Summary "The Art of Ballet" by Mark Edward Perugini is a historical account written in the early 20th century. The book explores the evolution of the art of ballet, particularly in France and England, emphasizing its development and significance over the centuries. It aims to provide a rich narrative that highlights the key milestones and figures in ballet history, tracing its roots and transformations without attempting to cover every detail from every country. The opening of the text serves as an introduction and preface to the detailed exploration that follows. Perugini discusses the nature of ballet as an art form, addressing criticisms and misconceptions. He emphasizes the historical significance of ballet, acknowledging that it has existed for around two thousand years and has been a source of aesthetic pleasure across cultures. Perugini also sets the stage for the examination of ballet's elements—dancing, miming, music, and scenic effects—highlighting their intertwined histories and contributions to what is recognized as professional ballet today.
