Course contents

Work in the second semester focuses on dance source issues, heuristics, recognition of the types of dance sources in Czech collections and working with them. In the course students work on their own theory paper which they present at the exam before the dean's committee at the end of the first year of study. The designe of that work is set upon one of the sources (or limited colleciton of mutually related sources) and interpretation. In the exam before the dean's committee, students present it, in principle, in a PowerPoint presentation along with submitting the relative text in printed form.
