'Materializing Gender in Eighteenth-Century Europe is a great resource for specialists in eighteenth-century European art and culture as well as those whose methodological interest in material culture studies and gender will bring them to a new focus on the eighteenth century. This fine volume of essays offers thoughtful interpretations of how gender - both masculinity and femininity - is made manifest in material goods and their representations, consistently pointing out the role of these is not only in reflecting, but also constructing the gendered self.' Denise Amy Baxter, University of North Texas, USA 'This edited volume of essays is especially welcome for its shared emphasis on men and women under the rubric of gender. It incorporates a dazzling selection of objects from across eighteenth-century Europe that includes guns, fans, silver, embroidery and furniture. With many contributions from early career scholars, the status of material culture in art historical study has never looked more buoyant.' Victoria Coltman, University of Edinburgh, UK
