The theater of electricitytechnology and spectacle in the late 19th century /[electronic resource] :by Ulf Otto. - Stuttgart :J.B. Metzler :2023. - xxvii, 314 p. :ill., digital ;24 cm.

Introduction -- 1. Incandescence: electrical installations and their hygienic legitimation -- 2. Oxidation: material culture and industrialized theater -- 3. Regulators: control techniques and electroaesthetic expectations of salvation -- 4. Fabrication: atmospheres and their technical foundations -- 5. Attractions: Electricity exhibitions and their staging -- 6. Communication: electric media and telegraphic world theater -- 7. Industrial poetry: danced progress and civilization as kaleidoscope -- 8. Luminaries: figurations of technology and desirable projections -- 10. Force fields: Science theater and the spaces of electrical engineering -- 11. Conclusion: aesthetics of electricity -- Bibliography -- List of figures.

Since the 1880s, electrical energies started circulating in European theaters, generated from fossil fuels in urban power plants. A mysterious force, which was still traded as romantic life force by some and for others had already come to stand in for progress, entered performance venues. Engineering knowledge, control techniques and supply chains changed fundamentally how theater was made and thought of. The mechanical image machine from Renaissance and Baroque times was transformed into a thermodynamic engine. Modern theater turned out to be electrified theater. - Retracing what happened backstage before the Avantgarde took to the front stage, this book proposes to write the genealogy of theaters modernity as a cultural history of theater technology. This book is a translation of the original German 1st edition Das Theater der Elektrizität. Technologie und Spektakel im ausgehenden 19. Jahrhundert by Ulf Otto, published by J.B.Metzler, part of Springer Nature in 2020. The translation was done with the help of artificial intelligence (machine translation by the service DeepL.com) The author has subsequently revised the text further in an endeavour to refine the work stylistically.
