- Description
- Collection of articles about the history of Victorian fashion in Britain of the nineteenth century. This book brings together sources that trace the evolution of dress and the social, cultural and political discourses that influenced Victorian fashion. Each section presents a sample of writings and images connected to one of the seven themes: fashion theory, dress reform, crinolines and corsets, men's dress, occasional dress, production and industry and international influences. It combines primary texts by authors such as Oscar Wilde and Sarah Stickney Ellis and illustrations with explanatory notes to offer an overview of the period for both students and researchers. Also analysed are interdisciplinary fields including gender studies and literature. .

- Description
- This book re-evaluates and extends understandings about how work was conceived and what it could entail for women in the premodern period in Europe from c. 1100 to c. 1800. It does this by building on the growth in literature on women’s working experiences, and by adopting new interpretive approaches that expand received assumptions about what constituted 'work' for women.
