Edgar Degas
by Patrick BadeDegas was closest to Renoir in the impressionists circle. He started his apprenticeship in 1853 at the studio of Louis-Ernest Barrias and, beginning in 1854, studied under Louis Lamothe, who revered Ingres above all others and transmitted his adoration for this master to Edgar Degas. Starting in 1854, Degas frequently traveled to Italy where he copied from the Old Masters. His drawings and sketches already revealed very clear preferences, especially in Raphael, Leonardo da Vinci, Michelangelo, and Mantegna. After his first compositions, which depicted horses, Degas made yet another discovery. His first painting devoted solely to the ballet was Le Foyer de la danse à lOpéra de la rue Le
Peletier (The Dancing Anteroom at the Opera on Rue Le Peletier, Musée dOrsay, Paris). In a carefully constructed composition, with groups of fi gures balancing one another to the left and the right, each ballet dancer is involved in her own activity, each moving in a separate manner from the others. Extended observation and an immense number of sketches were essential to executing such a task. Ballet would remain his passion until the end.

BHOLANATH BHATTACHARYA
Esoteric Cults of Consort Worship in BengalFrom the very days of inception woman breeds a sense of fear as well as devotion in the minds of man due to her mysterious relation with the process of creation. Worshiping woman as a symbol of power of creation and fertility also started from then. At the preliminary stage woman was worshiped as mother. Later, as man also found himself as a contributor in this process of creation, woman was worshiped as companion. The author gives a description of these confined cults which are practiced in different parts of Bengal in India for a long time. Before thirty five years this paper drew the attention of Mircea Eliade, Dineshchandra Sarkar, Atul Sur, Mazharul Islam and Mikhail Nalizevski when it was published for the first time in the ‘Folklore’ journal.
