Csárdás Dance Company: A History
In Csárdás Dance Company, author Richard Graber provides an engaging twenty-year retrospective on the story of how an ethnic dance company served as a vehicle for preserving his cultural heritage through dance. Founding the dance company that would give birth to many unique experiences that would last him and others a lifetime, Graber shares what sparked his motivation, how the company began and later transitioned into a school, and why he eventually suspended operations. Highlighting the most memorable experiences-and also the many individuals who helped the organization achieve success along the way-explore how Graber navigated the challenges of running a nonprofit organization in today's economic climate, and discover how these experiences have helped an individual with a vision continue his work with nonprofit arts organizations today.
Dance, Space and Subjectivity
This book contains readings of American, British and European postmodern dances informed by feminist, postcolonialist, queer and poststructuralist theories. It explores the roles dance and space play in constructing subjectivity. By focusing on site-specific dance, the mutual construction of bodies and spaces, body-space interfaces and 'in-between spaces', the dances and dance films are read 'against the grain' to reveal their potential for troubling conventional notions of subjectivity associated with a white, Western, heterosexual able-bodied, male norm.
Dictionary of the British English Spelling System
This book will tell all you need to know about British English spelling. It's a reference work intended for anyone interested in the English language, especially those who teach it, whatever the age or mother tongue of their students. It will be particularly useful to those wishing to produce well-designed materials for teaching initial literacy via phonics, for teaching English as a foreign or second language, and for teacher training. English spelling is notoriously complicated and difficult to learn; it is correctly described as much less regular and predictable than any other alphabetic orthography. However, there is more regularity in the English spelling system than is generally appreciated. This book provides, for the first time, a thorough account of the whole complex system. It does so by describing how phonemes relate to graphemes and vice versa. It enables searches for particular words, so that one can easily find, not the meanings or pronunciations of words, but the other words with which those with unusual phoneme-grapheme/grapheme-phoneme correspondences keep company. Other unique features of this book include teacher-friendly lists of correspondences and various regularities not described by previous authorities, for example the strong tendency for the letter-name vowel phonemes (the names of the letters ) to be spelt with those single letters in non-final syllables.
