{"product_id":"meet-me-at-the-fair-laura-hollengreen-9781716905735","title":"Meet Me at the Fair: A World's Fair Reader","description":"Together with the Olympics, world's fairs are one of the few regular international events of sufficient scale to showcase a spectrum of sights, wonders, learning opportunities, technological advances, and new (or renewed) urban districts, and to present them all to a mass audience. Meet Me at the Fair: A World's Fair Reader breaks new ground in scholarship on world's fairs by incorporating a number of short new texts that investigate world's fairs in their multiple aspects: political, urban\/architectural, anthropological\/ sociological, technological, commercial, popular, and representational. In taking the measure of both the material artifacts and the larger cultural production of world's fairs, the volume presents its own phantasmagoria of disciplinary perspectives, historical periods, geographical locales, media, and messages, mirroring the microcosmic form of the world's fair itself.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Laura Hollengreen\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1716905737\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781716905735\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Lulu.com\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/31\/2025\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 558\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 2.91lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 11.69h x 8.27w x 1.13d","brand":"Laura Hollengreen","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48801024049407,"sku":"9781716905735","price":49.13,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/meet-me-at-the-fair-laura-hollengreen-9781716905735","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
