BOOKS ON CHOREOGRAPHY & CHOREOGRAPHERS:

Jerome Robbins, A Life in Dance, by Wendy Lesser, Yale University Press, October 9, 2018. Jerome Robbins (1918–1998) was born Jerome Wilson Rabinowitz and grew up in Weehawken, New Jersey, where his Russian-Jewish immigrant parents owned the Comfort Corset Company. Robbins, who was drawn to dance at a young age, resisted the idea of joining the family business. In 1936 he began working with Gluck Sandor, who ran a dance group and convinced him to change his name to Jerome Robbins. He went on to become a choreographer and director who worked in ballet, on Broadway, and in a film. His stage productions include West Side Story, Peter Pan, and Fiddler on the Roof. In this deft biography, Wendy Lesser presents Jerome Robbins’s life through his major dances, providing a sympathetic, detailed portrait of her subject.

Embodied Philosophy in Dance: Gaga and Ohad Naharin’s Movement Research (Performance Philosophy) by Einav Katan-Schmid, Publisher: Palgrave Macmillan. Representing the first comprehensive analysis of Gaga and Ohad Naharin's aesthetic approach, this book follows the sensual and mental emphases of the movement research practiced by dancers of the Batsheva Dance Company. Considering the body as a means of expression, Embodied Philosophy in Dance deciphers forms of meaning in dance as a medium for perception and realization within the body. In doing so, the book addresses embodied philosophies of mind, hermeneutics, pragmatism, and social theories to illuminate the perceptual experience of dancing. It also reveals the interconnections between physical and mental processes of reasoning and explores the nature of physical intelligence. https://www.amazon.com/Embodied-Philosophy-Dance-Naharins-Performance/dp/113760185X/ref=sr_1_2?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1542060307&sr=1-2&keywords=ohad+naharin
