{"product_id":"worlds-of-social-dancing-james-nott-9781526156259","title":"Worlds of Social Dancing: Dance Floor Encounters and the Global Rise of Couple Dancing, C. 1910-40","description":"By the 1920s, much of the world was 'dance mad, ' as dancers from Buenos Aires to Tokyo, from Manchester to Johannesburg and from Chelyabinsk to Auckland, engaged in the Charleston, the foxtrot and a whole host of other fashionable dances. Worlds of social dancing examines how these dance cultures spread around the globe at this time and how they were altered to suit local tastes. As it looks at dance as a 'social world', the book explores the social and personal relationships established in encounters on dance floors on all continents. It also acknowledges the impact of radio and (sound) film as well as the contribution of dance teachers, musicians and other entertainment professionals to the making of the new dance culture.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e James Nott\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1526156253\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781526156259\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Manchester University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/25\/2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 304\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.31lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.14w x 0.69d","brand":"James Nott","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":43990666543359,"sku":"9781526156259","price":130.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_25348b90-f014-4e3a-ba6c-5503b954a40b.jpg?v=1683305974","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/worlds-of-social-dancing-james-nott-9781526156259","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
