The Polka as a Czech National Symbol.
Original language description
From ‘folk devils’ to ballroom dancers, the monographe explores the changing reception of fashionable couple dances in Europe from the eighteenth century onwards. It brings together elements of historiography, cultural memory, folklore, and dance across comparatively narrow but markedly heterogeneous localities. The essays afford many opportunities to compare sociocultural and political reactions to the arrival and practice of popular rotating couple dances, such as the Waltz and the Polka. In the chapter 5. polka is investigated as a vehicle of Czech national awarness in the process of building nation state in 19. century in former Bohemia.
