Download or read book A Treatise on the Art of Dancing written by Giovanni-andrea Gallini and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2017-06-06 with total page 108 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ADVERTISEMENT. What I have here to say is rather in the nature of an apology than of a preface or advertisement. The very title of a Treatise upon the art of dancing by a dancing-master, implicitly threatens so much either of the exageration of the profession, or of the recommendation of himself, and most probably of both, that it cannot be improper for me to bespeak the reader's favorable precaution against so natural a prejudice. My principal motive for hazarding this production is, indisputably, gratitude. The approbation with which my endeavours to please in the dances of my composition have been honored, inspired me with no sentiment so strongly as that of desiring to prove to the public, that sensibility of its favor; which, in an artist, is more than a duty. It is even one of the means of obtaining its favor, by its inspiring that aim at perfection, in order to the deserving it, which is unknown to a merely mercenary spirit. Under the influence of that sentiment, it occurred to me, that it might not be unpleasing to the public to have a fair state of the pretentions of this art to its encouragement, and even to its esteem, laid before it, by a practitioner of this art. In stating these pretentions, there is nothing I shall more avoid than the enthusiasm arising from that vanity or self-conceit, which leads people into the ridicule of over-rating the merit or importance of their profession. I shall not, for example, presume to recommend dancing as a virtue; but I may, without presumption, represent it as one of the principal graces, and, in the just light, of being employed in adorning and making Virtue amiable, who is far from rejecting such assistence. In the view of a genteel exercise, it strengthens the body; in the view of a liberal accomplishment, it visibly diffuses a graceful agility through it; in the view of a private or public entertainment, it is not only a general instinct of nature, expressing health and joy by nothing so strongly as by dancing; but is susceptible withall of the most elegant collateral embellishments of taste, from poetry, music, painting, and machinery. One of the greatest and most admired institutors of youth, whose fine taste has been allowed clear from the least tincture of pedantry, Quintilian recommends especially the talent of dancing, as conducive to the formation of orators; not, as he very justly observes, that an orator should retain any thing of the air of a dancing-master, in his motion or gesture; but that the impression from the graces of that art should have insensibly stoln into his manner, and fashioned it to please. Even that austere critic, Scaliger, made the principles of it so far his concern, that he was able personally to satisfy an Emperor's curiosity, as to the nature and meaning of the Pirrhic dance, by executing it before him. All this I mention purely to obviate the prepossession of the art being so frivolous, so unworthy of the attention of the manly and grave, as it is vulgarly, or on a superficial view, imagined....

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This look at Progressive-era women and innovative cultural practices “blazes a new trail in dance scholarship” (Choice, Outstanding Academic Book of the Year). From salons to dance halls to settlement houses, new dance practices at the turn of the twentieth century became a vehicle for expressing cultural issues and negotiating matters of gender. By examining master narratives of modern dance history, this provocative and insightful book demonstrates the cultural agency of Progressive-era dance practices. “Tomko blazes a new trail in dance scholarship by interconnecting U.S. History and dance studies . . . the first to argue successfully that middle-class U.S. women promoted a new dance practice to manage industrial changes, crowded urban living, massive immigration, and interchange and repositioning among different classes.” —Choice
Download or read book The Art of Dancing written by F. Leslie Clendenen and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-06-02 with total page 185 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Art of Dancing: Its Theory and Practice The world of today needs stronger men and women - men and women who are 100 percent strong. We have just won the greatest war known in history, a war that was won by efficiency, and physical excellence. Realizing this to be a fact, let us ask ourselves if we are all in the proper condition physically? Are our schools properly preparing our sons and daughters for our daily battles? Are they getting 100 per cent exercises in our schools? The writer believes, that much good can be accomplished by our Dancing Masters teaching our children corrective exercises, and insisting that the public schools instruct the child in Nature Exercises and Esthetic Dancing. Teach the child how to prevent disease through proper exercises. We will then have no need for the doctor to cure the child after he is in the grip of a disease. Experience has taught the writer that most diseases can be cured through proper exercise. We now have seven children taking our health course, who have been pronounced incurable by the doctors. They have all shown wonderful improvement from the first lesson, and, through daily health exercises, have become strong and healthy. In China, we are told that the physician is hired to keep the family well, and in good health. Should a member of the family become ill, the physician's salary stops, until the person is cured. If this method were in vogue in this country, we believe our system of school gymnasium and the medical treatments now in use would undergo a radical change. It is the duty of every teacher to teach the children to be strong, healthy and perfect in body, to teach them how to preserve and to restore, and not to mutilate or destroy, our Creator's gift. The school child cannot have too much strength. Strength does not come in bottles or capsules; it can be had only through the careful practice of the proper exercises: exercises that will build up the entire system.
