Abstract

"The Art of Movement: Rudolf Laban's Unpublished Writings offers new perspectives on the thinking and practice of Rudolf Laban - one of the pioneers of modern European dance and movement analysis. A wealth of Laban's previously untranslated writings broadens our understanding of his work through new perspectives on his thinking and practice. Alongside these key primary sources, interviews with Laban's family and colleagues and editorial commentaries shed new light on the significance of his life and career. Laban's own texts also offer further elaboration of the key themes of his work - eukinetics, choreutics, lay dance, pedagogy and dance notation. This essential companion to The Laban Sourcebook is an ideal resource for any students or scholars of modern dance, dance studies, dance history and movement analysis looking for a deeper understanding of this seminal figure in their field. The final two chapters of the book Expanding the Concept of Effort and Reports from Laban Lawrence Industrial Rhythm are available from www.routledge.com/9781032225067 along with Bonus eResources"--
