"Diaghilev's Russian Ballet" is a celebrated monograph by Lynn Garafola, professor of dance at Columbia University, a member of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences, and a leading authority on the history of Russian ballet. "The history of twentieth-century ballet has not known a company that has left as deep and influential a mark on it as Diaghilev's Russian Ballet. It existed for only twenty years - from 1909 to 1929 - but during these two decades managed to turn ballet into a living, modern art... Throughout its existence, this company was the center of attraction of bright, talented, exceptional personalities. But one figure towered above all others - Sergei Diaghilev, an outstanding impresario who led the Russian Ballet from its earliest days until his death in 1929. He was a man of iron will and extremely fine taste, who possessed encyclopedic knowledge and passionate curiosity - a kind of Napoleon of the arts - and at the same time a personality on the scale of the Renaissance".
