Chapter 1 Uday Shankar and Indian Dance History -- Chapter 2 Modern Dance? Placing Shankar's Transculturality in Colonial South Asia -- Chapter 3 Dancing 'Oriental' Masculinity: Uday Shankar and his Experiments in Modern Dance -- Chapter 4 An attempt at creating a modern institution -- Chapter 5 Beyond the Proscenium with Dance, Magic, and Film -- Chapter 6 The Illusive Legacy.

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.
