Textiles of Central and South America

2006 y.
Publisher: —
Description: A handsomely illustrated survey of the textile traditions and techniques of Central and South America, featuring 200 color photos. The rich textile traditions of Central and South America stem from a society whose culture is firmly rooted in the weaving of cloth.

Linda Parry
Textiles of the Arts and Crafts Movement

2005 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Back in print with new color plates: the comprehensive survey of textile designs in the English Arts and Crafts style. For twenty-five years after the first Arts and Crafts Exhibition in 1888, these English textiles were shown throughout Europe and the United States, influencing designers and attracting a large public. The refined creations of Arthur Silver (including Liberty`s celebrated Peacock Feather), the distinctive designs of C. F. A. Voysey, the floral patterns of Lindsay Butterfield and George Haite?all were, and continue to be, a source of delight and inspiration. Linda Parry first examines the evolution and development of the style and discusses the whole range of Arts and Crafts textiles?printed and woven fabrics, tapestries and carpets, lace and embroidery. She then presents an alphabetical annotated catalogue that provides invaluable information on designers, manufacturers, and shops. The illustrations have been selected from the… [detailed...]

Textiles of the Wiener Werkstatte: 1910-1932

2004 y.
Publisher: —
Description: A superbly illustrated volume that draws on the most comprehensive collection of Wiener WerkstA¤tte designs in existence. The textile department of the Wiener WerkstA¤tte was established seven years after the inauguration of this famous and highly influential Viennese association of artists and craftsmen. The demand for fabric designs for use by the fashion department and in interior decoration was met by original designs from some 100 artists, including the association`s cofounder Josef Hoffmann and other leading figures such as Dagobert Peche, Carl Otto Czeschka, and Maria Likarz. Their creativity gave rise to one of the most remarkable legacies of modern textile design. This book draws on the original gouache drawings, pattern books, and samples now in the collection of the Austrian Museum of Applied Arts, Vienna?a truly remarkable archive of the over 1,800 recorded fabric designs. These range from the early rounded naturalistic motifs of art nouveau to later… [detailed...]

David Mosse
Texts and Tribals: Inside an Overseas Aid Project (Anthropology, Culture and Society Series)

— y.
Publisher: —
Description: Today there is a preoccupation among development agencies and researchers with getting policy right, with exerting influence over policy, linking research to policy and with implementing policy around the world. But what if development practice is notdriven by policy? Suppose that the things that make for `good policy` ? policy which legitimises and mobilises political support ? in reality make it impossible to implement within its chosen institutions and regions? By focusing in detail on the unfolding activities of a development project in western India over more than ten years as it falls under different policy regimes, this book takes a close look at the relationship between policy and practice in development. David Mosse shows how the actions of development workers are shaped by the exigencies of organisations and the need to maintain relationships rather than by policy, but also that development actors work hardest of all to maintain coherent representations… [detailed...]

Texts on Prostitution, 1592-1633: Essential Works for the Study of Early Modern Women

2007 y.
Publisher: Ashgate Publishing
Description: Most studies of early modern prostitution look at either medieval prostitution or post-Civil War prostitution. Little critical attention is paid to the first half of the seventeenth century. As these volumes demonstrate, primary sources do exist in the late sixteenth century and throughout the full seventeenth century, and serve not solely as precursors for eighteenth-century pornographic writing. The texts selected here cover a full range of literary forms: non-fictional works, broadsides, plays, short and long poems, and novella-length prose pieces. They are concerned with women who receive payment in the form of cash, goods or patronage from their numerous lovers, they do not tell stories of merely unruly women who were vilified as `whores` for attending the theatre or scolding their husbands. However the various bawds, courtesans and whores whose stories are included in these volumes have little in common with the real-life English prostitutes and their daily lives and as such… [detailed...]

Texture. Form. Purity. Detail

2002 y.
Publisher: Conran Octopus
Description: `The idea that an inanimate object can change your humour, affect your mood, is remarkable - the dress that makes you feel wonderful, the quilt that comforts you, the room that calms or enchants you`. For John Rocha, design is about balance and beauty, and their celebration in the raw material. This understanding of the organic state - whether fabric, glass, wood or stone - is the key to an aesthetically pleasing and functional creation. Four simple elements define his work: texture, form, purity and detail, and they create a coherent design philosophy that unites his clothes and home collections, and his architectural and interior designs.These elements are the focus of this book. John Rocha is renowned for his use of contrasting textures and muted colours, marrying age-old materials and techniques with contemporary shapes. His clothes are modern and yet eternal, his pieces for the home are luxurious, but deeply practical. These principles have also been translated into the… [detailed...]

Thai Capital After the 1997 Crisis

2008 y.
Publisher: —
Description: The 1997 crisis was not only a massive shock but also a major turning point for Asian economies. In Thailand, it marked the end of an era when the economy was powered by local entrepreneurship. Around a quarter of major business groups were wrecked. Foreign capital poured in. The engine of growth is now an export economy dominated by multinationals, while domestic capital is confined to service and rentier activities. This book, the product of a four-year project by a dozen researchers, provides a panorama of this jolting change. It examines the fate of major business groups, the changing role of family firms, the transformation of the automotive industry, the invasion of the megastores, the saga of the mobile phone, the success stories of the Crown Property Bureau and Charoen liquor empire, the impact on business and local politics in the provinces, the exploits of Thai multinationals overseas, and the changing interplay between business capital and political power. Finally, it… [detailed...]
