Situates the dance craze ‘Salomania’ as a turning point in the history of the modern business of erotic dance. Framing Salomania with reference to imperial ideologies of motherhood and race, the book works toward better understanding the increasing value of the display of the undressed female body in the 19th and early 20th centuries.
