Lacus amoenus/horridus. <i>Messinscena di storie ed immaginari intorno al</i> Lago dei cigni

Abstract

Born under Symbolism influence until Art Nouverau style, the Swan Lake ballet moves towards a soil tilled by dubious figures of Romantic derivation. The swan, the swans, become masks of a fear, of a contradiction of being that man always exorcises stressing a very masculin disfunction between two sexes.
