Negotiating the Place for a Dance
Stavělová, Daniela
The text focuses on the observation of the process during the features of traditional culture are transformed for the purposes of the present urban context. The study explores a rural carnival (called masopust in Czech Republic) in some districts of Prague since the early 1990s into a present festivity involving local people as participants. The process of rethinking carnival and (re)constructing the dance and music repertory is studied from the perspective of urbanisation. The contribution is based on the observation of the dichotomy of public/private space appropriated by the dance. Its goal is to disclose the role of the recent music and dance repertory in the process of local identity building.
