- 1 Want to read
Europe Dancing examines the theatre dance cultures that have developed in Europe since the Second World War. Nine countries are represented in this unique collaboration between European dance scholars. The contributors chart the post-war development of the art form and discuss the outside influences that have shaped it. The book explores: questions of identity within individual European countries, and in relation to the USA, the East/West cultural division, the development of state subsidy for dance, the rise of contemporary dance as an 'alternative' genre, the implications for dance of political, economic and social change. At-a-glance historical charts trace significant dance, arts and political events in each country. Never before has this information been gathered together in one place. Europe Dancing is essential reading for everyone interested in dance and in its growth and development in recent years.
