Summary of Filmic Representations of Freaks and Special Features in Tod Browning s freaks by Janine Bergmeir PDF

Seminar paper from the year 2016 in the subject English Language and Literature Studies - Literature, grade: 2,3, University of Tubingen (Anglistik), course: Freak Culture - The Spectacle and the Gaze, language: English, abstract: Since the early beginning of mankind there have always been people who differed from the great majority. They presented various features which separated and isolated them from the rest of mankind; from the "normal people."

The filmic representation analysis will also be focused on the representation of the conflicting cultural views on freaks and th
