This book is a compilation of Isadora Duncan's main texts on her conception of dance, her school projects, and her idea of education. It includes reflections on the relationship between art and nature, dance and the plastic arts, and dance and music. The work collects, through small notes and essays, the ideas that shaped Isadora Duncan's thinking about dance, with a background in which Greek civilization acquires a role of special relevance. It also includes opinions on other aspects of the world of music and the contemporary political situation.
Angela Isadora Duncan was an American-born dancer and choreographer, who was a pioneer of modern contemporary dance and performed to great acclaim throughout Europe and the United States. Born and raised in California, she lived and danced in Western Europe, the U.S., and Soviet Russia from the age of 22. She died when her scarf became entangled in the wheel and axle of the car in which she was travelling in Nice, France.
