This chapter investigates Louis XIV’s role in shaping court spectacle by analyzing the staging and political symbolism of Le ballet de la nuit (1653). Through this iconic performance, the monarch is interpreted not merely as a patron but as an active “maker” of theater—configuring his own image, constructing royal authority, and exemplifying embodied princely governance. The study traces how theatrical representation became a medium for monarchical self-fashioning and explores its broader implications for early modern political culture and the interplay of performance, power, and symbolism under the Sun King.

Performativnost tijela je koncept u kojem jezik tijela moze funkcionisati kao oblik drustvene akcije i imati ucinak promjene. Kada se tome doda u inkluzivnom teatru, podrazumijevamo i pravo osoba sa bilo kakvim poteskoćama na prisustva i učešće u teatru. Tijela bilo kojih diskriminiranih grupa u pozorištu može dovesti do promjena, jer samo njihovo prisustvo je oblik komunikacije i drustvene akcije. Da li kao publika ili kao performer, to oni treba da izaberu jer najcesce skoro da nemaju uopste mogucnost izbora niti jednog od ova dva navedena.

Dance, as a form of human expression, brings with it a rich history dating back to the most ancient times. Although it is often framed as art, its versatility goes further, being used not only for artistic purposes but also as a means of communication between human beings and, in some cultures, as a form of connection with deities. In this way, dance not only enriches the artistic sphere, but also intertwines with the human experience, becoming intrinsic to our being and existing in the world.

The paper explores the notion of emancipated dance dramaturgy, topic of peripheries and centres, while touching upon multiple ways how dramaturgy becomes vital in times of crisis and precarity. It maps an ongoing conversation of three dramaturgs operating in different contexts, attempts to reflect the current changing cultural-political landscape, and its effect on dance making within more marginal and less institutionalized scenes. It advocates for diverse forms of emancipation of dramaturgy, expansion of its roles and accountabilities by both giving examples and speculating.

Durante 2021, o Coletivo Areia: pesquisa artística e criação em/com dança 123 , vinculado aos cursos de Graduação em Dança da Universidade Federal do Ceará, realizou quatro conferências dançantes, a princípio tendo como participantes e conferencistas somente os integrantes do referido grupo de pesquisa. As conferências foram realizadas em formato remoto, iniciando um processo de experimentação e investigação artística movido pela "interculturalidade crítica" (Walsh, 2009). Compreendemos como "conferência dançante" a apresentação realizada por uma pessoa ou grupo, em que o público é convidado a intervir livremente durante a apresentação, tornando a conferência um processo de composição coletiva, uma vez que o público é convidado a improvisar a partir de como é afetado pela fala da/o/e conferencista, e a própria fala do/a/e conferencista é modificada pelas intervenções do público. Ainda que utilizemos o termo "dançante", a proposta é que as conferências não se limitem à linguagem e aos modos de composição específicos da Dança, mas que possam se valer de sonoridades, visualidades, falas poéticas, de modo a deslocar -fazer dançar -os territórios e modos de produção das linguagens artísticas.

How does one come to terms with the “already said” or the “already danced”? I ask this in light of the many instances where contemporary dance has insistently undertaken—as a condition of its own renewal—a critique of past works that have been transmitted through the oral tradition. This undoing of the oral tradition's dominance has instantiated a new relation to the past in contemporary dance. Hannah Arendt throws some light on this process when she quotes Walter Benjamin, for whom modernity required that we find a different way of connecting with the past—one that would replace transmission with citationality. To cite, in speech act theory, as in dance, presupposes that the authority of the past be replaced with that disquieting ability of the past to infiltrate the present in a disembodied way (Arendt 1974, 291). The challenge of citation to the prestige of oral person-to-person transmission of a dance has introduced a new way for contemporary artists to relate to and re-embo...

Argentine tango is considered a social leisure dance, but its evolution over the past two decades has brought it to elite level due to shows on several stages as well as national and international dance competitions divided into several categories. The current research was performed on a group of experienced tango dancers aged up to 35 years. The aim of the paper was to improve and increase the level of performance, proposing a new training method. The new method involves introducing and using the turning board training device in classical training. Initially, the turning board was invented for and used by ballet dancers, ice-skaters and gymnasts, but it was adapted for the first time in this research for Argentine tango through specific individual and couple exercises with the main goal of improving balance and pivots during the execution of this fundamental dance element that is present in almost every circular movement and change of direction. The research methodology used the well-established Y-Balance Test and Flamingo Balance Test as well as an invented rotation test on the turning board. The results of this method demonstrated a significant increase in coordination, balance, posture, spatial orientation and all turning movements involving pivots on the metatarsals around the vertical axis of tango dancers, who have improved both their individual and couple techniques. Following the results achieved, this paper can be considered a pilot study for future scientific research on Argentine tango as an art and elite sport.

Resúmen: Durante la pandemia no se interrumpió de manera significativa la creación coreográfica y se incrementó en relación a las fases anteriores. Aunque muchos coreógrafos y artistas de la danza estaban anteriormente envueltos la video danza y la screen dance, a través del perfomance multimedial e intermedial, el confinamiento introdujo un nuevo elemento no experimentado plenamente con anterioridad a nivel de los artistas jóvenes: la necesidad de experimentar, de crear y de expresarse en espacios de confinamiento haciendo un uso intensivo de los medios tecnológicos y las plataformas digitales. Este trabajo de investigación explora los procesos semióticos de corporeidad encarnada y re-corporización. Partimos del modelo de la Kinesfera de Rudolf Von Laban como espacio personal, como envoltura y sus transformaciones.

Spanishness, the imagined perception of Spain, played a major role in interwar Latvian ballet. We located forty-five Spanish-themed ballets, divertissements, and concert miniatures performed between 1923 and 1941. Dancing bodies act as cross-cultural archives that enable us to comprehend the identities projected through inherited gestures. This article proposes that Spanishness, perceived as an exotic and distant Other, may have enhanced the identity of the pre-war Republic of Latvia. We examined the ballets Paquita, Jota Aragonesa, Don Quixote, Boléro, and Laurencia through primary visual sources supported by Latvian press data. These case studies depicted a polyhedric image of Spain firmly based on Andalusian archetypes, intertwined with Orientalist motifs, and the jota of Aragon. Spanishness can be seen as an integral aspect of the multicultural manifestation of Latvian interwar society. The outbreak of the Spanish Civil War in 1936 marked a turning point that increased interest in this multilayered mirror. In late 1930s with increasing political and military pressure of the Soviet Union, Spanishness evolved into a soft power strategy and, ultimately, became a Soviet propaganda tool.

In the heart of Zug lies a training center that treats dance not as a performance, but as a practice-an art form that speaks as much to the inner self as it does to the audience. Eurythmie Zug Training Center has redefined what it means to attend a dance school in Zug, offering a movement-based education that is personal, profound, and rooted in purpose.

This study determined the prestige and challenges of the cultural dancers of the Laguna State Polytechnic University school year 2019-2020. Specifically, this study determined the demographic profile of the cultural dancers in terms of age, sex, gender, course, and year level, the level of prestige of the cultural dancers in terms of objectives in joining, skills in dancing, exposure of the dancers, and training, the level of challenges of the cultural dancers in terms of time management, academic achievement, support of family and friends, expectations of the school, and technical assistance of the school, the significant relationship between the demographic profile and challenges of the cultural dancers, and the significant relationship between the prestige and challenges of the cultural dancers of Laguna State Polytechnic University? The researchers used the descriptive survey research method that utilizes an enumerated sampling technique. The participants were 100 cultural dancers. A self-made survey questionnaire was used in this study. Frequency distribution was used in the demographic profiles of the respondents. Mean and standard deviation were used to determine the level of prestige, and level of challenges of the cultural dancers. Pearson moment correlation coefficient was used to measure the significant relationship between the profiles and challenges of cultural dancers, and the significant relationship between the prestige and challenges of cultural dancers. The following were the significant findings of the investigation: Findings show that the majority of the respondents are female, 19 years old, most of them are first year and belongs to the course of Bachelor of Physical Education. The level of prestige of the cultural dancers of laguna state polytechnic university in terms of objectives in joining, skills in dancing, exposure of the dancers, and training got a verbal interpretation of very highly prestige. Furthermore, the level of challenges of the cultural dancers of laguna state polytechnic university in terms of time management, academic achievement, support of family and friends, expectation of the school, and technical assistance of the school got a verbal interpretation of very highly challenge. The relationship between the profiles and challenges of cultural dancers is significant, and the relationship between the prestige and challenges of cultural dancers is also significant. The researcher therefore concludes that there is a significant relationship between the profiles and challenges of cultural dancers, and there is also a significant relationship between the prestige and challenges of cultural dancers. Thus, the null hypothesis is rejected. .

Ana María Górriz fue una bailarina de talla internacional que llevó su arte más allá del Atlántico. Nacida en Zaragoza el año que estalló la Guerra Civil, fue hija del administrador de uno de los cines ya desaparecidos de la capital aragonesa, el Cine Fuenclara. Ahí, en el mismo palacio donde vivió, y rodeada de una familia amante de todo lo artístico, conoció a María de Ávila, quien la acogió años más tarde como su primera alumna.

A lo largo de la historia moderna, la celebración de bailes de máscaras
fue una constante en las cortes europeas como evento social y cultural.
En España, esta tradición tuvo que enfrentarse con las reticencias de la
jerarquía eclesiástica cuya influencia supuso repetidas prohibiciones o
limitaciones las cuales duraron hasta bien entrado el siglo XIX. Podemos
aventurar que la ciudad de Huesca no fue una excepción, teniendo en
cuenta la información de la que disponemos relativa a los diferentes

Brief Project Description (do not exceed space given below) IM/UR II: ldentity Exchange is an interactive performance installation that will involve head-mounted displays (HMDs), stereoscopic video, interaction with real-time virtual worlds, exotic input devices, music, and a live cyborg-performer named UR (Universal Remote). It is a kind of parallel work to another project of mine, also entitled IMIUR (the "II" in the new title does not indicate a sequel, but rather a parallel). IM/UR II: Identity Exchange is an entirely new piece that borrows some of the concepts of the previous work. This piece turns on certain post-humanist ideas regarding identity and consciousness. The notion that consciousness, like data, is not contingent on specific and unique corporeal embodiment is a popular one among many contemporary cyber-theorists. This work will both embrace and critique this post-humanist concept of embodiment and identity. By using (HMDs) to accomplish a sensory exchange of perspectives, I will take the hand of the spectator and together we will trust-fall into this hypothesis. The spectator will participate in a playful and performative prognostication of the future of consciousness and cyborg identity.

From traditional origins in coastal Aceh and the Gayo highlands, the sitting dances of Aceh, the westernmost province of Indonesia, have exploded in popularity and acclaim, spreading to schools, universities, embassies, and festival stages across Indonesia and the world (Kartomi, 2006; Ishiguro, 2019). They require intense rhythmic co-ordination between participants, who synchronize singing, body percussion and dance movements. In these dances participants generally kneel close together in a tightly-packed line, executing arm, head and torso movements in sync and producing body percussion by clapping or striking the thighs or
chest while singing songs about religious values, relationships, nature and daily life (Kartomi, 2010, p. 90). The dances are said to represent or express cohesiveness, and participants report experiencing heightened feelings of togetherness while performing. This paper presents findings from my ethnographic research with sitting dance participants, in which the embodied experiential knowledge shared by these “dancer-musicians” (Kartomi, 2004, p. 1) is brought to bear on issues which have more often been examined using cognitive sciences methodologies.

Teaching efficacy and motivation are regarded as crucial elements that influence the job performance of Music, Arts, Physical Education, and Health teachers in Philippine public schools. This study determined the significant influence of teaching efficacy and motivation on job performance among MAPEH teachers using a quantitative method, specifically a descriptive-correlational research design. Total enumeration sampling was employed to gather data from MAPEH teachers in Cluster 1, Davao City. Data were collected through adapted and validated questionnaires and analyzed in descriptive statistics using mean, standard deviation, Pearson product-moment correlation, and multiple regression analysis to assess the levels of teaching efficacy, motivation and job performance. The findings revealed that the respondents had a very high level of teaching efficacy (M=4.53, SD=0.36), high level of motivation for teaching was rated as high with (M=4.11, SD=0.30) and job performance of MAPEH teachers was evaluated as very high (M=4.83, SD=0.60). Furthermore, there was a significant relationship between teaching efficacy and job performance, as well as between motivation and job performance (p=0.05). In terms of influence, both teaching efficacy and motivation significantly predicted job performance (p=0.05), with motivation contributing a slightly higher unique variance. The study recommends targeted professional development to enhance efficacy and motivation.

The Roma community of Europe, which migrated from India centuries ago, continues to maintain a cultural structure that closely parallels Indian traditions. Elements of Indian influence are still evident in their dance, music, clothing, and jewellery. Traditional attire not only reflects an individual's identity but also conveys the cultural and ethnic heritage of the community. Even after generations, a strong sense of Indianness can be observed in the traditional dress and ornaments of the Roma people. This is particularly apparent in Gypsy folk dance, where the similarities in costumes and jewellery with Indian styles are striking. This research paper presents a comparative study of the traditional clothing and jewellery of the Indian and Roma communities. Through interviews and other primary sources, the study highlights the cultural continuity between the two groups and explores the shared symbolism expressed through their attire and adornments.

This study explores the action preferences of dance-major students, college athletes, and non-dance, non-athlete controls using the "Action Checklist," a tool of 295 verbs categorized by preference. Participants included 71 dancers, 83 athletes, and 29 predominantly female controls from Southern California colleges. Analysis focused on the frequency of verbs liked and their classification using two systems: Laban/Bartenieff Movement Analysis (body, effort, shape, space) and literal categories such as play, work, everyday actions, imagination, physicality, and arts. Four scales indicated creative potential. Results revealed significant differences between groups, highlighting traits of high creativity (e.g., energy or broad interests). The Action Checklist was used to assess action preferences and creativity across various populations.

Um dos grandes desafios enfrentados pela dança na contemporaneidade é realizar propostas educacionais em instituições educacionais que envolvam não somente os alunos, mas também seus pais e professores. O presente projeto de pesquisa, em interface com a extensão e o ensino, desenvolveu oficinas e outras atividades de dança com estudantes de 7-12 anos em três escolas públicas e três centros de educação infantil da cidade de Viçosa/MG e, também, com seus pais e professores. Delimitamos, neste artigo, nossa discussão à narração e reflexão sobre as ações e propostas artístico-culturais de dança com o público adulto. O trabalho com os professores, além de ter lhes permitido vivenciar a dança como arte, acrescentando essa experiência em sua formação cultural pessoal e profissional, permitiu também que eles se dessem continuidade ao trabalho (em dança ou por meio da dança) com seus alunos. Eles foram capacitados a se tornarem agentes multiplicadores das atividades do projeto. As oficinas d...

O artigo resulta de mesa apresentada no IX Congresso da ABRACE na Universidade Federal de Uberlândia, em novembro de 2016, em que integrantes do Coletivo A-FETO compartilharam e teceram considerações sobre suas vivências na obra Cristal (MAC-SP, junho de 2016). Cristal é uma Imersão somático-performativa com participação do público, que acontece a partir de Padrões de Crescimento, de Mudança ou Padrões Cristal. Este princípio composicional da Abordagem Somático-Performativa foi inspirado na mutabilidade inerente às formas cristalinas das teorias de Rudolf Laban. Coerente com essa perspectiva em crescimento inerente ao próprio movimento criativo, a obra é uma instalação-performance que inclui dança, escrita, projeções, paisagem sonora em tempo real, e que aconteceu durante os dias da exposição Vesica Piscis (sob curadoria de Maria Mommensohn), como uma obra de tempo continuado.

A text in two parts. A discussion of her emerging methods is presented by H’Doubler herself in Part One, “Miss H’Doubler Remembers”. Here, speaking to dance students at Wisconsin ca. 1963, she recalls how she arrived in Madison, what occurred when she discovered women’s sports, the invitation to ‘stay on’ after graduating to coach basketball and baseball, the assignment she reluctantly accepted from her supervisor to “look into dance’” while pursuing graduate studies in philosophy at Columbia University, and the new life she discovered for herself when she came back to Madison in the summer of 1917 to teach her first dance class. I’ve inserted italicized ‘sidebars’ within the text to provide additional information and context.
Part Two is a re-presentation of Miss H’Doubler’s 1925 text "The Dance and its Place in Education." Developed out of her graduate MA thesis, it considers dance in education broadly; that its instruction involved more than just the study of its forms. Without explicitly saying as much, because no one, as yet, was thinking in these terms, H’Doubler presents dance studies as if they constituted the study of a discipline.

La iconografía de danza está presente en el día a día de la disciplina, tanto desde el punto de vista estético como académico. Aunque sí está presente en los trabajos dancísticos de otros países occidentales, el estudio de la relación entre danza y arte todavía no ha penetrado en el entorno académico español. Este trabajo se plantea como un inicio en la comparación iconográfica de la danza «extranjera» presente en el siglo xviii español y el fundamental análisis de la misma para entender las corrientes de intercambio en torno a la disciplina en España. En ese contexto, se hace evidente la necesaria creación de un sistema de codificación que permita catalogar las escenas de danza como disciplina propia dentro de las representaciones artísticas. Para contribuir en la investigación dancística, se propone un método de catalogación inspirado en el sistema musical creado por el grupo de trabajo AEDOM denominado IMAGENesMUSICA, y la creación de un sistema propio de codificación basado en T...

The article addresses the decline in classical music audiences, particularly among younger generations, and proposes strategies for its revival. Despite a global decrease in listenership, classical music remains an intangible cultural heritage of immense significance, whose preservation constitutes a moral duty. Ensuring its transmission to future generations demands a nuanced balance between conservation and innovation. The first section considers three key aspects: (1) UNESCO's 2003 Convention (2018a) recognizes music as an essential component of cultural heritage that requires protection; (2) classical music shapes cultural identity through notation and tradition, underscoring the need to safeguard both its texts and modes of transmission; (3) according to Samuel Scheffler (2010), it is future generations that confer meaning upon present practices, making the transmission of classical music both a duty to the past and a responsibility toward the future. The second section examines the role of the music industry in sustaining classical music. The article argues that its decline is not inevitable, but rather a challenge that can be met through collective responsibility, with audience development and innovation playing a crucial role in securing its future.

This article proposes that human perception of reality is not a passive reflection of an objective world but an active, embodied construction shaped by bodily interactions, spatial habits, and repeated perceptual patterns. Drawing on the neurophenomenology of Francisco Varela, the spatial cognition research of Barbara Tversky, and the psychological phenomenon known as the "Tetris Effect," we argue that emotions, cognition, and perception are deeply intertwined, forming a feedback loop that constructs lived reality. We explore how perceptual habits, reinforced through repetition, act as the "software" of emotional experience, and propose somatic micro-interventions as a means to consciously reshape these patterns. This interdisciplinary synthesis bridges cognitive science, phenomenology, and digital culture to offer a framework for understanding the embodied mind and its potential for transformation.

Metodologicamente trabalhamos com a revisão de literatura que tenta dar conta das questões que envolvem a dança e a Pedagogia performativa levando em consideração as experiências nos Ateliês de criação. A presente reflexão aponta para a possibilidade da construção de novos olhares em torno dos saberes formativos na trajetória a partir da perspectiva da Experiência e da Pedagogia Performativa pensadas em contextos de Juventude. Tais processos são experimentados em uma Instituição Pública de Ensino que se compromete com a problematização e a recriação de práticas específicas e modos de ser no seio dos diversos grupos sociais. O contato sistemático e criativo com a diversidade cultural presente nesses acervos de dança a partir da utilização de metodologias coletivas e participativas sob a perspectiva da Pedagogia Performativa tem contribuído para um processo sistemático e multidimensional orientado à formação do sujeito de direito e a promoção de uma socialidade ativa e participante.

Dans le spectacle Weathering (2023) de Faye Driscoll, les corps de dix danseurs-performeurs s'amalgament sur une plateforme qui évoque un iceberg à la dérive. Ils semblent fondre dans une extrême lenteur alors que la plateforme tourne sur elle-même de plus en plus rapidement. Sueur, terre, glycérine, agrumes et objets divers s'immiscent imperceptiblement dans cette chair éprouvée. Les systèmes fermés par lesquels la pensée occidentale a pu extirper le sujet du chaos du monde pour lui donner une position de premier plan dans l'Anthropocène sont progressivement ouverts. L'écologie comprise comme fondamentalement transitive et interdépendante est donnée à sentir par un ébranlement de l'ordre normalisé du spectre de la perception. Le sublime dans Weathering emprunte à la tradition philosophique-du Pseudo-Longin à Edmund Burke-son caractère totalisant et saisissant ainsi que sa mise en proximité des contraires, mais fait la part belle aux sens dits "inférieurs" et aux champs du dermique et de l'intime. Driscoll vise à "sensibiliser" (to sensitize) et mettre en mouvement pour contrer l'anesthésie engendrée par la saturation et l'accélération propres aux sociétés néo-libérales. Ce sublime à tendance matérialiste se concentre sur l'intériorité et le devenir du mouvement, de l'expression et du sens plus que sur leur actualisation et donne ainsi à éprouver l'étonnante processualité de l'écologie. Weathering convoque un "sublime de l'ordinaire" en ce qu'il ne fait qu'humblement inviter à une expérience de l'être, et, par extension, de l'être au monde.
