1996cm. 17 x 24, x-518 pp. Fondazione Giorgio Cini - Studi di musica veneta Fin dalle origini l?umanit? ha espresso profonde emozioni attraverso la danza, sempre presente nei riti e nelle cerimonie di tutte le culture, con un ruolo importante anche nella musica e nello spettacolo occidentale. Il ballo - battistrada per le ricerche sull?astrazione dell?ermetismo - ? presente in questo volume nell?accezione teatrale, con l?approfondimento di quel ?super-genere? che ? il pantomimo, in una silloge di rilevanti studi per onorare la memoria di un grande maestro: Aurel Millos. Since the beginning of time mankind has expressed deep emotion through dance, ever present in rituals and ceremonies of all cultures, with an important r?le in music and theatrical events of the West. Dance - leading the way to research on the abstraction of hermeticism - is present in this volume in its theatrical form, probing into its ?super-genre? which is pantomime in a collection of important studies to honour the memory of a great master. 1021 gr. x-518 p.

First edition 8vo pp. 19 1; original brown printed wrappers; some minor creasing slight separation at the top of the spine; all else very good. Inscribed at the top of the from wrapper: "With kindest regards of / A. Stein." Pandit Govind Kaul a respected scholar of Persian and Sanskrit was born in Srinagar and came into contact with Aurel Stein through George Buhler "that doyen of European Indologists . It was Buhler's commendatory reference that attracted Stein's attention towards G.K. and he solicited his assistance in translating Kalhan's Rajatarangini - a job that G.K. along with Pandit Sahaz Bhatt did with utmost competence from 1888 to 1896 and to Stein's great satisfaction. "G.K. went into another collaboration with Stein and fellow scholar Sahaz Bhatt when they classified and catalogued more than six thousand Sanskrit manuscripts for Maharaja Ranbir Singh's library at Raghunath Temple Jammu. Yet another contribution G.K. made was to compile Kashmiri folk tales with Stein which the latter formally edited with George Grierson and published in 1917 as " Hatim's Tales." The tales supposedly told by one Hatim Tilawony were interpreted by Govind Kaul who also rendered assistance to Grierson in the compilation of his Kashmiri dictionary but did not live to see the work completed. Grierson went on to record later that Govind Kaul's assistance to him was "one of the many debts he ever owed to Stein. "On Govind Kaul's death in June 1899 a shocked Stein lamented that Govind Kaul ''like another Kalhana departed as my best Indian friend beyond all hope of reunion in this Janma'. Paying fulsome tributes to him Stein wrote: 'Whenever Govind Kaul was by my side whether in the dusty exile of Lahore or alpine coolness of Mohand Marg in Kashmir I was in continuity with the past as the historical student of India. His personality embodied all that change of ages indicated and showed as the mind and psyche of India'." Nine in OCLC: only Harvard LC and Wisconsin in the US.
