En gedigen och mycket rikt illustrerad bok om färgens och klädernas roll i det mänskliga livet. Författaren gör en kulturhistorisk genomgång av färgernas skiftande betydelse och lyfter fram det karakteristiska för olika tiders och kulturers klädsel och färgpreferenser. Färg, kläder och identitet är nära sammanlänkade och när man blickar tillbaka kan mode och färg berätta en hel del om bl.a. könsroller och tidsanda. Färger är dessutom viktiga symbolbärare. Att vitt förknippas med ljus och rött med blod är knappast överraskande, men varför står blått för trohet och gult för svek? Vår inställning till färg är i hög grad kulturellt konstruerad. Detta blir mycket tydligt om man följer med på den bildningsresa som den här boken erbjuder.

"This book explores the impact of Westernization on Russia in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries and presents a wealth of photographs of ordinary Russians in all their finery. Christine Ruane draws on memoirs, mail-order catalogues, fashion magazines, and other period sources to demonstrate that Russia's adoption of western fashion had symbolic, political, and social ramifications and was inseparably linked to the development of capitalism, industrial production, and new forms of communication. This book shows how the fashion industry became a forum through which Russians debated and formed a new national identity."--Jacket.

After initial ambivalence about distinctive garb for its ministers, early Christianity developed both liturgical garments and visible markers of clerical status outside church. From the ninth century, moreover, new converts to the faith beyond the Alps developed a highly ornate style of liturgical attire; church vestments were made of precious silks and decorated with embroidered and woven ornament, often incorporating gold and jewels. Making use of surviving medieval textiles and garments; mosaics, frescoes, and manuscript illuminations; canon law; liturgical sources; literary works; hagiography; theological tracts; chronicles, letters, inventories of ecclesiastical treasuries, and wills, Maureen C. Miller in Clothing the Clergy traces the ways in which clerical garb changed over the Middle Ages. Miller's in-depth study of the material culture of church vestments not only goes into detail about craft, artistry, and textiles but also contributes in groundbreaking ways to our understanding of the religious, social, and political meanings of clothing, past and present. As a language of power, clerical clothing was used extensively by eleventh-century reformers to mark hierarchies, to cultivate female patrons, and to make radical new claims for the status of the clergy. The medieval clerical culture of clothing had enduring significance: its cultivation continued within Catholicism and even some Protestant denominations and it influenced the visual communication of respectability and power in the modern Western world. Clothing the Clergy features seventy-nine illustrations, including forty color photographs that put the rich variety of church vestments on display.
