O tym produkcie

Product Information

Akim Volynsky was a Russian literary critic, journalist, and art historian who became Saint Petersburg s liveliest and most prolific ballet critic in the early part of the twentieth century. This book, the first English edition of his provocative and influential writings, provides a striking look at life inside the world of Russian ballet at a crucial era in its history.Stanley J. Rabinowitz selects and translates forty of Volynsky s articles vivid, eyewitness accounts that sparkle with details about the careers and personalities of such dance luminaries as Anna Pavlova, Mikhail Fokine, Tamara Karsavina, and George Balanchine, at that time a young dancer in the Maryinsky company whose keen musical sense and creative interpretive power Volynsky was one of the first to recognize. Rabinowitz also translates Volynsky s magnum opus, "The Book of Exaltations, " an elaborate meditation on classical dance technique that is at once a primer and an ideological treatise. Throughout his writings, Rabinowitz argues in his critical introduction, which sets Volynsky s life and work against the backdrop of the principal intellectual currents of his time, Volynsky emphasizes the spiritual and ethereal qualities of ballet."

This particular set of books was apparently in the hands of a very heavy smoker, as all of them reek of the smell of cigarette smoke; this should have been noted in the description of the product. We will have to get rid of this set, as it smells up the house - we are non-smokers, and have a low tolerance for the odor.

Please note that all of our items come from a non-smoking home. Given the age of this set (from 1952), it may have developed a slight musty scent over time. This was an isolated incident, and I strive to accurately describe all items. Rest assured, I take great care in ensuring the quality of my books.
