It combines archival material, contemporary examples of fairs, and a sustained theoretical engagement with influential philosophies of surface, including recent work by Avrum Stroll and Andrew Benjamin, as well as the nineteenth century author Gottfried Semper. Semper's work on the origin of architectural enclosure -formed from woven mats and carpets- anticipates the surface and material history of the showfront. Initial chapters introduce these philosophies, the evolution of showfronts, and the ways in which individual fairground rides and attractions are arranged to form an enclosing boundary for the whole fair. Later chapters focus on issues of spectacle and illusion, vast 'interior' spaces, atmosphere, crowds and surface effects. Informed by a wide range of work from other design and cultural studies, the book will be of interest to readers in these areas, as well as architecture and those curious about the fairground. 606 $aHuman geography 606 $aArchitecture 606 $aCities and towns$xHistory 606 $aEthnology 606 $aCulture 606 $aHuman Geography 606 $aArchitecture 606 $aUrban History 606 $aRegional Cultural Studies 615 0$aHuman geography. 615 0$aArchitecture. 615 0$aCities and towns$xHistory. 615 0$aEthnology. 615 0$aCulture. 615 14$aHuman Geography. 615 24$aArchitecture. 615 24$aUrban History. 615 24$aRegional Cultural Studies. 676 $a725.76 700 $aWalker$b Stephen$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0114022 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910300588403321 996 $aThe Fair-Line and the Good Frontage$91928005 997 $aUNINA
