�valuation du vendeur 5 sur 5 �toiles

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book explores the detrimental effects of fashion on personal health from the 18th and 19th centuries. It analyzes the social anxieties that contributed to the adoption of unhealthy beauty standards, the damaging effects of corsets and certain footwear on physical development, and the resulting predisposition to disease. The author argues that the prioritization of style over comfort and health created a public health problem, with particular concern for the suffering it caused women and children. By juxtaposing cultural practices with scientific and medical knowledge, this book provides valuable insights into the complex relationship between fashion, beauty, and public health in a time when modern medicine was in its infancy and social forces had a profound sway over personal well-being. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. N� de r�f. du vendeur 9781330317082_0
