'Religious Dances' is an account of the origins and history of
religious dances and their significance in the Christian church.
The author attempts to assess the role which religious dancing has
played in the history of medicine and the healing of sickness, and
points to disease in cereal plants as one probable cause of dancing
epidemics. He pays particular attention to the dancing epidemics of
the Middle Ages and he believes that the legend of the Pied Piper
of Hamelin had its origins in one of these epidemics. Heavily
illustrated, and packed with dates, facts, and quotations,
Religious Dances is a standard work on its subject.
