Dance In Its Time explores the world of dance against the backdrop of the social, political, and artistic climate that helped shape its development. From the dancing mania of the fourteenth century to the present creations of the New York City Ballet and Broadway theaters, Professor Sorrell brilliantly and comprehensively captures the spirit of the various times that saw dance as it grew into the sophisticated forms we now observe on the ballet stage and in the ballroom. This is not an ordinary history of the dance, even though all the astounding facts in the development of this art form can be found in Dance in Its Time. The author sheds different light on historic events and makes the emergence of the dance and the ballet come to life as a sociocultural experience. The author's work places the history of dance against the world picture of culture that surrounds it. Here is dance placed into context with Western civilization, often in vivid, poetic prose. This book evokes the historic sequence of dance, and shows its development in relation to all other arts. Walter Sorell was an erudite and prolific writer about dance and esthetics. Mr. Sorell, who was the New York dance critic for The Providence Journal from 1950 to 1966 and a contributor to publications like Dance News, Dance Magazine, Dance Observer and Ballet Today, was concerned with history and philosophy as well as dance. The author of more than 25 books in English and German, he sought to unite the arts in a cultural synthesis. He also translated several important novels from the German, including Hermann Hesse's ''Steppenwolf'' and Erich Maria Remarque's ''Arch of Triumph.'' Mr. Sorell's own books ranged from ''The Dance Through the Ages'' and ''Dance in Its Time'' to ''The Story of the Human Hand,'' a study of the ways in which hands can reveal character. Mr. Sorell admired the passion of the Romantic era and the fervor of early modern dance but was suspicious of some of the anarchic choreographic experiments of the 1960's. His interest in modern-dance history led him to translate two anthologies of writings by the German Expressionist choreographer Mary Wigman: ''The Language of Dance'' and ''The Mary Wigman Book.'' And he was the author of ''Hanya Holm,'' a biography of an influential German choreographer who moved to New York in the early 30's. Mr. Sorell published poetry, did radio broadcasts for the Voice of America and wrote several plays, including ''Everyman Today,'' staged by the Union Theological Seminary in 1958. An artist as well as a writer, Mr. Sorell began exhibiting his paintings when he was in his 70's, having more than 40 exhibitions. Mr. Sorell was born in Vienna. Fleeing the Nazis, he settled in New York City in 1939. Over the years, he taught theater and dance history at such institutions as Columbia University, Barnard College, the New School for Social Research, Hunter College, Cornell University and the University of Wisconsin. Mr. Sorell's many awards include an honorary doctorate from Valparaiso University in Indiana and the Dance Magazine Award of Distinction. He received the Austrian Cross of Honor for Science and Art in 1991 and the Silver Medal of Honor of the City of Vienna in 1994. First publication [stated]. Presumed first printing.
