Poetics of Dance: Body, Image, and Space in the Historical Avant-Gardes - Oxford Studies in Dance Theory
Brandstetter, Gabriele (Professor, Professor, Insitute for Theater Studies, Free University of Berlin, Berlin)
The book looks at dance at the beginnings of the 20th century, the time during which modern dance first began to make its radical departure from the aesthetics of classical ballet. Author Gabriele Brandstetter traces modern dance's connection to new innovations and trends in visual and literary arts to argue that modern dance is in fact the preeminent symbol of modernity.
