{"product_id":"reading-home-cultures-through-books-kirsti-salmi-niklander-9780367689131","title":"Reading Home Cultures Through Books","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis wide-ranging, comparative, and multidisciplinary collection addresses the significance of books in creating the idea of home. The chapters present cases that reveal the affective and sensory dimensions of books and reading in the practice of everyday life of individuals, in communities, and in society. The complex relationship of books, reading, and home is explored through American and European case studies both in bourgeois and middle-class homes, and in working-class and immigrant families and communities with limited possibilities for reading. The volume combines the conceptions and representations of domesticity, the materiality of reading, and library as a place, drawing on book history and material culture studies as well as anthropology and sociology of the home.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Kirsti Salmi-Niklander\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0367689138\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780367689131\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Routledge\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 02\/28\/2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 142\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.88lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.14w x 0.44d","brand":"Kirsti Salmi-Niklander","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44053073756415,"sku":"9780367689131","price":170.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_f5b8d167-f6ba-49e7-84d0-e943db780663.jpg?v=1685022249","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/reading-home-cultures-through-books-kirsti-salmi-niklander-9780367689131","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
