Image description

Tanzfest Bei Hofe. Der Gesellschaftstanz des Mittelalters war im Gegensatz zu den Hupftanzen der Bauern ein gemessenes Schreiten. Ahnlich der heutigen Polonase schritt man paarweise hintereinander durch den Saal und folgte einem Vortanzer, oder die Tanzenden bildeten eine zu verschiedenen Figuren sich schlingende Kette. Die Bewegungen entsprachen dem langsamen Rhythmus der Musik. Translation: Dance Festival at Court. The ballroom dancing of the Middle Ages, in contrast to the hopping dances of the peasants, was a measured stride. Similar to today's polonase, one walked in pairs through the hall one behind the other and followed a lead dancer, or the dancers formed a chain looping into different figures. The movements corresponded to the slow rhythm of the music. Illustration for Deutsche Kulturbilder, 1400-1900 (Cigaretten-Bilderdienst Hamburg-Bahrenfeld, 1934).
