Gabriele D’Annunzio’s projects with Ida Rubinstein; Hugo von Hofmanns thal’s pantomimes for Grete Wiesenthal; W. B. Yeats’s work with Michio Ito and Ninette de Valois; and Paul Claudel’s collaborations with Jean Börlin and the Ballets Suédois are studied in depth to shed new light on an evolving dance-theatre form within Symbolist culture. Buoyed by the era’s heightened interest in the expressive qualities of the body, these playwrights were highly invested in the authority of language, yet were drawn to the capacity of dance to evoke spiritual or psychological states which words could not completely capture. In its belief of fundamental correspondences among the arts, Symbolism encouraged experimentation across disciplines, and this study traces interconnections among many of its significant figures including Max Reinhardt, Claude Debussy, Gertrud Eysoldt, Edward Gordon Craig, Bronislava Nijinksa, Isadora Duncan, Jaques Dalcroze, Darius Milhaud, Vsevolod Meyerhold, Mariano Fortuny, Terence Gray, George Antheil, Eleonora Duse, and Michel Fokine.Internationale Forschungen zur allgemeinen und vergleichenden Literaturwissenschaft ;113.Literature, Modern20th centuryHistory and criticismModern danceHistorySymbolism (Art movement)InfluenceSymbolism (Literary movement)Symbolism in literatureElectronic books.Literature, ModernHistory and criticism.Modern danceHistory.Symbolism (Art movement)Influence.Symbolism (Literary movement)Symbolism in literature.792.09409041Fleischer Mary961206MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910451701203321Embodied texts2179128UNINA
