This book aims to articulate international approaches to the making, performing and theorising of site-based dance. Drawing on perspectives from three practitioner-academics based in three distinct world regions – Europe, North America and Oceania – the authors explore a range of practices that engage with sociocultural, political, ecological and economic discourses, and demonstrate how these discourses both frame and inform processes of site dance making as well as shape the ways in which such interventions are conceived and evaluated.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eIntended for artists, scholars and students, \u003cem\u003e(Re)Positioning Site Dance\u003c\/em\u003e is an important addition to the theoretical discourse on place and performance in an era of global sociopolitical and ecological transformation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eList of Illustrations\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIntroduction: (Re)positioning site dance: Local acts, global perspectives\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eKaren Barbour, Victoria Hunter, Melanie Kloetzel\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSection One: Historical lineages and contemporary concerns: Tactics, encounters and contexts\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eChapter 1: From recontextualisation to protest: 50 years of site dance practice in North America\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eMelanie Kloetzel\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eChapter 2: Activism, land contestation and place responsiveness\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eKaren Barbour\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eChapter 3: Sited English folk dance as a form of site dance: Heritage, tradition and resistance\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eVictoria Hunter\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSection Two: Practice into theory: Materials, dialogues and affect\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eChapter 4: Dancing gardens, Phenomenology and affective practices \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eKaren Barbour \u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eChapter 5: Material touchstones: Weaving histories through site-specific dance performance\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eVictoria Hunter\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eChapter 6: Lend me an ear: Dialogism and the vocalising site \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eMelanie Kloetzel\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSection Three: Moving towards the global: Ethics, morality and marginalisation\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eChapter 7: Performing parks and squares\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eVictoria Hunter\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eChapter 8: Site-specific dance and environmental ethics: Relational fields in the Anthropocene\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eMelanie Kloetzel\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eChapter 9: Dancing in Foreign places: Practices of place and tropophilia\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eKaren Barbour\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eConclusion\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eReferences \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIndex\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Intellect Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51042270773591,"sku":"9781783209989","price":72.86,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1739\/5799\/files\/9781783209989.jpg?v=1750953713","url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/re-positioning-site-dance-local-acts-global-perspectives-9781783209989","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
