Assembling these essays from international, sometimes untranslated sources and curating their relationship to a rapidly changing field, this Reader offers an important resource in the dynamic scholarly fields of Dance and Performance Studies.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eWhat makes this volume especially appropriate for undergraduate and graduate teaching is its critical focus on twentieth- and twenty-first-century dance artists and choreographers - among these, Oskar Schlemmer, Merce Cunningham, Kazuo Ohno, William Forsythe, Bill T. Jones, and Pina Bausch, some of the most high-profile European, American, and Japanese artists of the past century. The volume's constellation of topics delves into controversies that are essential turning points in the field (notably, \u003ci\u003eStill\/Here \u003c\/i\u003eand \u003ci\u003eParis is Burning\u003c\/i\u003e), which illuminate the spine of the field while interlinking dance scholarship with performance theory, film, visual, and public art.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe volume contains the first critical assessments of Franko's contribution to the field by André Lepecki and Gay Morris, and an interview incorporating a biographical dimension to the development of Franko's work and its relation to his dance and choreography. Ultimately, this Reader encourages a wide scope of conversation and engagement, opening up core questions in ethics, embodiment, and performativity.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Mark Franko\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 081537898X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780815378983\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Routledge\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/11\/2018\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 288\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.95lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.14w x 0.64d","brand":"Mark Franko","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44058200768767,"sku":"9780815378983","price":49.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_05c0d8c5-a592-43f8-b682-1a152c112751.jpg?v=1685051214","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/choreographing-discourses-mark-franko-9780815378983","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
