Making Ballet American: Modernism Before and Beyond Balanchine - Oxford Studies in Dance Theory
Harris, Andrea (Assistant Professor of Dance, Assistant Professor of Dance, University of Wisconsin-Madison)
Situating ballet within twentieth-century modernism, this book brings complexity to the history of George Balanchine's American neoclassicism. It intervenes in the prevailing historical narrative and rebalances Balanchine's role in dance history by revealing the complex social, cultural, and political forces that actually shaped the construction of American neoclassical ballet.
