Summary:Futures of Dance Studies is an outrageously arrogant title. Yet this anthology of essays by 28 early-career scholars demonstrates the vitality and dynamism of dance studies, a field that for several decades seemed always emergent and finally has arrived. The authors are dancers, historians, ethnographers, theorists, and activists. Their topics range broadly across time and space, and their methods are equally capacious. Their writing is rigorous yet passionate, and together they articulate why dance matters to inquiries across the arts and humanities.

Description
Summary:A collaboration between well-established and rising scholars, Futures of Dance Studies suggests multiple directions for new research in the field. Essays address dance in a wider range of contexts--onstage, on screen, in the studio, and on the street--and deploy methods from diverse disciplines. Engaging African American and African diasporic studies, Latinx and Latin American studies, gender and sexuality studies, and Asian American and Asian studies, this anthology demonstrates the relevance of dance analysis to adjacent fields.
