Images of dance can often be read as symbols of love and the expression of desire. This lecture examines themes of love, courtship and marriage in the National Gallery Collection and considers the role of art and dance in the courtly celebrations and rituals of the 15th and 16th centuries.

Während man sich im ausgehenden 16. Jahrhundert in den übrigen Ländern Europas gerade bemühte, die Errungenschaften der italienischen Renaissance zu kopieren, suchte man in Italien bereits wieder nach neuen Ausdrucksformen, die die Werke eines Raffaels, eines Bramantes oder eines Leonardos ablösen sollten. Auch die Tanzkunst an den italienischen Fürstenhöfen hatte in den letzten Jahrzehnten eine neue Gestalt angenommen, wie sie uns in den Tanzbüchern Carosos und Negris überliefert ist.

DHDS Study Forum

This Study Forum will emphasise the role of practical research in early dance. The twin themes will be technique and performance, ranging from the 15th to the 19th century and extending beyond dance to music and drama. We hope to address such questions as:

Saturday 16 March
Saturday 20 April

In the Autumn, students studied a short balletto (Caroso) and selected variations of the Canarie (Santucci). This workshop will continue with these themes looking at the set dances and improvised forms of c.1600.

Honouring the dance milieu of the two queens of France, Marie de Medici and Marguerite de Valois, participants (both newcomers and previous attendees) will be guided in the dance steps and skills of the period.
