Visible Self
Description:
This long-anticipated revision expands on the principles introduced in the original 1973 edition by Mary Ellen Roach-Higgins and Eicher. The authors elaborate on what dress is, define ethnocentrism, and position dress in today's society. Using Western and non-Western examples, the book fosters an appreciation of the diversity of surface appearance through an exploration of the common purposes served by dress to protect, satisfy, and communicate. The Visible Self analyzes the act of dressing -- not simply putting on clothing, but cleansing the body and adorning it. Beautifully illustrated, this text is recommended for programs in clothing and textiles as well as anthropology, sociology, women's studies, history, and theater. Design and merchandising students in particular will gain awareness of the significance of dress in the global marketplace.Instructor's Guide includes sample assignments, test questions, notes on text discussion questions and activities, and additional resources.
