| description | The mainstream fields of Polish dance research were defined
in 1818–1847 by Józef Elsner, Kazimierz Brodziński, Łukasz
Gołębiowski and Karol Czerniawski, who broadly characterized some
elements of the dances considered as national (the polonaise, mazur,
krakowiak and kozak). Oskar Kolberg knew very well the works of all
these authors and referred to them many times. However, he was unique
in his extensive documentation of dance melodies, information about
their geographic origin, and local terminology. He also characterized
the dances with regard to their sequence in the traditional context and
described the dance technique in an instructive manner. |
