Eye-opener for academics!By Katie Stahl-KovellSrinivasan takes on the transnational Indian dancing body to crack-open labor--specifically undocumented labor. Her archival work visibilizes people and their labor that was previously invisible. Srinivasans archival work is brilliantly woven into her ethnographic analyses as a practitioner and as an observer of Indian dance.Read this! By far--this is the most brilliant piece of ethnographic work I have read this year! Enjoy!4 of 4 people found the following review helpful. Riveting readBy CustomerPriya Srinivasan brilliantly traces the influence of Indian nautch girls and more on American modern dance and mines gems from archives dating back to the 1880. I have been raving about this to my academic colleagues --anyone who is interested in dance history. Indian diaspora. gender studies. performance arts (the list goes on!). will love this.
