Medieval Dance, Madness, Ecstasy: A Workshop
Presented by Mary Channen Caldwell
- This event has passed.
When does movement spill over from something we recognize as dance as an artistic and social form to something else? Something potentially otherworldly, whether ecstatic or demonic? This workshop explores medieval dance practices that went outside conventional and socially accepted frameworks, playing with the many meanings of bodily movement (and sometimes also sound) in the premodern period. Lunch will be provided.
A LUDUS workshop, presented in collaboration with the Program of Medieval Studies, Department of Music, and Department of Art & Archaeology.
