Klappentext zu „Devotional Hindu Dance “
This book sheds light on the purpose of Hindu dance as devotional. Dr. Sabrina D. MisirHiralall explains the history of Hindu dance and how colonization caused the dance form to move from sacred to a Westernized system that emphasizes culture. Postcolonialism is a main theme throughout this text, as religion and culture do not remain static. MisirHiralall points to a postcolonial return to Hindu dance as a religious and sacred dance form while positioning Hindu dance in the Western culture in which she lives.

Pressezitat
"Sabrina MisirHiralall explores the intersections of dance, religion, and culture by reflecting on her own experiences with dance as a performer and educator. The book is grounded in a method MisirHiralall calls 'self-study,' ... . the self-reflective nature of the book provides the reader with a look at a very personal journey with dance ... . her self-reflective approach and self-study method for teaching dance may be of interest to those in the field of education."
