Descrizione articolo

Riassunto

This book relates to the scientific lecture program held at Dance Congress 2009 and approaches the plural, hybrid, and disparate worlds of dance and choreography; in addition to the specific discursive and medial strategies, modes, and materials of interdisciplinary perspectives. Thus, it is not only relevant in the context of dance research, but implies epistemological explosiveness as dance may be considered as an exemplary field of investigation with regard to the construction of certitude about the world in the context of assumptions, imagination, action, and perception.
