This groundbreaking collection of essays by a host of international authorities addresses the many aspects of the Danse Macabre, a subject that has been too often overlooked in Anglo-American scholarship. The Danse was once a major motif that occurred in many different media and spread across Europe in the course of the fifteenth century, from France to England, Germany, Scandinavia, Poland, Spain, Italy and Istria. Yet the Danse is hard to define because it mixes metaphors, such as dance, di ...

The Dance of Death: Danse Macabre by Hans Holbein. The Danse Macabre, also called the Dance of Death, is an artistic genre of allegory of the Late Middle Ages on the universality of death: no matter one's station in life, the Dance Macabre unites all. The Danse Macabre consists of the dead or a personification of death summoning representatives from all walks of life to dance along to the grave, typically with a pope, emperor, king, child, and laborer. They were produced as mementos mori, to remind people of the fragility of their lives and how vain were the glories of earthly life. Its origins are postulated from illustrated sermon texts; the earliest recorded visual scheme was a now-lost mural at Holy Innocents' Cemetery in Paris dating from 1424 to 1425.

The Dance Macabre is an epic poem which deals in one respect with the universality of death. Irrespective of one’s class in life, the dance of death unites all. The poem may be linked to a tradition found in many cultures: for Danse Macabre (French), Danza Macabra (Italian and Spanish), or Totentanz (German), were late-medieval allegories which invariably represented a personified Death leading a row of dancing figures to the grave; typically with an emperor, king,youngster, and beautiful girl in the entourage. The intention of such tales and images remind people of how fragile their lives are, and how vain are the glories of earthly life. Its origins derive from illustrated sermon texts; the earliest artistic examples being similar to the one depicted onthe cover, which is adapted from an image found in a cemetery in Paris circa 1424.

'It was the middle of November, I was supposed to be out jogging, but instead I was sitting at my breakfast table talking about men, sex, werewolves and vampires. I should be concentrating on my dangerous situation - the ardeur between me and Jean-Claude, Master Vampire of the City, and Richard, my werewolf lover, is reaching new levels, evolving into something altogether new, acting with a will of its own.' But instead Anita Blake, preternatural expert and feared executioner, is less interested in vampire politics than in the ancient, ordinary dread that women down the ages have experienced: am I pregnant? And, if so, is the father a vampire, a werewolf or someone else entirely. And being a Federal Marshall, known for raising the dead and hunting vampires, is no way to bring up a baby.
