Vanishing Women: Magic, Film, and Feminism
Karen Redrobe
With the help of mirrors, trap doors, elevators, photographs, and film, women vanish and return in spectacular ways throughout the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. This book tracks the proliferation of this figure, the vanishing woman, from her genesis in Victorian stage magic through her development in conjunction with photography and film.
