As the pioneers of special effects throughout history, magicians have never ceased to mystify us by making the impossible possible. This book celebrates more than 500 years of the stunning visual culture of the world’s greatest magicians.

Combining sensational images with incisive text, the book explores the evolution of the magicians’ craft, from medieval street performers to the brilliant stage magicians who gave rise to cinematic special effects; from the 19th century’s golden age of magic to groundbreaking daredevils like Houdini and the early 20th century’s vaudevillians.

Mike Caveney. Magic 1400s-1950s XL
The world’s greatest magicians from the Middle Ages to the 1950sМагия очаровывала человечество на протяжении тысячелетий, вызывая ужас, смех, шок и изумление. Когда-то преследуемые как еретики и колдуны, маги всегда были проводниками в параллельную вселенную с безграничными возможностями — будь то вызов духов, чтение мыслей или переворачивание законов природы с помощью ловкости рук. Задолго до научной фантастики, виртуальной реальности, видеоигр и Интернета магия была самым могущественным фэнтезийным миром, который когда-либо знал человек. Как пионеры спецэффектов на протяжении всей истории, фокусники никогда не переставали озадачивать нас, делая невозможное возможным.Эта книга посвящена более чем 500-летию потрясающей визуальной культуры величайших фокусников мира. Представляя более 750 редко встречающихся старинных плакатов, фотографий, рекламных листовок и гравюр, а также картин Иеронима Босха и Брейгеля, среди прочих, Magic прослеживает историю магии как исполнительского искусства с 1400-х по 1950-е годы. Сочетая сенсационные изображения с проницательным текстом, книга исследует эволюцию мастерства фокусников, от средневековых уличных артистов до блестящих сценических фокусников, породивших кинематографические спецэффекты; от золотого века магии 19-го века до новаторских смельчаков, таких как Гудини, и водевилей начала 20-го векаMagic has enchanted humankind for millennia, evoking terror, laughter, shock, and amazement.

Parry H. G. A Declaration of the Rights of Magicians
A sweeping tale of revolution and wonder in a world not quite like our own, A Declaration of the Rights of Magicians is a genre-defying story of magic, war, and the struggle for freedom. It is the Age of Enlightenment -- of new and magical political movements, from the necromancer Robespierre calling for revolution in France to the weather mage Toussaint L'Ouverture leading the slaves of Haiti in their fight for freedom, to the bold new Prime Minister William Pitt weighing the legalization of magic amongst commoners in Britain and abolition throughout its colonies overseas. But amidst all of the upheaval of the enlightened world, there is an unknown force inciting all of human civilisation into violent conflict. And it will require the combined efforts of revolutionaries, magicians, and abolitionists to unmask this hidden enemy before the whole world falls to chaos.
