Luxury and Pleasure in Eighteenth-Century Britain pdf epub mobi txt 电子书 下载 2024
In this book, Maxine Berg explores the invention, making, and buying of new, semi-luxury, and fashionable consumer goods during the eighteenth century. It follows these goods, from china tea ware to all sorts of metal ornaments such as candlesticks, cutlery, buckles, and buttons, as they were made and shopped for, then displayed in the private domestic settings of Britain's urban middling classes. It tells the stories and analyses the developments that led from a global trade in Eastern luxuries beginning in the sixteenth century to the new global trade in British-made consumer goods by the end of the eighteenth century. These new products, regarded as luxuries by the rapidly growing urban and middling-class people of the eighteenth century, played an important part in helping to proclaim personal identities,and guide social interaction. Customers enjoyed shopping for them; they took pleasure in their beauty, ingenuity or convenience. All manner of new products appeared in shop windows; sophisticated mixed-media advertising seduced customers and created new wants. This unparalleled 'product revolution' provoked philosophers and pundits to proclaim a 'new luxury', one that reached out to the middling and trading classes, unlike the elite and corrupt luxury of old. Luxury and Pleasure in Eighteenth Century Britain is cultural history at its best, built on a fresh empirical base drawn directly from customs accounts, advertising material, company papers, and contemporary correspondence. Maxine Berg traces how this new consumer society of the eighteenth century and the products first traded, then invented to satisfy it, stimulated industrialization itself. Global markets for the consumer goods of private and domestic life inspired the industrial revolution and British products 'won the world'.

对英国工业革命的发生有很多解释,人们比较熟悉的有香料茶叶等的远程贸易刺激,糖和咖啡引发的“甘甜的资本主义”,以及涉及罪恶的奴隶买卖的大西洋三角贸易等等。在《奢侈与逸乐:18 世纪英国的物质世界》一书中,英国学者马克辛·伯格将之归因于 18 世纪在英国发生的轻奢品消...
评分书读一半看见的。我这么粗心的都能挑出这种错。 接下来这个就更夸张了: 我几乎可以非常确定,原作者说的意思是,软质瓷需要烧制两次,第一次定型,然后上铅釉之后再烧制一次。只要是釉,就必须烧,不烧哪来的化学反应变成釉呢?不烧它就始终是个粉末。 还有这段话: 列了一大...
评分桑巴特早在1913年出版的《奢侈与资本主义》一书中就提出一个著名的观点:“在很多情况下(虽然不是全部),为资本主义打开大门,并使之渗透到各行各业的,恰恰是消费的增长”(桑巴特:《奢侈与资本主义》,上海人民出版社2000年版,第212页),从而形成了资本主义确立的“决定性因...
评分《奢侈与逸乐》构建了整个工业社会的消费行为。这本书的初衷当然也是为了工业社会研究进行补充的,当然,最重要的是构造了商品、工作,消费,这种统一性社会。当然本书也有些许遗憾,没有将随之而来的借贷金融领域的情况描述出来。 同时,消费者对社会的推动作用,这个角度其实...
