Download or read book Celebrating Flamenco's Tangled Roots written by K. Meira Goldberg and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2022-01-18 with total page 492 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This collection of essays poses a series of questions revolving around nonsense, cacophony, queerness, race, and the dancing body. How can flamenco, as a diasporic complex of performance and communities of practice frictionally and critically bound to the complexities of Spanish history, illuminate theories of race and identity in performance? How can we posit, and argue for, genealogical relationships within and between genres across the vast expanses of the African—and Roma—diaspora? Neither are the essays presented here limited to flamenco, nor, consequently, are the responses to these questions reduced to this topic. What all the contributions here do share is the wish to come together, across disciplines and subject areas, within the academy and without, in the whirling, raucous, and messy spaces where the body is free—to celebrate its questioning, as well as the depths of the wisdom and knowledge it holds and sometimes reveals.

Book excerpt: El baile flamenco es hijo de cuantas culturas han tenido por solar propio las tierras andaluzas y de cuantas formas de entender la danza aquí han florecido y prosperado. Es, pues, el fruto de muchos mestizajes. Un patrimonio tan impuro como bello. Sus raíces llegan hasta los albores de la civilización occidental y tiene como primeros intérpretes a las bailarinas gaditanas que cautivaron a Juvenal, Marcial y sus contemporáneos. Después, se ha ido codificando y ha terminado por alcanzar identidad propia, gracias principalmente a los andaluces y gitanos que nacieron con el don de la danza. Y de los bailes de negros que desde el siglo XV hasta bien entrado el XIX no dejaron de llegar a nuestros puertos. A los andaluces les debe la elegancia, la gracia y un punto de picardía; a los gitanos, la pasión, la garra y el temperamento; y a los negros, el descaro y la sensualidad. Como se dice en la introducción, el baile flamenco es "Una criatura que tiene brazos de andaluza, pies de gitana y caderas de negra. Porque de Andalucía aprendió a mover los brazos y a hacer filigranas con las manos. Y a tocar los palillos. De los calés, a zapatear en un palmo de tierra. Y de los negros, el zarandeo y la voluptuosidad". El este libro, se hace un recorrido histórico desde la etapa en la que comienza a gestarse lo que a mediados del XIX empezó a conocerse por "baile flamenco" hasta las últimas noticias que nos han llegado y los últimos espectáculos que hemos tenido la dicha de contemplar. Se habla de los estilos que se consideran el tronco y la esencia del baile flamenco, pero también del baile que ha encontrado en el teatro su espacio natural: del ballet flamenco y de la danza-teatro fl amenca. Y se cierra con una mirada a lo que hoy sube a los escenarios y a lo que previsiblemente ocurrirá en un futuro cercano.

Without doubt future researchers will want to refer to Hanna's study, not simply for its rich bibliographical sources but also for suggestions as to how to proceed with their own work. Dance, Sex, and Gender will initiate a discussion that should propel a more methodologically informed study of dance and gender."—Randy Martin, Journal of the History of Sexuality

Download or read book Sonidos Negros written by K. Meira Goldberg and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2018-11-29 with total page 352 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How is the politics of Blackness figured in the flamenco dancing body? What does flamenco dance tell us about the construction of race in the Atlantic world? Sonidos Negros traces how, in the span between 1492 and 1933, the vanquished Moor became Black, and how this figure, enacted in terms of a minstrelized Gitano, paradoxically came to represent Spain itself. The imagined Gypsy about which flamenco imagery turns dances on a knife's edge delineating Christian and non-Christian, White and Black worlds. This figure's subversive teetering undermines Spain's symbolic linkage of religion with race, a prime weapon of conquest. Flamenco's Sonidos Negros live in this precarious balance, amid the purposeful confusion and ruckus cloaking embodied resistance, the lament for what has been lost, and the values and aspirations of those rendered imperceptible by enslavement and colonization.

Book excerpt: A lo largo de la historia, los creadores de moda: sastres, modistos o diseñadores han recurrido a otras épocas y a otras culturas como fuente de inspiración. El arte, las costumbres y el folclore han sido los aspectos más atractivos a los que estos creativos han dirigido su mirada. Entre los países occidentales, España, por su perfil exótico, debido a la herencia que dejaron las numerosas culturas que han convivido en él, fundamentalmente las islámicas, ha sido una fuente de inspiración permanente.

Download or read book A Time to Dance written by Padma Venkatraman and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2014-05-01 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Padma Venkatraman’s inspiring story of a young girl’s struggle to regain her passion and find a new peace is told lyrically through verse that captures the beauty and mystery of India and the ancient bharatanatyam dance form. This is a stunning novel about spiritual awakening, the power of art, and above all, the courage and resilience of the human spirit. Veda, a classical dance prodigy in India, lives and breathes dance—so when an accident leaves her a below-knee amputee, her dreams are shattered. For a girl who’s grown used to receiving applause for her dance prowess and flexibility, adjusting to a prosthetic leg is painful and humbling. But Veda refuses to let her disability rob her of her dreams, and she starts all over again, taking beginner classes with the youngest dancers. Then Veda meets Govinda, a young man who approaches dance as a spiritual pursuit. As their relationship deepens, Veda reconnects with the world around her, and begins to discover who she is and what dance truly means to her.

Book excerpt: From bloodthirsty conquest to exotic romance, stereotypes of Spain abound. This new volume by distinguished historian Stanley G. Payne draws on his half-century of experience to offer a balanced, broadly chronological survey of Spanish history from the Visigoths to the present. Who were the first “Spaniards”? Is Spain a fully Western country? Was Spanish liberalism a failure? Examining Spain’s unique role in the larger history of Western Europe, Payne reinterprets key aspects of the country’s history. Topics include Muslim culture in the peninsula, the Spanish monarchy, the empire, and the relationship between Spain and Portugal. Turning to the twentieth century, Payne discusses the Second Republic and the Spanish Civil War. The book’s final chapters focus on the Franco regime, the nature of Spanish fascism, and the special role of the military. Analyzing the figure of Franco himself, Payne seeks to explain why some Spaniards still regard him with respect, while many others view the late dictator with profound loathing. Framed by reflections on the author’s own formation as a Hispanist and his evaluation of the controversy about “historical memory” in contemporary Spain, this volume offers deeply informed insights into both the history and the historiography of a unique country.
