Paper Dolls - Katherine H Adams

Paper dolls might seem the height of simplicity-quaint but simple toys, nothing more. But through the centuries paper figures have reflected religious and political beliefs, notions of woman­hood, motherhood and family, the dictates of fashion, approaches to education, individual self-image and self-esteem, and ideas about death. This book examines paper dolls and their symbolism-from icons made by priests in ancient China to printable Kim Kardashians on the Internet-to show how these ephemeral objects have an enduring and sometimes surprising presence in history and culture.
