Textilia linnaena : Global 18th century textile traditions and trade /Viveka Hansen

"This new monograph of 520 pages looks at how textile traditions spread throughout wider geographical areas to impact culture, economics, trade, textile dyes and social patterns in a world on the verge of becoming all the more globalised. The research project which has since 2006 been undertaken by the Textile Historian Viveka Hansen, was published in January 2017 as part of the IK Foundation's Mundus Linnµi series. A preface by the world leading Linnaeus' expert Gunnar Broberg, Professor emeritus and Editor for the Yearbook of the Swedish Linnaeus Society is introducing the volume."--Provided by the publisher.
