El fluir narrativo de una Virginia Woolf danzada: El ballet Woolf Works

Abstract

An enriched study as a result of involving literature and dance, lays on the conception of the latter as a narrative expression related to the literary. The movements transmit an emotion that becomes a story in the privacy of the spectator, since the body is the space in which a choreographic text can be written. The narrative complexity of literature is assimilated by the body of dance, poetic symbol used to manifest the psychological fabric of Virginia Woolf. Wayne McGregor generates discourse by mimicking the narrated expression of words through a body semantics oriented to relate, at least, a triple narration. Mrs Dalloway's, Orlando and The Waves; through the images that emanate from the bodies of the dancers, but also the parallel allegory of the choreographer, who subjects the dancer to its physical, mental and emotional limits, and that of characters who suffer from life's adversities, like neglected puppets.
