As political and social structures changed in fifteenth- and sixteenth-century Italy, skill in dancing became an increasingly valued attribute, the function and performance of dance evolved in response to those changes, and, in tandem with these developments, a professional category of dancing masters emerged. In this study, I argue that dancing, which offered a formal, yet clearly understood and highly valued means of social participation and expression, provides a useful barometer for the modern social historian to study shifts in underlying attitudes and structures. I support this contention with a prosopographical account of the social and professional lives of the dancing masters, complemented with microhistorical studies of Guglielmo Ebreo da Pesaro and Cesare Negri. I end with an analysis of dancing as vocational field which grew in importance and in the scope of its activities. Dancing masters prepared an increasing number of participants with dance training to meet expanding venues and to keep up with current aesthetic preferences and attitudes towards the body and its expression. Changes in the practice of dance can be set against trends in other social, political, and economic arenas, and I contend that “<italic> physicalité</italic>” can be historicized, much as is its binary partner, “<italic>mentalité</italic>.”

520 $a As political and social structures changed in fifteenth- and sixteenth-century Italy, skill in dancing became an increasingly valued attribute, the function and performance of dance evolved in response to those changes, and, in tandem with these developments, a professional category of dancing masters emerged. In this study, I argue that dancing, which offered a formal, yet clearly understood and highly valued means of social participation and expression, provides a useful barometer for the modern social historian to study shifts in underlying attitudes and structures. I support this contention with a prosopographical account of the social and professional lives of the dancing masters, complemented with microhistorical studies of Guglielmo Ebreo da Pesaro and Cesare Negri.

Dancing masters prepared an increasing number of participants with dance training to meet expanding venues and to keep up with current aesthetic preferences and attitudes towards the body and its expression.

520 $a I depend, in great measure, on the treatises written by the dancing masters themselves. In addition to technical instruction, treatises provide information about desired body use, gestures of courtesy, behavior between people of different sexes or ranks, and details concerning both performances and personnel. In addition, I turn to letters, literature, chronicles, and official records, some not previously examined by modern social or cultural historians.
520 $a The study is centered on Milan. In spite of foreign rule, members of the patriciate continued to participate in political activities as well as in court festivities. Milan's reputation as a center of the finest dancing and most skillful dancing masters in Europe stimulated the export of Italianate artistic practices throughout the courts of Europe and enhanced Italy's continued role in European cultural life.
