In an empire whose cities were built of wood, firefighters had a visible presence throughout Russia's urban centres and became politically active across the country. Democracy Burning? studies the political, cultural, and social values of volunteer firefighters and reveals the ways in which their public organizations cooperated with the authoritarian state. Nigel Raab considers the important roles that nationalism, regionalism, militarism, photography, and civil society played in fire departments and challenges prevailing notions that volunteer organizations opposed the state. His analysis not only provides insights into questions about a nascent civic consciousness in the years leading to revolution but also reveals new and important information about other aspects of urban life. A skilled work of history and urban studies, Democracy Burning? forces us to rethink the way we consider large public organizations and their relation to authoritarian governments. 606 $aFire departments$zRussia$xHistory 607 $aRussia$xHistory$y1801-1917 607 $aRussia$xSocial conditions$y1801-1917 607 $aRussia$xPolitics and government$y1801-1917 615 0$aFire departments$xHistory. 676 $a363.37/8094709034 700 $aRaab$b Nigel A.$f1968-$01633313 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9911100987703321 996 $aDemocracy burning$94784007 997 $aUNINA LEADER 01759nam 22005413u 450 001 9911089853303321 005 20240418102509.0 010 $a1-77556-405-3 035 $a(CKB)3710000000076488 035 $a(EBL)380877 035 $a(OCoLC)808730134 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC380877 035 $a(EXLCZ)993710000000076488 100 $a20140804d2008|||| u|| | 101 0 $aeng 135 $aur|n|---||||| 181 $ctxt$2rdacontent 182 $cc$2rdamedia 183 $acr$2rdacarrier 200 10$aCivil Disobedience 205 $a1st ed. 210 $aWaiheke Island $cThe Floating Press$d2008 215 $a1 online resource (41 p.) 300 $aDescription based upon print version of record. 327 $aIntro -- Title. 330 $aThoreau wrote Civil Disobedience in 1849. It argues the superiority of the individual conscience over acquiescence to government. Thoreau was inspired to write in response to slavery and the Mexican-American war. He believed that people could not be made agents of injustice if they were governed by their own consciences. 606 $aCivil disobedience 606 $aSolitude 606 $aThoreau, Henry David, 1817-1862 606 $aViolence in society 606 $aViolence 615 4$aCivil disobedience. 615 4$aSolitude. 615 4$aThoreau, Henry David, 1817-1862. 615 4$aViolence in society. 615 4$aViolence. 676 $a303.6/1 676 $a818 676 $a818.309 676 $a818/.309 700 $aThoreau$b Henry David$f1817-1862.$0132500 801 0$bAU-PeEL 801 1$bAU-PeEL 801 2$bAU-PeEL 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9911089853303321 996 $aCivil Disobedience$92617782 997 $aUNINA LEADER 05481oam 2200685I 450 001 9911132169703321 005 20251116235302.0 010 $a1-317-53249-X 010 $a0-415-71325-0 010 $a1-315-72495-2 010 $a1-317-53250-3 010 $a9781315724959 024 7 $a10.4324/9781315724959 035 $a(CKB)3710000000382930 035 $a(EBL)2005377 035 $a(OCoLC)905853905 035 $a(SSID)ssj0001459489 035 $a(PQKBManifestationID)12567811 035 $a(PQKBTitleCode)TC0001459489 035 $a(PQKBWorkID)11477584 035 $a(PQKB)10254489 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC2005377 035 $a(OCoLC)958107692 035 $a(FlBoTFG)9781315724959 035 $a(EXLCZ)993710000000382930 100 $a20180706d2015 uy 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aurcn|---m|||| 181 $ctxt 182 $cc 183 $acr 200 00$aMoving sites $einvestigating site-specific dance performance /$fedited by Victoria Hunter 205 $a1st ed. 210 1$aLondon ;$aNew York :$cRoutledge,$d2015. 215 $a1 online resource (xvi, 494 pages) 300 $aBibliographic Level Mode of Issuance: Monograph 311 08$a1-336-28199-5 311 08$a0-415-71017-0 320 $aIncludes bibliographical references at the end of each chapters and index. 327 $aIntroduction -- PART I Approaching the site: experiencing space and place -- 1 Experiencing space: the implications for site-specific dance performance -- 2 Sited conversations -- 3 Between dance and architecture -- 4 Atmospheric choreographies and air-conditioned bodies -- 5 Embodying the site: the here and now in site-specific dance performance -- PART II Experiencing site: locating the experience -- 6 Homemade circus: investigating embodiment in academic spaces -- 7 Sharing occasions at a distance: the different dimensions of comobility -- 8 Video space: a site for choreography -- 9 Placing the body in mixed reality -- 10 Spatial translation, embodiment and the site-specific event -- PART III Engaging with the built environment and urban practice -- 11 City of lovers -- 12 Dancing the history of urban change in the Bay and beyond -- 13 Site-specific dance in a corporate landscape: space, place, and non-place -- 14 Stop.

In offering this joint effort of theory and practice, it aims to provide dance academics, students and practitioners with a series of discussions that shed light both on approaches to making this type of dance practice, and evaluating and reflecting on it. The edited volume combines critical thinking from a range of perspectives including commentary and observation from the fields of dance studies, human geography and spatial theory in order to present interdisciplinary discourse and a range of critical and practice-led lenses through which this type of work can be considered and explored. In so doing, this book addresses?the following questions: How do choreographers make site-specific dance performance?; What occurs when a moving?body engages with site, place and environment?; How might we interpret, analyse and evaluate this type of dance practice through a range of theoretical lenses?; How can this type of practice inform wider discussions of embodiment, site, space, place and environment? This innovative and exciting book seeks to move beyond description and discussion of site-specific dance as a spectacle or novelty and considers site-dance as a valid and vital form of contemporary dance practice that explores, reflects, disrupts, contests and develops understandings and practices of inhabiting and engaging with a range of sites and environments. 606 $aChoreography 606 $aDance$xStage-setting and scenery 606 $aDance$xSocial aspects 606 $aDance$xStudy and teaching 615 0$aChoreography. 615 0$aDance$xStage-setting and scenery. 615 0$aDance$xSocial aspects. 615 0$aDance$xStudy and teaching. 676 $a792.8/2 676 $a792.82 676 $a792.801 701 $aHunter$b Victoria$c(Senior lecturer in dance)$01228290 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9911132169703321 996 $aMoving sites$94873301 997 $aUNINA
