Medieval Times: Castle Dances





(min 3)



Main Points Duscussed

Dance was not considered an art; it function was limited.
It had a social purpose for the nobility, basically show wealth and alternate with other nobles.
It had an entertaining purpose for the peasants, who danced during some pagan festivals that increasingly became co-opted by the Catholic Church.
When it was done as a form of worship, it was condemned by the church as sorcery.
The body was a source of sinful behavior so, it was not welcomed by the Catholic Church
