Rani, Maxwell Xolani Greyling, Eduard Dance Includes bibliographical references. The dancers of Nyanga have taken note of the extent to which modernity has caused them to adjust and transform the movement quality and execution of their dances to create new urban African social dances. In addition, the urban dancers' experiences in the field have affected and influenced their craft. These perspectives have served as a point of departure for a re-evaluation of the role and predicaments of African social traditional dance in an urban environment, with specific reference to Nyanga township and raises questions around the manner in which modern agencies such as Christianity, education, multimedia, fashion and geography influence South African social traditional dance. 2015-01-03T18:08:29Z 2015-01-03T18:08:29Z 2013 Master Thesis Masters MMus http://hdl.handle.net/11427/11155 eng application/pdf School of Dance Faculty of Humanities University of Cape Town |
