Providing an overview of modern activities and trends in the teaching and performance of Duncan's dance, the author describes her own work directing The Isadora Duncan Dance Ensemble, the company that sought to implement Duncan's mission to create not a school of dance but 'a school of life.'"--|cPublisher description. 600 10 Duncan, Isadora,|d1877-1927. 600 10 Duncan, Isadora,|d1877-1927|xInfluence. 600 10 Mantell-Seidel, Andrea. 600 10 Duncan, Isadora,|d1877-1927|xCriticism and interpretation. 610 20 Isadora Duncan Dance Ensemble|xHistory. 650 0 Dancers|zUnited States|vBiography. 650 0 Modern dance|xHistory. 650 0 Modern dance. 910 DC 201604 945 MARCIVE (03/23)
