The lively and authoritative text is accompanied by gorgeous new and vintage images. Seduction is a visual feast and a fascinating study of the development of a woman's means of sedecution throughout the centuries.

Abstract

Présentant les principaux looks portés depuis un siècle sur les cinq continents, l'auteure expose l'histoire et les valeurs des contre-cultures et sous-cultures dont ils sont les étendards. Du grunge de Seattle au steampunk de Nouvelle-Zélande, en passant par le cosplay chinois, le style sapeur congolais ou l'anarcho-punk berlinois, l'Atlas mondial du look et des contre-cultures démontre la richesse qui se cache derrière un style et des vêtements. Un look exprime souvent en effet la résistance, la subversion, une appartenance à une communauté musicale, ou les trois à la fois. Illustré par plus de 600 photographies, cet atlas défie le temps et l'espace afin de compiler dans ses pages un panorama incroyablement riche des cultures urbaines des quatre coins du monde.

Abstract

"Between 1819 and 1845, as veterans of the Revolutionary War were filing applications to receive pensions for their service, the government was surprised to learn that many of the soldiers were not men, but boys, many of whom were under the age of sixteen, and some even as young as nine. In Boy Soldiers of the American Revolution, Caroline Cox reconstructs the lives and stories of this young subset of early American soldiers, focusing on how these boys came to join the army and what they actually did in service. Giving us a rich and unique glimpse into colonial childhood, Cox traces the evolution of youth in American culture in the late eighteenth century, as the accepted age for children to participate meaningfully in society--not only in the military--was rising dramatically"--

Abstract

"Hair and fashion are inextricably linked, signs of the times, reflective of the zeitgeist. Whether long or cropped, curly or straight, hairstyles are a potent force and, in combination with the latest fashions, create unforgettable images: from Vidal Sassoon's 'Five Point Cut' for Mary Quant, to the punk look of 1970s London to Sam McKnight's iconic styles for Princess Diana. Hair is fashion and fashion is hair, a fascinating symbiotic relationship which is investigated in detail in this timely book. Hair & Fashion considers both the historical development of this relationship and its contemporary significance, focusing on key moments such as the 1920s bob, the long-haired hippie look of the 1960s and the recent Hoxton Fin. The role of colour for hair and its associated cultural meanings have become increasingly important in the twenty-first century, an era in which most women have dyed their hair at least once, and Hair & Fashion also looks closely at the role of the blonde, brunette and redhead in popular culture. This text is supported by evocative images, including work by top photographers from groundbreaking fashion shoots, as well as specially commissioned shoots. Haircuts and hairstyles, as this book reveals, are no mere simple incursions into hair taming and conformity but a living, growing embodiment of cultural codes and meanings with the potential to turn you into a walking work of art."--Jacket.
