Dress and Fashions - With: detailled list of illustrations (pp. XI-XVI), but no index nor bibliography - "Omitting the general facts of history, properly so called, [.] the author has confined his labours to the consideration of manners, customs public and private, costume, arts, sciences, and literature; and this picturesque and descriptive kind of history seems of a nature to satisfy that justifiable curiosity which characterizes the present epoch [.]. Without following a strictly chronological order, [.] we present to our readers [this book]. [.] As to the illustration of the volume, carefully excluding the imitative and fanciful compositions now current, we have taken them from the most famous original works of the best artists of the eighteenth century; and they have been reproduced, under the careful superintendence of M. Racinet, with the scrupulous accuracy which the perfected process of modern science permits." (Publihers preface, p. V f.) -- Paul Lacroix (Paris 1806-1884 ibid.), Historien et bibliographe, Journaliste, Romancier et auteur dramatique, Conservateur à la Bibliothèque de l'Arsenal de 1855 à 1884 (BNF data, et n° FRBNF13091509), Pseudonyme Louis ou Paul-Louis Jacob, ou même Le Bibliophile Jacob (cf. FRBNF15433659) - Conservateur de bibliothèque et hommes de lettres. Polygraphe érudit français. "En 1848, il fut appelé à faire partie de la Commission des Monuments historiques. [.] Officier de la Légion d'honneur (décret du 8 janvier 1860)" (v. Comité des travaux historiques et scientifiques cths, online) -- "Der französische Zeichner, Maler und Lithograph Charles Auguste Albert Racinet (1825-1893) machte sich schon früh einen Namen als Illustrator von Werken, die sich mit der Geschichte der Kleidermode befassten. Sein wohl berühmtestes Werk dieser Art wurde gleichzeitig sein letztes: Le costume historique gab auf 500 Tafeln [.] in sechs Bänden einen Überblick über die Mode der Welt, sowohl aktuelle als auch historische. [.] Doch wurden nicht nur Kostüme, also Kleidungsstücke gezeigt, sondern auch detailreiche Abbildungen von Accessoires usw. Das Werk erschien 1888 in Paris [.]. Es erfreute sich großer Beliebtheit, stand es doch in einer Reihe ähnlicher Publikationen, die in der zweiten Hälfte des 19. Jahrhunderts populär waren. Der Ursprung dieser Popularität von Bildwerken zu Architektur, Kleidung oder Alltagswelt unterschiedlicher Kulturen lag in der wachsenden Begeisterung für (antike) Archäologie, aber auch für Völkerkunde und 'exotische' Länder und Gebräuche."
