[QUOTE]Originally posted by Brada-Anansi: [QB] Ahem Tinman ah hate to tell you this but Whites were in imitation of blacks and others for hundreds of yrs till at times it degrades into mockery called Minstrel shows that's the blackening of the face,but it didn't start out as such. Origins of the term While there is still some dispute as to the origin of the term "morris," the most widely accepted theory is that the term was moorish dance, morisques in France, Moriskentanz in Germany, moreška in Croatia, and moresco, moresca or morisca in Italy and Spain, which eventually became morris dance.[4] Dances with similar names and some similar features are mentioned in Renaissance documents in France, Italy, Germany, Croatia, and Spain; throughout, in fact, Catholic Europe. This is hardly surprising; by 1492 Ferdinand of Aragon and Isabella of Castille succeeded in driving the Moors out of Spain and unifying the country. In celebration of this a pageant known as a Moresca was devised and performed. This can still be seen performed in places such as Ainsa, Aragon. Incorporated into this pageant was the local dance - the Paloteao. This too can still be seen performed in the villages of Aragon. The original ´Moresca´ is a sword dance. The sticks in Morris dance are a residual of the swords in the 'Moresca'. The similarity to what became known as the English "morris" is undoubted. Early court records state that the "moresque" was performed at court in her honour, including the dance - the "moresque" or "morisce" or "morys" dance. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r2LwaO-qCi8 click^ me please http://thenile.phpbb-host.com/phpbb/ftopic2364-0-asc-30.php [IMG]http://www.afropop.org/img/world_music/african_music/europe/spain/andalus2004/Miniature-2lutes.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://www.author-me.com/images/clip_image007_0000.jpg[/IMG] [b]"Moor and Peasant in a dance" Nuremberg City Library.[/b] [/QB][/QUOTE]
