A brief about the book on the importance of dance - Mundi Alwaf: The contexts and purposes of dance across spacetime surpass enumeration, as it is present in celebrations and war, in manners and passionate emotions, and in the oral history of peoples, cinema, and theater, as well as in songs and the public display of physical beauty as a political force, as in the perfect dance of the teenager Louis XIV, the Sun King; and the enchanting muscular twists in their slow motion for the goddess Apsara in the Cambodian royal court and the astronomical insights into spiritual visions represented by the rapid rotation of planets, celebrated in poems and philosophical writings from the early Renaissance, the Enlightenment, as well as the writings of Friedrich Nietzsche, Søren Kierkegaard, Ezra Pound, T. S. Eliot, Marian Moore, Kenneth Koch, Nagonston Hughes, Joue Hargo, and even death, which has been depicted and embodied in dance, as seen in the Dance of Death painting that was created during the recovery from the plague in Europe in 1348. Nevertheless, the most important thing in explaining the reason for the continued presence of dance as a cultural practice in human history is certainly the pleasure it provides.
