Beschreibung

The world expositions staged in the United States in the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries were designed to showcase world cultures in peaceful competition and cooperation. But as Astrid Böger shows in Envisioning the Notion, at the same time the fairs played an important role in the growth of nationalism and American exceptionalism, subtly recasting world history from a U.S. American point of view and thus laying the groundwork for the United States? dominion in the twentieth century. Discussing the fairs? sites, architecture, scientific and cultural displays, as well as contemporaneous literary works that dealt with the fairs, Böger paints a richly contextualized portrait of these influential spectacles of national culture
