About This Item
British Broadcasting Corporation, London 1976 Large-format softcover Ours is an ex-library copy in transparent protective covering, and usual stamps, pocket and stickers, etc. Book in GOOD condition This book traces the development of our social dancing from its origins in the ancient ring-dances of antiquity, to the teenager's beat dancing of today. From the invention of couple dancing by the Troubadours of Provence, through the domination of the Italian, the English and the French courts to the French revolution and then on to the most shocking dance ever known to Western man, the Waltz. This is not a look at how to dance, but what they danced, and why.
