Description
The Oxford Dictionary of Dance provides an in-depth reference to all aspects of dance performance. Written by two leading dance writers, Debra Craine and Judith Mackrell, this second edition covers classical ballet to modern, flamenco to hip-hop, and includes detailed entries on technical terms, steps, styles, works, and countries. The dictionary features over 2,600 entries, including biographies of dancers, choreographers, and companies. It also explores the diverse dance world, from traditional forms like ballet to new languages invented by fresh generations of choreographers. With an emphasis on performance, this reference provides both fact and analysis on a wide range of subjects. The latest edition includes 150 new entries, charting developments in digital technology, the rise of new genres, and the arrival of a new generation of dancers and choreographers.
