Dance and Modernism in Irish and German Literature and Culture : Connections in Motion Hardback
Edited by Sabine Egger, Catherine E. Foley, Margaret Mills Harper
Hardback
Description
A collection of scholarly articles and essays by dancers, scholars of ethnochoreology, dance studies, drama studies, cultural studies, literature, and architecture, Dance and Modernism in Irish and German Literature and Culture: Connections in Motion explores Irish-German connections through dance in choreographic processes and on stage, in literary texts, photography, dance documentation, film, and architecture from the 1920s to today.
The contributors discuss modernism, with a specific focus on modern dance, and its impact on different art forms and discourses in Irish and German culture.
Within this framework, dance is regarded both as a motif and a specific form of spatial movement, which allows for the transgression of medial and disciplinary boundaries as well as gender, social, or cultural differences.
Part 1 of the collection focuses on Irish-German cultural connections made through dance, while part 2 studies the role of dance in Irish and German literature, visual art, and architecture.
