Description

by Ann Daly (Author)

The larger-than-life story of an American dance icon.

This cultural study of modern dance icon Isadora Duncan is the first to place her within the thought, politics and art of her time. Duncan's dancing earned her international fame and influenced generations of American girls and women, yet the romantic myth that surrounds her has left some questions unanswered: What did her audiences see on stage, and how did they respond? What dreams and fears of theirs did she play out? Why, in short, was Duncan's dancing so compelling? First published in 1995 and now back in print, Done into Dance reveals Duncan enmeshed in social and cultural currents of her time -- the moralism of the Progressive Era, the artistic radicalism of prewar Greenwich Village, the xenophobia of the 1920s, her association with feminism and her racial notion of "Americanness."

Author Biography

Ann Daly is Associate Professor of Dance History/Criticism at The University of Texas at Austin and author of Critical Gestures: Writings on Dance and Culture (Wesleyan, 2002). Done into Dance received the Outstanding Publication Award from the Congress on Research in Dance.
