Text Any textual data included in the document The Danse Macabre, or Totentanz (“dance of death” in English) marked an important milestone in the art of the Middle Ages. Ghastly figures, often skeletons with tattered hair and clothing, dance and converse with both ordinary and extraordinary people of the age. The dance’s origins as an artistic statement remain unclear. Many scholars ascribe the Black Death and other disasters of the 14th century as the foundation of fascination with the macabre, while others suggest a civilization-wide focus on moral penitence and guilt culture as the source. Despite its peak being in the late Middle Ages, the Danse Macabre endures in 19th and 20th century classical music, and the 1929 Silly Symphony animation “Skeleton Dance” by Ub Iwerks and Walt Disney The Skeleton Dance.
