From the PREFACE. The Danish Folk-Dances have the freshness, simplicity and appealing charm that is common to all real folk-dances and folk-songs. The dances contained in this volume are real folk-dances of Denmark which were collected, described and published by the Danish Society for the Promotion of Folk-Dancing, who have done me the honor of authorizing my translation of their work. The idea of forming a Folk-Dance Society in Denmark grew out of a demonstration of Swedish folk-dances given in Copenhagen in 1899 by the Swedish Society "Philochiros," and it was Swedish folk-dancing that was first taken up there.Later, however, in 1901, the Danish Society for the Promotion of Folk-Dancing was organized and the work of collecting the folk-dances, music and costumes of Denmark was begun. This was carried on with some financial aid from the government and resulted in the accumulation of a store of valuable material. The descriptions of the dances were written out and the music arranged by committees and later were published by the Society. A collection of costumes was made which is particularly valuable, as in many localities the beautiful and grand old folk-costumes have now entirely disappeared. It was to this Society that Rudolf Petersen, the Danish artist, came for assistance in painting his now famous frieze of National Costume in Grundtrigs House, which I have used as the cover decoration of this volume.

'A circle whose centre is the devil himself, and whose participants are dancing towards eternal death.' Thus did a medieval Danish priest describe the Ring Dance, and readers of Hans Andersen will recognise this priestly puritanism in the tale of the Red Shoes. A 17th century Bishop of Funen, however, had more liberal views. Having married his two sons at a double wedding, he 'saw no harm in himself dancing a turn with each of the brides'. The natural light-heartedness of the Dane is never long suppressed, and today there is a rich and living tradition of folk dance, costume and music. Mr. Jeppessen was the chairman of the Danish Association for the Encouragement of Folk Dancing, and Mr. Lorenzen was a well-known folklorist who modestly describes his wide researches as 'a hobby'. As in the other books of the series, they have chosen four dances for more detailed description, and the book is illustrated with four costume plates in full colour.
