Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not
used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad
quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are
images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to
keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the
original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain
imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made
available for future generations to enjoy.

PAPERBACK FOR SALE IN AFRICA ONLY African dance is discussed here
in its global as well as local contexts as a powerful vehicle of
aesthetic and cultural exchange and influence. To date, scholars
have tended, with a few exceptions, to write about African dance in
primarily ethnographic terms. This collection seeks to challenge
this pattern and expand dance research by engaging with the
aesthetics and socio-political impact of dance for communities in
and out of Africa in an increasingly global context. Contributors
to this issue look at the impact that specifically situated
indigenous dance forms have had on the development of newforms
locally, and the reciprocal impact of local and international
infrastructures, including funding bodies, tourism and festivals.
African Theatre 17 examines how dance is contributing to a
particularly African interculturalism, while analysing the issues
of representation of Africa in a postcolonial context. Articles
address the efficacy of dance to engage audiences with disavowed
issues regarding gender, sexuality and dis/ability both within and
beyond Africa. Highlights include a dance photo essay on F.O.D.
Gang's 2017 site-specific street performance "Untitled" in Lagos, a
new non-themed section, and the playscript Lunatic! by Zimbabwean
playwright Thoko Zulu. Volume Editors: YVETTE HUTCHISON &
CHUKWUMA OKOYE Series Editors: Yvette Hutchison, Reader, Department
of Theatre & Performance Studies, University of Warwick;
Chukwuma Okoye, Reader in African Theatre & Performance
University of Ibadan; Jane Plastow, Professor of African Theatre,
University of Leeds.
