The Choreography of Everday Life: Rudolf Laban and the Making of Modern Movement Abstract “The Choreography of Everyday Life: Rudolf Laban and the Making of Modern Movement,” explores how an inscription technology developed in German expressionist dance found unlikely application in some of the key institutions of twentieth-century modernity. Called “Labanotation,” it used a complicated symbology to record human bodily movement on paper. Initially used to coordinate mass-dance spectacles in Weimar Germany, the system was quickly adopted in the United States and the United Kingdom in fields angingr from management theory to psychiatry to anthropology. My research analyzes the widespread appeal of this seemingly quixotic tool and to situates it within broader literatures on modern technology, art, media, and politics. Ultimately, I argue that Labanotation succeeded so spectacularly because it promised to reconcile the invented and the authentic, the individual and the group, and the body and the machine at moments threatened by massive social upheaval. Laban’s work thus not only served to preserve a fading past, but opened up new possibilities for the literal choreographing of modern life.

Susan Lindee, Janice and Julian Bers Professor, History and Sociology of Science Beth Linker, Associate Professor, History and Sociology of Science THE CHOREOGRAPHY OF EVERYDAY LIFE: RUDOLF LABAN AND THE MAKING OF MODERN MOVEMENT COPYRIGHT 2016 Whitney Elaine Laemmli iii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Over the past seven years, I have never regretted my decision to join the Department of History and Sociology of Science at the University of Pennsylvania. Both the Department’s sense of community and its uniquely creative vision of the field produced a graduate career that I simply could not have envisioned elsewhere. My dissertation committee members, in particular, provided incredible support for an unusual project from its earliest days. My advisor, John Tresch, has been a model of intellectual curiosity and generosity, an example I hope to follow in my own career. Beth Linker’s astute insights about the history of medicine, the body, and disability have been matched only by her kindness and her willingness to offer advice about all of life’s dilemmas. Susan Lindee shaped many of my most foundational intellectual experiences in the history of science, and her analytical sharpness and savvy continue to inspire me. I would also like to thank Ruth Schwartz Cowan for introducing me to the history of technology and encouraging me to pursue work on dance, and Rob Kohler for advocating “thinking big” about the field. Finally, my thanks to the late Riki Kuklick, whose unstinting enthusiasm for scholarship and life I miss daily. Penn’s graduate student community is matchless in its camaraderie, and I am grateful for its continued dedication to making the third floor of Cohen one of the most intellectually dynamic spaces on campus. Every member of the Department enriched and shaped my thinking, but I would particularly like to thank Rachel Elder, Andy Hogan, Mary Mitchell, Elaine LaFay, Allegra Giovine, and Matthew Hoffarth for their support, iv encouragement, and friendship. Special thanks also to Nellwyn Thomas, who made my first two years here truly special, to Brittany Shields, for doing and knowing everything exactly one year before I do, and to Sarah Campana, for making Philadelphia a home. My debt to Matthew Hersch—for his unconditional belief, endless editing, and inhuman persistence—is difficult to measure, but I hope to repay him over many, many years. Early in my graduate career, I was fortunate to receive a Social Science Research Council Dissertation Proposal Development Fellowship in Art/Science Studies, which provided me with both early research funding and intellectual guidance. Peter Galison and Caroline Jones were inspiring leaders and colleagues Jeremy Blatter, Stephanie O’Rourke, Tim Prizer, Christy Spackman, Rebecca Uchill, Julia Yezbick, Lee Douglas, Fiona Greenland, David Baylis, Amanda Bevers, and Eszter Polonyi transformed how I thought about my incipient project. Thanks also to the University of Pennsylvania’s Dissertation Research Fellowship for funding the bulk of my archival research and to the ACLS/Mellon Dissertation Completion Fellowship for supporting my final year of writing. Both a six-month predoctoral fellowship and several recent workshops at the Max Planck Institute for the History of Science provided invigorating intellectual experiences. My heartfelt thanks to Lorraine Daston for the invitation and for fostering a place so full of vitality and good cheer. Thanks too to Christine von Oertzen, David Sepkowski, Veronika Lipphardt, Rebecca Lemov, John Carson, Harun Kucuk, Sigrid Leyssen, Rohan Deb Roy, Elena Aronova, Elena Serrano, Skuli Sigurdsson and Nina Lerman for feedback and fun. I am also particularly grateful to have met Judy Kaplan, Jenny Bangham, and Sarah Blacker, who have been both true friends and astute interlocutors. v Over the past year, I have also been fortunate to be associated with Harvard University’s Department of History of Science, which provided a congenial home as I finished the project; particular thanks go to Jenna Tonn and the entire DAWGs writing group. Finally, I could not have completed this project without the help of many dedicated, creative archivists. In particular, I would like to thank Sharon Maxwell at the University of Surrey NRCD Collections, Jane Fowler at the Trinity Laban Conservatoire of Music and Dance, Todd Harvey at the Library of Congress’ American Folklife Center, Mei-Chen Lu at the Dance Notation Bureau, and the entire staff of the New York Public Library for the Performing Arts. vi ABSTRACT THE CHOREOGRAPHY OF EVERYDAY LIFE: RUDOLF LABAN AND THE MAKING OF MODERN MOVEMENT Whitney Elaine Laemmli John Tresch “The Choreography of Everyday Life: Rudolf Laban and the Making of Modern Movement,” explores how an inscription technology developed in German expressionist dance found unlikely application in some of the key institutions of twentieth-century modernity.

  • Taiwanese Eyes on the Modern: Cold War Dance Diplomacy And
    Taiwanese Eyes on the Modern: Cold War Dance Diplomacy and American Modern Dances in Taiwan, 1950–1980 Dissertation Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Tsung-Hsin Lee, M.A. Graduate Program in Dance Studies The Ohio State University 2020 Dissertation Committee Hannah Kosstrin, Advisor Harmony Bench Danielle Fosler-Lussier Morgan Liu Copyrighted by Tsung-Hsin Lee 2020 2 Abstract This dissertation “Taiwanese Eyes on the Modern: Cold War Dance Diplomacy and American Modern Dances in Taiwan, 1950–1980” examines the transnational history of American modern dance between the United States and Taiwan during the Cold War era. From the 1950s to the 1980s, the Carmen De Lavallade-Alvin Ailey, José Limón, Paul Taylor, Martha Graham, and Alwin Nikolais dance companies toured to Taiwan under the auspices of the U.S. State Department. At the same time, Chinese American choreographers Al Chungliang Huang and Yen Lu Wong also visited Taiwan, teaching and presenting American modern dance. These visits served as diplomatic gestures between the members of the so-called Free World led by the U.S. Taiwanese audiences perceived American dance modernity through mixed interpretations under the Cold War rhetoric of freedom that the U.S. sold and disseminated through dance diplomacy. I explore the heterogeneous shaping forces from multiple engaging individuals and institutions that assemble this diplomatic history of dance, resulting in outcomes influencing dance histories of the U.S. and Taiwan for different ends. I argue that Taiwanese audiences interpreted American dance modernity as a means of embodiment to advocate for freedom and social change.

  • 2014 Latent Tradition in Modern Dancing
    IV LISBON SUMMER SCHOOL FOR THE STUDY OF CULTURE Latencies: Europe 1914 - 2014 Latent tradition in modern dancing: The body politics of “The Green Table” (Cristina Graça) Abstract In the turmoil of the Weimar Republic German choreographer Kurt Jooss created The Green Table (1932), a farsighted ballet that critically looked back at the atrocities and suffering inflicted by of World War I and anticipated the events of World War II. Although Jooss´s piece drew directly from the ongoing political climate, the narrative was placed in an untraceable location and time, thus rendering it a timeless, universal protest against war that made The Green Table artistically and aesthetically resilient. In this paper we will analyze how Jooss expressed political opinions and conveyed social commentary, claiming his share of the sensible in Rincière´s words, through both experimental and traditional movement (modern dance and ballet), and how dance as a non-verbal art form used its instrument, the human body, to convey images of tradition, repression and cultural symbolisms of race and gender. Key words: gendered body; tradition; political commentary; representational power. 1 Quite often dance tends to be thought of as apolitical. Yet it goes with no contention that dancing bodies and the movement they perform are in their own way political, enabling the artist to intervene in the public sphere. Even when it apparently becomes abstract and self-referential, as in some Balanchine ballets, or in Merce Cunningham´s choreographies, dance still conveys political

  • Rhetoric for Becoming Otherwise

Anders © 2009 Abram D. Anders Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy August 2009 ii The dissertation of Abram D. Anders was reviewed and approved* by the following: Richard M. Doyle Professor of English and Science, Technology and Society Dissertation Advisor Chair of Committee Jeffrey T. Nealon Liberal Arts Research Professor of English Xiaoye You Assistant Professor of English and Asian Studies Robert A. Yarber, Jr. Distinguished Professor of Art Robert R. Edwards Edwin Erle Sparks Professor of English and Comparative Literature Department of English Graduate Director *Signatures are on file in the Graduate School. iii ABSTRACT Rhetoric for Becoming Otherwise begins with the Isocratean premise that thought, speech, writing are best understood as bridges between the already said of language and the emerging circumstances that are the occasions for their production. This argument is rehearsed across a variety of domains and instances following Isocrates exhortation that the rhetorician or practitioner of philosophia can only model the movement of discourse without expecting to provide any “true knowledge” or “absolute theory” for how to encounter the problematics of an endlessly deferred present. As a matter of rhetoric, becoming otherwise is the continually renewed task of creating something new from the resources of language and for the demands of an ever deferred present—Presocratics versus Classicists (Chapter 1). As a matter of health, becoming otherwise is the necessity of overcoming limitation and suffering in order to achieve new norms of health and pursue the ever changing opportunities of a self‐developing capacity for producing new capacities—Normativity versus Normalization (Chapter 2).

For more information, please contact [email protected]. 1 The apocalypse has been written about as many times as it hasn’t taken place, and imagined ever since creation mythologies logically mandated destructive counterparts. Interest in the apocalypse never seems to fade, but what does change is what form that apocalypse is thought to take, and the ever-keen question of what comes after. The most classic Western version of the apocalypse, the millennial Judgement Day based on Revelation – an absolute event encompassing all of humankind – has given way in recent decades to speculation about political dystopias following catastrophic war or ecological disaster, and how the remnants of mankind claw tooth-and-nail for survival in the aftermath. Desolate landscapes populated by cannibals or supernatural creatures produce the awe that sublime imagery, like in the paintings of John Martin, once inspired. The Byronic hero reincarnates in an extreme version as the apocalyptic wanderer trapped in and traversing a ruined world, searching for some solace in the dust.

For this purpose, the article initially presents a historical line of Tanztheater, its attributes and interrelationships, closing with the specific characteristics of four works of the choreographer, created in the period comprising the initial two decades (1974-1989) of her fruitful production, and which were watched live by the author of the text.
