DOWNLOAD EBOOK →"The Dancing Queen of Palm Springs" is at its heart a coming of age story although not in the typical genre. Yes there are stories about my childhood and yes, there are also many more stories from my life as I grew and progressed. But "Dancing Queen" is really about how I came fully into the persona I now am. Like all coming of age tales it encapsulates the past as a precursor to the present but "Dancing Queen" expresses the joy, contentment, and fulfillment that I have come to enjoy as a fully formed, adult woman. I offer it as both a cautionary tale and a joyous gift to all of my Palm Springs Family and to anyone else who has ever struggled to become their authentic self.

DOWNLOAD EBOOK →Under glittering lights in the Louvre palace, the French court ballets danced by Queen Marie de M?dicis prior to Henri IV's assassination in 1610 attracted thousands of spectators ranging from pickpockets to ambassadors from across Europe. Drawing on newly discovered primary sources as well as theories and methodologies derived from literary studies, political history, musicology, dance studies, and women's and gender studies, Dancing Queen traces how Marie's ballets authorized her incipient political authority through innovative verbal and visual imagery, avant-garde musical developments, and ceremonial arrangements of objects and bodies in space. Making use of women's "semi-official" status as political agents, Marie's ballets also manipulated the subtle social and cultural codes of international courtly society in order to more deftly navigate rivalries and alliances both at home and abroad. At times the queen's productions could challenge Henri IV's immediate interests, contesting the influence enjoyed by his mistresses or giving space to implied critiques of official foreign policy, for example. Such defenses of Marie's own position, though, took shape as part of a larger governmental program designed to promote the French consort queen's political authority not in its own right but as a means of maintaining power for the new Bourbon monarchy in the event of Henri IV's untimely death.
