Présentation de l'éditeur
Rozsika Parker's re-evaluation of the reciprocal relationship between women and embroidery has brought stitchery out from the private world of female domesticity into the fine arts, created a major breakthrough in art history and criticism, and fostered the emergence of today's dynamic and expanding crafts movements. 'The Subversive Stitch' is now available again with a new Introduction that brings the book up to date with exploration of the stitched art of Louise Bourgeois and Tracey Emin, as well as the work of new young female and male embroiderers. Rozsika Parker uses household accounts, women's magazines, letters, novels and the works of art themselves to trace through history how the separation of the craft of embroidery from the fine arts came to be a major force in the marginalisation of women's work. Beautifully illustrated, her book also discusses the contradictory nature of women's experience of embroidery: how it has inculcated female subservience while providing an immensely pleasurable source of creativity, forging links between women.

Original Wraps. Etat : Near Fine. Etat de la jaquette : No Jacket, as Issued. First Paperback Edition. First paperback edition - second printing - published as a large-format paperback in 1989. The book was originally published in hardback in 1984, and first issued in paperback in 1986.

Head and tail of spine slightly rubbed and creased. No serious creases and no tears. Page block edges clean. No reading lean to the binding. Light vertical reading creases to the spine. Spine tight. Internally also near fine with no inscriptions. No creases or tears. Pages clean. ***244mm x 160mm. 247 pages including a detailed section of Notes, Select Bibliography and Further Reading, Glossary and Index at the back of the book. ***'In this fascinating study, Rozsika Parker, co-author of "Old Mistresses: Women, Art and Ideology," traces the shifting notions of femininity, and roles ascribed to women, through embroidery from mediaeval times to today. In the middle ages women worked alongside men in embroiderers' guild workshops as apprentices, designers and stitchers of gold, silver and silk. Yet by the eighteenth century embroidering was considered to come naturally to women alone, and by the nineteenth century the fine stitchery expected of women of the upper classes, and the skilled work extracted for starvation wages from working-class women, had become both symbol and instrument of subservience.' ***'--- marvelously written and illustrated book --- Ms Parker's thesis is a bold one --- but it is one that she sustains convincingly.' - Times Educational Supplement ***' --- a book wonderfully rich, not only in information, but in people and ideas.' - Guardian ***'The book is the basis for a major exhibition of the same name.' (Quotes taken from the back cover) ***A second printing, from 1989, of the first paperback issue of this detailed work of social history. Quite uncommon. ***For all our books, postage is charged at cost, allowing for packaging: any shipping rates indicated on ABE are an average only: we will reduce the P & P charge where appropriate - please contact us for postal rates for heavier books and sets etc. N° de réf. du vendeur PB678
