Free Download Fabric: The Hidden History of the Material World by Victoria Finlay, Carla Kissane, Tantor Audio
English | 2022 | ISBN: B0B6WTRJDP | Format: MP3 / Bitrate: 64 Kbps / 17 hours and 30 minutes + EPUB | 542 Mb
A magnificent work of original research that unravels history through textiles and cloth-how we make it, use it, and what it means to us.
How is a handmade fabric helping save an ancient forest? Why is a famous fabric pattern from India best known by the name of a Scottish town? How is a Chinese dragon robe a diagram of the whole universe? What is the difference between how the Greek Fates and the Viking Norns used threads to tell our destiny?
In Fabric, bestselling author Victoria Finlay spins us round the globe, weaving stories of our relationship with cloth and asking how and why people through the ages have made it, worn it, invented it, and made symbols out of it. And sometimes why they have fought for it.

Free Download Stephen Watt, "Bernard Shaw’s Fiction, Material Psychology, and Affect: Shaw, Freud, Simmel"
English | 2018 | ISBN: 3319715127, 3030100677 | PDF | pages: 245 | 2.1 mb
This book traces the effects of materiality – including money and its opposite, poverty – on the psychical lives of George Bernard Shaw and his characters. While this study focuses on the protagonists of the five novels Shaw wrote in the late 1870s and early 1880s, it also explores how materialism, feeling, and emotion are linked throughout his entire canon. At the same time, it demonstrates how Shaw’s conceptions of human subjectivity parallel those of two of his contemporaries, Sigmund Freud and Georg Simmel. In particular, this book explores how theories of so-called ‘marginal economics’ influence fin de siècle thought about human psychology and the sociology of the modern metropolis, particularly London.
