Clipped article about dance pasted to front end papers, moderate foxing to some plates, small old ink stain to outer margin of the last few leaves; in general a sound very good copy, complete with all plates. An earli…er edition was published in London by James Bulcock in 1828. An important book in the literature of dance. [Gabriele Brandstettter, 2005: "In The Code of Terpsichore, published in 1828, Blasis cataloged a clearly defined "alphabet" of dance poses. This may be the first attempt at a comprehensive systemization of dance." ]. A difficult book to find complete and in decent condition.
