With powerful patrons in Tammany Hall and a growing customer base, nightclubs flourished in spite of the efforts of civic-minded reformers and federal Prohibition enforcement. This encounter between clubs and government-generated scandals, reform crusades, and regulations helped to redefine the image and reality of urban life in the United States. Ultimately, it took the Great Depression to cool Manhattan's Jazz Age nightclubs, forcing them to adapt and relocate, but not before they left their mark on the future of American leisure. Nightclub City explores the cultural significance of New York City's nightlife between the wars, from Texas Guinan's notorious 300 Club to Billy Rose's nostalgic Diamond Horseshoe. Whether in Harlem, Midtown, or Greenwich Village, raucous nightclub activity tested early twentieth-century social boundaries. Anglo-Saxon novelty seekers, Eastern European impresarios, and African American performers crossed ethnic lines while provocative comediennes and scantily clad chorus dancers challenged and reshaped notions of femininity. These havens of liberated sexuality, as well as prostitution and illicit liquor consumption, allowed their denizens to explore their fantasies and fears of change. The reactions of cultural critics, federal investigators, and reformers such as Fiorello La Guardia exemplify the tension between leisure and order. Peretti's research delves into the symbiotic relationships among urban politicians, social reformers, and the business of vice. Illustrated with archival photographs of the clubs and the characters who frequented them, Nightclub City is a dark and dazzling study of New York's bygone nightlife. 606 $aNightclubs$zNew York (State)$zNew York$xHistory$y20th century 606 $aAmusements$zNew York (State)$zNew York$xHistory$y20th century 607 $aManhattan (New York, N.Y.)$xSocial life and customs$y20th century 607 $aManhattan (New York, N.Y.)$xPolitics and government$y20th century 610 $aAmerican History. 610 $aAmerican Studies. 615 0$aNightclubs$xHistory 615 0$aAmusements$xHistory 676 $a974.71042 700 $aPeretti$b Burton W$g(Burton William),$f1961-$01480483 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910787526903321 996 $aNightclub city$93697156 997 $aUNINA LEADER 01283nam0 22002891i 450 001 UON00322297 005 20231205104145.460 010 $a87-911212-0-5 100 $a20090325d2007 |0itac50 ba 101 $aeng 102 $aDK 105 $a|||| ||||| 200 1 $aConflict and the emerging roles of NGOs in peace-building in Uganda$fStig Marker Hansen 210 $aCopenhagen$cCentre of African Studies, University of Copenjagen$d2007 215 $a23 p.$d21 cm 410 1$1001UON00067719$12001 $aOccasional paper$fCentre of African Studies, University of Copenhagen 606 $aUGANDA$xPolitica e governo$3UONC025282$2FI 620 $aDK$dCopenhagen$3UONL000180 676 $a320.96761$cPOLITICA E GOVERNO DELL'UGANDA$v21 700 1$aHANSEN$bStig Marker$3UONV183940$0699305 712 $aCentre of African Studies, University of Copenhagen$3UONV259105$4650 801 $aIT$bSOL$c20240220$gRICA 899 $aSIBA - SISTEMA BIBLIOTECARIO DI ATENEO$2UONSI 912 $aUON00322297 950 $aSIBA - SISTEMA BIBLIOTECARIO DI ATENEO$dSI AOR ST 560 $eSI AA 29580 5 560 996 $aConflict and the emerging roles of NGOs in peace-building in Uganda$91370794 997 $aUNIOR LEADER 01168nam0 22002771i 450 001 UON00226989 005 20231205103441.441 010 $a88-14-03977-1 100 $a20030730d1993 |0itac50 ba 101 $aita 102 $aIT 105 $a|||| ||||| 200 1 $aˆI ‰ "Sogni antichi" di Giuseppe Capograssi$eantologia dai "Pensieri a Giulia" Sulmona e l'Abruzzo$fGiuseppe Papponetti 210 $aMilano$cA.
