Legal Stagings
Author: Kjell Å ModéerPublisher: Museum Tusculanum Press
ISBN: 8763531615
Category : Law
Languages : en
Pages : 313
Book Description
In this book, a group of lawyers and legal historians help to identify the new Nordic legal map, which is under construction. This book is a collection of papers addressing legal staging, and most of the articles combine theoretical approaches to the visuality of law with practical experiences and effects. The texts show that law is so much more than law in action and law in books: law is also part of a visual culture. It contributes to that culture and is, in turn, analyzed, maintained, and criticized by that culture. At the same time, the cultural manifestations of law change the way we understand law and, thus, change law itself.
The Right to Dress
Author: Giorgio RielloPublisher: Cambridge University Press
ISBN: 1108643523
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 525
Book Description
This is the first global history of dress regulation and its place in broader debates around how human life and societies should be visualised and materialised. Sumptuary laws were a tool on the part of states to regulate not only manufacturing systems and moral economies via the medium of expenditure and consumption of clothing but also banquets, festivities and funerals. Leading scholars on Asian, Latin American, Ottoman and European history shed new light on how and why items of dress became key aspirational goods across society, how they were lobbied for and marketed, and whether or not sumptuary laws were implemented by cities, states and empires to restrict or channel trade and consumption. Their findings reveal the significance of sumptuary laws in medieval and early modern societies as a site of contestation between individuals and states and how dress as an expression of identity developed as a modern 'human right'.
