View Vol. 11 No. 1 (2025): Historiographies on the move

The aim of this dossier is to critically analyze and discuss the links between dance, body, history and memory. To investigate, test and design new methodologies for the history of local dance in dialogue with theories already installed on the subject, which come mainly from the Dance Studies of the Global North, and include interdisciplinary approaches in dialogue with cultural studies, art history, cultural history and performance studies, etc.. We consider that making history and making dance or choreography would not be as opposed as they are usually understood, for this reason we problematize the notions of archive, reconstruction and heritage. Dance as a mode of representation will allow us to intervene and disrupt its own canon, and to test formulations from other disciplines in terms of the specific historical practices of dance.
