    This study is dedicated to the notion of the tragic in European dance theatre, the evocation of which takes place in a field of tension constituted by staging techniques as well as by conceptions, procedures and moments of interruption, of suspension, of disturbance and of an indeterminability effected by ec-static corporeality. It is possible to recognise in the event-generating structure and function of the tragic formal principles and an aesthetics of effect coupled to new constellations of the fictional and the choric, absence and presence.

    From the perspective of dance studies, the tragic emerges from the representation by means of the moving and moved body of a gruesome monstrosity at the limits of what is imaginable; but how exactly does the mise-en-scène of the ambivalent, ambiguous and paradoxical through figures and figurations of pathos function to make the tragic appear? Diese Studie widmet sich dem Tragischen im europäischen Tanztheater, dessen Evokation in einem Spannungsfeld von inszenatorischen Techniken, Konzeptionen, Verfahren und Momenten der Unterbrechung, der Aussetzung, der Störung und des Unbestimmbaren durch ek-statische Körperlichkeit erfolgt. An seiner ereignisgenerierenden Struktur und Funktion lassen sich formale und wirkungsästhetische Ordnungen erkennen, die mit neuen Konstellationen von Fiktion und Chorischem, Abwesenheit und Anwesenheit einhergehen. Aus dieser Perspektive geht das Tragische von der Darstellung einer schauderhaften Ungeheuerlichkeit an der Grenze des Vorstellbaren durch den im mehrfachen Sinne bewegten Körper aus; doch wie genau wird Ambivalentes, Doppeldeutiges und Paradoxes über Pathosfiguren und -figurationen in Szene gesetzt, sodass das Tragische erscheinen kann?

    British Dance, Black Routes is an outstanding collection of writings which re-reads the achievements of Black British dance artists, and places them within a broad historical, cultural and artistic context. Until now discussion of choreography by Black dance practitioners has been dominated by the work of African-American artists, facilitated by the civil rights movement. But the work produced by Black British artists has in part been within the context of Britain’s colonial legacy. Ramsay Burt and Christy Adair bring together an array of leading scholars and practitioners to review the singularity and distinctiveness of the work of British-based dancers who are Black and its relation to the specificity of Black British experiences. From sub-Saharan West African and Caribbean dance forms to jazz and hip-hop, British Dance, Black Routes looks afresh at over five decades of artistic production to provide an unparalleled resource for dance students and scholars.

    This open access book discusses how citizenship is performed today, mostly through the optic of the arts, in particular the performing arts, but also from the perspective of a wide range of academic disciplines such as urbanism and media studies, cultural education and postcolonial theory. It is a compendium that includes insights from artistic and activist experimentation. Each chapter investigates a different aspect of citizenship, such as identity and belonging, rights and responsibilities, bodies and materials, agencies and spaces, and limitations and interventions. It rewrites and rethinks the many-layered concept of citizenship by emphasising the performative tensions produced by various uses, occupations, interpretations and framings.

    “American Anchor Artists and Festivals” highlights three key artists: Maureen Fleming, Joan Laage, and Diego Piñón. All have spent numerous years in Japan and worked with the Ohnos, and two have worked with Min Tanaka. Their teaching and performance is the foundation of American butoh. Additionally, Brechin Flournoy launched the San Francisco Butoh Festival launched in 1993, the first major American festival dedicated to butoh, which developed student communities, educated critics and audiences, and cultivated the funding community to support butoh in the Americas.

    Diversität, Teilhabe und Inklusion sind in aktuellen Debatten in Bildung, Wissenschaft, Politik und Kultur zentrale Leitbegriffe und Mitgestalter gesellschaftlicher Entwicklungen. Im Tanz spielt Diversität seit langem eine bedeutende Rolle, sei es als tanzkünstlerisches Thema, als Impuls für kreatives Schaffen, im Rahmen tanzpädagogischer Vermittlungsprozesse oder auch in tanztherapeutischen Kontexten. Zudem zeichnet sich Tanz durch sein hohes Teilhabe- und Inklusionspotenzial aus. Dieser Band versammelt grundlegende Positionen zu Diversität und Inklusion im und durch Tanz.; Fundamental positions on diversity and inclusion in and through dance.

    Restoring the Human Context to Literary and Performance Studies argues that much of contemporary literary theory is still predicated, at least implicitly, on outdated linguistic and psychological models such as post-structuralism, psychoanalysis, and behaviorism, which significantly contradict current dominant scientific views. By contrast, this monograph promotes an alternative paradigm for literary studies, namely Contextualism, and in so doing highlights the similarities and differences among the sometimes-conflicting contemporary cognitive approaches to literature and performance, arguing not in favor of one over the other but for Contextualism as their common ground

    This is the first book to view Shakespeare's plays from the prospect of the premodern death arts, not only the ars moriendi tradition but also the plurality of cultural expressions of memento mori, funeral rituals, commemorative activities, and rhetorical techniques and strategies fundamental to the performance of the work of dying, death, and the dead. The volume is divided into two sections: first, critically nuanced examinations of Shakespeare's corpus and then, second, of Hamlet exclusively as the ultimate proving ground of the death arts in practice. This book revitalizes discussion around key and enduring themes of mortality by reframing Shakespeare's plays within a newly conceptualized historical category that posits a cultural divide-at once epistemological and phenomenological-between premodernity and the Enlightenment
