Full Description
This fourth title in the new Oxbow Reflections series celebrates the academic career of leading Danish textile history expert Marie-Louise Nosch, as seen through her many contributions to collected works and monographs published by Oxbow Books. In collaboration with the author, we have selected papers that reflect some of the major themes that have been the subject of her long-term research into the understanding and interpretation of many aspects of ancient textile production and use. She has pioneered inter-disciplinary study of archaeological remains, textile tools, textile terminology in early languages, especially as represented in the Linear B tablets of Mycenean Greece, representation of dress and textiles in the Classical period and experimental work. She has published meticulously researched contributions, many of them in close collaboration with current and former colleagues and research students, and established the renowned Ancient Textiles series as a collaboration between the Centre for Textile Research in Copenhagen and Oxbow Books. She has edited or commissioned many of the titles in the series.
In these papers we see demonstrated the breadth and development of some of Marie-Louise's key interests and most influential ideas that continue to inspire scholars and stimulate debate. Includes an introduction by the author.
