  • Josiah Benjamin Garrison, Living Skeleton West Union, West Virginia 1858 - 1884
    Josiah Benjamin Garrison, Living Skeleton West Union, West Virginia 1858 - 1884 At one time or another, all of us have wanted to run away and join the circus. Josiah Benjamin Garrison did just that. In 1883 Josiah toured with the most prestigious and famous circus of all time. He was then en- gaged by two dime museums, which were all the rage in the last years of the 19th century. His problem- atic marriage in Philadelphia to Bertha Clear made the newspapers from coast to coast. JB Garrison, as he was known in the circus world, left behind a biography which ended up in the stacks of the Harvard Li- brary. All this packed into the last year of his short life. He died in August 1884, age 25. Early Life of JB Garrison Josiah Benjamin Garrison was born on December 5, 1858, last of the nine children of Aaron and Martha Stout Garrison. His father was a tailor. Josiah grew up in West Union, West Virginia. According to his biography, Josiah was a puny baby, first cradled in a cotton-lined cigar box, then vacillating between life and death until he was four. For the next ten years he was a normal, robust boy, but at 14 his weight started to decline from 135 pounds to about 80 pounds in a two year span. Consulta- tions with doctors revealed no certain cause. Josiah’s father tried to teach him the tailor trade, but that did not work out. Then his father started him in a candy business, but that did not pan out either.

  • Freaks in Late Nineteenth-Century British Media and Medicine
    Freaks in Late Nineteenth-Century British Media and Medicine Submitted by Fiona Yvette Pettit to the University of Exeter as a thesis for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in English in February 2012 This thesis is available for Library use on the understanding that it is copyright material and that no quotation from the thesis may be published without proper acknowledgement. I certify that all material in this thesis which is not my own work has been identified and that no material has previously been submitted and approved for the award of a degree by this or any other University. Signature: ………………………………………………………….. 1 Abstract This thesis explores the prevalence of freaks in late nineteenth-century British culture through popular and medical print media. Through their consistent representation and exhibition, freaks became a part of mainstream culture. Due to their regular reproduction, freak narratives and images often perpetuated the lives of freaks long after their deaths; thereby creating freak legacies. This thesis employs the theoretical concept of generativity, drawn from John Kotre’s work, to investigate the role of freaks and freak legacies in late nineteenth-century culture. Generativity is the process which allows the continuation of lives after death, through the creation and perpetuation of legacy. Through their regular representation and reproduction in print, I argue, freaks were generative in that they contributed to the perpetuation of their own and others’ legacies in late nineteenth-century Britain. In particular, the generativity of freak narratives for medical and popular press readerships is considered to demonstrate the multiple ways freak representations were constructed to suit broad and diverse audiences.

  • How PT Barnum Transformed the Circus in the Gilded
    A Gilded Age, A Gilded Man: How P.T. Barnum Transformed the Circus in the Gilded Age Erin Michelle Weber The Gilded Age was a period of immense change. America redefined leisure as new commodities and amusements arose. One such amusement, the circus, became an important part of life, not just as a way to pass the time, but as a strong social and economic phenomenon. There was money to be made for those who could best figure out how draw people together. Phineas Taylor Barnum was the driving force behind the greatness of the circus in the latter half of the nineteenth century. He was truly the first to bring together many elements of various performances, including minstrel shows, menageries, vaudeville, and his signature element, the freak show. Barnum carefully constructed his image around these grand shows; he was fully aware of what his audiences wanted to see, and he would give it to them no matter the ethical implications. Barnum was equally able to draw audiences to his show and to his flashy, dramatic character. Newspaper accounts and Barnum’s memoir provided insight to what his professional and personal lives looked like, and how he and America merged the two. Through keen advertising, business savvy, and showmanship, P.T. Barnum transformed himself into a circus phenomenon that paralleled the spectacle of the Gilded Age. The Gilded Age brought new and exciting change to America in all aspects of life. Business, technology, and industrialization evolved rapidly, but perhaps no change was more important to the hearts of the American people than the pursuit of leisure.
