From a historical perspective, the term "incognito" refers to a deliberate, goal-oriented, and time-limited change of identity accomplished by means of ceremonial techniques specifically directed at circumventing problems of ceremony. For the first time, Volker Barth portrays the fascinating history of the incognito ritual and its diverse literary depictions from its earliest manifestations to the present time.
