Sinossi

Dress Code Traditions explores the profound connection between clothing and cultural values, revealing how our sartorial choices reflect identity, status, and heritage. The book examines the historical evolution of dress codes, uncovering how major historical events, like wars and industrialization, have significantly shaped fashion trends. Clothing serves as a non-verbal language, communicating societal norms and beliefs, and the book delves into the symbolic meanings embedded in what we wear. 

 
This exploration begins with an overview of fashion history, progressing through case studies that analyze dress codes across various cultures and periods. Discover how clothing has been used not only for conformity but also as a form of rebellion and cultural preservation. The book uniquely examines dress codes as expressions of cultural resistance, challenging conventional notions of fashion as merely commercial. 

 
The book draws from diverse sources, including historical documents and ethnographic studies. Ultimately, Dress Code Traditions encourages readers to consider the ethical implications of fashion consumption and the importance of preserving cultural heritage through clothing, making it valuable for students, fashion enthusiasts, and anyone interested in the intersection of clothing and culture.

    Living With My Century - A Memoir

    Professor Eda Sagarra, born in 1933, has been a significant and influential figure in Irish and European academic policy-making, contributing to the early development of the Erasmus scheme. Now, aged nearly 88, this memoir gives striking evidence of her self-discipline and formidable energy. This substantial memoir by one of the foremost female academics in Ireland starts with Sagarra's own perspective on committing her life story to history during the pandemic lockdown of 2020:
    The following memoir recalls for those born in the present century and schooled without the strong sense of Irish history, which defined our people from the Great Famine of the 1840s until recent times, what it was like to grow up as a woman in the twentieth century and seek a career in a man's world. It tries to re-capture as much what it felt like to the person experiencing it as what was happening in society. Younger people today who read of the restrictions to which women were subject in the 1930s, 1940s and 1950s, will find it difficult to comprehend why our generation and the one that followed ours didn't challenge them. But probably the greatest contrast between the Ireland of then and now was the room for manoeuvre – or rather the absence of it. Today our lives are premised on a constantly changing world. Ireland is more connected across the globe than ever it was. Today most people are mobile. The Ireland when I was young was in almost every respect a static, hierarchical and paternalist society, one in which the accident of your birth would generally determine your whole life. No life is representative, but every person's experience is unique and worth recording for those who come after us. 
    A south Dublin convent girl, Sagarra probes childhood and family, schooling, and UCD — with a perceptive commentary on the Ireland of the 1930s and 1940s. Her remarkable memory and shrewd eye for detail present at times a painfully honest account of family and in the upper middle-class world of Catholic south Dublin, revealing the profound influence of Europe during her postgraduate years in post-war Germany, Switzerland and Austria.
    Running through this forensic account of her academic life is a keen awareness of the constant if subtle barriers to female advancement.
    
    For contemporary critics reconstructing the history of gender equality in Ireland and for readers of feminist history, this makes for essential reading. Her description of retirement since 1998 is colourful, poignant and revealing, and her reflections on old age and youth resonate.
