Book excerpt: From the Author's INTRODUCTION: THE value of suggestion is nowhere so clearly demonstrated as in the Magic Art, and I have yet to see the book devoted to this subject that has not imparted at least a few good ideas well worth retaining. I therefore present this little series of original experiments to the lovers of Magic, not so much for its value as a collection of up-to-date tricks, separate and distinct from each other, but rather as a series of useful hints and ideas, from which I trust both the amateur and professional may derive much food for thought. I have not considered it necessary, in a book of this size, to devote any space to the definition of terms and phrases commonly used in conjuring circles, for the tricks herein described would be of little practical use to one unfamiliar with the rudiments of Magic, or current literature on the subject, while to the advanced conjurer such information would only be superfluous. In the near future I hope to publish a larger book devoted exclusively to the beginner — a sort of A B C of Magic, I might say, brought right up to date, in which I shall endeavor to confer upon the neophyte the mysteries of modern Magic in a clear, concise manner, and lead him step by step to the higher class of conjuring.

The penultimate chapter describes large stage illusions, and the final chapter contains advice on routining a magic show, as well as more advice on staging.
Download or read book Conjuring Asia written by Chris Goto-Jones and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2016-07-04 with total page 339 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The promise of magic has always commanded the human imagination, but the story of industrial modernity is usually seen as a process of disenchantment. Drawing on the writings and performances of the so-called 'Golden Age Magicians' from the turn of the twentieth century, Chris Goto-Jones unveils the ways in which European and North American encounters with (and representations of) Asia - the fabled Mystic East - worked to re-enchant experiences of the modern world. Beginning with a reconceptualization of the meaning of 'modern magic' itself - moving beyond conventional categories of 'real' and 'fake' magic - Goto-Jones' acclaimed book guides us on a magical mystery tour around India, China, and Japan, showing us levitations and decapitations, magic duels and bullet catches, goldfish bowls and paper butterflies. In the end, this mesmerizing book reveals Orientalism as a kind of magic in itself, casting a spell over Western culture that leaves it transformed, even today.

Book excerpt: Notions of magic and healing have been changing over past years and are now understood as reflecting local ideas of power and agency, as well as structures of self, subjectivity and affect. This study focuses on contemporary urban Russia and, through exploring social conditions, conveys the experience of living that makes magic logical. By following people's own interpretations of the work of magic, the author succeeds in unraveling the logic of local practice and local understanding of affliction, commonly used to diagnose the experiences of illness and misfortune.
