520 _aThis multifaceted book investigates the place of dance and performance in the development, confirmation and subversion of conceptions of Europe from the 20th century up until today. Its contributions unravel the nexus between Europe and dance from historical and contemporaneous perspectives, and testify to an understanding ofEurope based on different constructions of (alternative) societies. Through the threefold themes of identities, languages and institutions, this volume reveals the complexity of this topic. It investigates theconstruction of European identities in and through performance and their intersection with local or global cultures; explores versatile modelsof European multilingualism and linguistic diversity on stage; andconsiders the constructions of Europe, in dance, as conditioned byinstitutional and socio-political frameworks. The first volume of itskind, it offers a collection of previously unpublished chapters by aninternational and interdisciplinary group of scholars. It will makeessential reading for anyone interested in the fields of dance,performance and European Studies, and serve as an important springboardfor future research in this area. (Font: Editor)
