As mentioned previously I have been looking through a variety of literature, as my subject of enquiry is so large I have struggled to whittle it down to 3. But now I finally have!
My first piece of literature is an article from Princeton university (Center for Arts and Cultural Policy Studies) titles 'How the arts impact communities' by Joshua Guetzkow June 2002.
The piece of literature is targeting the fact that previous literature involving the art and communities is too vague. For example what is actually meant by 'The Arts' and/or 'Community'. It lays out the issues that need to be looked at more thoroughly, looking at studying this kind of work as well as showing the impact literature has on the arts. This piece of literature has really helped me to look for more useful pieces of literature. Also looking through theoretical and methodical issues. It has thorough explanations of 'The arts' and 'Communities' and what they could potentially refer to when looking at different pieces of literature. This piece also provides a good argument against what previous literature has lacked, giving me a good counter argument to which I can compare in my inquiry.
My second piece of literature is another article from The European Journal of Social & Behavioural Sciences: 'Teaching dance in the 21st century: A literature review' by Anu soot and ele viskus, 2014 (this is an extract).
This article looks at the way teaching has progressed over the years in dance. Showing the development of 'the teacher teaches the class' to what we now do a lot more of, teaching them to inspire them for their own ideas and development. This article looks at a variety of themes such as the holistic approach to somatic dance to other art forms. Looking through these different themes, it really explains the progress of dance through the years and shares the benefits of the changes in dance throughout the years. Perfect for my inquiry.
My last piece of Literature is the book 'An introduction to Community Dance Practice' Edited by Diane Amans, 2008.
This book was recommended to my by a colleague. I had read such great reviews I decided to purchase it. I have only had the time to skim read it at the moment and I can tell this is going to be a great piece of thorough literature for my inquiry. Starting off with the full explanations and interpretations of community dance then leading into the history of it. As my inquiry is about the changes of community dance through the years this part is going to help me a lot. It also takes you through the issues involved with community dance, but also how it has helped a variety of people and ages. It has so many references to different companies and literature to which I can then use as more of a focus. I cannot wait to read through it thoroughly and gain a lot of helpful research from it.
Any thoughts please feel free to comment.
