About
I am a political theorist writing my thesis about the relationship between politics and dance. I am interested in how the process of the politicization of dance affected the politics in dance. I focus on Nietzsche's writing on dance as well as chorality in Greek tragedy and their reception in the work of Isadora Duncan and Martha Graham. Other research interests include: continental philosophy, history of political thought and reception theory.
