Dancers in Exile and Politics of Place: A Critical Study of Contemporary Iranian Dance
E-bookPDFDigital Watermark [Social-DRM]E-book
EUR41,99

Product description

This book is a critical study of Iranian dance and the works of Iranian-American female dancers in exile. Focusing on the study of contemporary Iranian dance through analysis of the choreographies of three female dancers in diaspora (namely Aisan Hoss, Shahrzad Khorsandi, and Banafsheh Sayyad), this research is among the first of its kind. Elaheh Hatami investigates the transformation of professional Iranian dance and discusses the role of relocation and displacement in its performance. She argues that Iranian dance and Iranian female dancers have always been in exile - not only in a physical sense, but also in the metaphorical sense of exile implying foreignness, exclusion, and marginalization.

Absolutly emotional!
This book took me through ups and downs. I found myself shaking my head a few times, then take a deep breath and go on reading.

This is not a shitstorm book that is intended to spread rumors. I think Britney talks very reflectively about how she experienced everything back then and how she felt about it.

I can recommend this book to everyone. It doesn't matter if you're a Britney fan or not. Because her story is one that should be heard and read!
As far as book titles are concerned, Jennette McCurdy's memoir surely has one of the most provocative ones. When the actress rose to fame through the Nickelodeon shows iCarly and Sam & Cat, nobody could have imagined the turmoil behind the scenes - her family's financial insecurity, a very strict upbringing, dehumanizing auditions, emotional abuse from her mother, and immense pressure from the show's producer. How do you undo a lifetime of manipulation, and destructive coping mechanisms, and land to stand on your own feet? In I'm Glad My Mom Died, she delves deep into these uncomfortable topics with refreshing frankness and surprisingly dark humor. Every chapter closes with a metaphorical gut punch that makes putting the book down nearly impossible. An infuriating, yet highly captivating read and one of the best memoirs to come out of 2022.
Was für ein Buch!
Es liest sich einfach so weg, hat mir wahnsinnig viel Lust auf's Weiter- und Wiederentdecken der Musik mit dem eigentlich so irreführenden Begriff Krautrock gemacht und erklärt nachvollziehbar, warum diese innovativen, neuen Klänge so nur in Deutschland entstehen konnten.

Christoph Dallach hat unzählige Interviews mit nahezu allen Musiker:innen aus dem Inneren der Szene geführt und deren O-Töne zu einer großartigen Collage montiert, die sich in verschiedenen Kapiteln nicht nur mit den bekanntesten Bands und Künstler:innen, sondern auch mit deren Elternhäusern, der deutschen Nachkriegsgesellschaft, WGs, Jazz, Drogen, Reisen und der allgemeinen Musiklandschaft auseinandersetzt. Das Ergebnis ist nicht nur für Musikinteressierte extrem spannend, sondern auch von hoher kultur-und zeitgeschichtlicher Relevanz.
Fantastisch.

Er ist einer der größten Stars Hollywoods, Rapper, Kino-Held und der "Prinz von Bel-Air". Doch der Strahlemann hatte immer mit ganz eigenen Problemen und Widrigkeiten zu kämpfen: Selbstkritisch und reflektiert führt Will Smith in "Will" durch sein Leben und lässt dabei auch seine Schwächen, Zweifel, Fehler, Macken nicht aus. Ein erfrischendes, fesselndes Buch, das beeindruckend den Menschen hinter der Promi-Fassade zeigt.
Whoa. What a devastating read! A dystopia in the darkest sense of the word - without a happy ending whatsoever (that's how I interpret it at least).
A must-read classic.

You'll never think of rats the same way again!
