| dc.description.abstract | This study will consider the connections between the fields of literature and dance on the basis of human experience. Previous scholarship regarding the connection between dance and literature addresses the root in the everyday experience of works created in both fields, yet privileges written texts over movement texts. Through reference to works detailing previous connections drawn between literature and dance, the relationship between written word and physical relationships between bodies, the capacity of both fields in current work to be subversive and transformative, and choreographic research with a cast of dancers, this study further investigates the ways in which literature and dance are connected. The point of emphasis of this study is that the use of language and physical movement serve as the parallel mediums for literature and dance to create thought-provoking work rooted in the human experience. | en_US |
