Lev Karsavin was born in Saint Petersburg in 1882. His family belonged not to the intelligentsia, but to the artistic milieu: his father was principal dancer at the Mariinsky Theatre, the Saint Petersburg opera house, and his sister Tamara Karsavina became a famous ballerina and went on to dance with Nijinsky 1 . Karsavin himself studied at the Faculty of History and Philology under the distinguished professor Ivan Mikhailovitch Grevs, and was to become one of the most outstanding historians of the Saint Petersburg school, and a specialist on medieval Western spirituality.

  • History Timeline from 13.7 Billion Years Ago to August 2013. 1 of 588 Pages This PDF History Timeline Has Been Extracted
    History Timeline from 13.7 Billion Years ago to August 2013. 1 of 588 pages This PDF History Timeline has been extracted from the History World web site's time line. The PDF is a very simplified version of the History World timeline. The PDF is stripped of all the links found on that timeline. If an entry attracts your interest and you want further detail, click on the link at the foot of each of the PDF pages and query the subject or the PDF entry on the web site, or simply do an internet search. When I saw the History World timeline I wanted a copy of it for myself and my family in a form that we could access off-line, on demand, on the device of our choice. This PDF is the result. What attracted me particularly about the History World timeline is that each event, which might be earth shattering in itself with a wealth of detail sufficient to write volumes on, and indeed many such events have had volumes written on them, is presented as a sort of pared down news head-line. Basic unadorned fact. Also, the History World timeline is multi-faceted. Most historic works focus on their own area of interest and ignore seemingly unrelated events, but this timeline offers glimpses of cross-sections of history for any given time, embracing art, politics, war, nations, religions, cultures and science, just to mention a few elements covered. The view is fascinating. Then there is always the question of what should be included and what excluded.

  • Dancin' in the Rain
    Dancin’ in the Rain A Bit of Portland Dance History – 1900 to 1954 By Carol Shults and Martha Ullman West hen Bill Christensen arrived in Portland in 1932 he created an atmosphere that had not existed before here. Until then, dancing, except for ballroom dance, was an almost exclusively “ladies only” territory. W It was long since respectable, but the energy, channeled into the “artistic” recitals presented by various teachers and their students was distinctly feminine. Portland had seen the American Ted Shawn and the Russian Mikhail Mordkin on the stage, but a local equivalent just didn’t exist. Bill Christensen filled that gap. By 1934, after just two years of attracting supporters and training dancers, he was able to present a spectacle including portions of The Nutcracker at the Rose Festival in collaboration with the Portland Junior Symphony (the original incarnation of today’s Youth Philharmonic). Bill was just 30 years old when he came here after years of touring with his brothers and several partners on the Orpheum vaudeville circuit. Dancing of all kinds, but with a serious emphasis on the classical, was his heritage from the Danish progenitor Lars Christensen who had emigrated to Utah in 1854. Bill was married and the Depression was on. “Nobody had a dime.” Mary Tooze, one of Bill’s students, describes how her mother Ada Ausplund threw herself into supporting Christensen because “here was this wonderful, positive thing for young Pictured left to right in The Nutcracker (1934) people to do.” The effort it took to transport 70 Standing: Norma Nielsen, Willam Christensen, Geraldine Brown, dancers to Seattle for performances there gives an Jacques Gershkovitch (conductor), Hinemoa Cloninger, Betty Dodson idea of the motivating force Bill provided.

    1 A Century of Rites: The Making of an Avant-Garde Tradition Lynn Garafola Since the premiere of The Rite of Spring in 1913, scores of choreographic works to the celebrated Stravinsky music have seen the light of day. In 1987, when Joan Acocella and I compiled a list of as many productions as we could document for the Dance Critics Association symposium "The Rite of Spring at Seventy-Five," the number was forty-four.' (Of course, that was in the Dark Ages before Google and th e Internet!) By the time we republished the list in Ballet Review in 1992, it had climbed to seventy-five, including more than twenty earlier versions we had missed.2 Since then the numbers have grown exponentially. In 1999 the Italian critic Ada d'Adamo counted ninety-three versions.3 Three years later, "Stravin­ sky the Global Dancer," the database developed by Stephanie Jordan and her col­ league Larraine Nicholas at Roehampton University in 2002, recorded 181 set­ tings of the score, with roughly half since 1990 and with several choreographers staging multiple versions.4 After a brief slackening, the numbers spiked again in 2013, with countless new productions and revivals of old ones marking The Rite's centenary. Seemingly the idea of the now-legendary work coupled with its memorable score posed an irresistible challenge. Even as the productions keep coming, like Vaslav Nijinsky's original they keep disappearing, with perhaps two dozen or so in active repertory. To be sure, few dance w9rks outlive the first decade of their creation. They may leave traces, documentary and otherwise, but as living works they enter the limbo of non-per­ formance, where they languish long after any hope of retrievability has gone.
