  • Dance and Teachers of Dance in Eighteenth-Century Bath
    DANCE AND TEACHERS OF DANCE IN EIGHTEENTH-CENTURY BATH Trevor Fawcett Compared with the instructor in music, drawing, languages, or any other fashionable accomplishment, the dancing master (and, in time, his female counterpart) enjoyed an oddly ambiguous status in 18th-century society. Seldom of genteel birth himself, and by education and fortune scarcely fit to rank even with the physician or the clergyman, he found himself the acknowledged expert and authority in those very social graces that were sup­ posedly the mark and birthright of the polite world alone. Ostensibly he taught dance technique: the execution of the minuet and formal dances, the English country dances in all their variants, the modish cotillion, and the late-century favourites - the Scottish and Irish steps. But while for his pupils a mastery of these skills was indeed a necessary prelude to the ballroom, the fundamental importance of a dancing master lay in the coaching he provided in etiquette, in deportment, and in the cultivation of that air of relaxed assurance so much admired by contemporaries. There was general agreement with John Locke's view that what counted most in dancing was not learning the figures and 'the jigging part' but acquiring an apparent total naturalness, freedom and ease in bodily movement. Clumsiness equated with boorish­ ness, vulgarity, rusticity, bad manners, bad taste. On several occasions the influential, taste-forming Spectator saw fit to remind its readers about the value of dancing, 'at least, as belongs to the Behaviour and an handsom Carriage of the Body'. Graceful manners and agreeable address ranked among the most reliable indicators of good breeding, and it was 'the proper Business of a Dancing-Master to regulate these Matters' .1 In theory, it might have been argued, only the more humbly born social aspirants 28 TREVOR FAWCETT ought to have needed the services of 'those great polishers of our manners', the dancing masters.

  • Practicing the Four Seasons of Ethnography Methodology While Searching for Identity in Mexico. the Qualitative Report, 17(Art
    The Qualitative Report 2012 Volume 17, Article 79, 1-21 http://www.nova.edu/ssss/QR/QR17/pitts.pdf Practicing the Four Seasons of Ethnography Methodology while Searching for Identity in Mexico Margaret Jane Pitts University of Arizona, Tucson, AZ, USA This narrative is an account of my field experiences and challenges practicing González’s (2000) Four Seasons of Ethnography methodology in Mexico City. I describe the complexities and tensions inherent in managing two scientific paradigms: Western scientific logic vs. a more organic ontology. The experiential knowledge produced in this text is useful to ethnographers who face questions of identity and ethics in the field. To evoke a sense of experience, I re-present the ethnography for the reader in the way it unfolded for me—sometimes painful, other times insightful, oftentimes both. This dual text exposes my struggles as emergent ethnographer grappling with issues of voice, identity, and representation while describing scenes from life in Mexico drawn from observations and narrative interviews. At the forefront of this text are the methodological choices and ontological experiences of the Four Seasons of Ethnography methodology, while observations and conversations in Mexico City form the backdrop. Keywords: Ethnography, Identity, Four Seasons Methodology, Mexico, Ontology, Place Experienced ethnographers express with much heart that “doing” ethnography is as much about learning and experiencing other cultures as it is about your own; it is as much about others as it is about selves (see for example, Ellis, 2007; González, 2000; Goodall, 2000). It is about the interconnection between others and selves. I have come to know not only this tenet of ethnography, but also to understand it in an experiential manner.
