These dancers choreographically adapt various religious identities and ideas in order to emphasize pluralistic cultural and ethical dimensions in their work. Through the dancing body, multiple religious and secular interpretations are able to co-exist. 410 0$aStudies in body and religion. 606 $aBharata natyam 606 $aDance$xReligious aspects 615 0$aBharata natyam. 615 0$aDance$xReligious aspects. 676 $a793.3/1954 700 $aZubko$b Katherine C.$0952907 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910786752003321 996 $aDancing bodies of devotion$93713905 997 $aUNINA
