The Choreography of Modernism in France: La Danseuse 1830-1930

by Julie Townsend

This study considers the figure of the female dancer in French literary, visual, and performing art from 1830 to 1930. It explores how manifestations of the la danseuse shape notions of Modernism and asks why dance occupies a privileged position in a variety of Modernist media.
