The Cultural Histories are multi-volume sets that survey the social and cultural construction of specific subjects across six historical periods, broadly: - Antiquity- The Medieval Age- The Renaissance- The Age of Enlightenment- The Age of Empire- The Modern AgeThe subjects covered range from Animals to Dress and Fashion, from Sport to Furniture, from Money to Fairy Tales. Each volume discusses the same themes in its chapters so that readers may gain an understanding of a period by reading an entire volume, or follow a theme through history by reading the relevant chapter in each volume. Each six-volume set is illustrated. Titles are available as printed sets for libraries needing just one subject or preferring a one-off purchase and tangible reference for their shelves, or as part of a fully searchable digital library available to institutions by annual subscription or perpetual access (see www.bloomsburyculturalhistory.com).PRAISE FOR THE SERIESA Cultural History of Dress and Fashion“Intriguing, surprising, and thought-provoking essays covering many cultural layers of dress history.”CHOICEA Cultural History of Fairy Tales“A comprehensive treatise that belongs in every academic library concerned with a form of literature that has had broad appeal for centuries and continues to do so.”CHOICEA Cultural History of Hair“A thick, tangled and deliciously idiosyncratic history of hair.”Times Literary SupplementA Cultural History of Law“These introductions should be of great use to scholars from across the periods.”Law & LiteratureA Cultural History of Peace“The set is a good introduction to the study of peace and encourages looking at world history in a new way.”CHOICEA Cultural History of Theatre“All six volumes are aesthetically attractive, with well-chosen cover illustrations in color and numerous halftones throughout.
