Title: Dance in the art of Ancient Greece Author: Bc. Markéta Strouhalová Department: Institute for Classical archeology, Charles University Supervisor: Doc. PhDr. Iva Ondřejová, Csc. Abstract: Dance is a manifestation of the social behavior. The art of dance was considered as very important part of life in Ancient Greece. The gods danced and Greeks imitated the divine example. The Ancient Greek preference for dancing is supported by evidence of many iconographical monuments, which are the main theme of this work together along with the characteristic of Greek dance and its many social functions. The collected monuments characterize the reflection of Greek dance from the Geometric period (comparison with the Bronze Age situation) to the Hellenistic period with overlapping into the Roman decorative art. Keywords: Dance. Ancient Greek art.
