Download or read book The Cultivation of Body and Mind in Nineteenth-Century American Delsartism written by Nancy Ruyter and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 1999-09-30 with total page 190 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study chronicles the American adaptation of the theory and practice of the French acting, singing, and aesthetics teacher, Francois Delsarte. Delsartism was introduced in the United States by Steele Mackaye, Delsarte's only American student. American Delsartism, with its emphasis on physical culture and expression, differed significantly from Delsarte's works in France. The system evolved from professional training for actors and orators to a means of physical culture and expression that became popular among middle and upper class American women and girls. It allowed nineteenth-century women to pay attention to their bodies, to explore their own physicality, and to perform in a socially acceptable venues. In its later manifestations, Delsartism influenced the innovative dance of such artists as Isadora Duncan, Ruth St. Denis, and Ted Shawn. Biographical information on the most notable figures in the development of American Delsartism is presented along with a discussion of the spread of Delsartism throughout the United States and to Germany. The Delsartean approach to training and expression is traced from Delsarte and Mackaye through the theory, teaching, and performance of Genevieve Stebbins, the most notable American proponent of the system. This work will appeal to scholars of dance history and of late nineteenth-century women's studies. Theater historians will appreciate the detailed account of the system as developed and taught by Steele Mackaye as training for actors. Although Delsartism has been acknowledged as relevant to the history of modern dance, scant information and research has previously been published which explores the movement in depth and discusses its importance to women's physical and cultural education in nineteenth-century America. Photographs illustrate the text and an extensive bibliography serves as a useful guide for further research.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Modernism's Mythic Pose recovers the tradition of Delsartism, a popular international movement that promoted bodily and vocal solo performances, particularly for women. This strain of classical-antimodernism shaped dance, film, and poetics. Its central figure, the mythic pose, expressed both skepticism and nostalgia and functioned as an ambivalent break from modernity.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Researching Dance, an introduction to research methods in dance addressed primarily to graduate students, the editors explore dance as evolutional, defining it in view of its intrinsic participatory values, its developmental aspects, and its purposes from art to ritual, and they examine the role of theory in research. The editors have also included essays by nine dancer-scholars who examine qualitative and quantitative inquiry and delineate the most common approaches for investigating dance, raising concerns about philosophy and aesthetics, historical scholarship, movement analysis, sexual and gender identification, cultural diversity, and the resources available to students. The writers have included study questions, research exercises, and suggested readings to facilitate the book's use as a classroom text.

Download or read book A History of Women's Contributions to Linguistics written by Natalia Fernández Díaz-Cabal and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2024-05-02 with total page 150 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The author of this essay confesses that she has practised an exhumation exercise: an overwhelming work of research in which many names are hardly known (let alone recognised). The challenges of a work for which there is little precedent, and which was absolutely necessary, are numerous and varied: from the absence of documentation (or the difficulty of accessing it) to the over-representation of a large handful of linguists as opposed to the practical invisibility of the majority, to cite only the most obvious. Nevertheless, the result is an enjoyable and pedagogical read which documents the existence and contributions of more than 200 women who have worked in language-related disciplines. The book explores Western and Eastern sources in order to do justice to all those women who make this book meaningful.
