Governance Of Cons Passion - A History Of Sumptuary Law

de A. Hunt

86,11€ + 10% EM CARTÃO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 This book explores the sumptuary laws that regulated conspicuous consumption in respect to dress, ornaments, and food that were widespread in late medieval and early modern Europe. It argues that sumptuary laws were attempts to stabilize social recognizability in the urban `world of strangers'' and in the governance of cities. The gendered character of sumptuary laws are viewed as components of ''gender wars''. These laws are explored as projects directed at the reform of popular culture and in their links to the governance of vagrancy and of popular recreation. This study challenges the view that the sumptuary actually died and develops an argument that in the modern world the regulation of consumption persists, but becomes dispersed throughout a range of both public and private forms of governance. The conclusions stresses the persistence of projects of governance of personal appearance and of private consumption.

Case Of Peter Pan - Or The Impossibility Of Children''S Fiction

de Jacqueline Rose

23,84€ + 10% EM CARTÃO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 What does Peter Pan have to say about our conception of childhood, about how we understand the child''s and our own relationship to language, sexuality, and death? What can Peter Pan tell us about the theatrical, literary, and educational institutions of which it is a part? In a new preface written especially for this edition, Rose accounts for some of the new developments since her book''s first publication in 1984. She discusses some of Peter Pan''s new guises and their implications. From Spielberg''s Hook, to the lesbian production of the play at the London Drill Hall in 1991, to debates in the English House of Lords, to a newly claimed status as the icon of a transvestite culture, Peter Pan continues to demonstrate its bizarre renewability as a cultural fetish of our times.
