Any attempt at establishing a noble education should consider the concept of dance. As Nietzsche gives his take on education when he says, “For truth to tell, dancing in all its forms cannot be excluded from the curriculum of all noble education: dancing with the feet, with ideas, with words, and, need I add that one must also be able to dance with pen- that one must learn how to write.” Thus, I can argue that “City as a Text” is the dance course. You dance on your feet while walking through all the streets of St. Petersburg. You dance with ideas when you get to know that you need to present them. So, you speak the idea out. Afterwards, you need to say how you came to this idea, then, you say it again. You dance with words through answering questions and trying to be persuasive. You dance with your pen when you try to boost the brainstorming process during the teamwork. Therefore, City as a Text is the complete dance course.
