Description: Medieval Fabrications : Dress, Textiles, Clothwork, and Other Cultural Imaginings, Hardcover by Burns, E. Jane (EDT), ISBN 1403961867, ISBN-13 9781403961860, Brand New, Free shipping in the US The varied cultural functions of dress, textiles, and clothwork are used in this collection of essays to examine long-standing assumptions about the Middle Ages. At one end of the spectrum, questions of dress call up feminist theoretical investigations into the body and subjectivity, while broadening those inquiries to include theories of masculinity and queer identity as well. At the other extreme, the production and distribution of textiles carries us into the domain of economic history and the study of material commodities, trade and cultural patterns of exchange within western Europe and between east and west. Contributors to this volume represent a broad array of disciplines currently involved in rethinking medieval culture in terms of the material world.
