Part V. Enacting testimony/performing cultural memory/spectatorship as practice. What remains of the witness? Testimony as epistemological category : schlepping the trace / Susanne Foellmer ; Baroque relations : performing silver and gold in Daniel Rabel's Ballets of the Americas / VK Preston ; Reenacting Kaisika natakam : ritual dance-theater of India / Ketu H. Katrak with Anita Ratnam ; Gloriously inept and satisfyingly true : reenactment and the practice of spectating / P.A. Skantze --
Part VI. The politics of reenactment. Blasting out of the past : the politics of history and memory in Janez Janša's reconstructions / Ramsay Burt ; Reenactment as racialized scandal / Anthea Kraut ; Reenacting modernist time : William Kentridge's The refusal of time / Christel Stalpaert --

Quito-Brussels : a dancer's cultural geography / Fabián Barba ; Dance and the distributed body : Odissi and Mahari performance / Anurima Banerji ; Choreographic re-embodiment between text and dance / Susan Jones --
Part VIII. Epistemologies of inter-temporality. Affect, technique, and discourse : being actively passive in the face of history : reconstruction of reconstruction / Gerald Siegmund ; Epilogue to an epilogue : historicizing the re- in danced reenactment / Mark Franko ; The time of reenactment in basse danse and bassadanza / Seeta Chaganti ; Time layers, time leaps, time loss : methodologies of dance historiography / Christina Thurner --
Part IX. Reenactment in/as global knowledge circulation. (In)distinct positions : the politics of theorizing choreography / Jens Richard Giersdorf ; Scenes of reenactment/logics of derivation in dance / Randy Martin ; A proposition for reenactment : Disco Angola by Stan Douglas / Catherine M. Soussloff ; Dance in search of its own history : on the contemporary circulation of past knowledge / Sabine Huschka --
Afterword : Notes after the fact / Lucia Ruprecht.
Starting from differences between reenactment and the more established practice of historical reconstruction, leading practitioners and theorists ask how the notion of preservation and representation associated with reconstruction is transformed by reenactment into historical experience and affective relation to the past in the present. In other terms: How does dance convey historical meaning through sensuous form? Danced reenactment poses the problem of history and historicity in relation to the troubled temporality inherent to dance itself. Ephemerality as the central trope of dance is hence displaced in favor of dance as a reiterative practice that confounds categories of chronological time and opens up a theoretical space of history that is often invisibilized by ideologies of immediacy traditionally attributed to dancing
