{"product_id":"status-and-respectability-in-the-robert-ross-9780521621229","title":"Status and Respectability in the Cape Colony, 1750-1870: A Tragedy of Manners","description":"This compelling example of the new cultural history of South Africa is a subtle and wide-ranging study of status and respectability in the colonial Cape. Focusing on domestic relationships, gender, education, and religion, it analyzes values and modes of thinking current in different social strata, arguing that these cultural factors were related to high political developments. The result is a rich account of changes in social identity that accompanied the transition from Dutch to British overrule, and the development of white racism and ideologies of resistance to white domination.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Robert Ross\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0521621224\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780521621229\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Cambridge University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/01\/1999\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 220\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.06lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.17h x 5.98w x 0.76d","brand":"Robert Ross","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44149180334335,"sku":"9780521621229","price":120.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_bc1cb73f-45f0-439f-b18c-626523429028.jpg?v=1688455263","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/status-and-respectability-in-the-robert-ross-9780521621229","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
