In this rich interdisciplinary study Tim Scholl provides a provocative and timely reevaluation of the development of ballet from the 1880s to the middle of the twentieth century. In the light of a thoughtful reappraisal of dance classicism he locates the roots of modern ballet in the works of Marius Petipa, rather than in the muchcelebrated choreographic experiements of Diaghilev's Ballet Russe.Not only is this the first book to present nineteenth and twentiethcentury ballet as a continuous rather than broken tradition, From Petipa to Balanchine places works such as Sleeping Beauty, Les Sylphides, Apollo and Jewells in their proper cultural and artistic context.The only Englishlanguage study to be based on the original Russian soures, this book will be essential reading for all dance scholars. Written in an engaging and elegant style it will also appeal to anyone interested in the history of ballet generally.
