Exciting the Body: Sensoriality and Capitalism in Modern Culture
Sonsoles Hernandez Barbosa
This book uncovers how during the origins of modernity in the nineteenth century the senses were mobilised to sell more, both through the popularisation of objects aimed at the senses (such as panoramas, optical boxes, automatons, music boxes and pianolas), and also through marketing mechanisms (for example, advertising and window dressing).
