| 摘要 | "Yimoko I, II, III and IV" is the embodiment of Zen Dance which is the life work of the choreographer. This study deals with the development of "Yimoko III," as it was performed in 1983. "Yimoko III" consisted of three parts: Part I was a lecture-demonstration on the principles of Zen Dance, including the philosophy of Zen Dance, the meditation technique involved, and the aesthetics of Zen Dance. Part II, "Dance Meditation," was designed as an exercise for Zen Dance preparation. Part III, "Rebellion and Harmony," was an actual performance meant to represent abstractly a husband and wife's interaction in the process of moving from conflicts of opinion toward harmony. Videotapes of "Yimoko I, II, and III" are included as part of the documentation for this dissertation. In order to illuminate the development of "Yimoko III," the researcher has chosen to present an overview of the influence of Zen and Buddhism on some of the performing arts in Japan, Korea, and the United States beginning with the influence of Zeami and the No play of Japan, continuing with the Buddhist ritual chakpup and pomp'ae (song and dance) in Korea, and finally appearing in the present-day choreography of Erick Hawkins and Al Huang in the United States. One cannot discuss the goals of Zen Dance without at the same time referring to Zen Dance method or technique. One of the two foundations of this method is keeping the following question in mind at all times: "Yimoko?--or What is my true self?" Tanjun breathing (breathing from the lower abdomen or center of gravity) is the other pillar on which Zen Dance is founded. The dancer must maintain concentration on the Tanjun area throughout the entire performance. These two principles of Zen Dance are indivisible from one another. One of the basic tenets of Zen Dance is true simplicity, a focus on moment-to-moment existence. Zen Dance is not a special form of Zen; it is, rather, a part of everyday Zen practice, whether one is sitting in meditation or dancing, and is perhaps more correctly described as Dance Meditation. |
