Burlesque is a book written by Richard H. Stoddard, which is a comprehensive study of the history and evolution of burlesque. The book covers the origins of burlesque in ancient Greece and Rome, its development in Europe, and its eventual arrival in America. The author examines the various forms of burlesque, including musicals, vaudeville, and striptease, and explores how it has reflected and influenced society's attitudes towards sexuality and gender roles. Stoddard also delves into the lives of famous burlesque performers, such as Gypsy Rose Lee and Sally Rand, and provides insights into the creative process behind the shows. With its detailed analysis and engaging storytelling, Burlesque is a fascinating read for anyone interested in the history of entertainment and popular culture.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
