	Untitled Document
		Edwin Denby, in an essay of 1943, on the choreographic work of Tudor, states that the visual rhythm evident in dance movement is comparable to that present in the cinema.
		The central point of the dance criticism of Edwin Denby is the universal perspective of its references and arguments for the relativity of dance cultures and dance forms, whether be that of African-Americans or that of Russians.
		Edwin Denby believed that Gautier had overcome this vexing paradox by simply ignoring the choreographic structure of dance and gliding over its technical component by writing from the perspective of a civilized entertainment seeker, that is the audience.

		At the historical moment Edwin Denby was writing his dance criticism, two revolutions were being effected in American and European dance culture: the Modernism of Martha Graham in modern dance and the Classicism of George Balanchine in classical ballet.
		Edwin Denby was well aware that technique was in many ways the central construct in the creative process of contemporary dance culture.

	Dance Criticism by Croce, Denby, Siegel
		Denby saw himself as a poet who wrote dance criticism, and his observations are often framed in terms of the poetic possibilities of dance.
		One frustration in reading Denby's criticism is the frequency with which he delivers critical verdicts without giving us much sense of the characteristics of the work or the performance which led him to his conclusions.
		Denby's skepticism -- or at least ambivalence -- about the possibility of objective criticism is not articulated in explicit terms, but his subjectivist leanings are dominant.

		Edwin Denby, who died in 1983, was the most important and influential American dance critic of this century.

		Denby's writings are presented chronologically, and they not only provide a picture of how his dance theories and reviewing methods evolved but also give an informal history of dance in New York from the late 1930s to the early 1960s.

		Denby's mission was to define the terms of dancewriting and make it vital to the art form.
		Denby himself sites a great reason for choreographers to be concise in a review of the first mounting of Balanchine's Apollo where he cites lines by Richard Howard on poetry, that advise, "...Always halve the line so that a rest is heard." But frequently fails to apply the tenet himself.

	Jacket 21 — Noel Sheridan: Remembering Edwin Denby
		Once with a ‘Denby orphan’ — I think Edwin was a magnet for difficult cases — who had a very complicated life.
		Edwin was shaken, but this other guy, with all the self- obsession of the nicely stoned, kept on about problems with the painting — and frogs.
		Edwin’s smile was setting into a rictus of pain as I led Bob, yes, that was his name, down the stairs and into the street where he continued to try to grapple with the mysteries of death and chance and make sense of them to himself and to me.
