New Directions in Dance Studies and Digital Humanities
Abstract
Dance Studies and Digital Humanities are contemporary trends that have the potential to transform the scholarship about dance. Dance Studies have continuity in relation to Сultural Studies. For all the diversity of the kinds of dance to which researchers address, for all the variety of methods (from semiotics and psychoanalysis to postcolonial studies), Dance Studies are united by an attitude of investigating how dance participates in the formation of identities, and identities are considered to be in conflict. Digital Humanities involves the use of digital methods for source collection, processing, and analysis to raise new research problems from the horizon of the humanities. Creative process with digital technologies; the documentation of dance in the form of annotated video recordings; historical research based on digital archives and thematic databases are considered to be the main forms of digital humanities in dance researches. Addressing digital humanities promise to be productive within the framework of the Priority 2030 strategic leadership program for the transformation of the educational and research environment of the Vaganova Ballet Academy.
