33-3342 Postcolonial Approaches to Dance Studies


This course explores dance and movement practices through a post-colonial lens. This course introduces methodologies for writing about the socio-political meanings that bodies carry as they move through time and space. Topics include: dance as cultural identity, dance as a social form of expression, dance as sacred practice, and dance as political power. Through readings, writing, lectures, discussion and extensive viewing of filmed and live performance, students come to understand dance as a rich human activity with many different manifestations and applications.
