Bratton, Jacky (Royal Holloway, University of London)
The Victorian Clown, first published in 2006, is a study of the life and work of two professional Victorian clowns. Their previously unpublished manuscripts - James Frowde's account of his young life with the famous Henglers' circus in the 1850s and Thomas Lawrence's 1871 gag book - offer unique access to the roots of popular entertainment.
