Book Synopsis Shaped for beauty by : Eleonor Bredlöv
Download or read book Shaped for beauty written by Eleonor Bredlöv and published by Linköping University Electronic Press. This book was released on 2018-09-06 with total page 87 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The aim of this thesis was to answer the question: How are vocational, gendered subjectivities produced in vocational education for the beauty industry? Drawing on Foucault and poststructural feminist theory, this question is answered in four papers, in which the material consists of beauty-school recruitment and marketing material, interviews with skin and spa therapy students and observations of practical skin and spa therapy training. These are educational arrangements that are closely bound to the economic sector of the beauty industry, and they have remained remarkably unexplored. Various aspects of subjectivity production are explored throughout these papers: Paper I shows how the potential beauty student is shaped through processes of responsibilising and individualising in recruitment; Paper II shows how a scientific and caring professional emerges; Paper III shows how students learn to adopt a critical gaze towards bodies; and Paper IV shows how students are produced as emotional workers and learners, taking Hochschild’s term “emotional labour” as a point of departure. The results show how (medical) scientific knowledge becomes a resource in the production of the skin and spa therapy professional, mobilising gender relations of power, and neglecting other types of skills and knowledge. However, relational and caring aspects of work and learning emerge in the study through the way in which wider discourses of femininity inform the ways in which students are produced as professionals. Syftet med avhandlingen var att svara på frågan: Hur produceras yrkesmässiga och könade subjekt i skönhetsbranschens yrkesutbildningar? Foucault och poststrukturalistisk feministisk teori användes för att svara på denna fråga i fyra artiklar där materialet bestod av rekryterings- och marknadsföringsmaterial gällande skönhetsutbildningar, intervjuer med hud- och spaterapeutstudenter samt observationer av praktiska lektioner i hud- och spaterapeututbildning. Dessa utbildningsarrangemang är nära sammanbundna med branschens ekonomiska sektor, men är outforskade till hög grad. Olika aspekter av subjektivitetsskapande undersöks i artiklarna: Den första artikeln visar hur den potentiella skönhetsstudenten skapas genom ansvariggörande och individualiserande processer i rekrytering; Den andra artikeln visar hur en vetenskaplig och omvårdnande professionell framträder; Den tredje artikeln visar hur hud- och spaterapeutstudenter lär sig lägga an en kritisk blick på kroppar; Den fjärde artikeln visar hur hud- och spaterapeutstudenter produceras som emotionella arbetare och lärande med utgångspunkt i Hochschilds begrepp ”emotional labour”. Resultaten i artiklarna visar hur (medicinsk) vetenskaplig kunskap blir en resurs när den professionella hud- och spaterapeuten produceras, vilket mobiliserar makt- och genusrelationer och osynliggör samtidigt andra typer av kunskaper. Relationella och omvårdnande aspekter av detta arbete och lärande framträder emellertid genom de sätt som bredare femininitetsdiskurser tas upp och mobiliseras när studenterna produceras som professionella.
Book Synopsis Jonathan Edwards and the Trinitarian Shape of Beauty by : John Cunningham
Download or read book Jonathan Edwards and the Trinitarian Shape of Beauty written by John Cunningham and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2015-06-02 with total page 352 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This dissertation is a theological analysis of the trinitarian shape of Jonathan Edwards' aesthetics of beauty. The contributions of this dissertation lie chiefly in three areas. The primary aim of this study is to advance the burgeoning field of the study of Jonathan Edwards by elucidating his views of beauty. In so doing, I present him as a rich source for the theological engagement of beauty, which could serve not only the field of Edwards studies, but also that of theological aesthetics more broadly.

Download or read book The Shape of Green written by Lance Hosey and published by Island Press. This book was released on 2012-06-11 with total page 214 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Does going green change the face of design or only its content? The first book to outline principles for the aesthetics of sustainable design, The Shape of Green argues that beauty is inherent to sustainability, for how things look and feel is as important as how they’re made. In addition to examining what makes something attractive or emotionally pleasing, Hosey connects these questions with practical design challenges. Can the shape of a car make it more aerodynamic and more attractive at the same time? Could buildings be constructed of porous materials that simultaneously clean the air and soothe the skin? Can cities become verdant, productive landscapes instead of wastelands of concrete? Drawing from a wealth of scientific research, Hosey demonstrates that form and image can enhance conservation, comfort, and community at every scale of design, from products to buildings to cities. Fully embracing the principles of ecology could revolutionize every aspect of design, in substance and in style. Aesthetic attraction isn’t a superficial concern — it’s an environmental imperative. Beauty could save the planet.
Book Synopsis The Evolution of Beauty by : Richard O. Prum
Download or read book The Evolution of Beauty written by Richard O. Prum and published by Anchor. This book was released on 2017-05-09 with total page 436 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A FINALIST FOR THE PULITZER PRIZE NAMED A BEST BOOK OF THE YEAR BY THE NEW YORK TIMES BOOK REVIEW, SMITHSONIAN, AND WALL STREET JOURNAL A major reimagining of how evolutionary forces work, revealing how mating preferences—what Darwin termed "the taste for the beautiful"—create the extraordinary range of ornament in the animal world. In the great halls of science, dogma holds that Darwin's theory of natural selection explains every branch on the tree of life: which species thrive, which wither away to extinction, and what features each evolves. But can adaptation by natural selection really account for everything we see in nature? Yale University ornithologist Richard Prum—reviving Darwin's own views—thinks not. Deep in tropical jungles around the world are birds with a dizzying array of appearances and mating displays: Club-winged Manakins who sing with their wings, Great Argus Pheasants who dazzle prospective mates with a four-foot-wide cone of feathers covered in golden 3D spheres, Red-capped Manakins who moonwalk. In thirty years of fieldwork, Prum has seen numerous display traits that seem disconnected from, if not outright contrary to, selection for individual survival. To explain this, he dusts off Darwin's long-neglected theory of sexual selection in which the act of choosing a mate for purely aesthetic reasons—for the mere pleasure of it—is an independent engine of evolutionary change. Mate choice can drive ornamental traits from the constraints of adaptive evolution, allowing them to grow ever more elaborate. It also sets the stakes for sexual conflict, in which the sexual autonomy of the female evolves in response to male sexual control. Most crucially, this framework provides important insights into the evolution of human sexuality, particularly the ways in which female preferences have changed male bodies, and even maleness itself, through evolutionary time. The Evolution of Beauty presents a unique scientific vision for how nature's splendor contributes to a more complete understanding of evolution and of ourselves.

Download or read book Beauty Imagined written by Geoffrey Jones and published by OUP Oxford. This book was released on 2010-02-25 with total page 432 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The global beauty business permeates our lives, influencing how we perceive ourselves and what it is to be beautiful. The brands and firms which have shaped this industry, such as Avon, Coty, Estée Lauder, L'Oréal, and Shiseido, have imagined beauty for us. This book provides the first authoritative history of the global beauty industry from its emergence in the nineteenth century to the present day, exploring how today's global giants grew. It shows how successive generations of entrepreneurs built brands which shaped perceptions of beauty, and the business organizations needed to market them. They democratized access to beauty products, once the privilege of elites, but they also defined the gender and ethnic borders of beauty, and its association with a handful of cities, notably Paris and later New York. The result was a homogenization of beauty ideals throughout the world. Today globalization is changing the beauty industry again; its impact can be seen in a range of competing strategies. Global brands have swept into China, Russia, and India, but at the same time, these brands are having to respond to a far greater diversity of cultures and lifestyles as new markets are opened up worldwide. In the twenty first century, beauty is again being re-imagined anew.
