美国舞蹈的里程碑

拥抱戏剧性的相似性, 明显的析取, 以及惊人的创新, 这本书, edited by 伊丽莎白·麦克弗森 and published in 2022, explores the history and context of dance on the land we know today as the United States of America.

Designed for weekly use in dance history courses, it traces dance in the USA as it broke traditional forms, 交叉的类型, provoked social and political change, and drove cultural exchange and collision. The authors put a particular focus on those whose voices have been silenced, 不被承认的, and/or uncredited – exploring racial prejudice and injustice, 区间的女权主义, 抗议运动, 以及经济状况, as well as demonstrating how socio-political issues and movements affect and are affected by dance. 在看音乐会舞蹈, 方言的舞蹈, 祭祀之舞, and the convergence of these forms, the chapters acknowledge the richness of dance in today’s USA and the strong foundations on which it stands.
