TY - GEN TY - GEN T1 - British dandies : engendering scandal and fashioning a nation A1 - Janes, Dominic, kirjoittaja LA - eng PP - Oxford PB - Bodleian Library YR - 2022 UL - https://kansalliskirjasto.finna.fi/Record/fikka.5621399 AB - "Dressy men as a type of celebrity have played a distinctive part in the cultural and even in the political life of Britain over several centuries. But unlike the twenty-first-century hipster, the dandies of the British past provoked intense degrees of fascination and horror in their homeland and played an important role in British society from the seventeenth to the twentieth century. This book illustrated with contemporary prints, portraits and caricatures explores that social and cultural history through a focus on the macaroni, the dandy and the aesthete. The first was noted for his flamboyance, the second for his austere perfectionism and the third for his sexual perversity. All were highly controversial in their time, pioneering new ways of displaying and performing gender, as demonstrated by the impact of key figures such as Lord Hervey, George Beau Brummell and Oscar Wilde. This groundbreaking study tells the scandalous story of fashionable men and their clothes as a reflection of changing attitudes not only to style but also to gender and sexuality"-- SN - 978-1-85124-559-8 kovakantinen KW - Dandies : Great Britain : History.
