Description for Moving (Across) Borders: Performing Translation, Intervention, Participation
Paperback. Editor(s): Brandstetter, Gabriele; Hartung, Holger. Num Pages: 250 pages, 40 colour illus. BIC Classification: AN. Category: (UP) Postgraduate, Research & Scholarly. Dimension: 225 x 150. .
As performative and political acts, translation, intervention and participation are movements that take place across, along and between borders. Such movements traverse geographic boundaries, affect social distinctions, and challenge conceptual categorisations -- while shifting and transforming lines of separation themselves. This book brings together choreographers, movement practitioners and theorists from various fields and disciplines to reflect upon such dynamics of difference. From their individual cultural backgrounds they ask how these movements affect related fields such as corporeality, perception, (self-)representation, and expression.
