Dance and Essence: Reflections on Morality and Education.
Hodes, Stuart
Arts Education Policy Review, v97 n2 p2-13 Nov-Dec 1995

Criticizes the body versus mind dualism and antibody bias implicit in the Western intellectual tradition. Contrasts the aggressive nature of sports with the expressive character of dance. (MJP)
