Description

In What a Body Can Do, Ben Spatz presents a rigorous theory regarding embodied technique as a form of knowledge. This work explores how viewing technique as both training and research contributes to modern academic debates, specifically concerning the role of practice within the university setting and the concept of practice as research. By drawing on diverse perspectives from the sociology of knowledge, phenomenology, dance studies, and enactive cognition, Spatz demonstrates that technique serves as a significant area of historical and ongoing research. This text is relevant to those studying physical culture, the performing arts, and the nuances of everyday life. It provides a framework for understanding how physical practice functions as a method of inquiry, offering new perspectives for scholars and practitioners in theatre, dance, and performance studies.
