Synopsis

Dance Feud History explores how personal animosity and artistic rivalry have significantly shaped the evolution of dance and the performing arts. It delves into the power struggles, conflicting aesthetic visions, and personal ambitions that fueled clashes between dancers, choreographers, and dance companies. The book argues that these feuds, while often destructive, paradoxically acted as catalysts for artistic innovation, pushing boundaries and leading to new styles and techniques. Consider, for example, the tension between traditional ballet and the rise of modern dance, which spurred heated debates and creative breakthroughs.

 
The book examines the social and cultural forces that intensified these rivalries, from competition for funding to clashes over artistic merit and cultural representation. By analyzing archival materials, personal letters, and choreographic works, it reconstructs the dynamics of these conflicts, offering a unique perspective on dance legacies.

 
The book unfolds by first introducing the concept of artistic rivalry, then delving into specific case studies of iconic figures and companies, and finally analyzing the long-term consequences of these feuds on the dance landscape. This approach offers a valuable understanding to dance students, historians, and enthusiasts by placing artistic clashes at the center of its analysis. It connects to broader fields like art history and sociology, providing insights into creativity and human behavior within competitive artistic communities.

    Uncover the suppressed testimony of the Lone Star State's uncomfortable past.Tinseltown almost always gets Texas wrong. The "Searchers" never did that much searching, the "Giants" were hardly ever big in terms of character and The Last Picture Show was just the beginning of a disturbing reveal. As acclaimed writer Stephen Harrigan suggests, the Lone Star State was not exactly a Big, Wonderful Thing, and for too many Texans, nothing was ever "Awright, Awright, Awright." A Black civil rights champion was assassinated in 1976, and the incident was buried. A "Cowtown Catcher in the Rye" was published in 1940, and the country club set made it disappear. And the war machines of Hitler and Mussolini were perfected with Texas oil during the Spanish Civil War. Author E.R. Bills challenges his proud neighbors, earnestly asking them to take a hard look at their past and examine their own historical amnesia, cultural fragility and fierce denial.
