Abstract: After the Civil War the upper middle class in America expanded and became increasingly style-conscious. Visiting European royalty as well as American women returning from the International Exhibition in Paris in 1867 stimulated fashion awareness — and it was in this climate that the magazine Harper's Bazar flowered. Dedicated to being "A repository of Fashion, Pleasure, and Instruction," it brought to American women inside glimpses of the very latest European and American fashions, all in carefully detailed engravings. It was much the finest source for high fashion for this period.This book consists of the finest illustrations from Harper's Bazar between the years 1867 and 1898, the period of its peak importance. These illustrations not only show you what apparel appealed to our Victorian ancestors, but give you an idea of the evolutionary nature of fashion as well. You will see bustles come and go, natural forms become the vogue only to be superseded by the constricting hourglass figure. Each look is illustrated with a number of different garments. There are gowns for the morning hours, dinner dresses, sporting costumes, traveling clothes and apparel for special occasions: weddings, communions, funerals, etc. Since no costume was complete without accessories, a full line of hats, fans, parasols, muffs, gloves, handkerchiefs, jewelry, shoes and hair styles is shown as well. A selection of children's attire is also included. An introduction by Stella Blum covers the history of Harper's Bazar and examines the various phases fashion went through between 1867 and 1898.

A cura di Mariannina Failla e Giacomo Marramao. Firenze, Olschki Ed. 2014, cm 17 x 24, xiv-222 pp. Multi Il volume qui proposto al lettore è il frutto del confronto fra intellettuali europei attenti ai problemi più cogenti dell’attualità: globalizzazione, crisi economico-finanziaria, immigrazione, cittadinanza e accoglienza. Il dibattito prende così le mosse dai concetti di inclusione ed esclusione per individuare nell’ospite la condizione dell’uomo in quanto tale e non di un singolo gruppo, inoltrandosi dunque in una riflessione sul mercato, sulle sue degenerazioni finanziarie e sui suoi conflitti con la democrazia. / This volume collects the results of the joined efforts of European intellectuals in front of the most urgent problems of our times: globalization, economic and financial crisis, immigration, citizenship. The debate moves from the concepts of inclusion and exclusion to assert that the condition of ‘guest’ is common to all human race, and not that of a single group. It then reflects on the financial degeneration of the market and on its conflicts with democracy.
