À propos de ce produit

Product Information

With around one million participants, breaking is the world's first and most widely practiced hip-hop dance-and, as of 2024, an Olympic sport. Yet, despite its global reach and nearing 50-year history, narratives of breaking's origins have largely neglected the African Americans who founded it. Dancer and scholar Serouj "Midus" Aprahamian offers, for the first time, a detailed look into the beginnings of breaking in the Bronx. Unearthing new archival material, interviews, firsthand accounts of over 50 founding b-boys and b-girls, and detailed descriptions of the dance at its outset, The Birth of Breaking brings this buried history to life. Aprahamian explores embodied movement analysis alongside discussions of the early development and institutional settings where hip-hop was conceived. And by scrutinizing the movement's impact on sociocultural conditions in 1970s New York City, he reveals how indebted breaking is to African American culture and the disturbing factors behind its historical erasure.

Reviews
"A tour de force study of the African American wellsprings of breaking, written with academic rigor and empathetic care. With outstanding complexity, Serouj Midus Aprahamian explains how race and class have shaped hip-hop dance histories. Exploring unpublished archives and conducting new interviews with hip-hop legends from the 1970s, The Birth of Breaking demonstrates how dance has been central to understanding hip-hop's powerful global influence." -- Thomas F, DeFrantz, Professor of Performance Studies, Northwestern University, USA "As a b-boy and scholar, Dr. Aprahamian could not be better positioned to author this groundbreaking historical study that sets the record straight on the genesis of breaking culture. A combination of archival research, practitioner interviews, and embodied knowledge, The Birth of Breaking details how innovations in this Black vernacular dance influenced the advent of hip-hop music, dispels myths that link the dance to Black criminality, and recognizes the contribution of women to this vibrant dance culture." -- Sherril Dodds, Professor of Dance, Temple University, USA " The Birth of Breaking offers an insightful and vitally important account of hip-hop history, presenting it in a way that properly acknowledges the crucial contributions of African-Americans and their cultural traditions, highlights the central role of women, and underlines the importance of breaking in hip-hop's development. This book is a must-read for anyone who is interested in or involved in hip-hop culture." -- Rachael "Raygun" Gunn, 2020 and 2021 Top Ranked b-girl by the Australian Breaking Association, and Lecturer in Media and Creative Industries, Macquarie University, Australia " The Birth of Breaking is the most complete and in-depth study of the origins of hip-hop to date. Midus's research is unmatched and he sets the bar high for all future scholarship.
