Call for Contributions Italy and the Dance Call for Contributions Italy and the Dance Dance in Italy, Italian Dance in Europe 1400 - 1900, for Barbara Sparti (1932 - 2013) 25 - 29 May 2016 Burg Rothenfels am Main, Germany With our next symposium we would like to honour Barbara Sparti, one of the leading dance researchers of the 20 th century, who died in 2013. In keeping with the central emphasis of her research activities, the highly diverse dance culture of Italy - from the final phase of the Middle Ages to the time of the Risorgimento - is to be the main theme of the symposium. One central thematic area is to be the dance styles and forms which evolved in different regional, cultural and institutional contexts in Italy, their historical and stylistic development, their dissemination in Europe, their influence on other national dance styles, and their role (as style, as form, as cultural practice) in transmitting Italian culture in Europe. We likewise wish to examine the influences which emanated from other dance cultures (e.g. France) and left corresponding traces in Italy. In this context, light is also to be shed on the artists who had a decisive share in this: Italian dancers, dancing masters, choreographers and teachers who worked in Euro- pean palaces and major cities, spread Italian dance art in Europe and, conversely, absorbed a diversity of influences. A further focus of the symposium will be on the Italian contribution to the develop- ment of theatrical dance in Europe. Here we wish to concentrate on the characteris- tics of the Italian style and its distinguishing features vis-à-vis other “national” styles, but not neglecting the relationships between theatrical dance and theatre, especially Italian opera and also the influence of the Commedia dell’arte (e.g. with reference to the use of acrobatics and pantomime) on theatrical dance. +++ What influence did the French Bassedanse have on Italian dance style? +++ How widespread were Italian dances in Germany around 1500? +++ How successful were Italian dancing masters in spreading their dance culture in Europe in the 16 th century? +++ What effect did Italian dance style have on the French Ballets de cour? +++ What is considered as “typically Italian” in dance theory discourses? +++ What insights into Italian dance culture are provided by iconography? +++ What significance did dance have in Italian opera? +++ What role was played by Italian dancers and choreographers in European theatres? +++ To what extent were wandering troupes involved in dance culture transfer in Europe? +++ How strongly did “foreign” styles influence Italian dance culture in the 18 th and 19 th centuries? +++ What traces of the original were left in the Baroque Forlana or Monfrina in European ballrooms? +++ What role was played by Italian folk dance in European theatrical art? +++ How did political movements such as the "Risorgi- mento" influence Italian dance culture? +++ In addition to furthering the scholarly discussion, it is a particular goal of the sympo- sium to present to interested dancers and dance enthusiasts the state of dance research today. The symposium will offer a wide range of activities from lectures, workshops, demonstrations, a book and music exhibition to evening dancing and a festive ball with live music. Contributions not yet presented on the topics listed above are welcome. A publication is planned and will be available at the symposium. Contribution categories: Our homepage: Lectures: Length: 25 - 30 min, followed by ca. 10 min discussion. www.historical-dance-symposium.org The lectures can also include short dance demonstrations.

Up till now, the complexity of the characters and the wise webbing of the drama, scattered of symbolic moments, widening its study, are the cause of divergent interpretations by the scholars. An example, exemplifying for all the discussions, could be the famous problem of Ibsen’s “feminism”. In the chapter “The poetry of feminism” in her book Ibsen’s women the American scholar Joan Templeton (2001) tries to say a definitive word about the sense to attribute to the drama. She quotes an impressive series of evidences with great accuracy, coming not only from works, but also from specific events and stands of which Ibsen was protagonist, to be opposed to only one point in favour of the detractors of the feminist vision about A Doll’s House .

  • Music for Dancing
    Chapter Music for Dancing 4 FOCUS Western Dance Music World Dance Music POINTS Estampie Balinese Gamelan Dance Suite Tibetan Buddhist Skeleton Dance Waltz Italian Saltarello Ballet African Ritual Dances Square Dance Celtic Reel Dance, the art form that finds its expression through bodily movement, has been an inspiration for music from ancient times to the present. Whether music was the cata- lyst for dance or whether dance existed before music is a question that may never be answered definitively, but since such a large portion of the music in existence is dance music it deserves our attention and a thoughtful examination. The written record of dance is not as old as the written record of music. The earli- est descriptive texts on dance date from the fifteenth century. Understandable manu- scripts of music date from nearly a thousand years earlier. References to dance are as old as Old Testament Bible stories and the ancient Greeks wrote of dance, but what the movements that constituted those dances looked like is lost to us. Understanding what the dances looked like or how they were performed is not our purpose in studying them in a music class, rather, we will be examining dance music for its musical con- tent, such as its form and rhythmic characteristics, and its purpose in a social context. RHYTHM AND METER IN DANCE MUSIC Any discussion of dance must begin with rhythm since that musical element is the foundation of dance. As was mentioned in Chapter 1, rhythm is the aspect of music that animates it, makes it feel like it is alive and vibrant.

    ‘TRADIZIONE E CONTAMINAZIONE’: AN ETHNOGRAPHY OF THE CONTEMPORARY SOUTHERN ITALIAN FOLK REVIVAL Stephen Francis William Bennetts BA (Hons), Australian National University, 1987 MA, Sydney University, 1993 Graduate Diploma (Communication), University of Technology, Sydney, 1999 This thesis is presented for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy of The University of Western Australia, School of Social Sciences, Discipline of Anthropology and Sociology 2012 ‘Pizzicarello’, Tessa Joy, 2010. 1 2 I have acquired the taste For this astringent knowledge Distilled through the Stringent application of the scientific method, The dry martini of the Intellectual world, Shaken, not stirred. But does this mean I must eschew Other truths? From ‘The Bats of Wombat State Forest’ in Wild Familiars (2006) by Liana Christensen 3 4 ABSTRACT The revival since the early 1990s of Southern Italian folk traditions has seen the ‘rediscovery’ and active recuperation, especially by urban revivalist actors, of le tradizioni popolari, popular traditional practices originating in peasant society which are still practiced by some traditional local actors in remote rural areas of Southern Italy. This thesis draws on interviews, participant observation and historical research carried out mainly during fieldwork in Rome and Southern Italy in 2002-3 to present an ethnography of the urban revivalist subculture which has been the main driving force behind the contemporary Southern Italian folk revival. In the course of my enquiry into why the movement has emerged, I combine both synchronic and diachronic perspectives, as well as a phenomenological analysis of revivalist motivation and agency, to explore the question of why contemporary urban revivalists have begun to take an interest in the archaic and marginalised cultural practices of rural Southern Italy.

  • Letter from the President Dear IFAFA Members, Since I Last Wrote You, Several Very Important Developments Concerning IFAFA Have Taken Place
    NEWSLETTER OF THE ITALIAN FOLK ART FEDERATION OF AMERICA Editor: Jackie Capurro IFAFA Website: www.ItalianFolkArtFederation.org VOLUME 28 2009 No. 1 Letter From the President Dear IFAFA Members, Since I last wrote you, several very important developments concerning IFAFA have taken place. I’d like to share these developments with you, and hope I can keep your attention until the final few paragraphs, where I will reveal the most important of them all – information regarding our upcoming IFAFA conference! First, let me just express how extremely pleased I am at the number of responses I’ve received over the past few months in regards to our latest registration drive. This year, IFAFA has more than quadrupled the amount of revenue received via donations and dues over last year. Donations alone, from our most generous givers, reached an amount just under $1000! In these tough economic times, that level of giving far exceeded our expectations, and simply goes to show one thing – that the desire to preserve our Italian heritage is ultimately unaffected by life’s challenges. Along with the incoming registration cards, came several wonderful notes and letters from individuals wishing IFAFA well, ex- pressing their gratitude to our organization for keeping the Italian culture so strong here in America. I’d like to thank those mem- bers for their positive message, and let them know that we will continue on that path for many years to come. In related news, it is my pleasure to announce that IFAFA was recently awarded a $1000 mini-grant for its cultural work.
