Biography
Janice Helland카지노 게임 컬렉션™s research focuses on the production and consumption of hand-crafted textiles in nineteenth-century Britain and Ireland, and the cultural history/ material culture of cottage crafts. She also explores the relationship between craft and fashion, which has resulted in the single-authored book, British and Irish Home Arts and Industries 1880-1914: Marketing Craft, Making Fashion (2007) plus a number of journal articles and book chapters including: 카지노 게임 컬렉션˜Philanthropic Fashion: Ireland, 1887-1897카지노 게임 컬렉션™, Costume (2014); 카지노 게임 컬렉션˜The Craft and Design of Dressmaking, 1880-1900카지노 게임 컬렉션™ The Routledge Companion to Design Studies (2016); 카지노 게임 컬렉션˜A Gift of Lace: Queen Mary카지노 게임 컬렉션™s Coronation Train카지노 게임 컬렉션™, Textile History (2019). Additionally, she developed an interest in the relationship between benevolence and historical fair trade while working on her co-edited volume, Craft, Community and the Material Culture of Place and Politics, 19th-20th Century (2014). This direction resulted articles and book chapters and, most recently, in her participation in a UK-based project, 카지노 게임 컬렉션˜Humanitarian Handicrafts: Materiality, Development and Fair Trade, A Re-Evaluation카지노 게임 컬렉션™, the outcome of which will be an edited volume (forthcoming MUP).
