WMST 274 - Cultural Studies in Dance History

Institution:

Denison University

Subject:

Description:

We will frame Western concert dance as a complex political activity made public through various agendas of race, creed, national origin, sexuality, and gender. Students will simultaneously be exposed to poststructuralist epistemology and feminist theory while they are meeting a survey of historical works. In this way, the course is less about coming to know a canon of "masterworks" and more about learning how to interrogate dance in any culture from a western perspective.(4 credits)
