The Dance In India
Faubion Bowers (Author)
New York: Columbia University Press (Publisher)

First edition, 1953

Faubion Bowers was born in Oklahoma in 1917. Since that time a third of his life has been spent abroad as a concert pianist in France and Switzerland, as a language student and college teacher in Japan and Indonesia before the war, as an officer in the United States Anny on almost every major island from Australia to Okinawa, as an aide to General MacArthur in Japan and later as censor of the Japanese theatre, and as a journalist from virtually every country of Asia, and most recently from Africa. For the last ten years he has devoted most of his attention to the dance and drama in Asia, not only in order to interpret those art forms to the West, but also to use them as a key to greater understanding of the people of Asia and to closer relations between the East and West. His recent book Japanese Theatre received both critical and popular acclaim. His numerous articles have appeared in The New Yorker magazine, The New York Herald Tribune, Theatre Arts magazine, and Dance Magazine, as well as in other American and Asian publications. His reputation as one of the world’s few authorities on Asian theatre forms gives his writing a pre-eminence enjoyed by few others and a special significance at the present time, when relations between the East and the West have become of such paramount interest.
