基本信息

内容介绍

这是一部被忽视的历史。这不是一部全面、明确、详尽的世界史，而是一部更安静、更亲切、更特别的历史。打开这个奇珍橱，你会发现有的物品备受推崇--甚至像贝叶挂毯一样，被各国争相收藏--而有的则是简陋的家庭用品。有些（如十六世纪的玻璃假阳具）是女性享乐的物品，有些（拇指螺钉）是女性征服的物品。在这 101 件文物中，有被历史颂扬的女性文物，也有被历史不公平地遗忘的女性文物；有女性反叛的例子，也有女性自我揭示的例子；有鼓舞人心的文物，也有令人好奇的文物，或者（如含镭的巧克力）只是从根本上考虑不周。这本早该出版的更正本揭示了痊愈的大腿骨对文明的启示，揭示了男人对帽针的恐惧，同时也表明过去的历史总是和女性一样复杂而迷人。

This is a neglected history. Not a sweeping, definitive, exhaustive history of the world but something quieter, more intimate and particular. A single journey, picked out in 101 objects, through the fascinating, too-often-overlooked, manifold histories of women.Open up this cabinet of curiosities and you'll find objects that have been highly esteemed - even, like the Bayeux tapestry, fought over by nations - and others that are humble and domestic. Some (like a sixteenth century glass dildo) are objects of female pleasure, some (a thumbscrew) of female subjugation. There are artefacts of women celebrated by history and of women unfairly forgotten by it; examples of female rebellion and of self-revelation; objects that are inspiring, curious or (like radium-laced chocolate) just fundamentally ill-conceived.Through the variety and nuance in all these 101 objects, Annabelle Hirsch has created a new history - teeming, unexpected, witty and always illuminating. This overdue corrective reveals what a healed femur says about civilisation, what men have to fear from hat pins, and it shows that the past has always been as complicated and fascinating as the women that peopled it.
