Since its inception, French opera has embraced dance, yet all too often operatic dancing is treated as mere decoration. Dance and Drama in French Baroque Opera exposes the multiple and meaningful roles that dance has played, starting from Jean-Baptiste Lully's first opera in 1672. It counters prevailing notions in operatic historiography that dance was parenthetical and presents compelling evidence that the divertissement - present in every act of every opera - is essential to understanding the work. The book considers the operas of Lully - his lighter works as well as his tragedies - and the 46-year period between the death of Lully and the arrival of Rameau, when influences from the commedia dell'arte and other theatres began to inflect French operatic practices. It explores the intersections of musical, textual, choreographic and staging practices at a complex institution - the Academie Royale de Musique - which upheld as a fundamental aesthetic principle the integration of dance into opera.

Dance played a fundamental role in French Baroque theatrical entertainments. Le Mariage de la Grosse Cathos, a comic mascarade composed by Andre Danican Philidor in 1688, is of major importance, because it is the only theatrical work from the court of Louis XIV to have survived complete in all its components - choreography, music, and text, both spoken and sung. It provides a concrete model not only of how dance was integrated into the musical theatre, but of how ballets - or even operaswere staged. Moreover, it uses a previously unknown dance notation system developed around the same time as Feuillet notation by choreographer Jean Favier l'aine. This book reproduces the entire manuscript of the mascarade and provides a comprehensive study of the work itself and of the circumstances in which it was created and performed. Chapters devoted to the music, the dance, and the performers provide a framework for understanding the performance context not only of this work, but of other court entertainments of the period. A study and evaluation of the notation system in which the dances are recorded, together with detailed analyses of the dances and of the movement indications for the musicians, complete the monograph.

J. Percy Priest and His Amazing Race is a gift from Rebecca Harris Stubbs to anyone interested in Tennessee history, American political history, and the heroes who made this country great. With previously unpublished letters, personal commentaries from Priest's friends and associates, and academic analysis extracted from local, state, and federal records, the author treats us to a light, often delightful, and distinctly tender narrative. She delves into the life of a former schoolteacher and journalist who entered Congress with an upset win after a mere eight-week campaign, and became a powerful committee chairman, an influential Congressional leader, and close friend of Billy Graham. Priest left a pronounced mark on Tennessee and American history, and his name is still associated with integrity, commitment, and honor more than fifty years after his untimely death at the age of fifty-six. For anyone in need of a reminder of what American hero means, this is a book that must be read.
Based on a true account, this work shares the modern struggles of a small town girl on her journey to finding Christ. It is an inspiring story of love, hope, and forgiveness.
