I. Reading out -- pt. 2. Writing in. 330 $aThe fifteen articles in this book address the appearance of the nineteenth-century seamstress as a 'real' figure in the changing economies of nineteenth-century Britain, America, and France, and as an important cultural icon in the art and literature of the period. It assembles the work of leading American, British and Canadian scholars from many different fields, including art history, literary criticism, gender studies, labor history, business history, and economic history to draw together recent scholarship on needlewomen from a variety of different disciplines and methodologies. Famine and Fashion will therefore appeal to anyone studying images of work in the nineteenth century, popular and canonical nineteenth-century literature, the history of women's work, the history of sweated labor, the origins of the ready-made clothing industry and early feminism. 606 $aWomen dressmakers$xHistory$y19th century 606 $aDressmaking$xHistory$y19th century 606 $aFashion$xHistory$y19th century 615 0$aWomen dressmakers$xHistory 615 0$aDressmaking$xHistory 615 0$aFashion$xHistory 676 $a331.488711209034 701 $aHarris$b Beth$f1961-$01874764 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910954399003321 996 $aFamine and fashion$94485521 997 $aUNINA
