It is the first book to present a broad-ranging analysis of cultural dance in Australia. Topics include adaptation of dance customs within a post-migration context, multicultural festivals, prominent performers, historiographies and archives, and the relative positionings of cultural and Western theatrical dance genres. The book offers a decolonized appraisal of dance in Australia, critiquing past and present praxes and offering suggestions for the future. Overall, it underscores the highly variegated nature of the Australian dance landscape and advocates for greater recognition of amateur community dance practices. \u003ci\u003eCultural Dance in Australia\u003c\/i\u003e makes a substantial contribution to the catalogue of work about immigrants and cultural dance styles that continue to be preserved in Australia. \u003ci\u003eThisbook \u003c\/i\u003ewill be of interest to scholars of dance, performance studies, migration studies and transnationalism.\u003cb\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Palgrave Macmillan\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 2023-11-30\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Paperback\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9789811959028\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-981-19-5900-4\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 210.0cm x148.0cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 284.0\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer Nature Singapore","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45385656860812,"sku":"9789811959028","price":143.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9789811959028.jpg?v=1765569026","url":"https:\/\/fh90cf-fv.myshopify.com\/products\/9789811959028","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
