SYNOPSIS: A major European sociologist's fascinating attempt to understand and describe the many manifestations of fashion through the ages. Konig investigates the persistence of human interest in fashion; the concept of trends in human and animal behavior; the psychological implications of fashion, its relation to sexual mores and role playing, its ceremonial functions, and its economic significance. Man's reaction to modes of dress is examined, from the prophet Zephaniah's condemnation of "all those who array themselves in foreign attire" to the public rage over topless dresses and hot pants; and consideration is also given to the extended sense of fashion behavior as "consumerism." Konig's knowing and sound approach is made easily accessible through a style that is precise, light, and free of sociological jargon. Rene Konig currently heads the department of sociology at the University of Cologne. He previously served as secretary of the First World Congress of Sociology in Zurich, as president of the International Sociological Association, and as director of the Sociological Research Institute, Cologne. A former Rockefeller Fellow, he has taught as guest professor at the Universities of Michigan, California, and Colorado, and at Columbia University. Size: 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall.
