Ethan Stiefel, the greatest American-born male ballet dancer since Edward Villella, has appeared in a dazzlingly wide range of works since joining American Ballet Theatre in 1997--Le Corsaire, Billy the Kid, Balanchine's Apollo, Twyla Tharp's Push Comes to Shove--performing them all with a casual virtuosity and unmannered grace worthy of Fred Astaire. On Oct. 26, Stiefel adds a new role to his repertoire: the male lead in Dim Lustre, Antony Tudor's rarely seen, piercingly Proustian tale of remembered love.

If actions like this are not condemned outright by people and especially the media, they will continue to happen. EDWARD STAFFORD Dallas...
Study nature, not books!" advised the great 19th century naturalist Louis Agassiz. As a boy growing up in Alabama and northern Florida, Edward Osborne Wilson did both. By day he scoured fields, forests and streams. At night he pored over books and magazines. It was an article in National Geographic ("Stalking Ants, Savage and Civilized") that launched, at the ripe age of 9, one of the great scientific careers of the late 20th century, a career that began in entomology--with a particular passion for ants--but that has since reinvented itself with remarkable frequency, expanding its scope to encompass...
