Exploring the Potential for Diverse Queer Representation in Dance Adaptations of Early Modern Literature through Christopher Marlowe's Edward II

本研究的目的是提出舞蹈的身体作为一种富有成效的媒介，通过它来深入了解早期现代文学的酷儿潜力，并探索该时期的同性恋研究如何能为我们当代和历史上对性的理解做出重大贡献。它旨在鼓励酷儿文学研究和舞蹈研究之间更多的交叉学术研究，为学科之间的分析模式和对话形式的创造做出贡献，并提出产生和共享知识的模式，而不是将语言特权置于其他认知技术之上。该项目将为酷儿舞蹈的改编提供具体的策略，并鼓励莎士比亚以外的作家进行具体的探索。

The aims of this study are to propose the dancing body as a fruitful agent through which to gain insight into early modern literature's queer potential, and to explore how the study of the period's homoerotics can make considerable contributions to our contemporary and historical understanding of sexuality. It aims to encourage more intersectional scholarship between queer literary studies and dance studies, to contribute towards the creation of models for analysis and forms of dialogue between the disciplines, and to propose modes of generating and sharing knowledge that do not privilege the linguistic above other epistemic technologies. The project will generate concrete strategies for queer dance adaptation, and encourage the embodied exploration of writers other than Shakespeare.
