Embodying Mexico examines two performative icons of
Mexicanness--the Dance of the Old Men and Night of the Dead of Lake
P tzcuaro--in numerous manifestations, including film, theater,
tourist guides, advertisements, and souvenirs. Covering a
ninety-year period from the postrevolutionary era to the present
day, Hellier-Tinoco's analysis is thoroughly grounded in Mexican
politics and history, and simultaneously incorporates
choreographic, musicological, and dramaturgical analysis.
Exploring multiple contexts in Mexico, the USA, and Europe,
Embodying Mexico expands and enriches our understanding of complex
processes of creating national icons, performance repertoires, and
tourist attractions, drawing on wide-ranging ethnographic,
archival, and participatory experience. An extensive companion
website illustrates the author's arguments through audio and video.
