Ballet developed as an independent art form during the early twentieth century.

Question

BlackTom AI · Accepted Answer

The statement asserts that ballet developed as an independent art form during the early twentieth century.
In reality, ballet has much older roots: it emerged in the courts of Renaissance Italy and France, was codified and developed significantly in the 17th through 19th centuries (notably in France and Russia), and established a long-standing classical tradition before the 20th century.
The early twentieth century is more accurately associated with the rise of modern dance and contemporary approaches that challenged classical ballet, rather than ballet itself becoming an independent art form at that time.
Therefore, the claim is inaccurate because the major development and independence of ballet as a formal art tradition occurred well before the twentieth century, with substantial growth occurring in the 17th–19th centuries.
