In celebration of its Silver Anniversary, the scholarly journal Dance Research has invited a number of distinguished historian and colleagues to contribute essays on dance and its profound influence on the cultural and intellectual life of the early modern period. Contributors explore the natue of form and the significant links between rhetoric, discourses on art and architecture, and the language of dancing masters. The book argues for the centrality of dance to the human experience.
