Abstract:

Dance could be described as a performance art form in which the basic tool is the body and its purposefully selected movement in an intentionally rhythmical and culturally pattern with an aesthetic value and symbolic potential. Human has been using the body and its movement as a tool to express feelings and desires since prehistoric times and continues until now. When we dance, our bodies fire up with emotion and allow us to express what words cannot. In folk cultures around the world, people dance to impart knowledge and wisdom, express their emotions or devotion, and pass down the s

Abstract:

Includes bibliographical references.<br>The dancers of Nyanga have taken note of the extent to which modernity has caused them to adjust and transform the movement quality and execution of their dances to create new urban African social dances. In addition, the urban dancers' experiences in the field have affected and influenced their craft. These perspectives have served as a point of departure for a re-evaluation of the role and predicaments of African social traditional dance in an urban environment, with specific reference to Nyanga township and raises questions around the manner in which

Abstract:

<p> Korean traditional mission dance originates in worship ceremonies in Christian churches and missionary settings, but inherits movement, floor patterns, and motifs from Korean folk dances that are performed as ceremonial rituals. This thesis suggests that as women connect to the healing power present in Korean traditional dance and its hybrid forms, they may be aided in healing from negative experiences with sexist oppression.

Abstract:

This study aims to investigate how dance teachers who are educated in Swedish folk dance are reflecting and thinking over the body and the use of bodily self-awareness in their teaching. Furthermore it wants to examine whether the use of somatic principles can act as a tool to support the ideas which dance teachers express. Four folk dance teachers have been interviewed as qualitative empirical material. These interviews have been transcribed and analyzed using codes and categories. The result of the study provides an image of the body as it is seen in folk dance today and points out similarit

Abstract:

This project attempts an interpretation of traditional Cretan dance music with Cretan instruments and with the Western flute. Examining the changes in musical practices brought by the new socio-cultural conditions in Crete from the mid-twentieth century until today, it argues that Western musical trends have indirectly caused the neglect and loss of some pertinent musical qualities and the modification of the traditional Cretan musical character. More particularly, it argues that some old Cretan instruments and repertories are being abandoned, while the non-equal-tempered tuning and the Easter

Two groups of dancers participate in testing and training protocols including a traditional group and a biofeedback training group to examine differences between the two teaching methods.

Abstract:

This development of a performer practice that integrates elements of traditional Korean dance technique and Western forms of physical theatre and contemporary dance is based on an approach to internal understanding and external execution. Central to the work is the concept of body energy, or Ki. This ancient Eastern term is translated into a contemporary practice that enables a performer to engage mental and physical training. Breath and the use of breath in performing are the principal means of achieving this level of engagement.

Abstract:

This thesis examines the continually changing avant-garde theatre and two artists who have emerged in the style of imagistic theatre. George Coates and Martha Clarke both abandon traditional literary playscripts and create their own work using images as the primary method of communication rather than the traditional word. Specific works of each artist are analyzed through use of text, storyline, visual elements, performer's role, audience reaction and in the case of Coates, his cinematic potentialities. This analysis begins to define the imagistic theatre and its application in the '90s. In ad

Previous studies show that contrary to other African languages of fewer speakers, written poetry in Sepedi/Sesotho sa Leboa’s transition from oral to written did not only lag behind, its development was also slow, with less intense treatment. However, this scarcity is not of the actual oral material, but rather its documented version. Vast untreated material at various repositories such as the South African Broadcasting Corporation (SABC) library and the International Library of African Music (ILAM) are facing a risk of being lost due to limited resources and resourcefulness to digitalise them

Abstract:

The distinctiveness of folk music and dance traditions in Cornwall is at best ignored and at worst denied by the wider British folk movement. Within Cornwall itself, traditional music and dance is not widely recognised as a serious art form. This study challenges this position by arguing that failure to recognise Cornwall’s folk tradition as a distinctive and creative art form is due to hegemonic power relations not the intrinsic nature of Cornish material. It contributes to the debate about the distinctiveness of Cornwall’s historical and cultural identity and shows that folk tradition has an

Before Namibian independence in 1990, teaching was mostly characterized by teacher-centred pedagogies in which teachers were perceived as the main sources of knowledge. This resulted in learners being passive recipients of such unquestioned knowledge. After independence and to address this, a new educational system was introduced which promoted learner-centred education (LCE) pedagogy. Despite these grand ideals, educational changes in sub-Saharan Africa form a complex issue involving tensions between policy formulation and implementation.

Orientador: Kathya Maria Ayres de Godoy<br>Resumo: O território desta pesquisa é habitado pelas práticas em dança com barro desenvolvidas no percurso de formação e atuação artística pedagógica da autora. Os processos de aprendizagem sobre o corpo e o movimento em contexto educativo, brincante e artístico com a dança – sustentações de minha atuação profissional nessa área – emergem do encontro com a história dos trabalhadores de mutirão para a construção de casas de pau-a-pique e de sua relação com a Dança do Coco Alagoano, que associei ao trabalho com argila desenvolvido com crianças, jovens e

Abstract:

Through comparing the repertoires, presentational characteristics, and rehearsal procedures of Surinamese Maroon culture-based performance groups within Paramaribo, I outline the concept of personalizing tradition. This is based on the premise that differing social and performative practices lead to different understandings of the same performance genre, and that culture-based collectives, like those discussed here, mobilize tradition in order to fulfill a variety of social needs and aspirations. Their personalizing practices lead to embodied understandings of a variety of concepts, among them

Abstract:

Dans cette étude, nous avons porté notre attention sur la danse traditionnelle et populaire en Tunisie, tant dans le milieu sacré que profane. La danse collective est étroitement liée au milieu dont elle émane. Elle représente un moyen d’expression privilégié qui véhicule plusieurs aspects de la vie d’un groupe et de son organisation sociale. C’est pourquoi il nous paru pertinent d’étudier la relation étroite entre danse et société en Tunisie. Cette étude de la danse porte sur sa nature, ses usages, sa fonction et la place qui lui est conférée dans la société tunisienne. Pour éclairer toutes c

Abstract:

The interdisciplinary field of Dance Studies as a separate arena focusing on the social, political, cultural, and aesthetic aspects of human movement and dance emerged in the late 1980s and early 1990s. Dance criticism integrated Dance Studies into the academy as critics addressed the social and cultural significance of dance. In particular, Jane Desmond created an integrated approach engaging dance history and cultural studies; in the framework of her findings, dance is read as a primary social text. She emphasizes that movement style is an important mode of distinction between social groups,

Abstract:

This research aims to analyse the role and consequence of state patronage and promotion of Thai classical dance after the revolution of 1932, when the patronage of court dance changed from royal to state support. This research examines connections between the authority of the state, nationalism, Thai identity, and the invention of tradition, by focussing on the reconstruction of Thai classical dance, the promotion of spirituality in the Wai Khru ceremony, and dance pedagogy. This study uses historical research and ethnography through participant-observation, and interviews with senior dance te

Abstract:

The aim of this practice-based research project is to investigate innovative techniques in the composition and presentation of electronic music that draw on the history of Electronic Dance Music (EDM) and seek to discover new modes of expressive listening experiences removed from the dance floor environment. This study will help illuminate the differing expectations of the dance floor and the concert hall as an investigation of ways to expand the creative potential of both perspectives. A review of electroacoustic and EDM music and the musicological literature will be undertaken to understand

Abstract:

Among the Anlo-Ewe of Ghana, dance functions essentially as a pivot around which indigenous cultural practices revolve. Anlo-Ewe music and dance tradition which is the focus of this study, serves as a dynamic tool in the transmission of indigenous knowledge, skills, values and virtues. In addition to being a repository of Anlo-Ewe knowledge dance provides the avenue through which dancers, musicians, story tellers and visual artists are able to document, preserve and transmit indigenous knowledge and reenact the historical, socio-cultural and political structure of the Anlo-Ewe.
