UPLOAD READING RESPONSES HERE:

For EACH reading, each week, post three short observations/questions. What interested you? Or confused you? Or was strange? Or reminded you of something else? Or perhaps what might have been familiar? Perhaps a form of dance that you know or have seen? Or perhaps ideas about dance and ritual that you have encountered before? Each observation/question should be brief—a sentence or two. Be prepared to discuss them in class.
