Description

Explore a transnational history of modern dance through the lens of China in When Words Are Inadequate. Part of the Oxford Studies in Dance Theory Series, this work by Nan Ma expands the scope of China studies by examining cultural history through bodily movement and dance modernism. The text provides a deep look into the lives and choreographies of four Chinese modern dance pioneers: Yu Rongling, Wu Xiaobang, Dai Ailian, and Guo Mingda. By tracing their connections to Western figures such as Isadora Duncan, Mary Wigman, Rudolf von Laban, and Alwin Nikolais, this book offers a unique perspective on the global movement of dance and its impact on modern Chinese identity.
