The Morris Book, Part 4: With A Description Of Dances As Performed By The Morris Men Of England (1911) is a comprehensive guide to the traditional English folk dance known as Morris dancing. Written by Cecil James Sharp, a prominent collector and promoter of folk music and dance in the early 20th century, this book is the fourth in a series of publications on Morris dancing. The book contains detailed descriptions of the various Morris dances, including their origins, music, steps, and costumes. It also includes illustrations and photographs of Morris dancers in action, as well as musical notation for the accompanying tunes. Sharp's writing is informed by his deep knowledge and appreciation of English folk culture, and he includes historical and cultural context for the dances he describes. The book is intended both for scholars and enthusiasts of Morris dancing, as well as for dancers themselves who wish to learn and perform the traditional dances. Overall, The Morris Book, Part 4 is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history and practice of Morris dancing, and a testament to the enduring appeal of this vibrant and colorful tradition.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
