Bells Of Change
Traces two centuries of Kathak, from the colonial nautch dance to classical Kathak under nationalism and post-colonialism to transnationalism and globalization. Reorienting dance to focus on the lived experiences of dancers from a wide cross-section of society, this book narrates the history of Kathak from baijis and tawaifs to the global stage.
