Book excerpt: Excerpt from Fifty Figure and Character Dances As no provision for the teaching of this subject has been made in the curriculum of Scottish elementary schools, the time devoted to it has been found outside of school hours. Yet the subject, since it is capable of imparting notions of grace and beauty with facial expression in accordance with the varying moods of the dance, is by no means lacking in importance.

One need only take part in the Skipping, running, galloping, and animal rhythms, with the little children or go through the figures of an Old fashioned country dance with the eighth graders to be conscious of an increased heart-rate with its resultant stimulation of respiration and circulation.

Download or read book Modern Dancing and Dancers Classic Reprint written by John Ernest Crawford Flitch and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-11-24 with total page 330 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Modern Dancing and Dancers There are other peculiar difficulties which beset the critic of the Dance. I do not refer to the difficulty of passing judgment upon a fugitive art that leaves nothing behind it but an echo of applause, for with the dancers of the past I have little concern. There is the difficulty of discriminating between the executant and the composer - a difficulty greater in dancing than in music, since the dancer is more than an executant of the art, she is herself the medium of it. In the popular eye she has in fact always quite eclipsed the chore grapher. Criticism is in doubt as to the measure of her share in the creation of the design - an uncertainty that cannot be resolved by any reference to a score. Further, it is in continual danger of being misled by the glamour of personal qualities - physical beauty, for example - which are strictly extraneous to the art. (taglioni, it should be remembered, was probably the plainest as well as the greatest of dancers.) In no art, therefore, is personal prejudice established so readily or on grounds of such doubtful artistic validity. The Dance enjoys no immunity from the clash of schools. Indeed, partisanship is the more bitter as principles of criticism are less determined. The respective upholders of the school of the ballet and of the natural or classical style of dancing are barely on speaking terms. To the advocates of the old school the new classical dancer is little better than a freak performer; to the austere classicist the ballet-dancer is but a smiling automaton, and both agree in refusing to recognise the skirt-dancer as a dancer at all.

Download or read book Folk Dances for Young People With Explanatory Text Diagrams and Photographic Illustrations written by Cecilia van Cleve and published by . This book was released on 2016-06-13 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Folk Dances for Young People; With Explanatory Text, Diagrams and Photographic Illustrations: Adapted for the Use of Schools, Playgrounds and Other Organizations of Children in the United States The song-dances in this book are adapted to American needs from Swedish, Danish and Norwegian originals. The words are translated as closely as exigencies of meter Will allow. The airs are well Within the limited compass of children's voices. The people with whom these song-dances originated, some dances dating as far back as the sixteenth century, use only the melody, occasionally assisted by a fiddle or an accordion; but to meet the demands of the American school, a tuneful piano accompaniment is added. The original text is published by Prof. O. Helgren, principal of the public schools in Filip stad and a member of the faculty of the College at Naas, Sweden. Thither go young women from many countries, for instruction in scientific physical training. Prof. Helgren posed Swedish school-children for the pictures in this book and the dia grams to illustrate the dances have his approval. Never was the primitive love of dancing stronger than now. In dancing, as in music and literature, a sound taste is best assured when the cultivation of it begins early. Any dance in this book is suitable for children's entertainment; they are instructive, wholesome and sweet. This collection of song-dances, the most complete ever published, will be found useful in public and private schools as a pleasant addition to the regular courses in physical training, play-grounds and school-centers in general.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Book of Cambridge Verse Nevertheless, after all deductions have been made, how much true poetry is yet left! He must be hard to please who cannot find intense enjoyment in the Eclogues of Phineas Fletcher, in Cowley's epitaph on Harvey, in the Miltonic stanzas of Gray's Installation Ode, in a score of other pieces, grave, quaint, or classical in their allusive ness of phrasing. Especially grateful must we be to the number of poets, of exquisite feeling and easy mastery of form, who during the last fifty or sixty years have enriched the language with delicate and elegant verse, from which it has been only too difficult to choose because its quantity is so great and its merit so even. Of this we trust we have given a tolerably adequate selection but it would have been easy to multiply it fourfold.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Modern Dance for the Youth of America The Dying Swan was typical of an art that found subject matter in romantic fancies. Like the ballet of which it was a part, it used a system of movement common to Russia, Italy and France. This tech nique was so systematized that the ballet dancer could go from one school of dance to another, and find that his techniques would serve him well in each, and that he could follow the instructions of his teacher without making fundamental changes in his style of movement.

Download or read book Games and Dances Classic Reprint written by William A. Stecher and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-03-24 with total page 382 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Games and Dances Increased attention to the physical welfare of children and adults, also the greatly increased number of playgrounds, has created a demand for a separate and enlarged edition of those activities of the Philadelphia Hand books of Lessons in Physical Training and Games, found under the headings of Games, song-plays, Dances and Roundels. The plan followed in the other books is also adhered to here, namely, the games and dances suitable for children or adults of each particular school-grade or age - group are printed together. This procedure places into the hands of a teacher a graded selection of tried and effective games and dances. The games and dances are arranged in nine progressive grades. Games marked (r) can be played in a room as well as in a playground. In an appendix a limited selection of quiet games and problems for hot weather is presented. This is followed by a list of track and field events which may be undertaken on the average playground, and by the records which the ordinary boy and girl should make. Then come seven compositions suited for mass drills on play days or field days. Lastly comes much valuable information relating to the space necessary for different kinds of play, to play courts, to the preparation playground teachers should have, to programs, salaries, etc., etc. Games and plays may be classified (a) into play activities upon stationary apparatus of various kinds, and (b) into play without stationary apparatus. Into the first group fall the playful activities upon the swinging and traveling rings, giant strides, swings, low horizontal bars, ladders, poles, teeter boards, and like forms of suitable play apparatus for children and adults. These are all forms of appliances upon which any one without gymnastic training and without the aid of a teacher of gymnastics or of play may amuse himself to his heart's content. Quite a number of easy stunts may be performed upon such apparatus. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
