Nijinsky, Pavlova, Diaghilev...the great names of ballet are all to be found, together with the lesser-known, in this concise yet comprehensive history of the art. Ivor Guest traces the development of ballet from its beginnings which took the form of elaborate masquerades in the Italian courts of the Renaissance, to the various different forms taken by twentieth century ballet. The book is written as a continuous and vivid narrative, and the dancers and choreographers who have built upon the traditions of ballet through the centuries are made very real to use by fascinating details and anecdotes.","brand":"Country House Library","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":39861051883607,"sku":"7861133","price":7.83,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2458\/8207\/products\/orig_243431_jpg.jpg?v=1658930268","url":"https:\/\/countryhouselibrary.co.uk\/products\/the-dancers-heritage-by-ivor-guest-pelican-1962","provider":"Country House Library ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
