Provides a thorough and nuanced analysis, of both the cheongsam's place in a globalized world, and what the garment represents to and on the bodies of women of Chinese descent all over the world., "By skillfully stitching race, gender and identity onto the cheongsam, Sim reveals the craft of the diasporic community and the multiplicity of this ethnic garment." -- Wessie Ling, Northumbria University, UK "In the first study of its kind, Cheryl Sim adds original and valuable insights to existing knowledge of the cheongsam.

Synopsis
Associations between the cheongsam dress and Chinese cultural identity are well known but what are the meanings of the cheongsam for members of the Chinese diaspora? In a study grounded in first-hand accounts of wearing, Cheryl Sim explores the practices and experiences of women in Canada, a major Chinese diaspora, and carries out the first in-depth study of the cheongsam from this critical point of view. Questions explored over the course of 20 interviews, as well as during personal reflections on the author's own experiences of wearing, include: is there a desire to re-claim or appropriate the cheongsam? Does this desire risk perpetuating stereotypes of Asian women? Does it undermine one's identification with one's host country? Can erased heritage(s) be accessed through dress? And how does wearing the cheongsam interact with the male gaze? Revealing feelings of repulsion and attraction, Sim combines personal stories with an authoritative use of theoretical frameworks such as feminism, post-colonialism and autoethnography. Covering issues such as heritage, ethnic identity, authenticity, nationalism, patriarchy and assimilation, Sim demonstrates that the meanings of the cheongsam are multifarious. Readable but with strong academic underpinnings, this book is the entry point into discussions of Chinese dress and diaspora.

- t***r (353)- Opinie wystawione przez kupującego.Ostatni miesiącZakup potwierdzonyWas a little disappointed in this purchase. First of all the book arrived very late ( almost three weeks after I ordered it). Secondly it is an anonymous third party publisher scanned and reprinted copy of 18th century original text (in public domain) so some sections were barely legible. Definitely not worth $30.00 price. That being said book binding was new and well bound and book was well packaged arrived in excellent condition.
- g***_ (137)- Opinie wystawione przez kupującego.Ostatni miesiącZakup potwierdzonyItem in perfect condition. Rare book to find! I've waited decades to obtain this item! The price was very reasonable. Packaged and wrapped securely. Fast shipment and efficient service. Those interested in patristics and ancient church literature and tradition should obtain this volume. I am looking forward to future transactions with this business outfit.
