| Zusammenfassung: | "Stunts of Late Nineteenth Century New York: Aestheticised Precarity, Endangered Liveness examines the emergence of stunts in the media, politics, sport, and art of New York at the turn of the twentieth century. This book investigates stunts in sport, media, and politics, demonstrating how these risky performances tapped into anxieties and fantasies concerning work, freedom, gendered/raced/classed bodies, and the commodification of human life. Its case studies examine bridge jumping, extreme walking contests, stunt journalists such as Nellie Bly, and cycling feats including Annie Londonderry's round-the-world venture. Supported by extensive archival research and performance studies theorisations of precarity, liveness, and surrogation, Smith theorises an under-examined form which is still prevalent in art, politics, and commerce, to show what stunts reveal about value, risk and human life. Suitable for scholars and practitioners across a range of subjects, from performance studies, to gender studies, to media studies, Stunts of Late Nineteenth-Century New York explores how stunts turned everyday precarity into a spectacle"-- |
