Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Abstract Chapter 16 discusses the early twentieth-century history of ballet’s development in Canada, Australia, Mexico, South America, South Africa, and East Asia. In Mexico, the formation of indigenous ballet companies such as the Ballet de la Ciudad de México is described, as well as the varying cultural reception of ballet in Mexico in the early twentieth century. Ballet in South America is examined through the development of the Teatro Colón in Buenos Aires, including the early repertory established by choreographer Nijinska. The early history of Cuban ballet is explored through the contributions of Cuban ballerina Alicia Alonso and the influences that led to the formation of the company that would be called the Ballet Nacional de Cuba. The formation of organizations in the 1930s such as the University of Cape Town Ballet are described, including their role in apartheid South Africa. Finally, ballet’s early twentieth-century role in China and Japan is described in terms of the influence of Russian and Soviet artists and its integration in cultural movements and international governmental relations.

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
