Krátky popis
‘This ad is gender neutral’, proclaimed a 2016 poster for the
fashion brand Diesel, ‘I resist definitions’, announced a Calvin
Klein ad in the same year, while a Louis Vuitton shoot featured
Jaden Smith, son of actor Will Smith, wearing a skirt like a
natural. Fashion magazines have printed countless features on the
blurring of gender barriers, while brands including Yves
Saint-Laurent, Gucci, Burberry, Givenchy and Dolce &,amp,
Gabbana have all interpreted the concept ‘girls will be boys and
boys will be girls’ in their own individual style. The previous
turn of the century was as obsessed with androgyny as this one, as
seen in the art of Edward Burne-Jones and Gustave Moreau, and the
writings of Oscar Wilde and the mystic Joséphin Péladan. From the
late 19th to the early 21st century, the genders have blended: from
Berlin in the 1920s to Hollywood of the 1930s with Garbo to
Dietrich, from the 1940s Bright Young Things to the androgynous pop
stars of the 1970s, and beyond.&,nbsp,What do these variations
on a theme have in common? What has caused the dizzying rise of
androgyny? Why has this concept, a staple of ancient myth that was
first discussed in Plato’s&,nbsp,Symposium, been revived today?
Accompanied by a striking selection of contemporary photographs,
Patrick Mauries presents a condensed cultural history of androgyny,
drawing on the worlds of art and literature to give us a deeper
understanding of the strange but timeless human drive to escape
from defined categories.Table of ContentsIntroduction • 1. The
