Summary
Ana Maletić: History of dance of ancient civilizations I - II.
I. part: From Mesopotamia to Rome
The first part of the book History of dance of ancient civilizations is devoted to the study of dance in Mesopotamia, ancient Egypt, Greece and Rome, as well as the dance of the Hebrews, Etruscans and Illyrians. The author completed the manuscript of this book back in 1979, but until now it was only a part of her rich and valuable legacy stored in the Croatian State Archives. The publication of this simply and popularly written manuscript is therefore a real cultural event, since books on the subject of dance art are almost never published in Croatia.
II. part: Asian dance traditions
The second volume of the book is dedicated to dance in Eastern civilizations.
