The Idea of Luxury: A Conceptual and Historical Investigation Год выпуска: 1994Автор: Christopher J. BerryИздательство: Cambridge University PressСтраниц: 292ISBN: 0521466911Описание In this far-ranging and innovative study Christopher Berry explores the meanings and ramifications of the idea of luxury. Insights from political theory, philosophy and intellectual history are utilized in a sophisticated conceptual analysis that is complemented by a series of specific historical investigations. Dr. Berry suggests that the value attached to luxury is a crucial component in any society's self-understanding, and shows how luxury has changed from being essentially a negative term, threatening social virtue, to a guileless ploy supporting consumption.
