    Content: Centered on questions of identity formation, selfhood, and the body, this ethnography examines the experiences of later life learners in Japan. The women profiled are amateur practitioners of Noh theater, learning the dance and chant essential to this classic art form. Using a combination of observational, interview, and experiential data, Katrina L. Moore discusses the relevance of these practices to the women's everyday lives. Later life learning activities have been heavily promoted in Japan as a means for an aging population to remain healthy. However, many Noh practitioners experience their practice as a means of self-actualization beyond the goal of healthy aging. Looking at daily experiences of training for and staging theatrical performances, Moore analyzes the way the body becomes the medium through which amateurs explore new states of self. The work provides a view of contemporary Noh that highlights the rarely acknowledged role of amateur performers.

    Content: "Mit wichtigen Zeitzeugen und atemberaubenden Tanzszenen erzählt der Zweiteiler die Geschichte vom globalen Siegeszug des sogenannten Streetdance. Vom Cake Walk über Lindy Hop und den Shuffle von James Brown bis zum Moonwalk von Michael Jackson erzählt der erste Teil von den kulturellen Wurzeln der Tänze, die heute die globale Tanzkultur bestimmen. Der zweite Teil der Dokumentation erzählt vom internationalen Siegeszug des Hip-Hop, der Mitte der 80er Jahre Europa erreicht. Neben London wird Paris zum europäischen Zentrum der Danses Urbaines. Es sind Tänzer und Tänzerinnen aus Haiti oder Martinique, die in den 80er Jahren ihre Tänze mit in die Metropole Paris bringen, wo mit dem Jazz Rock eine der ersten europäischen Formen des Streetdance entsteht. Gemeinsam mit Tanzpionieren wie Gabin Nussier und Niels "Storm" Robitzky verfolgen die Zuschauerinnen und Zuschauer zwischen Paris und Berlin die Entstehung einer neuen europäischen Tanzkultur."

    Content: Known for a tradition of Confucian filial piety, East Asian societies have some of the oldest and most rapidly aging populations on earth. Today these societies are experiencing unprecedented social challenges to the filial tradition of adult children caring for aging parents at home. Marshalling mixed methods data, this volume explores the complexities of aging and caregiving in contemporary East Asia. Questioning romantic visions of a senior's paradise, chapters examine emerging cultural meanings of and social responses to population aging, including caregiving both for and by the elderly. Themes include traditional ideals versus contemporary realities, the role of the state, patterns of familial and non-familial care, social stratification, and intersections of caregiving and death. Drawing on ethnographic, demographic, policy, archival, and media data, the authors trace both common patterns and diverging trends across China, Hong Kong, Taiwan, Singapore, Japan, and Korea
