内容提要:
"Dances of Jośe Liḿon and Erick Hawkins examines staging's of masculinity, whiteness, and Latinidad in the work of US modern dance choreographers, Jośe Liḿon (1908-1972) and Erick Hawkins (1908-1994). Focusing on the period between 1945 to 1980, this book analyzes Liḿon and Hawkins' work during a time when modern dance was forming new relationships to academic and governmental institutions, mainstream markets, and notions of embodiment. The pre-war expressionist tradition championed by Liḿon and Hawkins' mentors faced multiple challenges as ballet and Broadway complicated the tenets of modernism and emerging modern dance choreographers faced an increasingly conservative post-war culture framed by the Cold War and Red Scare. By bringing the work of Liḿon and Hawkins together in one volume, Dances of Jośe Liḿon and Erick Hawkins accesses two distinct approaches to training and performance that proved highly influential in creating post-war dialogues on race, gender, and embodiment. This book approaches Liḿon and Hawkins' training regimes and performing strategies as social practices symbiotically entwined with their geo-political backgrounds. Liḿon's queer and Latino heritage is put into dialogue with Hawkins' straight and European heritage to examine how their embodied social histories worked co-constitutively with their training regimes and performance strategies to produce influential staging's of masculinity, whiteness, and Latinidad"--
