Product Information

A consideration of the intricate relationship between consumption and womanhood in the late-18th and 19th centuries. Taking as her starting point a diversity of cultural artefacts - from domestic fiction and philosophical treatises to advice literature and cigars - Lori Merish explores the symbolic functions they served and finds that consumption evolved into a form of personal expressiveness that indicated not only a woman's wealth and taste but also her race, class, morality and civic values. The discursive production of this new subjectivity - the feminine consumer - was remarkably influential, helping to shape American capitalism, culture, and nation building.
