Produktbeschreibung

"Despite the veritable explosion of historical work on exhibitionary culture in the last decade, relatively little attention has been paid to the role of women in organizing the transnational spectacles that dominated the culturescapes of imperial modernity . . . . "Transforming the Public Sphere" . . . offers an important corrective to this oversight."--Antoinette Burton, from the introduction
