Beauty and the Norm
Recent decades have seen the rise of a global beauty boom, with profound effects on perceptions of bodies worldwide. Against this background, Beauty and the Norm assembles ethnographic and conceptual approaches from a variety of disciplines and across the globe to debate standardization in bodily appearance. Its contributions range from empirical research to exploratory conversations between scholars and personal reflections. Bridging hitherto separate debates in critical beauty studies, cultural anthropology, sociology, the history of science, disability studies, gender studies, and critical race studies, this volume reflects upon the gendered, classed, and racialized body, normative regimes of representation, and the global beauty economy.
Women of Prague
Each of the 12 chapters presents a first-person account, based on letters and autobiography, of a woman who contributed significantly to the cultural life of Prague from the late 18th century to the present. Excellent historical notes accompany each account as well as fascinating but fuzzy bandw photos. Annotation copyright by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR
