CHAPTER VII MENTAL REACTIONS "The laws of moral nature answer to those of matter as face to face in a glass . . . "The axioms of physics translate the laws of ethics. Thus: Reaction is equal to action." Emerson. IN the formulation of a new theory, child of one's own brain, one is confronted with many difficulties, not the least among them being that of making intelligible the language with which it has spoken at birth; a language quite clear to its parent, rendered so by the absence of any necessity for actual utterance, and above all for the reason that one has lived with it from its birth and become familiar with its every expression. The theory enunciated in the following chapters is the result of five years' work, during which every step was proved, not only in my own experience, but in that of many others. It is offered because it is a conviction-- drawn from ideas, practice, experience and realisation. The reflex action of physical movement upon the brain is not yet generally recognised, although the admitted relation between muscle and mind has been proved by the latest method of training a mentally deficient child through motor culture to intellectual. But I have gone farther, by proving that the principle may be applied in more elaborate form to the normal child, also to the adult, with the certainty of being able to produce a higher stage of mental development. The individual powers are increased to their maximum, and great change in degree may become change in kind. The link between the two organisations is Tension, which, while connecting the chain of physical processes with that of the mental, is allied to both. This merging of the organisations is only possible when the degree of sensitiveness to which the nervous and...

Download or read book Greek Tragedy and the British Theatre 1660-1914 written by Edith Hall and published by OUP Oxford. This book was released on 2005-07-14 with total page 768 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This lavishly illustrated book offers the first full, interdisciplinary investigation of the historical evidence for the presence of ancient Greek tragedy in the post-Restoration British theatre, where it reached a much wider audience - including women - than had access to the original texts. Archival research has excavated substantial amounts of new material, both visual and literary, which is presented in chronological order. But the fundamental aim is to explain why Greek tragedy, which played an elite role in the curricula of largely conservative schools and universities, was magnetically attractive to political radicals, progressive theatre professionals, and to the aesthetic avant-garde. All Greek has been translated, and the book will be essential reading for anyone interested in Greek tragedy, the reception of ancient Greece and Rome, theatre history, British social history, English studies, or comparative literature.

Download or read book The Ancient Dancer in the Modern World written by Fiona Macintosh and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2012-07-05 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When the eighteenth-century choreographer Jean-Georges Noverre sought to develop what is now known as modern ballet, he turned to ancient pantomime as his source of inspiration; and when Isadora Duncan and her contemporaries looked for alternatives to the strictures of classical ballet, they looked to ancient Greek vases for models for what they termed 'natural' movement. This is the first book to examine systematically the long history of the impact of ideas about ancient Greek and Roman dance on modern theatrical and choreographic practices. With contributions from eminent classical scholars, dance historians, theatre specialists, modern literary critics, and art historians, as well as from contemporary practitioners, it offers a very wide conspectus on an under-explored but central aspect of classical reception, dance and theatre history, and the history of ideas.
