Beschreibung

Dance Research Methodologies: Ethics, Orientations, and Practices captures the breadth of methodological approaches to research in dance in the fine arts, the humanities, the social sciences, and the natural sciences by bringing together researchers from around the world writing about a variety of dance forms and practices.

This book makes explicit the implicit skills and experiences at work in the research processes by detailing the ethics, orientations, and practices fundamental to being a researcher across the disciplines of dance. Collating together approaches from key subdisciplines, this book brings together perspectives on dance practice, dance studies, dance education, dance science, as well as dance research in cross-, multi-, and interdisciplinary fields. Practice-based chapters cover methodological approaches that provide rich examples of how research design and implementation are navigated by practicing scholars. Dance Research Methodologies also includes apractical workbook that helps readers to decide upon, refine, and enact their research, as well as develop ways in which to communicate their process and outcomes.

This vital textbook is a valuable resource for research faculty interested in interdisciplinary conversation and practice, emerging scholars honing their methodological approaches, graduate students engaged in research-based coursework and projects, and advanced undergraduates.

Rezensionen

Dance Research Methodologies has been awarded the Ruth Lovell Murray Book Award (2024) by the National Dance Education Organization.

"Candelario and Henley offer an array of reading possibilities that could be used across courses to introduce and explore research in its multitude of approaches seen in dance, simultaneously challenging thinking about research and practice... This text will surely become a vital addition to academics and students of dance." Monica J. Cameron Frichtel, PhD, Assistant Professor, University of Delaware, USA

"Both inspiring and instructive, Dance Research Methods captures the diversity of today's dance scholarship and offers an array of methodological possibilities

that will surely lead to research trajectories yet to be discovered. Reminding us that dance theory and dancemaking practices are always intersecting and shaping the myriad ways that we create and present new knowledge, experienced and aspiring researchers using this text will enter into an ever-widening conversation about praxis inquiry, artful research practices, the importance of ethical decision-making, and the joys of pursuing research as a creative and artistic enterprise." Penelope Hanstein, MFA, PhD, Cornaro Professor of Dance Emerita, Texas Woman's University, USA

"While some of the meticulous and rigorously curated essays contain pre-requisite standard approaches that are nourishing, there are many where scholarship itself is critiqued and stretched to include an invaluable selection of voices, grammars, registers, provocations, and contexts, making this a standout book for scholars in the pursuit of inclusive (as yet elusive) dance research methodologies. Imbuing this impressive assembly of work with a sustained call for pervasive ethics is a compelling masterstroke for our times." Jay Pather, Director, Institute for Creative Arts, Professor, Centre for Theatre, Dance and Performance Studies, University of Cape Town, South Africa

"Dance Research Methodologies includes comprehensive and detailed step-by-step methods, conversations, and personal reflections on 'how to' do dance research across myriad themes. Providing a wealth of different approaches in an accessible format, it is an invaluable resource for dance researchers, from undergraduate to post-doctoral." Sarah Whatley, Director, Centre for Dance Research, Coventry University, UK

"The book functions like a set of hyperlinks that organize leaping off points to follow up in references and ideas across the diverse field of dance research. This wide-ranging collection highlights differences between 'research' versus 'creating work' or 'rehearsing,' and introduces archival research for where no archive exists, prompts for writing as dancing, ethics as research method, and other gems." Jonathan W. Marshall, Western Australian Academy of Performing Arts, Edith Cowan University, Australia
