Résumé

Our research proposes to bring together two approaches to qualitative movement analysis used in dance, Laban Movement Analysis (LMA) and Functional Analysis of the Dancing Body [L’Analyse Fonctionnelle du Corps dans le Mouvement Dansé] (AFCMD) in order to better represent the interplay between the functional and expressive dimensions of movement. The methodology designed for this research combines a phenomenological perspective and explicitation interviews with experts followed by an “activity analysis.” Our efforts led to two types of results: an understanding of the processes underlying the observation-analysis activity of the observers and a proposed crosscutting conceptual framework integrating the main precepts of the two approaches considered. The “Activity Analysis” epistemology allowed us to identify a distinctive configuration of activities specific to each approach. In addition, the new framework graphs the identified observables in three overlapping spheres – Ground, Space, and Dynamics – placing at the heart of the schema the integration of the dimensions of Function and Expression.
