The book of Doctor of Historical Sciences, Professor Oksana Yurievna Zakharova opens to the reader a special, unseen and little studied world of ball ceremonial... The author, based on historical sources, tells about the origin and development of the Russian ball, the history of dance and costume, the symbolism of gesture, the design of ballrooms. This study is in many respects of applied nature. For the first time published figures of cotillion allow to reproduce this dance at modern balls. In its own way unique published in the book's textbook, in which the reader for the first time is given the opportunity, together with the heroes of Pushkin, Lermontov, Gogol, Danilevsky, Zagoskin, Baratynsky, Bunin, Kuprin and others to visit the balls of the XVIII-XX centuries, to feel the poetic world of ball culture. You are waiting for a fascinating historical journey, immersion in the amazing interweaving of epochs and destinies, politics and culture.
