Sinopsis
Written in 1463, this book is the work of Guglielmo Ebreo - William the Jew - dancing master at the most influential courts in Renaissance Italy. It includes choreographies and music for 36 dances, a theory of the dance (still valid today), and Guglielmo's first-hand account of the festivities in which he took part. The book was dedicated to the future Sforza duke of Milan in the determination to give dance the status enjoyed by music and other arts and sciences. The choreographies (subsequently likened to the artistic achievements of Machaut, Leonardo, Dante and Petrarch), a defence of the dance, a Socratic dialogue, and theoretical precepts, clearly reflect the contemporary humanistic aesthetic and ideals. Challenging exercises, such as dancing counter to the time of the music, and advice to young ladies at balls are also described. Abbreviations, bibliographical notes on Guglielmo's patrons, illustrations depicting scenes of dancing, as well as a glossary of dance, music and humanistic terms complete the critical apparatus.
