Abstract

AGUDELO OLARTE, Felipe. «THIS IS THE TIME TO DANCE»: DANCE AS A CELEBRATORY DIALOGUE IN MARTIN BUBER’S TALES OF THE HASIDIM. Linguist.lit. [online]. 2020, n.78, pp.451-477.  Epub Nov 16, 2021. ISSN 0120-5587.  https://doi.org/10.17533/udea.lyl.n78a18.

Martin Buber’s Tales of the Hasidim are addressed in this article from the presence of dance as a thematic motif in some of the stories, seeking thus to approach the thought of the author through his literary work. In the text, stories are related with elements of narrative structure; dialogue is presented as a narrative framework of stories in the contexts of the incomprehensible, identity, community-friendship and death; finally, dance is proposed as «sphere of the between» in the stories and a condition of celebration of the I-you meeting, held in those who participate in the plot.

Keywords : Martin Buber; Tales of the Hasidim; dance; dialogue; celebration.
