Item description from seller

Print on Demand. This book is an extensive exploration of the use of gloves throughout history and today, from their first use as protection, through their role in fashion and ceremonial contexts, to their use in healing practices. The author draws insights from art, literature, and historical research to present a wide-ranging investigation into the significance of gloves in human society. The book discusses the role of gloves in defining gender roles, their importance in religious and cultural rituals, and how their use can reveal much about our social history and our understanding of the human body. Ultimately, this book offers a new and nuanced understanding of the glove as an object of both practical and profound cultural and historical significance. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. …
