Product Information

This volume looks at how the issues of textiles and gender intertwine across three millennia in antiquity and examines continuities and differences across time and space - with surprising resonances for the modern world. The interplay of gender, identity, textile production and use is notable on many levels, from the question of who was involved in the transformation of raw materials into fabric at one end, to the wearing of garments and the construction of identity at the other. Textile production has often been considered to follow a linear trajectory from a domestic (female) activity to a more 'commercial' or 'industrial' (male-centred) mode of production. In reality, many modes of production co-existed and the making of textiles is not so easily grafted onto the labour of one sex or the other. Similarly, textiles once transformed into garments are often of 'unisex' shape but worn to express the gender of the wearer. As shown by the detailed textual source material and the rich illustrations in this volume, dress and gender are intimately linked in the visual and written records of antiquity. The contributors show how it is common practice in both art and literature not only to use particular garments to characterize one sex or the other, but also to undermine characterizations by suggesting that they display features usually associated with the opposite gender.

Reviews
"[ Textiles and Gender in Antiquity ] is a great resource for in depth knowledge and studies of Antiquity, textiles, and gender." -- Journal of Dress History, This essential volume provides a much-needed study of textiles, dress, and gender in the ancient world. With its wide chronological and geographical range, it provides students and scholars with useful information from the ancient Near East to late antique Rome in a series of essays that look not only at clothing and textile production, but also at how these categories were almost always cast in terms of gender in antiquity., [ Textiles and Gender in Antiquity ] is a great resource for in depth knowledge and studies of Antiquity, textiles, and gender.
