Examining social and popular dance forms from a variety of critical and cultural perspectives
"Contributors to this important new collection offer scholarship that helps us to hear, feel, and imagine that transformation through the ongoing story of American social and popular dance practices."--Dance Research Journal
“Malnig makes a significant contribution to the field of dance studies with this impressive, long-overdue investigation into the rich world of vernacular dance traditions. . . . Highly recommended.”--Choice
"This extraordinary collection of essays brings to the forefront the transformative power of social and popular dance as well as its profound impact in shaping American culture and history over the past two centuries."--Dance Chronicle
"This well-researched and balanced classroom tool looks inside genres like ragtime, dance marathons and krumping, and its iconic photographs will help readers further understand each style."--Dance Teacher
“An incredibly needed volume for undergraduate and graduate students, teachers, and advisors in the field of dance. These essays afford compelling glimpses into communities dancing in particular places and times; the authors provide nuanced understandings of dancing as a means of forming identity and community.”--Ann Dils, coeditor of Moving History/Dancing Cultures: A Dance History Reader
“This invaluable volume covers an impressive range of genres, illuminating the liveliness and diversity of social dance. The book makes a unique contribution at a time when the field of dance studies is expanding to include forms other than Euro-American concert dance. An excellent book and a godsend for classroom use.”--Tricia Henry Young, director of the graduate program in American dance studies, Florida State University
Julie Malnig is an associate professor at the Gallatin School of Individualized Study at New York University and the author of Dancing Till Dawn: A Century of Exhibition Ballroom Dance.
