Describe the central idea of paragraphs 9 and 10. Identify at least two details the author used to develop that central idea.
9. Many of Martha's dances explored emotional and psychological themes. One example is her solo
piece “Lamentation. In this dance, a grieving figure sits alone on a bench and moves to a mournful piano
score. The dancer wears a tube of stretchy, purple fabric. Only the dancer's head, hands, and feet show. The
movements of the dancer's body within the fabric create a sort of moving sculpture. The dancer represents the
raw emotions of grief.
10. Martha was also interested in exploring social issues and political themes. Her dance "Deep Song"
was a statement about the Civil War in Spain, and “Chronicle” looked at the menace of fascism and war
in Europe. This second dance was created the same year Martha had turned down an invitation to the
1936 Olympic Games being held in Germany. Both the dance itself and her refusal to attend the games
expressed Martha's integrity and desire to highlight important political issues.
