Etat : as new. Durham : Duke University Press, c1996. Paperback. 283 pp. - Examines the dynamic relationship between the body, clothing, and identity in sub-Saharan Africa. Drawing from the insights of anthropology and history and influenced by developments in cultural studies, this volume investigates the relations between ideas about the self and those about the family, gender, and national groups. This volume examines the dynamic relationship between the body, clothing, and identity in sub-Saharan Africa and raises questions that have previously been directed almost exclusively to a Western and urban context. Unusual in its treatment of the body surface as a critical frontier in the production and authentification of identity, Clothing and Difference shows how the body and its adornment have been used to construct and contest social and individual identities in Nigeria, Zimbabwe, Tanzania, Kenya, and other African societies during both colonial and post-colonial times. Grounded in the insights of anthropology and history and influenced by developments in cultural studies, these essays investigate the relations between the personal and the public, and between ideas about the self and those about the family, gender, and national groups. They explore the bodily and material creation of the changing identities of women, spirits, youths, ancestors, and entrepreneurs through a consideration of topics such as fashion, spirit possession, commodity exchange, hygiene, and mourning. By taking African societies as its focus, Clothing and Difference demonstrates that factors considered integral to Western social development-heterogeneity, migration, urbanization, transnational exchange, and media representation-have existed elsewhere in different configurations and with different outcomes. With significance for a wide range of fields, including gender studies, cultural studies, art history, performance studies, political science, semiotics, economics, folklore, and fashion and textile analysis/design, this work provides alternative views of the structures underpinning Western systems of commodification, postmodernism, and cultural differentiation.

Taschenbuch. Etat : Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - Empathy isn't about taking on someone else's pain or fixing their problems. It's not about being endlessly available or sacrificing your wellbeing to prove you care. Real empathy is the capacity to feel with someone without losing yourself in their experience-to witness their emotions without needing to change, solve, or carry them.This book explores what empathy actually requires, examining the difference between genuine connection and emotional enmeshment, between compassion and codependency. It draws on attachment research and nervous system science to show why some people feel too much while others struggle to feel at all, and how both patterns often stem from the same wound: unclear boundaries around emotional experience.Rather than treating empathy as an innate trait you either have or don't, it examines empathy as a skill that depends on self-regulation, emotional literacy, and the ability to hold space without collapsing into rescue or avoidance. It explores why feeling deeply doesn't mean you're responsible for fixing, why presence matters more than solutions, and why your own emotional clarity is what makes connection possible.For those who feel drained by others' emotions, who confuse empathy with self-sacrifice, or who want deeper connection without losing themselves, this book offers insight into what empathy looks like when it's grounded in both openness and boundaries.…
