Carl Hagenbeck’s Empire of Entertainments

By Eric Ames, University of Washington

"Combining meticulous archival research with sophisticated theoretical approaches, Eric Ames provides an in-depth case study that will impact a broad spectrum of disciplines, including Cultural Studies, Anthropology, Performance Studies, and Film Studies." - Gerd Gemunden, Dartmouth College

"A splendid study of one of the greatest showmen in the history of zoos and circuses. Impeccably researched, this book analyzes Hagenbeck's innovations in creating live animal environments and performances and places them within a larger history of themed displays and virtual reality. Beautifully written, this book is an important addition to a growing literature on the history of exhibition." -Barbara Kirshenblatt-Gimblett, author of Destination Culture: Tourism, Museums, and Display
