Tango Lessons: Movement, Sound, Image, and Text in Contemporary Practice by Mari

Description: Tango Lessons by Marilyn G. Miller Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Hardcover Condition Brand New Description Tango Lessons is an interdisciplinary collection of essays examining the many varied perspectives that tango provides on Argentinas social, cultural, and intellectual history from the late nineteenth century to the early twenty-first. Publisher Description From its earliest manifestations on the street corners of nineteenth-century Buenos Aires to its ascendancy as a global cultural form, tango has continually exceeded the confines of the dance floor or the music hall. In Tango Lessons, scholars from Latin America and the United States explore tangos enduring vitality. The interdisciplinary group of contributors-including specialists in dance, music, anthropology, linguistics, literature, film, and fine art-take up a broad range of topics. Among these are the productive tensions between tradition and experimentation in tango nuevo, representations of tango in film and contemporary art, and the role of tango in the imagination of Jorge Luis Borges. Taken together, the essays show that tango provides a kaleidoscopic perspective on Argentinas social, cultural, and intellectual history from the late nineteenth to the early twenty-first centuries.Contributors.
