Abstract:

Dance is usually perceived as a structured movement done by a person or more and accompanied by music and in some cases songs. The attention on physical movement often neglects the narrative which may exist behind a dance. Dances often have stories which frame the sequence of movements done by the dancers. The stories in a dance have elements of literature such as theme, plot, characters, and setting. This paper which is part of an on-going research on Semarang traditional dance discusses the story told through the movements and costume of Gambang Semarang dance. Gambang Semarang is traditiona

Abstract:

ABSTRACT: Dance is barely present in narrative studies. It is generally accepted as a narrative medium, yet lacks a systematic study that addresses its distinctive qualities. This article focuses on generic theoretical issues of dance as a narrative medium and discusses its place within current narratological debates. The first premise suggested here is that among the diferent manifestations of dance, narrative theatre dance is the fullest expression of narrativity, with a narrative essence that the notions of plot and experientiality help defining and grading.

Abstract:

In the 1760s, a change in the meaning of the French word ‘chorégraphie’, coined by Feuillet in 1700, coincides with the coming of age of the ballet d'action. At the time when Jean-Georges Noverre, Gasparo Angiolini and others are developing mime dance into a highly elaborate and aesthetically complex stage art, their contemporaries are beginning to use ‘chorégraphie’ to mean the dramaturgical structure of the work rather than a system of notation. The semantic shift suggests that drama is as fundamental to the ballet d'action as a Feuillet transcription is to danse noble. The analogy is someti

The texts, in contrasting ways, explore networks of power and desire, as well as the relationship between the aesthetic sphere and the world of social conventions and interactions, thus reflecting the thematic significance of dance in the literary culture of the period.

Cardiorespiratory capacity is one of the most important components of our physical fitnes for the general population. How much this ability is required in dance depends on factors such as dance mode, duration and intensity of step sequences and choreographies, and even the hierarchical position that the dancer occupies within a company. Although far from the values found in athletes, the cardiorespiratory capacity of dancers is good compared to the general population. Although the theme is explored in the 1980s, there are many points that still need further investigation, such as the relations

When a dancer is considered possessed, the boundaries between his human identity and the divine are wiped out.

Analyzing both writers’ approaches to narrative register, I examine these in context with their and Rousseau’s views on the belle danse , or danse noble , as a medium.

Scholars have long viewed the history of Polish dances through the lens of “Polish rhythms.” These rhythms are thought to characterize dances known as Polish from the sixteenth-century lute pieces of Hans Neusidler to the piano music of Frédéric Chopin.

Abstract:

This article considers the expectations of narrative that frequently surround Shakespearean dance adaptation. Reviewing responses to two contemporary productions ( Le Songe by Les Ballets de Monte Carlo and Golden Hours (As You Like It) by the Rosas company), discussion pays particular attention to critical and audience appetites when attending to performances of Shakespeare on the dance stage. Highlighting contemporary debates in dance studies, the discussion draws to a close examining the challenges of transposing (often well-known) Shakespearean texts into bodily gesture and movement.

Abstract:

Stanisław Moniuszko’s opera Halka is a quintessential work of Polish national music, renowned for its innovative incorporation of traditional Polish dance rhythms. These rhythms are creatively adapted into special musical melodies, highlighting a distinct Polish national style and earning global acclaim. Moniuszko masterfully integrates the rhythms of dances such as the mazurka, polonaise, and krakowiak, reflecting the personalities of different characters and enhancing the emotional and dramatic depth of the narrative. These dance rhythms not only emphasize the folkloric elements of the story

Abstract:

On a sunny day in a studio overlooking the Hudson River, a Mark Morris dancer guides a group of medical students in choreographing their patients’ stories. This class in narrative medicine provides a safe laboratory where doctors-to-be learn to view their relationships with future patients as an improvisatory partnered dance in which the choreography adjusts moment to moment as new challenges, details, and possibilities for healing emerge.

Abstract:

This paper will examine efforts of Anna Pavlova, La Argentina (Antonia Mercé), and Katherine Dunham to use folk and vernacular movement to create modernist narratives of national and cultural identity. Critics have noted the many connections that existed between Pavlova and La Argentina. Both were divas, adored by the public, with La Argentina frequently referred to as «the other Pavlova» or the «Pavlova of Spanish dance». Preeminently solo artists, although both founded companies, they embarked on tours that took them to the four corners of the world. Although considerably younger, Katherine

Abstract:

The last label Edouard Lock would like to have applied to his choreographic work is “dance theatre.” The artistic director of La La La Human Steps takes a firm stand against this new trend in the dance scene, stating again and again that it tends to impoverish the vocabulary of movements and impose limitations on the creativity of the choreographer. I would like to analyze some basic notions about these three related fields from my own point of view, which is that of a dance writer, theatre critic and corporeal artist trained in mime. Then, I want to ask: why are some people from the theatre t

This paper examines the story of the last female drifters in Iceland from the voices of women who remembered them. It examines the advantages of the woman-on-woman oral history interview when obtaining women’s perspectives on women’s history. An examination of women’s narrative techniques suggests that women’s narrative style is often consistent with a conversational style; and therefore it is important to construct a space in woman-on-woman oral history interviews that carries a sense of place for a conversation. It also examines the woman-on-woman oral history interview as a continuation of
