      abstract = {This monograph presents a specific experience of modernity  within the context of Indian dance by looking at the  transcultural journey of Indian dancer / choreographer Uday  Shankar (1900b 1977d). His popularity in Europe and America  as an Oriental male dancer in the first half of the 20th  century, and his worldwide recognition as the Ambassador of  Indian culture, are brought into a historiographical  perspective within the cultural and social reforms of early  twentieth century India. By exploring his artistic journey  beyond India in the period between the two world wars, and  his experience of dance making, presentational technique  and representation of India through various phases of his  life, a path is forged to understanding the emergence of  modernity in Indian dance.},
