Beschreibung: | Includes bibliographical references (pages 387-409) and index Empire of Ecstasy offers a novel interpretation of the explosion of German body culture between the two wars: nudism and nude dancing, gymnastics and dance training, dance photography and criticism, and diverse genres of performance from solo dancing to mass movement choirs. Karl Toepfer presents this dynamic subject as a vital and historically unique construction of "modern identity," which stimulated often contradictory impulses, desires, and ambitions in participants and enthusiasts. Through the presentation and analysis of unpublished archival material (including many little-known photographs) and the reclamation of forgotten discourses of fashion, gymnastics, nudism, and the visual arts, he investigates the process of constructing an "empire" of appropriative impulses toward ecstasy. Toepfer presents the work of well-known figures such as Rudolf Laban, Mary Wigman, and Oskar Schlemmer, as well as many obscure but equally fascinating practitioners of German body culture. His book is certain to become required reading for historians of dance, body culture, and modernism Figure one -- Early nackttanz -- Nacktkultur -- Feminist nacktkultur -- Erotic nacktkultur -- Nacktballet -- Schools of bodily expressivity -- Solo dancing -- Pair dancing -- Group dancing -- Theatre dancing -- Mass dancing -- Music and movement -- Dance criticism -- Dance as image -- Ecstasy and modernity |

spelling | Toepfer, Karl Eric Verfasser aut Empire of ecstasy nudity and movement in German body culture, 1910-1935 Karl Toepfer Berkeley University of California Press ©1997 1 Online-Ressource (xvii, 422 pages) txt rdacontent c rdamedia cr rdacarrier Includes bibliographical references (pages 387-409) and index Empire of Ecstasy offers a novel interpretation of the explosion of German body culture between the two wars: nudism and nude dancing, gymnastics and dance training, dance photography and criticism, and diverse genres of performance from solo dancing to mass movement choirs. Karl Toepfer presents this dynamic subject as a vital and historically unique construction of "modern identity," which stimulated often contradictory impulses, desires, and ambitions in participants and enthusiasts. Through the presentation and analysis of unpublished archival material (including many little-known photographs) and the reclamation of forgotten discourses of fashion, gymnastics, nudism, and the visual arts, he investigates the process of constructing an "empire" of appropriative impulses toward ecstasy. Toepfer presents the work of well-known figures such as Rudolf Laban, Mary Wigman, and Oskar Schlemmer, as well as many obscure but equally fascinating practitioners of German body culture. His book is certain to become required reading for historians of dance, body culture, and modernism Figure one -- Early nackttanz -- Nacktkultur -- Feminist nacktkultur -- Erotic nacktkultur -- Nacktballet -- Schools of bodily expressivity -- Solo dancing -- Pair dancing -- Group dancing -- Theatre dancing -- Mass dancing -- Music and movement -- Dance criticism -- Dance as image -- Ecstasy and modernity Geschichte 1900-2000 Geschichte 1910-1935 gnd rswk-swf HEALTH & FITNESS / Exercise bisacsh Geschichte Physical education and training Germany History 20th century Dance Germany History 20th century Nudism Germany Sociological aspects History 20th century Nudity in dance Germany History 20th century Body image Germany Freikörperkultur (DE-588)4018338-5 gnd rswk-swf Aktdarstellung (DE-588)4120855-9 gnd rswk-swf Tanz Motiv (DE-588)4184440-3 gnd rswk-swf Erotische Kunst (DE-588)4152857-8 gnd rswk-swf Tanz (DE-588)4059028-8 gnd rswk-swf Deutschland Deutschland (DE-588)4011882-4 gnd rswk-swf Deutschland (DE-588)4011882-4 g Freikörperkultur (DE-588)4018338-5 s Tanz (DE-588)4059028-8 s Geschichte 1910-1935 z 1\p DE-604 Tanz Motiv (DE-588)4184440-3 s 2\p DE-604 Erotische Kunst (DE-588)4152857-8 s 3\p DE-604 Aktdarstellung (DE-588)4120855-9 s 4\p DE-604 http://search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&scope=site&db=nlebk&db=nlabk&AN=42325 Aggregator Volltext 1\p cgwrk 20201028 DE-101 https://d-nb.info/provenance/plan#cgwrk 2\p cgwrk 20201028 DE-101 https://d-nb.info/provenance/plan#cgwrk 3\p cgwrk 20201028 DE-101 https://d-nb.info/provenance/plan#cgwrk 4\p cgwrk 20201028 DE-101 https://d-nb.info/provenance/plan#cgwrk |
