Pinocchio's Progeny

Puppets, Marionettes, Automatons, and Robots in Modernist and Avant-Gard Drama

By Harold B. Segel

Scholarly work with broad overview of use of puppets in European drama from 1890 to 1935. It is Segel's view that "philosophical, social, and artistic proclivities of the modernist movement converged in the discovery of an exciting new relevance in the puppet and marionette."
