Reviews
"A brilliant but also sobering analysis of the images produced by and around a 'man-made ecological disaster.' It is also an intensely personal book."--Tom Stammers, APOLLO " Myth and Menagerie will interest a specialized audience--and, of course, any serious lion lover--that is ardently invested in scholarship about colonial powers developing their reputations through capture of wild creatures native to the colonized. Others, of course, can enjoy the book's fabulous color reproductions of paintings, prints, sculptures, and sketches of the big cats."--Nageen Shaikh, Hyperallergic "Extraordinarily well-researched and a deeply engrossing read, Myth and Menagerie moves across textual and visual artifacts with great fluency, bringing readers as close as possible to the once-living lions who inspired the book."--Natania Meeker, University of Southern California "Hornstein accords lions the dignity, empathy, and respect that they were habitually denied in the period and have rarely received in historical scholarship. Myth and Menagerie is an achievement for its originality and the depth with which it examines lion-human interactions."--David O'Brien, author of Exiled in Modernity: Delacroix, Civilization, and Barbarism, "A brilliant but also sobering analysis of the images produced by and around a 'man-made ecological disaster.'
