Art and Society in a Highland Maya Community: The Altarpiece of Santiago Atitlán
This book is more an academic book than something for a popular audience. I'm super interested in how the Enlightenment shaped entertainment, and here it is: automata, magic, hoaxes, trompe l'oeil art. There's a lot to think about regarding what makes being knowingly deceived fun. The section about Barnum's grossly racist antebellum "missing link" exhibition literally made me sick to my stomach to read. It made me mad that a glossy movie about Barnum was such a big hit when history shows horrific, horrific things he did.
