This book details information on nearly 350 American Punch players. It explores the significance of the 19th-century American show as a reflection of the attitudes and conditions of its time and place. The century was a time of changing feelings about what it means to be human. There was an intensified awareness of the racial, cultural, social and economical diversity of the human species, and a corresponding concern for the experience of human oneness. The American Punch and Judy show was one of the manifestations of these conditions.Language: EnglishCountry/Region of Manufacture: USItem Weight: 524gAuthor: Ryan HowardGenre: Music Dance & TheatreISBN-10: 0786472707Item Height: 254mmItem Length: 178mmItem Width: 14mmRelease Year: 2013 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
