Tóm tắt

"The tango is the most iconic dance of the twentieth century and now of the twenty-first. This historical text peels back the propaganda that characterizes the dance. Topics covered include the tango's earliest origins, the sexualization of the dance, its place in Argentinian culture, and the mythological prohibition against it"--Provided by publisher.
