Produktbeschreibung
An investigation of rhythm from the perspective of critical theory, philosophy and art Rhythm and Critique presents twelve new essays from a range of specialists to define, contextualise and challenge the concepts of rhythm and rhythmanalysis, and includes newly translated materials from Rudolf Laban and Henri Meschonnic. The book begins with a genealogy of rhythm as it occurs through critical theory literatures of the twentieth century, enabling the reader to situate philosophical and contemporary readings that further define rhythm as a critical term and mode of analysis. In placing emphasis upon rhythm as cultural technique and locating its significance for the analysis of the everyday, the book offers a clear and engaging overview of a fascinating theoretical field. It helps map a range of histories and approaches and considers how rhythm might now emerge more forcefully and pertinently as a critical framing for contemporary culture. Paola Crespi is a Visiting Research Fellow at the Topology Research Unit at Goldsmiths. Sunil Manghani is Professor of Theory, Practice and Critique at Winchester School of Art, University of Southampton.
