A9780226834320Hardback. New. <b>An insightful history of nineteenth- and twentieth-century Britain told through a single sense: touch. </b><br />  <br /> When where and who gets to touch and be touched and who decides What do we learn through touch How does touch bring us closer together or push us apart These are urgent contemporary questions but they have their origins in late nineteenth- and early twentieth-century Britain when new urban encounters compelled intense discussion of what touch was and why it mattered. In this vividly written book Simeon Koole excavates the history of these concerns and reveals how they continue to shape ideas about “touch†in the present.<br />  <br /><i>Intimate Subjects</i> takes us to the bustling railway stations shady massage parlors all-night coffee stalls and other shared spaces where passengers customers vagrants and others came into contact leading to new understandings of touch. We travel in crammed subway cars where strangers negotiated the boundaries of personal space. We visit tea shops where waitresses made difficult choices about autonomy and consent. We enter classrooms in which teachers wondered whether blind children could truly grasp the world and labs in which neurologists experimented on themselves and others to unlock the secrets of touch. We tiptoe through London’s ink-black fogs in which disoriented travelers became newly conscious of their bodies and feared being accosted by criminals. Across myriad forgotten encounters such as these Koole shows touch remade what it meant to be embodied—as well as the meanings of disability personal boundaries and scientific knowledge.<br />  <br /> With imagination and verve <i>Intimate Subjects</i> offers a new way of theorizing the body and the senses as well as a new way of thinking about embodiment and vulnerability today.<br />  hardcover

196750416London: George Allen & Unwin 1967. First printing. Near fine. First UK edition of Dahl's escapist fruit adventure - a beautiful copy. Originally published in the U.S. in 1961 and newly illustrated by Simeon for this first British edition JAMES AND THE GIANT PEACH was described in Allen & Unwin's foreword as Dahl's "first book for children" somewhat accurate if one disregards his earlier THE GREMLINS 1943 originally intended as the basis for a Disney film. <br /> <br /> Dahl's genius as a writer for all age groups lies in his refusal to strip his children's books of the pure unadulterated nastiness at the core of his most memorable adult short stories; sex is absent but the vulgarity and meanness in the darkness of the human heart is if anything greater and more fearsome here: for Dahl hatred of injustice is born early in a child's spirit and festers until it finds some awful Aunt-crushing catharsis. The gruesome revenges taken by the weak upon the strong are correspondingly satisfying unfettered by impulses to mercy and as deeply transgressive as ever: Dahl's works for children have often been objected to by adults and this particular book regularly features on lists of banned or challenged books in American libraries - but for many children it is the spark of fantasy within bleak settings that appeals to the imagination without becoming saccharine. Tim Burton famously told Dahl's widow he wanted to turn JAMES AND THE GIANT PEACH into a film because "it's the only book that ever gave me any hope when I was a child" D IS FOR DAHL. <br /> <br /> Given the laminate boards this book is extremely difficult to find in such lovely condition. 9.25'' x 6.5''. Original laminated pictorial boards. No jacket as issued. Illustrated by Simeon in black and white. 110 2 pages. Laminate beginning to pull a tiny bit near joints though entirely intact else sound and bright. Faint marginal toning to leaves. George Allen & Unwin unknown
