Weaving Identity

Textiles, Global Modernization and Harris Tweed

Beschreibung

Scotland's Harris Tweed, famously "hand woven in the Outer Hebrides," transformed national identities through two turbulent centuries. The culture and history of home weavers turning the color of their landscape into material for markets on the other side of the world form an integral part of a globe spanning story involving wars, famine, migrations, industrialization, and modernization.
