Описание: The first major biography of George Balanchine, who revolutionized dance with hundreds of ballets including his now iconic version of The Nutcracker--a big-canvas portrait set against the backdrop of the tumultuous century that shaped him, from the bestselling author of Apollos Angels.

Arguably the greatest choreographer who ever lived--The New York Times called him the Shakespeare of dancing--George Balanchine was one of the cultural titans of the twentieth century. His radical approach to choreography--and life--reinvented the art of dance and made him a legend. Written with enormous style and artistry, and based on over 100 interviews and research in archives across Russia, Europe, and the Americas, Mr. B carries us through Balanchines tumultuous and high-pitched life story and into the making of his extraordinary dances.

Balanchines life coincided with some of the biggest historical events of his time. Born in Russia under the last Czar, Balanchine experienced the upheavals of World War I, the Russian Revolution, exile, World War II, and the Cold War. A co-founder of the New York City Ballet, he pressed dance in America to the forefront of modernism and made it a popular art. None of this was easy, and Homans shows us his loneliness and failures, his five marriages--all to dancers--and many loves. We follow his bouts of ill health and spiritual crises, and learn of his profound musical skills and sensibility, and his immense determination to make some of the most glorious, strange, and beautiful dances ever to grace the modern stage.

With full access to Balanchines papers and many of his dancers, Jennifer Homans, the dance critic for The New Yorker and a former dancer herself, has spent more than a decade researching Balanchines life and times to write a vast history of the twentieth century through the lens of one of its greatest artists, and the definitive biography of the man his dancers called Mr. B.

NATIONAL BESTSELLER

For more than four hundred years, the art of ballet has stood at the center of Western civilization. Its traditions serve as a record of our past. Lavishly illustrated and beautifully told, Apollo's Angels--the first cultural history of ballet ever written--is a groundbreaking work. From ballet's origins in the Renaissance and the codification of its basic steps and positions under France's Louis XIV (himself an avid dancer), the art form wound its way through the courts of Europe, from Paris and Milan to Vienna and St. Petersburg. In the twentieth century, emigre dancers taught their art to a generation in the United States and in Western Europe, setting off a new and radical transformation of dance. Jennifer Homans, a historian, critic, and former professional ballerina, wields a knowledge of dance born of dedicated practice. Her admiration and love for the ballet, as Entertainment Weekly notes, brings "a dancer's grace and sure-footed agility to the page."

Описание: Excerpt from Fibroid Tumors of the Uterus

Death by hemorrhage is very rare. I have knowl edge of only three instances. Many women are blanched, and anemic, and feeble, but they live, and most of them are relieved by curetting, or at times by electrolysis d a Apostoli, or by the removal of a pedunculated fibroid from the interior of the uterus, or by enucleating a half-extruded one.

The feeling of weight and inconvenience caused by these tumors is sufficient in some cases to call for their removal, and the sufferer has a right to demand operation, even if life is not threatened, for surgery is not only to save life, but to contribute to its comfort; and there is no class of cases in which the decision of the patient has more weight than in these cases of fibroid tumors. I do not want to carry this thing any longer; it annoys me. I can not stoop to button my boots, andi want it re moved, said a woman to me. I had put her off several months, and she had abundant time to think the matter over. I thought she had a right to decide the question of operation. I removed the tumor, and she got well.
