Download or read book Dance written by Carol Wallace and published by Metropolitan Museum of Art. This book was released on 1986 with total page 129 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Twirling figures, gloved hands clasped, the strains of the violin..." These words from the first essay in this delightful book could be describing an eighteenth-century minuet performed by aristocratic guests at a Versailles ball, a nineteenth-century cotillion of white-gowned debutantes in new York, or a stylish moment created on the silver screen by Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers. The steps and the music and the dresses may vary, but the exciting and elegant sight of society enjoying itself on the dance floor has persisted through the ages. In this book, published to coincide with an exhibition held at the Costume Institute of the Metropolitan Museum of Art under the direction of Diana Vreeland, four authors look at the subject of social dancing from four different points of view. Carol McD. Wallace surveys the great balls and dancing parties of Europe, England, and America from the eighteenth century to the present, while Don McDonagh describes the dance steps themselves, from the early basse danze of Italy to the twist of modern-day America. Jean Druesedow, associate curator in charge of the Costume Institute, discusses the evolution of the ball gown and other costumes designed for dancing, and Laurence Libin, curator of musical instruments, assisted by Constance Old, analyzes the way in which dance has been depicted in works of art through the centuries. Illustrated with paintings, works of decorative art, contemporary prints and photographs, these lively essays re-create the rhythmic energy, the social proprieties, the colorful costumes and anecdotes of dances and dancers past and present. -- from dust jacket.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many know that the saintly Cure of Ars condemned dancing and banished it from the parish of Ars. He was simply following the advice of the Fathers of the Church, who likewise condemn dancing as a great evil. Let us look into this book: “"It is by her dancing," exclaims St. John Chrysostom," that the daughter of Herodias captivated the heart of Herod, who had the folly to promise, as a reward for it, to give her whatever she should ask; and she had the cruelty to demand from him the head of St. John the Baptist. It is the devil," he continues, "who made her dance so gracefully, and who made Herod fall into his snares; for he is always present where there is a dance; it is in such amusements that he is most pleased, and where he has the greatest ease in destroying souls. If dancing at the present day does not cause the death of St. John the Baptist, as that of the daughter of Herodias did, it causes a death far more sorrowful to the members of Jesus Christ. ..."”This is a translation of the 1842 work Traite sur la Danse of Abbe Hulot. This would be at the same time the holy Cure of Ars was condemning dancing. And what can we say of dancing and music today? Both have gotten far worse in the intervening century and a half. In the Preface we read: “Bishop Lefevre, the zealous and learned bishop of Detroit, in his Pastoral, (Oct., 1850,) addresses thus the clergy and laity, in relation to an abuse prevailing in his, as well as in several other cities, where excursions, &C., are availed of to raise money for good and charitable objects: "To our age is reserved the honor of adding to the dictionary of our language the word 'charity ball,' and of teaching that what dishonors God, blaspheme our religion, and places a stumbling block to a multitude of souls, who find ill it both spiritual and temporal ruin, can be right, and even praiseworthy, on account of that relief which it may afford to the poor, &c.; in other words, that the end justifies the means, however criminal they may be in themselves, or in the circumstances attending them. You are well persuaded, and we loudly proclaim it, that you must give alms according to the precepts of our Lord; but remember well that this God, infinitely wise, cannot be indifferent to the manner in which you acquit yourself of this work of charity, in order that it may answer to His design, and be meritorious to you.” Father Hulot proves that dancing has been constantly condemned by the Catholic Church from the Sacred Scriptures, the Fathers of the Church, the Councils of the Church. Let us return to our book: “The Catechism of the Council of Trent says, that bad books and bad songs are condemned no less than dunces, as they equally lead to impurity.” And consider the impurity during and after dances in all ages? In fact one dance was promoted as being the most impure pleasure a couple can have with their clothing on, which is certainly a mortal sin. Let us close with this last Apocalyptic consideration: “St. Anthony, Archbishop of Florence, says, that those who deliver themselves up to this fatal diversion travel on the road to hell, and will arrive there unexpectedly at some future day, where the road ends. " We read in the Apocalypse," says this holy archbishop, "that, the angel having sounded the fifth trumpet, the depth of the abyss opened; there rose from the bottom a smoke like that of a furnace; there went forth from this smoke locusts, which spread themselves over the whole world, and which received. the power of tormenting like the scorpions of the earth. … These locusts are dancers; and the pit whence they come is the bottom of hell; for the love of dancing is inspired by the devil, whose residence is hell.”

Book excerpt: From New York Times bestselling author Sabrina Jeffries comes a sparkling new series about an oft-widowed mother’s grown children, who blaze through society in their quest for the truth about their fathers . . . and in the process find that love just might conquer all . . . A series of stepfathers and a difficult childhood have left Fletcher “Grey” Pryde, 5th Duke of Greycourt, with a guarded heart, enviable wealth, and the undeserved reputation of a rogue. Grey’s focus on expanding his dukedom allows him little time to find a wife. But when his mother is widowed yet again and he meets the charmingly unconventional woman managing his stepfather’s funeral, he’s shocked to discover how much they have in common. Still, Grey isn’t interested in love, no matter how pretty, or delightfully outspoken, the lady . . . Beatrice Wolfe gave up on romance long ago, and the arrogant Duke of Greycourt with his rakish reputation isn’t exactly changing her mind. Then Grey agrees to assist his grief-stricken mother with her latest “project”: schooling spirited, unfashionable Beatrice for her debut. Now that Beatrice is seeing through Grey’s charms to his wounded heart, she’s having trouble keeping him at arm’s length. But once Grey starts digging into her family’s secrets, she must decide whether her loyalties lie with her family . . . or with the man whose lessons capture her heart . . . “Anyone who loves romance must read Sabrina Jeffries!” —Lisa Kleypas, New York Times bestselling author

But when her former suitor appears at Armitage Hall, manhandling the heiress and threatening to go public with her secrets, it’s Gwyn who needs protecting. Her twin brother, Thorn, hires Joshua Wolfe, the estate’s gamekeeper, to keep her safe in London during her debut. As a war hero, Joshua feels obligated to fulfill the assignment he has accepted. But as a man, it’s torment to be so very close to the beauty he’s fought to ignore . . . With handsome Joshua monitoring her every move, Gwyn would prefer to forget both the past and the parade of money-seeking bachelors at her coming out. But Joshua is unmoved by her attempts at flirtation, and the threat of blackmail still hangs over her. With danger closing in, Gwyn must decide which is the greater risk: deflecting a scoundrel’s attempts to sabotage her—or revealing her whole heart to the rugged bodyguard she can’t resist . . . If one knows anything about Regency society, it’s that they can’t resist a scandalous secret. “Beautifully showcases the author’s gift for creating vividly etched characters (including a well-matched pair of protagonists) and then expertly placing them within a tautly constructed plot spiced with danger and plenty of red-hot sensuality.” —Booklist
