Cavalieri's theatrical 'Ballo' "O che nuovo miracolo": a reconstruction

Article Abstract:

Researchers have little information on sixteenth-century Italian court dance. The information is usually found in collections of dances written for a small number of courtiers to perform for personal enjoyment at informal gatherings. Dancing was a major part of the magnificent festivities organized for public events. Lacking evidence suggests that the structure of these dances are rare.

The end of the beginnings

Article Abstract:

Theoretical and observational cosmologists are near to agreeing the processes by which galaxies are formed and evolved, following several recent galaxy surveys. Research into the star-formation history of the universe that maps out redshift curves supports hierarchical models, but an unresolved question that remains is the overall star-formation rate.
