Dancing in the theatre of Europe in the long 18th century

The 14th Oxford Dance Symposium will address a wide range of issues on dancing in the European theatre in the long 18th century. Although we welcome papers on dance music in the theatre and the performance of dance in opera, it is proposed to cover topics such national trends, dancer biography, dance and magic, the development of dance costumes, theatre design, and dance iconography.

We seek papers of 20 minutes, with abstracts of approximately 200 words. Powerpoint presentations are welcome.
