These different approaches, which draw on literary texts, inscriptions, documentary papyri, the visual record, and modern reperformances, converge in illustrating a rich and vibrant dance culture which prided itself on indigenous dances no less than on its capacity to absorb, transform, or revive the dance traditions of their Etruscan or Greek neighbours. Dance was a cultural practice which was able to affirm Romanness, for instance in the case of the Salian priests, but also to raise the question of what was Roman in the first place, for instance when the originally Greek pantomime was embraced by Augustus and came to be known as "Italian style of dancing". Together the fourteen case studies offer fresh perspectives on an underexplored topic, shedding light on the manifold contexts, functions, practitioners, and appreciations of Roman dance. 410 $aPotsdamer altertumswissenschaftliche Beiträge 606 $aDance 606 $aPerforming arts 610 $aPerforming Arts 610 $aDance 610 $aHistory & Criticism 615 0$aDance. 615 0$aPerforming arts. 702 $aSchlapbach$b Karin$f1969- 801 0$bScCtBLL 801 1$bScCtBLL 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910595097503321 996 $aAspects of Roman Dance Culture$93876916 997 $aUNINA
