DANC 375 - Feminist Ethnography and Performance


Semester Offered: Second Semester
Full Course
Credits: 4 Credits
Attribute: 4HU, CD, WINT

This course explores transnational feminist epistemologies alongside performance studies research methods, investigating the impact of a feminist approach to ethnography in performance studies, and the opportunities afforded by performance analysis to a feminist ethnographic practice. Texts exemplifying feminist ethnographic methods in dance and performance studies explore intercontinental connections and themes based on media, geography, and collective aesthetic and political impulses. Case studies cover topics addressed by feminist artists in their work (ritual, motherhood, gaze theory, sexual violence, lesbian identity, war, among others).
