The need to discuss, question and rethink dance history has not diminished in the decade since Rethinking Dance History first published. Everyone involved with dance creates and carries with them a history, and this book explores the ways in which these histories can be used in making dance - from memories that establish identity and form resonances, to re-invention or preservation through shared and personal heritages.
