'Originally published in 1895, Mrs Grove's account of dance history
was considered one of the most important books on dance during the
late nineteenth century. Although based on previously published
materials, the book maintained popularity for several decades.
Using a formula employed by many writers, Mrs. Grove writes about
the dances of antiquity, ritual dances, and the dances of
"savages." The remainder of the book is devoted to the dance of
many lands and cultures indcluding Scotland, Wales, Hungary,
Russia, Lapland, Spain, and Portugal.'

A very rare Dutch selection from Edison Blue Amberol cylinder
#9662, performed by Napoleon Christiaan (Nap) de la Mar
(1878-1930), a Dutch actor and director.
To have recorded something like this in this within the USA at the
time of around 1912 would have caused nothing short of a scandal.
Isadora Duncan was an American dancer who scandalized America with
her modern dance interpretations, dancing her "Dance of the Seven
Veils" in a flesh colored bodysuit, which gave the audience the
distinct impression that she was totally naked.
Against any doubts of this theory, legal action was taken against
sexually related or so called 'indecent' cylinder recordings by the
Comstock laws. "Russell Hunting was prosecuted under these broad
definitions of vice and obscenity." -Actionable Offenses, Indecent
Phonograph Recordings from the 1890s, Archeophone Records (ARCH
1007), 2007.
The strait-laced US public media is another good example for what
might have happened in 1912.

'Desrat begins his work with a description of dances that were
still in vogue at the turn of the century: Boston waltz, cake walk,
Berlin, pas de patineurs, and Washington-Post (a two step). A
history of ancient dance follows and the discussion begins with
Greek and Roman origins; this is followed by a discussion of
"modern dances," which Desrat describes as pavane, gavotte, branle,
and the minuet. Much of Desrat's historical text is borrowed
heavily from previously published sources including Élise
Voirat's 1823 Essai sur la danse antique et moderne.'

'This manual is an extensive history of dance that incorporates
many countries, cultures, and periods including Chinese, Hindu,
Egyptian, Greek, ancient Gaul, European Renaissance, and Baroque.
The manual also covers popular culture, peasant dance, and "foreign
dance." The perspective of this manual is clearly nineteenth
century, with little emphasis on historical fact. The point of view
is clearly western, and this is evident in the music examples that
accompany almost every country or culture's entry--all have been
subjected to western notation and are arranged in late
nineteenth-century grand musical style. Additionally, the text
includes numerous illustrations and, no matter the country or
culture, the figures are physically shaped to look like late
nineteenth-century western ladies and gentlemen.'

'Large portions of this manual on the history of dance are borrowed
from other sources including Mme Élise Voiart's Essai sur la
danse. The author begins with an examination of Greek and Roman
dance and continues through the court dances of Louis XII and
Catherine de Médicis. The discussion on French theatrical
dance includes mention of two well-known ballerinas, Fanny Elssler
and Fanny Cerrito. A wide range of Renaissance and Baroque dances
is discussed including the gavotte, pavane, sarabande, chaconne,
and gailliard. This manual is typical of other similar publications
in that substantial discussion is given to dance practices in
foreign lands including China, Switzerland, England, Ireland,
Hungary, and Russia.'

Originally published in 1767 under the title Die Kunst nach der
Choregraphie zu Tänze, Feldtenstein's manual utilizes text and
tables to describe basic steps. The work includes figures for
country dances and quadrilles, and a variety of national dances as
well as figures and music for four contredanses. This manual is
especially important for its description of the minuet as a duet
and its subsequent change into a group dance La danse ancienne et
moderne, ou Traité historique de la danse. (1754).

'This manual is one of the most important documents detailing
late-Renaissance Italian court dance. Dancing master Fabritio
Caroso (died 1605) describes fifty-four steps, provides rules for
style and etiquette, and contains specific choreographies for
eighty dances, most of which are designed for one couple. Many
dances are preceded by full-page illustrations and each dance is
provided with appropriate music notated in Italian lute tablature.
Fabritio Caroso is also the author of an additional dance manual,
Nobiltà di dame (1600; 1605).'
