No longer offered. It’s in Waterloo’s scanned calendars from 1981–82 to 1994–95 (before that, 1979–80 to 1980–81 used the number for Philosophy and Criticism Part 1); the 1995–96 to 2023–24 calendars are on ucalendar.
This course offers students a chance to enhance their abilities to write and talk about the dance experience. Examples of dance criticism from the past two centuries are used in tandem with films, videos, slides, live performance and guest lecturers to sharpen perceptions.
As printed in the 1988–89 to 1994–95 calendars, read by OCR; the scanned page is the original. Later calendars (1995–96 on) aren’t on uwloo.
