Description: And Then Came Dance : The Women Who Led Volynsky to Ballet's Magic Kingdom, Hardcover by Rabinowitz, Stanley J. (TRN), ISBN 019094336X, ISBN-13 9780190943363, Brand New, Free shipping in the US Presenting for the first time Akim Volynskys (1) pre-balletic writings on Leonardo da Vinci, Fyodor Dostoevsky, Otto Weininger, and on such illustrious personalities as Zinaida Gippius, Ida Rubinstein, and Lou Andreas-Salome, And Then Came Dance provides new insight into the origins
of Volynskys life-altering journey to become Russias foremost ballet critic. A man for whom the realm of art was largely female in form and whose all-encompassing image of woman constituted the crux of his aesthetic contemplation that crossed over into the personal and libidinal, Volynsky looks
ahead to another Petersburg-bred high priest of classical dance, George Balanchine. With an undeniable proclivity toward ballets female component, Volynskys dance writings, illuminated by examples of his earlier gendered criticism, invite speculation on how truly ground-breaking and
forward-looking this critic is.
