The Anthropology of Dress and Fashion: A Reader de Brent Luvaas

The Anthropology of Dress and Fashion: A Reader

Editat de Brent Luvaas, Joanne B. Eicher
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 6 mar 2019
Anthropologists have examined how diverse human populations modify and dress their bodies since the earliest days of the discipline. The Anthropology of Dress and Fashion: A Reader is the first authoritative anthology of the seminal writings of anthropologists studying clothing and fashion. From classic ethnographies of dress to cutting-edge contemporary research tracing the global circulation of clothing today, this comprehensive volume maps out this vibrant field of study's shifting preoccupations, theoretical innovations, and traditional and experimental methodologies. Comprised of over 40 curated extracts from the work of leading international scholars from Jonathan Friedman to Katherine Frank, the reader is divided into themed sections, each with an introduction and guide to further reading. With each extract introduced and contextualised, the reader will be an essential resource for students and scholars of fashion studies, social and cultural anthropology, material culture, sociology and related fields.

Recenzii

A major and seminal contribution to highlighting the research of fashion and dress anthropology that is not regarded as a formal subject of its own.
The contributions are diverse and interesting, while the sections are comprehensive and relevant ... The reader makes an excellent resource for both those teaching and those learning about anthropology's contribution to the study of dress and fashion.
