupes mainly made up of young people from disadvantaged backgrounds. International tours and Cambodian associations of the diaspora also contributed to export court dance outside of Cambodian borders. Based on these observations, the thesis questions the conditions in which danced knowledge is nowadays embodied outside of the court, thus highlighting the present role of both dance and dancers. It turns out that, in the various conexts where it now exists, court dance does not only appear as a visible symbol of Cambodian identity. In some settings, it is still considered as ritually efficient, especially inside the Ministry of Culture and Fine Arts. There, apprenticeship proves to be particularly rigirous and is still regulated by ceremonies aiming to update the existing link between passed generations and current masters and students. Dancers, whose body and spirit are shaoped by dance, incarnate exemplary Khmer women in an ethnonational frame where monarchy remains a social referent. In addition, some dancers are claiming a new status as artist by developing self-expression through dance in continuity or, for a few of them, by breaking up with monarchical and state referents

Full textThe purpose of the dissertation is to bring out the meaning of the ballerina. It analyses the part taken by the learning of classical dance all along the feminine route. The heroine of romantic ballets is a young girl who becomes a sort of ghost for having not been able to get married. The training of the ballet dancers oblige them to "incorporate" this image. Another feminine character who succeeded in getting married can be seen in ballets : the red girl. Some ballet dancers have always been blanck dancers either on stage or in life; someothers have given up their professions, embodied from turn to turn by the blanck girl and the red girl or have performed other types of dances. The young girls who practice ballet dancing as amateurs usually will give up classical ballet dances when they are teen agers to shift to "modern" or "exotic" dances. The classical ballet-dance appears to be a stage in the initiation of girls which has to be overstepped in order for them to become women

Full textAt the end of the 19th century, dancing becomes a favourite subject of representation in european literature. Dancers play important, sometimes essential parts in poems, novels and innumberable short stories. For writers, they become a literary stake, and for today's critic, they have an heuristic value. Their art of suggestive silence submits them to free interpretaion, and they summon naturalists, symbolists and decadents to disclose their positions. But in closely considering the texts, those categories, which history of literature has traditionnaly distinguished, appear fluctuating. As studied through the problems of dancing and ballet in literature, they can be put in question : the works of many writers reveal that naturalism, symbolism and decadence may coexist at the end of the century. The intimate coherence of the fin-de-siecle imagination in its relation to dancing thus lies beyond literary movements : in an axious questionnin g of writing and language, whose very conditions of existence are henceforth called in question. As a language without words, as a writing without traces, dancing is, in the melancholic and crepuscular imagination of the fin-de-siecle, the subject of a reflection about the uncertain future of literature

Full textThis dissertation studies the practice of classical ballet in the inner suburbs of Paris, based on a fieldwork in twelve suburban municipalities, all of which have dance conservatories. In these structures, classical dance is taught to a young (12-25 years old), white, predominantly female, middle-class public. These young women and their practices are the focus of the thesis. To ‘be placed' in the vocabulary of dance is to be in the right place at the right time to perform the right position. In geography, the rhetoric of placement and the expression "being at one's place" refer to the tactics of individuals and social groups in space. Using dance as a starting point, my thesis interrogates the metaphor of 'self-placement' to reveal the way in which dancers appropriate space and the way in which they perceive the legitimacy of their presence and their body. This work questions the centre-periphery dialectic between Paris and its suburbs, in order to identify the hierarchies and tensions that lead bodies to be "In place" or "Out of place" (Cresswell, 1996) in ballet. Using an intersectional approach, the thesis highlights the spatial dimension of cultural distinction and what placement strategies reveal about gender, class and race relations in the experience of the Parisian suburbs. By focusing on the urban and artistic experiences of young women, the aim is to deconstruct the exotic and all-encompassing vision of 'the suburbs', but also to question the construction of respectability and carrier in dance. Based on a corpus of 77 interviews, 42 participant observation sessions in dance classes, 20 mental maps and an internship in a dance conservatory, this dissertation analyzes dance practices at several scales, from the dance studio to the international stage, by placing the focus on young women

The 1922 edition which is expurgated is studied in order to find the parts disappeared. The second part of the thesis shows what Roland Meyer wrote about the relations between parents and children, about children education and also the relations between husband and wives and the social life. Roland Meyer gives in his novel a good picture of Cambodian education even if the personality of the two heroes, Saramani and Komlah, is slightly too romantic

Full textThe aim of this work has been to deepen the knowledge about the choices spontaneously made by humans in order to realize simple locomotor tasks, with a focus on the pedaling movement. The analysis of the spontaneous transition from the seated to the standing position in cycling was the main topic of this thesis. Little studied in comparison to the walk-run transition, this transition is of interest given the possibilities to constrain the pedaling movement, and because of its abrupt nature making easier the identification of the criteria optimized in the movement. The combination of full-body kinematics, electromyography, inverse dynamics, and the measure of the efforts applied on each of the cyclist's supports on a fully instrumented cycling-ergometer offered a new perspective on the pedaling movement. These methods provide new leads to understand the spontaneous choices made in order to pedal under increasing power-output constraints
Despres, Altaïr. "Se faire contemporain : les danseurs africains à l'épreuve de la mondialisation culturelle." Paris 7, 2012. http://www.theses.fr/2012PA070029.
Full textCultural globalization considered as a conjunction of substantial practices rather than a uniform and unrestrained phenomenon, raises the problem of the emergence of transnational social spaces and the production, in a global scale, of persons, activities and specific interests. This research deals with this question starting with the case of african contemporary dance seen as a deployment in the South of a symbolic economy first structured in the North. Combining different methods of investigation - multisited ethnography (Mali, Burkina Faso, Tunisia, France), interviews, archives - the analysis first establishes the role of cooperation policies as well as artistic issues in the emergence of a franco-african choreographic space. The thesis then focuses on the trajectory of the concerned dancers, often born in poor families, from their unlikely engagement in contemporary dance, to their potential insertion in the international choreographic market, and their learning of codes which are inseparably aesthetic and moral. It appears that the interest for a foreign art practice can arise and perpetuate in relation to local extra-artistic issues: research for economic remuneration and international migration among others. The last part of the thesis, based on a participant observation in a contemporary dance company, shows that the integration of african creation in the field of contemporary art depends as much on the internalization of its aesthetic norms as on the staging of cultural symbols perceived as peculiar to Africa

Full textIn the Peruvian capital, the Ayacuchano migrants‟ life is still governed by the rhythm of three dances even if their performances have undergone radical changes in their circumstances. They are competition dances restricted to specialist dancers, i.e. the scissors dance, the huaylías‟ dance and the dance of the negritos de cinta. In the sierra villages, these expressions represent genuine rituals which lie deep within the community‟s socio-religious relationships: they are their symbols but they also participate in renewing and ensuring their equilibrium. Being combined with following actions at an agricultural level, this activity contributes to uniting the community and securing its perpetuation while taking into account changes and evolutions. This role is backed up by musical-choreographic patterns since these patterns leave significant room for interpretation and encourage variations and creation. Thus the artists who are real connoisseurs of social practices present a reflection of society in what they dance or perform. As for audiences, they control the latest elements both during the performance and within the different memories built around dances. In fact the Lima milieu essentially provides innovation and the sierra environment ratifies it. The three dances also have a similar influence at a social level: they favour some independence between the migrant environment and the villages while preserving a unity of the community outside a physical territory. Consequently in spite of migration, their role has not really changed; it has simply adapted itself to the new situation

Full textThe objective of this thesis is to start from the observation of the sega dance to study the stakes of the memory and artistic appropriations of the colonial past in the Mauritian post-slavery society. The entry through dance was then heuristic to apprehend the popular culture of sega as a process. At different times in its history the requalification of the sega allowed to register this object in a culture sometimes considered as black, African, creole, multicultural, to attribute to it roots, and to direct the debates on the circulations and connections that surround this object, or to legitimize certain borrowings while accusing cultural appropriations. Absent from the global music or leisure market, it is in the form of the choreographic show that the sega circulates as a national standard, mainly on the tourist markets. The recent inscription of the traditional sega on the representative list of the ICH at UNESCO is part of these hegemonic forms of spectacularization and commercialization. The innovative nature of this research work was to examine the place of dancers – and especially women – which crystallizes the ambivalent reputation of sega, both denigrated and admired, and to show the challenges of requalification that focus on the spectacularization of this popular culture, revealing different power relations

Full textThis dissertation investigates the social practices whereby French young people of African and Caribbean background, both construct distinctive ethnic, racial and gendered identities, and acquire and negotiate power and prestige, in a context of unacknowledged structural racism. These young people often invest considerable time and energy in building status and esteem for themselves, among their peers and in society at large. Examining contemporary Black popular culture in public, private, and “virtual” settings, this dissertation focuses on the musical sociabilities of the afro scene, as they emerge in nightclubs, youth clubs, shopping malls, social media sites, homes and streets in the Paris region. The social practices and patterns of interaction of these young people attest not only to their versatility and ingenuity, but more importantly, to their ability to see themselves from another’s point of view. This refined interpersonal competence is made manifest through their capacity to draw from, and switch between, a multiplicity of cultural resources and behavioral styles. It is by means of social practices such as bluffing, flaunting or gossiping that young Black people, aiming to reconcile their individual ambitions with the constraints of a particularly intense relational life, acquire and negotiate personal standing

Full textThe present study aims to analyse personalization processes in the trajectories of 23 improvisational dancers. Improvised dance refers to intersubjective sharing (Bigé, 2015) and listening state (Guisgand, 2006): the development of this listening is studied here. Through its dimensions of uncertainty (Azaïs, Bachir-Loopuyt & Saint-Germier, 2010) and quest for freedom (Kintzler, 2006), improvisation combines with a personalization practice in reference to the theorizations of this process (Malrieu, 1979, 1994, 1995; Baubion-Broye, Dupuy & Prêteur, 2013). Semi-structured interviews were conducted. Two types of results analysis were used: thematic and through conceptualizing categories (Paillé & Mucchielli, 2012). These results highlight tensions, meaning activities and psychological reorganizations. Becoming aware of formatting, these dancers critically analyse their practises, in order not to repeat learned movements neither improvise without precise goal. The rejection of standard movements leads them to stand out through a personalizing process of creation. Some of them doubt about their ability or the ability of others to communicate, to interconnect. Those of them who are concerned with the lack of communication are trying to bring closer to others through danced improvisation : they cooperate. Cooperation makes them improve their listening and create spontaneously makes them centered on their bodies, which tends to consolidate their self-awareness. Creating their own movements and going beyond what they have learned feeds their need for overtaking and freedom.Through these processes of self-awareness and singularization, they personalize and build themselves

Full textThis research focuses on the writing practices of contemporary dancers, through the study of a corpus made up of four works recently published by Dominique Dupuy (2011), Enora Rivière (2013), Myriam Lefkowitz (2015), and Noé Soulier (2016). Their publication manifests as much as it participates in a perceptual and aesthetic context, but also an institutional and editorial one which gives place to the voice of the artists. Indeed, these texts have in common to be elaborated from the words of the dancers, whether it is collected during interviews, drawn from a lecture performed or whether it is the reason by which the feeling is experienced. imaginary of a choreographic immediacy. Thus, the elaboration of these works engages for their authors a reflection on the values acquired by the verbalization as by the scription in the practices of dance. Because writing is respected as a transversal process, not judged textual, which introduced effects of gap in the relationship that the dancer maintains to the act of dance, we summon to analyze this corpus the thought of Derrida; this leads us to qualify the phenomena of embeddedness and differance affected by this corpus as relevant to “dancers' writings”. This makes it possible to question the function of these discourses, translated as speaking out against the doxa of a silence inherent in the scenic figure of the dancer: on the one hand, the writing bears witness to the experiences specific to the profession of dancer, and contributes to nourishing or even renewing the representations relating to their artistic and professional status. On the other hand, the publication of a bookish object requalifies the authorship of the dancer with regard to the choreographer as the works he interprets : this contributes to circumscribing a specific discursive regime, which we designate, following Foucault, as a “dancer-function” active in writing. Finally, our analysis considers the interactions between the enunciation of the gesture and the linguistic imagination, when the lexical and body morphology come to merge. Following three theoretical propositions (Godfroy, Louppe, Bernard) which postulate the reversibility of kinesic and semiotic experiences, we question the activity of reception of these works, when the analyzes seek to decelerate the imprint of a "gestuality to say”. Our hypothesis considers that this stems from a fictional mechanism, deployed both in the sensory process by which the dancers adopt a word about their dance and in the reading activity. This underlines the empathic functioning that supports our frequentation of textualities in dance; about the place occupied by literary and scriptural imaginaries in the elaboration of narratives of gestures, as well as in the emergence of metaphorical dynamics. These require the development of bodily logics (Bolens) that shape the corporeality of the dancer who is expressed as much as the narrative modalities by requiring it to be written. This study takes place at the crossroads of concerns carried by kinesic and linguistic analyses, according to a poietic approach which fits into numerous disciplinary, artistic and methodological interactions between dance studies and literary studies

Full textThe aim of this study was to understand which elements induce postural adaptation during cycling propulsion and particularly during transition from the classical posture to the upright one. Lots of works investigate posture effect on cyclist performance. However, few studies interest in the upright posture utilization. In our knowledge, no studies clearly explain why cyclists change their posture from classical to upright when ergocycle's resistance becomes too high. Is this postural adaptation due to more force creation and/or to muscular economy? First, we have developed experimental devices allowing us to measure mechanical strain between cyclist and bicycle. We have studied mechanical and physiological parameters for each posture during power incremental test. Then, we have evaluated the more pertinent parameters influence on the transition trigger. Results show that upright posture allows musculoskeletal configuration favorable to the development of high power output. Using upright posture, absence of saddle support induces better postural adaptations to oppose to the ergocycle resistance increase. Power output growth is principally due to muscle strain increase. Electromyographic analysis shows that muscle activation is different between the two postures. In particular, biceps femoris is less activated in the upright posture in spite of the higher power output. The reduction of the duration and intensity of this muscle contraction permit to increase the rest phase. Better allocations of the effort between the muscles enable some of them to rest. This phenomenon of muscle economy could explain the transition from classical posture to the upright posture when power output get higher

Full textThis doctoral thesis in performing arts offers an approach to practice, discourse and representations around the notion of virtuosity in dancing. It looks into forms currently mutating on today’s choreographic and interdisciplinary stage, focusing on the way various performers incorporate virtuosic movement into their interpretation, at the juncture between the 20th and the 21st centuries. Observing the transfers taking place between disciplines, this research is built on a corpus of twelve performers: dancers, breakers and acrobats. The first stage of the approach was to make them describe the path they had followed, their working habits, their perception of a virtuosic move, and to make observations about the shows they take part in. This analysis is based on a corpus of productions (contemporary dance, contemporary circus, breakdance) and interviews presented in the appendix. Virtuosity is thus investigated from the point of view of the performer, considered inside a complex system and presented as a form of indiscipline. Based on a number of observations and methodologies specific to movement analysis and aesthetic analysis, this research proposes an exploration of the virtuosic movement with respect to certain transdisciplinary migrations and examines the questions of the presence and significance of new forms of virtuosity on the contemporary stage, in an attempt to redefine its terms and practices

Full textButoh avant-garde dance, as an art form originally emerged in Japan at the end of the 1950s, is a result of the crossover between avant-garde European artistic movements and Japanese popular scenic traditions. Until recent years, more widespread in western countries than in Japan itself, alternatively viewed either as a contemporary dance form or again as typical of Japanese art, Butoh has within the ten last years been subject to strong local reappraisal. Through an ethnography of a Butoh dance network based in Kyôto, this study aims to explore how, through their practices and in a context of globalization in Japan commonly associated with moral, social and economic crisis, the dancers make of the human body simultaneously the material, the instrument and the subjective locus of a transformation of the self and world. This study analyzes the constantly mobile intrications and interpretations of certain continuously recurrent notions : singularity, universality and japaneseness. Thus, one of the essential principles of Butoh, the “declining body”, formerly claimed in a spirit of protest against “modern capitalist society” has today morphed into a quasi-metaphor for a country in decline. This principle is tending to be superseded by yet another, a mobilization of the pelvis, indicating a rootedness of the body in the soil, associated by the dancers with Asian values. The study thus engages with the description of how, through their very gestures, the unceasing recreation of fundamental Butoh values underpins both aspirations for the transformation of the political arena and a supremely intimate questioning of the self, at the frontier between life and death

Full textThe market of "World Culture" allowed the emergence of a specific kind of spectacle, the ‘cham or "Sacred Dances of Tibet", representative of a culture subjected to serious sociopolitic and identical problems. After having penetrated in the universe of the monastery of Shechen, we apprehended the methods of teaching and transmission of the dances, and make their description. The two dances which are the subject of a choreographic analysis from a comparative point of view between the ritual shown in the monastery and its representation in the Theatre du Soleil were selected according to their spectacular and theatrical aspect which they offer to the eyes of a European observer. The study of this phenomenon enabled us to highlight a dynamic process of interaction between two communities gathered around the ‘cham. While looking at them, the spectators enter a development process cognitive where the imaginary one mixes with perceptive and conceptual one: the World of the Other

Full textIn Bolivia, the great celebration of Jesús del Gran Poder, mobilizes every year the entire city of La Paz. The morenada, main dance of this ritual, stages characters with black faces, wearing heavy, opulent and disproportionate costumes. These ostentatious body-objects are moved by the dancers, creating an intricate aesthetic of wealth and abundance. The morenada is performed by an urban population of artisans and traders of rural Aymara background. They painstakingly build the socio-economic success that allows them to establish themselves in town. Based upon an ethnography of the morenada dancers’ bodily practices, during the preparation and realization of their performance, this work intends to show that dance can be a powerfull tool for understanding how individual positions and collective identities are constantly reshaping. Indeed, in the space of morenada, economic, bodily and devotional beliefs and practices, interact to transform each other. At a broader scale, this work questions the way bodily and social dynamics contribute to invent a specific relationship to prosperity: dance is not only the expression of urban success, but its measure and condition

Moreover, we consider the aims of dance notation and reconstruction of the 19th-century repertoire

Full textThis thesis is about the "choreographic thought" and the specific knowledge which are shaped and passed to eachother by dancers through their practice. Choreographic practice is regarded as involving cognitive tools and cognitive functions, at different levels. These tools are stemming from the process of conceptualization, inherent in practicing. They are showing how choreographic experience is understood, represented and acted. "choreographic thought" is described as a "practical thought" shaping "artistic concepts". The study of these concepts is based on examples, which are extracted from situations of dancing or theories of dancers. Their are especially observed on their functional side, according to their practical finality. So, a single portrait of "choreographic concept" is drawn, it is a "fuzzy", "moving", "pragmatic" and "incorporated" concept. The cognitivist theories of knowledge and mind are abble to clarify this conceptual specificity as occuring on the basis of an experiencial continuum. Perceptive, motor and cognitive dimensions of choreographic experience are together involved through basic networks of categorization. That is why, it is necessary to envisage this experiencial continuum in order to understand, or to study the conceptualization of dancing by

Full textIn our countries, the dances still are a social must. In competition with different musical styles and discomobiles, they are evoluating like never before, announcing and ratifying the transformation of the relations to the country. Therefore this social and territorial movement is opening up to other social spaces and territorial referencies and to their geographical dispersal, the dancers still continue to mobilize the same dancing-areas. It is because their private relationships couldn't exist, be reproduced and blossom out anywhere : the choice of a location for a danse gathering couldn't arbitrary. According to this paradox, this research analysis the dancing areas into their mediating territorial fonction. As an original relationship to space and alterity, this transitional territoriality isn't found on the classical opposition (inside/outside, here/there, interior/exterior) but raises again a complementary between the private and the ± secrecy α. When the privacy caracterise the social and spatial proximitu scales, defining a matrix territoriality, the ± secrecy α results of the historical extension of the life's spaces. Regarding to our study territories, the transitional territoriality doesn't generate the same entities. In the Western part of Gers and in Haute-Vienne, the dancers assert a capacity to reinforce a certain matrix territoriality. In the Eastern part of Gers and in the Tarn, the social and spatial dancers' references seems to be more homogeneous and coordinated. As a last resort, the transitional territoriality brings to light some explaination's elements about a largeous movement of recomposition of the rural territories

Full textIn this study an attempt has been made to consider Tunisian traditional and popular dancing, both in its sacred and profane milieu. Collective dancing is deeply linked to the environment from witch it emerges. It’s also considered as a form of expression that conveys various aspects of collective life as well as social organisation. Thus, it’s interesting to study the close relationship between dancing and society in Tunisia. In this study, we tried to examine Tunisian popular dancing, its nature and its uses as well as its function and place it holds in Tunisian society. This work is composed of three main parts. Part one tries to situate Tunisian dancing in its relation with two important elements: religion with its norms and taboos; history with its dynamic of exchanges and interactions between different cultures and civilisations. In the second part, we tried to describe and classify Tunisian dances both according to its functions (ritual, ceremonial) and its actors (professional, devotee) also according to gender (masculine, feminine). In the third and last part, we tried to focus on all those elements presented in the first and second part. Our interpretation aimed at, first defining the place of dancing in Tunisian culture as well as its social functions. We then tried to consider dancing as an expression that conveys different groups’ mentalities and identities. Finally, we attempted to study the tradition using fieldwork

Full textThe research focuses on three case studies to characterize how knowledge of dance and choreographic creation is mobilized in different institutions: work sessions between a choreographer and dancers in a context of creation, interventions by a choreographic artist in schools, and school dance practice conducted by an elementary schoolteacher. Our approach is based on a didactic anthropology, based on the Joint Action Theory in Didactics (JATD), which leads us to analyse the transactions of the different actors we observe (choreographers, dancers, teachers, students) in order to understand through the construction of choreographic works, the life of the knowledge that shapes them. It results in characterizing creation as a process of inquiry, from which implies that choreographers and dancers get involved into an inventive milieu. The different case studies we put into perspective lead us to reconsider the conditions and issues of dance teaching and learning in schools, and to argue for a closer relatioship between professional choreographic practices and school practices. In particular, the question of students' experience in creative processes in the school context is questioned here on the basis of an analysis of the actual activity of artists in creative situations. The research raises questions about how artistic practices can be practiced within the school institution. The didactic approach chosen allows us to reconsider the teacher-student relationship in the light of the specificities inherent in these practices

Full textThe research object deals with the embodiment and appropriation processes of two dance types. Their historic evolution is analyzed in the first part of memoir. The thesis aims at demonstrating that embodiment and appropriation operations of the dancer's profession vary according to the dance types and engender thereby specific apprenticeship situations. This leads to the development of various skills as well as of different relations to the practice. Through the comparative and comprehensive analysis of "classical" and "modern" dance practices, the embodiment (that is to say corporal comprehension of gestures produced by body principles related to ethical and aesthetic values) appears as a many-sided process that is not reduced to unconscious or silent operations. This, the main part of the research is a detailed analysis of learning types used during dance lessons. The various skill levels and dance types will be taken into account. Observations concern dancer's education before their professionalisation

Full textAround 1830, Romanticism prevails on theatre stages. The new perspective on performance as a whole leads to a new perception of ballet. However, ballet struggles to assert its specificity and in the battle of words that unfolds, the ballerina, rather than the ballet, becomes the main focus onstage. The ballerina cristallizes the duality that is key to the Romantic vision. She thus finds herself at the heart of a campaign to elevate her to the status of legend, which is also a way for ballet to gain recognition. The narrative of ballet, from this point onwards, has to rely on a mythography. What is ultimately at stake is the definition of the Romantic dancing body. The mythologizing process creates a chaste body : the glorious dancing body. However, this metaphorical body is but the antithesis of another one : the earthy dancing body. Finally, it is backstage in the theatre that the dancing body is unveiled at work, frail and in pain, forever the price to pay for enchantment

Full textSalomé has always been haunting our minds and sneaking into artistic creations. She evolves through the centuries, changing with artists' state of mind and meeting their creative desire. However, symbolist and decadent artists are those who gave the biblical dancer her real take-off, imposed her as a true archetypal figure, with dance at the heart of the recreation. Terpsichore's art also takes hold of Salome and stage and chorography techniques enable the assertion of new social ideas, innovative dance trends and the development of new artistic know-hows through the myth of Herodias. This work tackles not Salome in absolute, but rather her dance, and more specifically the way it is expressed in writings and on stage. We shall see, through the figure of the dancer, what complicity bond the two languages, that of the body and the moves, and that of the words. How does Salome mix artistic influence and social and cultural revolution?

Full textThis research tries to place in a prominent position the mechanisms of emergence of the contemporary dance in France between 1968 and 1981. Livened up by a desire emancipator to live and to dance particularly intense in the after 1968, the dancers but also journalists, administrators produced micropolitics through which their collective and militant actions, their desires of practices and dance allowed to sediment, without undoing the tension and visible contradictions from the 1950s, the contemporary choreograpic field. Before enter upon 1968 on our first part, we draw up an inventory of the choreographic field in the 1950s and 1960s to understand the condition of appearance of this still fragile community, confronted with a battle around the notion of modernity between the upholders of a « classic » legacy and those of a « modern » legacy. If 1968 is then envisaged as a political moment for the dance, its « cultural » effects join troughout 1970s. At first, they make possible the reception of the modernities come from the United States. Then, they favor the installation of self-managed and collective modes of production and organization as well as modes of militance in favour of the provement of the conditions of life and creation. In some respects, this organization of the choreographic field, by the margins et the « discreet strengths », contributed to what we called « the explosion of the New French dance » in the 1980s

Full textThis dissertation focuses on event-driven and performance, choreographic interventions; such interventions could either be created by cultural institutions or rise from self-organized activities occurring in public space. The main purpose of this work is to identify new spatial practices which have developed since the 80s in France, and how they are part of a gradual change in the broad spectrum of practices. Indeed, as art arrangements grew to become more and more spatially opened, new and unusual sociability forms appeared. These new forms fuelled the intrinsic dynamic of these new arrangements, leading them to be labelled as " in-between spaces ". It is thus revealed how actors' engagements are pluralized through the overlapping of different social worlds. These crossings between worlds add a great complexity to identity recognition processes in the dance world. New social, economic and corporeal practices appear at the interface of more legitimate spaces. However, by analyzing the careers from the different forms of socialization also leads to distinguishing between several types of collective actors which develop differentiated conceptions of territoriality. In this way, the competencies developed by certain dancers, choreographers and cultural intermediaries working in situ, are more (than others) the result of a real capitalization of spatial experiences which are invigorated by the embedment of different social worlds. These actors will then blur the limits of the dance job market, because their competencies will reflect professional socialisation and their engagements in different social networks in the world of dance

Full textThis thesis explores the development of two professional worlds of French hip hop dance, from its initial public support and artistic recognition in the 1980s to its split into two distinct production networks in the 2000s. This study focuses on the analysis of the careers of the first two generations French hip hop dancers in order to understand how these two dance types were established. It is also based on a collection of archives and interviews of various hip hop professionals. Finally, this thesis also analyzes the development of various hip hop events in the Parisian region between 2007 and 2012, the collaboration required to produce them and several observations during these performances. The information thus acquired shows the processes leading to the formation of two models of professional French hip hop dance genres, and their recognition by distinct networks. These two types of French hip hop dance differ mainly in the aspect of the genre that they primarily based on: the first is a creative type of hip hop dance, recognized by the artistic community; the second is a competitive type of hip hop dance, developing behind the scenes of the art world, without any official recognition. These two worlds of French hip hop dance can therefore coexist, and provide professional opportunities for various artists and others who are active in the dance community

Full textThe methodological starting point of this research was participant observation of a patient with «chronic pain» who was being seen for therapy through qigong. The patient’s frequent statements regarding situations of conflict with the family, the employer or doctors led me to consider the similarity between the symptoms described, the uses of the body and mental attitudes related to a mechanistic, dualistic representation of the body. Marcel Mauss was the first to address this relationship between the uses of the body and societal and cultural paradigms. At a time deeply marked by the automation of businesses and services, the dematerialization of documents and the tyranny of new technologies, «chronic pain» calls into question the uses of the contemporary body in a working world based on performance and productivity. The aim of this research is to examine how «chronic pain» may be a symptom of contemporary aporias that go far beyond the sphere of medicine and how it may be «the weapon of the weak» in a context of oppression (Scott, 1985). Ultimately, this research examines Michel Foucault’s statement that «we all have power in our bodies» (1987: 27). The collected life narratives of professional dancers, who were approached because of their ability to describe their feelings, avoid the tendency to relegate to the realm of the psyche whatever cannot be demonstrably proven. The strong credibility of the acccounts makes it possible to better document a complex phenomenon marred by a great many a priori and reveal the dynamics of power at work in a profession that, more than any other, confronts the limits of the body in the exercise of its art. A genealogical approach to these stories of pain and their examination side-by-side allowed me to identify the habits of endurance and rejection of medication and how they influenced the evolution of the pain. A more detailed analysis of the six healed one’s narratives shows that while power is exercised on a body perceived as docile, it may also be reversed to support a recovery at the cost of an insurrection of buried knowledge that is universal but «subjugated» and a change of paradigm. Thus, a better understanding of «chronic pain» makes it possible to envisage its reversibility and a social reintegration, with or without a career change, on the condition that we rethink our modes of representation, production and relation to work and to the uses of the body, and our relationship to the Other and the self.
