Abstract
The acceleration of French influence on Spanish culture that took place under the reign of Felipe V inaugurated a new era in Spanish society. This question is addressed from different perspectives by French and Spanish researchers and it reflects a complex phenomenon in which multiple aspects have to be analyzed. Dance, an art form fully integrated into the court structure, was no stranger to this influence. But the preponderance of French style was forced to live with the strong presence of Italian culture and the consequent reaction of native Spaniards. Nevertheless, the «French dance» was practiced assiduously and it was the main reference alluded by all Spanish Masters without exception throughout the century.
