520 _a"The Russian Ballet" by A. E. Johnson is a historical account written in the early 20th century. The book explores the emergence and impact of the Russian Ballet as a theatrical art form, detailing its evolution and highlighting notable performances and figures in the genre, such as dancer Vaslav Nijinsky and designer Léon Bakst. It aims to capture the fervor and artistic significance of the Russian Ballet's influence on audiences in England, France, and beyond. The opening of the work begins with an introduction that positions the Russian Ballet within a historical context, outlining its roots in early dance customs and the subsequent revival in Russia, which brought it back to prominence amidst a period of decline in Western ballet. Johnson details how this revival captivated international audiences, noting specific ballets and their innovative choreographies.
