It will introduce you to key areas of study such as aesthetics, the ethics of dance, phenomenology, restaging, and re-enactment, questions of authenticity, and dance as cultural history, with theorists ranging from Descartes to Foucault among others. The program will also equip you with transferable skills across the arts and humanities. The degree includes a research methods module entitled Ways of Knowing, which is taken by all Dance master's students, the core module History, Philosophy and Dance, which is taught in a small bespoke group, and a dissertation module. Flexibility is built into the program, allowing you to choose additional optional units to suit your needs and interests.
