Thus to Fling Her Soul: It Is a Moment in Time, and Timeless

By Jennifer De Leon

This work is about performance, vulnerability, brokenness, age, and "the Call." It is autobiographical, the journey of an experienced dancer-choreographer with recognition nationally and internationally. As, additionally, an academic with several degrees, Jennifer De Leon's work is supported by theoretical research. Her approach is hermeneutical phenomenological and includes some of her PhD material. Laying aside the academic strictures of university research, however, provides the author entry to a spiritual dimension giving her scope to explore the Call. The spiritual, artistic, theoretical, and whimsical support the story about how and why, despite age, injury, and pain, "flinging the soul" is a worthy alternative to giving up. This book is thus universally relevant for all who are aging or know pain, loss, or despair, and yet are drawn by the Call to not give up. The goal of this book is to inspire hope--offering a vision as to how life with age, injury, pain, or vulnerability, can be lived not just satisfactorily, but abundantly.
