5.0 out of 5 stars From the Back Cover:, January 31, 2006
This review is from: Dance As a Theatre Art: Source Readings in Dance History from 1851 to the Present (Paperback)
Dance As A Theatre Art provides an over-all view of the history of theatrical dance in Europe and America during the last four centuries. Source readings, consisting of theoretical essays, librottos, and excerpts from technical manuals, combine with Dr. Cohen's introductions and headnotes to cover every major trend and personality of the period. Many selections have never been reprinted before and six appear for the first time in English translation.
