American Artifacts of Personal Adornment, 1680-1820
Author: Carolyn L. White
Publisher: Rowman Altamira
ISBN: 9780759105898
Category : Antiques & Collectibles
Languages : en
Pages : 164
Book Description
Bracelets, buckles, buttons, and beads. Clasps, combs, and chains. Items of personal adornment fill museum collections and are regularly uncovered in historical period archaeological excavations. But until the publication of this comprehensive volume, there has been no basic guide to help curators, registrars, historians, archaeologists, or collectors identify this class of objects from colonial and early republican America. Carolyn L. White helps the reader understand and interpret these artifacts, discussing their source, manufacture, materials, function, and value in early American life. She uses them as a window on personal identity, showing how gender, age, ethnicity, and class were often displayed through the objects worn. White draws not only on the items themselves, but uses their portrayal in art, contemporary writings, advertisements, and business records to assess their meaning to their owners. A reference volume for the shelf of anyone interested in early American material culture. Over 100 illustrations and tables.

Framing Childhood in Eighteenth-century English Periodicals and Prints, 1689-1789
Author: Anja Müller
Publisher: Ashgate Publishing, Ltd.
ISBN: 9780754665038
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 286
Book Description
Shedding light on an important and neglected topic in childhood studies, Anja Müller interrogates how different concepts of childhood proliferated and were construed in eighteenth-century periodicals and satirical prints. In examining links between text and image, Müller uncovers the role these media played in the genealogy of childhood prior to the 1790s, challenging the myth that situates the origin of childhood in late eighteenth-century England.
