ALARCON DAVILA, Mónica. The Spatiality of Time: Temporality and the Body in Dance. An. Inst. Investig. Estét [online]. 2015, vol.37, n.106, pp.113-147. ISSN 0185-1276.

An art-form such as dance-which has the human body as both subject and object of its execution-is a suitable aid for considering some questions regarding time and the body. Dance displays not only a body, but a body in movement that with its fleetingness seems to forestall a reification of itself. Dance is an argument against understanding the body as merely a res extensa, a material thing. Moreover, a dancing body requires one to understand it as self-aware and autonomous in its movement. This article investigates the possibility of a subjective bodily experience of time.
