They give her fairer skin, eyes like a Western baby doll, and gowns inspired by sources from Victorian England to MTV.An absorbing consideration of contemporary bridal practices in Taiwan, Framing the Bride shows how the lavish photographs represent more than mere conspicuous consumption. They are artifacts infused with cultural meaning and emotional significance, products of the gender- and generation-based conflicts in Taiwan's hybrid system of modern matrimony. From the bridal photographs, the book opens out into broader issues such as courtship, marriage, kinship, globalization, and the meaning of the "West" and "Western" cultural images of beauty.Bonnie Adrian argues that in compiling enormous bridal albums full of photographs of brides and grooms in varieties of finery, posed in different places, and exuding romance, Taiwanese brides engage in a new rite of passage-one that challenges the terms of marriage set out in conventional wedding rites. In Framing the Bride, we see how this practice is also a creative response to U.S. domination of transnational visual imagery-how bridal photographers and their subjects take the project of globalization into their own hands, defining its terms for their lives even as they expose the emptiness of its images. 606 $aWedding supplies and services industry$zTaiwan 606 $aWeddings$zTaiwan$xEquipment and supplies 606 $aBridal shops$zTaiwan 606 $aWedding photography$zTaiwan 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aWedding supplies and services industry 615 0$aWeddings$xEquipment and supplies. 615 0$aBridal shops 615 0$aWedding photography 676 $a338.4/73925/0951249 700 $aAdrian$b Bonnie$f1970-$01048410 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910450137403321 996 $aFraming the bride$92476686 997 $aUNINA LEADER 01110nam0 22002771i 450 001 UON00024300 005 20231205102033.435 100 $a20020107d1954 |0itac50 ba 101 $aita 102 $aIT 105 $a|||| 1|||| 200 1 $aNote sul diritto indiano antico e la sua formazione$fEster Panetta 210 $aRoma$cIstituto Italiano di Antropologia$d1954 215 $a9 p.$d23 cm 300 $aEstr. da: Rivista di Antropologia, vol.
