Für einen Sonderheft des Dance Chronicle (Lynn Matluck Brooks, Joellen Meglin(Hg.)) können Forschungsberichte zum Thema PRESERVING DANCE AS A LIVING LEGACY eingereicht werden.
Während die Tanzwelt immer weiter zu ihren äußersten Grenzen vordringt, ist es gleichsam notwendig, die Geschichte zu erinnern, auf welcher der heutige Tanz aufbaut. Einerseits haben solche Organisationen wie Dance Heritage Coalition, National College Choreography Initiative, Balanchine Trust und Dance Notation Bureau und viele andere mehr Konzepte und Richtlinien entwickelt, um das Erbe der Tänze, Performances und Choreographen lebendig zu halten. Andererseits beginnen Choreographen ebenfalls festzustellen, dass Pressearchive, Videoaufzeichnungen und philosophische Überlegungen Teil ihres “Werkzeugkasten” sind.
Die Manuskripte durchlaufen ein Double-Blind-Peer-Review und können zu Lynn Matluck Brooks (lynn.brooks@fandm.edu) oder Joellen Meglin at jmeglin@temple.edu geschickt werden. Hinweise zum Layout könnten den Instruktionen für Autoren (Instructions for Authors) entnommen werden: www.informaworld.com/smpp/title
A CALL FOR RESEARCH ARTICLES
>
> PRESERVING DANCE AS A LIVING LEGACY
>
> As the dance world rushes forward into ever more sharply cutting
> edges of investigation, we remain mindful of the history on which
> today’s dance is built. Such organizations as the Dance Heritage
> Coalition, National College Choreography Initiative, the Balanchine
> Trust, and the Dance Notation Bureau, among many others, supply
> frameworks and guidance for keeping dances, performances, and
> choreographers’ legacies alive. Today’s choreographers, too,
> recognize that press archives, video recordings, and statements of
> philosophy are part of their toolbox.
> We invite research submissions to a special issue of Dance Chronicle
> devoted to “Preserving Dance as a Living Legacy,” edited by Lynn
> Matluck Brooks and Joellen Meglin. Papers might address subject
> matter such as, but not limited to, topics suggested below:
>
> Are choreographers interested in preserving their own works for
> posterity? Should they be interested? Which methods have
> choreographers used to record their own works?
>
> What are some known models for maintaining an artistic legacy? How
> do these work, and why have they been successful? What might make
> these models more effective?
>
> What is gained, what is lost, and what changes as works pass from
> the original artists’ domain to performance by groups distant from
> that creative impulse?
>
> How do archives – personal, company, public, performing arts –
> support the work of preservation and reconstruction?
>
> How have international markets, media representations, and/or the
> Internet influenced the survival of particular dance works?
>
> Which kinds of dance are most frequently preserved and
> reconstructed? Why is this the case? What are we missing in our
> focus?
>
> How can we educate today’s dancers about the value of learning the
> dances of the past? Why should we so educate them?
>
> How do current audiences respond to reconstructions of dances from
> past periods? What changes or adaptations must be made to appeal to
> current audiences and what issues are involved in such changes?
>
> All manuscripts will receive double blind peer review. Submissions
> will be accepted any time up to March 25, 2010. Send manuscripts or
> inquiries to Lynn Matluck Brooks at
