Excerpt from Barnum's Parnassus: Being Confidential Disclosures of the Prize Committee on the Jenny Lind Song The Prize Committee expects to be aspersed and anticipates nothing but calumny. Publics as well as Republics are ungrateful. Poets especially are a most "irritabile genus." A great author has very profoundly remarked, that "Great wits arc sure to madness near allied," and the Prize Committee expects that a great many American Poets will be very mad indeed when they hear the decision of the Committee. No allowances will he made (the allowances of champagne and cigars by Mr. Barnum are not referred to) for the embarrassing position of the Prize Committee. No regard will be had by the disappointed competitors and their dear friends to the peculiar delicacy of the task of the Prize Committee. The Prize Committee felt this the moment it assumed its responsible duties. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

E Pluribus Barnum written by Bluford Adams and has been published by U of Minnesota Press this book supported file pdf, txt, epub, kindle and other format this book has been release on 1997 with Social Science categories.
The first book to consider the career of P. T. Barnum from a cultural studies perspective. Phineas Taylor Barnum lived from 1810 until 1891, and in the eighty-one years of his life he created show business as we know it. In E Pluribus Barnum, Bluford Adams investigates the influence Barnum had on American popular culture of the nineteenth century, and expands our understanding of the ways he continues to influence us today. Beginning with a discussion of Barnum's early shows, Adams demonstrates the dynamic interplay between Barnum's increasingly "respectable" aspirations for his entertainments and his active cultivation of middle-class sensibilities in his audiences. In his discussion of the 1850-51 concert tour of the "Swedish Nightingale" Jenny Lind, Adams explores the role played by women's rights and class issues in Barnum's management of these concerts. Barnum's American Museum and the "moral dramas" presented in its theater are examined, as well as the later circuses. Adams relates the rise of Barnum to the emergence of a new U.S. society, one riven by conflicts over slavery, feminism, immigration, and capitalism, and considers his career as a crucial moment in the on-going struggle over the politics of U.S. commercial entertainments.
