Arts-Based Education
China and Its Intersection with the World
Häftad, Engelska, 2019
833 kr
Skickas inom 5-8 vardagar
Core texts addressing creativity in a number of contexts show that creativity as a scientific subject has received principally the attention of Western scholars. Is this due to the fact that Western cultures are more creative or sensitive to creativity than the Eastern cultures? The editors strongly believe that this is more due to the differences in understanding and practising creativity in the West and East than to an Eastern indifference to creativity.Arts-Based Education: China and Its Intersection with the World investigates the field of arts-based educational practices and research. It argues that reflections on these themes must necessarily be reframed and re-read beyond the limits of colonialist oppositions and suggests a constructive and reflexive approach to theory and methodology, which takes into account intercultural and critical perspectives in these studies.This volume is the tangible product of the acknowledgement that China and Chinese culture deserves a more systematic and up-to-date dissemination through recent studies that bring together the arts, learning and creativity. It is clustered around two themes: (1) China and its communication with the world through arts-based education in international contexts, and (2) the development of arts education in China.

The genealogy of racism dates back to 610 AD when Islamic jihadists invented whiteness as a religious justification for deracinating and enslaving African people out of East Africa and into Southeastern Europe for more than 1,300 years.Through a new interdisciplinary research methodology, Ancestorology, a taxonomy of Western cultural and visual productions of history are juxtaposed with the social stratifications of the African Diaspora to arrive at a new interpretation of the historical narrative.Decolonzing Arts-Based Methodologies: Researching the African Diaspora provokes critical analytical thought between the historical narrative and current public discourse in Western societies where people of African descent exist. The importance of this work begins the process of unlearning Western ways of knowing and seeing through hegemonic productions of knowledge and by assigning new values to humanity’s collective memory.

Through this book, the author shares the nomadology of Alys-we searching for the Ideal School. Fed up with the System, traditional mainstream education directed by neoliberalism and high-stakes testing, Alys travelled to over 180 places of learning/schools in 23 countries that were educating differently. Through performative autoethnographic-we the author shares these embodied experiences in poems, vignettes, journaling and ethnodrama. Alys realised that the Ideal School is an oxymoron and she argues that schools and schooling, even within innovative education, are not the future for learning.By developing the edge-ucation and sharing stories from the ‘gems’ that currently exist in places of learning/schools, there is the potentiality and hope for a paradigm shift. The book encourages everyone to become School Tourists themselves. Performing School Tourism is a mediation between creativity, arts, learning and teaching, leading to change as it helps shape the identity of those performing School Tourism and allows them to add these new experiences and understandings of the possibilities for education to the Earth-we, the collective consciousness of the world. Read this book to follow Alys’ journey as they share stories and trouble different innovative pedagogies (including Steiner Waldorf, Progressive, Democratic, and Montessori). The reader can choose their own adventure, following the rhizomatic multiple voices of Alys-we.

Skickas inom 5-8 vardagar
Scholarship on artistic output during second wave feminism (SWF) primarily reflects art-genres such as visual art, performance art, literature, and poetry. In The Women’s Music Movement: Music as Feminist Praxis, 1973–1980, Paul Ambrose Shaw III contends the women’s music movement (WMM) was a vibrant locus of feminist activity during SWF but received comparatively less scholarly attention. Specifically, Shaw conducts a content analysis of five songs recorded between 1973 and 1980. As such, he draws on musical elements and structures, poetic and lyrical devices, personal insights from the artists, and feminist theory to explore the following important questions: What can we learn about second wave feminist movement through the lens of the women’s music movement? Was the women’s music movement, as some scholars and activists assert, simply a cultural and lifestyle movement, or an impactful locus of feminist praxis? Through a detailed analysis of five songs recorded by stalwarts of WMM—Meg Christian, Cris Williamson, Ferron, Holly Near, and Linda Tillery—Shaw argues for the importance of WMM as a vibrant center of struggle, growth, and creativity that serves as a model for modern social movement cultural activity.

The magical images and protest tools of Artemisia Gentileschi to Amanda Yates Garcia, also known as the Oracle of LA, are revealed in this book. Art Witches have created powerful images that resonate with beauty and activism, from Italian courtrooms in the 1500s to binding spells for the US Trump presidency in 2016. For the first time, this book connects the genealogy of the image of the witch from historical to contemporary artists. It intertwines artistic purpose with social ills and equity issues and probes how this narrative is exposed and curated in museums and memorials focused on witchcraft. The collection of images, artist interviews, and a case study of the two artists that make up Hilma’s Ghost provide recognition and a new context for this important and rapidly growing art movement.

The book presents a novel analysis supporting the idea that a theatre ensemble is not just an entity but an emergent process. Through the lens of a theatre company's performative, creative, organizational, and activist practices, the ensemble is conceptualized in its collective becoming. This socio-historical and new materialist analysis of a European theatre company (ATIR) over thirty years highlights how a group's performative capacity to make-ensemble stimulates its organizational and social processes. With a commitment to participation, listening, and horizontality, the ensemble is shown to challenge the structures of capitalism, and fosters a vision of hope for societies.

What does it mean to live a life of beauty and liberation? In an era marked by divisive debates over curriculum, justice, and inclusion in education, this book calls us to return to a fundamental question: our shared humanity.This book is an integrative work weaving together the lived experiences of educators, critical pedagogy, aesthetic theories, sublimity, creativity, and feminist philosophies of social justice and antiracism. It advances our understanding of oppression by applying aesthetic frameworks to analyze, discuss, and dismantle dehumanizing systems.Aimed at educators, higher education faculty, and interdisciplinary scholars, this book bridges theory and practice. It provides actionable strategies for creating classrooms that encourage critical thinking, creative expression, and sustained engagement with liberatory principles. Examining how beauty and sublimity influence our understanding of justice and oppression, this book offers a fresh perspective on fostering transformative learning environments.Beauty has much to teach us about liberation. This text invites readers to explore the complexities of oppression while uncovering how education can leverage beauty and aesthetics to cultivate resilience, courage, and solidarity. For those committed to aligning educational practices with justice and human flourishing, this book offers both inspiration and a roadmap for change.

Visibility in the transgender community and trans studies has increased in the last decade. Conversations around trans history and memory have often been focused on historical individuals or capturing descriptions of memorable events. There have been few conversations that look at how those histories are shared down and through the trans community. This book uses the events related to the Compton’s Cafeteria Riots and the subsequent creation of the Trans Cultural District in San Francisco’s Tenderloin neighbourhood as focal point as remembered through the eyes of six trans artists and activists and then expanding that reach into the archival and artistic practices across the US, Mexico, and Canada. Redefining trans practice and trans ethos can challenge, create, and reinterpret public memorialization. In doing so, notions what collective memory and public history are transform how we understand and envision the lived experiences trans people today.

Eleonora Duse was one of the greatest actresses of all time, beloved by audiences all over the world and considered Sarah Bernhardt's only rival. But she was also something else: an artist who brought a new vision to the stage. Placing themes like vulnerability, suffering, and pity at the center of the theater, she transformed theatre from entertainment or artistic admiration into an intense existential experience. She was capable of using both extraordinary and low-literary value plays to evoke these deep emotions. This book casts light on Duse's scenic techniques, strategies, motivations and needs. It reconstructs her revolution and analyses the efffect she had spectators – an efffect so intense that it bordered on magic
