Hardcover, 22 cm. Zustand: Wie neu. 340 pp. A good and very clean copy. - Summary: This book investigates men and quiltmaking, an under-researched part of the U.S.-American quilt world. It analyzes the connection between the genderedness of material practice and White masculinity concepts in the U.S.-American mainstream. The examination of the construct of masculinity in two quilt novel series from the 2010s aims to answer the question of whether the characters' attitudes towards quiltmaking and quilts as objects provide information about change in heterosexual gender relations and whether the fictional masculinities in Wanda E. Brunstetter's or Ann Hazelwood's novels promote new approaches to manhood. Due to the paucity of scholarly work on contemporary quilt fiction, this book also contributes to the study of a hybrid genre. - Contents: " 1 Introduction -- 2 History of Quiltmaking and White Euro-American Manhood -- 2.1 Challenges in Quilt Studies and Resources -- 2.2 Concepts of Masculinities in the United States -- 2.3 Brief Historical Account of Quiltmaking as a Craft and as an Art in the United States with a Special Focus on Men -- 3 Men in Selected Fictional Texts on Quiltmaking -- 3.1 Narrative Texts Related to Quiltmaking and Their Categorization -- 3.2.
