O’Shea, Chair This dissertation presents a critical examination of dance and multiple movements across the Coromandel in a pivotal period: the long eighteenth century. On the eve of British colonialism, this period was one of profound political and economic shifts; new princely states and ruling elite defined themselves in the wake of Mughal expansion and decline, weakening Nayak states in the south, the emergence of several European trading companies as political stakeholders and a series of fiscal crises. In the midst of this rapidly changing landscape, new performance paradigms emerged defined by hybrid repertoires, focus on structure and contingent relationships to space and place – giving rise to what we understand today as classical south Indian dance. Far from stable or isolated tradition fixed in space and place, I argue that dance as choreographic ii practice, theorization and representation were central to the negotiation of changing geopolitics, urban milieus and individual mobility.

  • Bhardwaj Ph.D
    CONFIGURING THE ‘CONTEMPORARY’: CHOREOGRAPHIC PROCESSES OF NAVTEJ JOHAR, PADMINI CHETTUR, AND JAYACHANDRAN PALAZHY Meghna Bhardwaj Ph.D. Candidate, School of Arts and Aesthetics, Jawaharlal Nehru University Delhi, India INTRODUCTION Peter Osborne argues, The root idea of ‘Contemporary’ as a living, existing, or occurring together in time…is derived from the medieval Latin ‘Contempornaeous’, the English ‘Contemporary’ dates from around mid-seventeenth century (Osborne, 2013: pp 15). He points out a sense of up-to-datenss (Osborne, 2013: pp 16) that is demanded of this term in its popular usage, and characterizes ‘contemporaneity’ with transnationality and coming together of different times (Osborne, 2013: pp 17). In the light of Osborne’s understanding of the term ‘Contemporary’, and also with Andy Horwitz’s reference to Contemporary performance as time-based art with its origins in dance and theatre (Horwitz, 2011), the attempt here is to pinpoint the central concern of the ‘Contemporary’ in dance/performance which is embodiment of ‘multiplicity’ and ‘interactivity’ of the current times. In a context of growing interconnections between bodies and spaces, the paper intends to read a sense of Heterotopia in the ‘Contemporary’ performance spaces. Michel Foucault, in one of his lectures in 1967, defined Heterotopia as a space of otherness. It is neither here nor there, and creates mixed experience. For example, a conversation over a phone call or the moment when one looks at oneself in the mirror (translated by Jay Miskowiec, 1984). The heterotopic performance spaces may exhibit the ability to question the terms 1 © 2016 Bhardwaj Journal of Emerging Dance Scholarship and order of ‘centre’ and ‘periphery’.

Bharatha’s Natyashastra which is popularly styled as Panchama Veda [2] speaks about 108 dance postures which constitute the basic structure of any classical dance and women whose mind as well as physic that is best suitable for this dance divine, naturally inclined towards dance from the inception of this universe.

  • The Debaprasad Das Tradition: Reconsidering the Narrative of Classical Indian Odissi Dance History Paromita Kar a Dissertation S
    THE DEBAPRASAD DAS TRADITION: RECONSIDERING THE NARRATIVE OF CLASSICAL INDIAN ODISSI DANCE HISTORY PAROMITA KAR A DISSERTATION SUBMITTED TO THE FACULTY OF GRADUATE STUDIES IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY GRADUATE PROGRAM IN DANCE STUDIES YORK UNIVERSITY TORONTO, ONTARIO DECEMBER 2013 @PAROMITA KAR, 2013 ii Abstract This dissertation is dedicated to theorizing the Debaprasad Das stylistic lineage of Indian classical Odissi dance. Odissi is one of the seven classical Indian dance forms recognized by the Indian government. Each of these dance forms underwent a twentieth century “revival” whereby it was codified and recontextualized from pre-existing ritualistic and popular movement practices to a performance art form suitable for the proscenium stage. The 1950s revival of Odissi dance in India ultimately led to four stylistic lineage branches of Odissi, each named after the corresponding founding pioneer of the tradition. I argue that the theorization of a dance lineage should be inclusive of the history of the lineage, its stylistic vestiges and philosophies as embodied through its aesthetic characteristics, as well as its interpretation, and transmission by present-day practitioners. In my theorization of the Debaprasad Das lineage of Odissi, I draw upon Pierre Bourdieu's theory of the habitus, and argue that Guru Debaprasad Das's vision of Odissi dance was informed by the socio-political backdrop of Oriya nationalism, in the context of which he choreographed, but also resisted the heavy emphasis on coastal Oriya culture of the Oriya nationalist movement. My methodology for the project has been ethnographic, supported by original archival research.
