Abstract

Data related to the Korean modern dance history after the liberation is so poor, thus, most Korean dance historians feel like this period as “vacant of history.” Due to the nature of dances that disappeared right after the performance, the record of dance is always poorer than the other arts. Especially the technology of photo and video recording was not even a mean age at the time, the dance was only remained in the memory and experience of dancers and the audience. Oral dance history is a new scholastic field that collect and research those people’s memories and experiences. With the development of oral history, dance historians have possibility to write a new dance history. Thought oral dance history targeted at living dancers and utilized personal experience, most of the topic areas related to modern and contemporary dance periods and provided concrete evidence. Above all, oral history narratives as the primary source of oral dance history suggest new horizons for writing contemporary Korean dance history in the 20th century. In the dancer’s oral statement, it contains the growth process of dancer, and dancer’s regional, educational, occupational background, etc. That is, the dancer’s narratives are similar to anthropological, sociological, psychological information. Therefore, dance historian can evaluate identity or consciousness of dancers based on narrative flow of the them. Subsequently, dance historian could research on dance structures and systematic development with deeper understanding. The purpose of this study is to develop the list of key words for oral dance history statements. For this purpose, 48 oral dance history scripts of the Archive for Performing Arts at the Korea National Arts Council (KNAC) in 2008 and 2009 were analyzed.
