Publication.
|
|
The
collection of information on British circus, whether
books, articles, cuttings, handbills, programmes,
posters and other library and archive items is
but an indulgence unless it is made available
and used to tell a story. The 'story' may be anything
from an article in a popular magazine to a Ph.D.
thesis. The aim of publication should be to inspire
interest and inform. An appreciation of British
circus, in its historical and present forms, is
more important than ever in the present day.

Selections
of records in the DBCB have been published in book
form as 'Victorian Arena; the Performers', volumes
1 and 2 (Lingdales Press, Formby, 1995 and 2000 respectively).
In addition, the database of information has formed
the starting point for a series of studies resulting
in the publication of articles in various journals
and magazines.
