Le textile en Provence

Format: Hardback

Condition: Standard Secondhand — £29.37
What do the conditions mean?

Our conditions mean the following:

  • New - a brand new book
  • Almost New - appears new but is actually secondhand.
  • Very Good - only minor imperfections such as minor scuffs to edge or cover or a price written in pencil or shop sticker.
  • Standard Secondhand - Clearly been read before, but not too bad. We do not recommend these for gifting. Spines usually creased. Could also include creases or folds to cover, some writing such as in the cover or elsewhere, underlining or highlighting, but might not do. Possibly some stains or marks. Similar in general to books in any secondhand shop or charity shop.
  • Poor Condition - Usually this will have a specific problem such as writing inside, water damage, missing dust jacket, heavy staining, large creases or cuts. These are readable copies but not nice ones. On other websites this condition is called 'Acceptable' or 'Fair' , but we want to be more honest.

Des outils, un terroir et ses matières premières, des savoir-faire au service de la mode, du goût et de l'image que l'on veut donner de soi... Imagine-t-on l'incroyable somme de combinaisons techniques et de connaissances qu'il a fallu thésauriser depuis des temps immémoriaux pour parvenir aux tissus que nous pouvons maintenant admirer dans les musées ? Depuis la plante textile jusqu'à l'étoffe ennoblie, remontant bien en amont du costume, Annie Roux restitue dans ce livre la substance - gestes, alchimie, choix inconscients collectifs - de ce qui a conduit à une production étonnamment diversifiée. Sait-on, par exemple, que c'est Avignon, lorsqu'elle accueillait les papes, qui bénéficia la première de la chaîne complète des métiers de la soie ? Connaît-on le rôle primordial de la Provence - et de Marseille en particulier - dans la diffusion en France des cotonnades imprimées ? Première grande synthèse consacrée au sujet, le Textile en Provence aborde toutes ces interrogations en embrassant l'ensemble de la question pour la période allant du XVe siècle à la révolution industrielle.
