  • Silk Ways - Ancient Threads and Modern Networks
    Silk ways - Ancient threads and modern networks By Ole Zethner and Rie Koustrup Koustrup & Co. 2007 Raw English translation of Danish text “Silkens veje – gamle tråde og nye netværk” by Ole Zethner. Numbers placed after each chapter refer to page numbers in the book. 1 Introduction Page 5 In more than 5.000 years people have found it pleasant to wear clothes of silk. Silk is cool in the summer, warm in the winter, but always comfortable. It is light, but at the same time strong, and the skin can breathe through silk. And silk is delightful for the eye – and for the fingers. Natural silk is spun by larvae of the silk moth. When the larva is going to pupate, is spins a case of silk around itself. Inside this case, the cocoon, the larva develops into a pupa and at last - if it is permitted to do it - into an adult moth. Often the larvae are called silk worms. However, zoologically the larvae have nothing to do with worms, as the moths are insects. Hence, we use the name silk larvae. Apart from a short description of wild silk butterflies, this book is about the mulberry silk moth, who’s larvae feed on leaves of the mulberry tree. The nature photographer Gerth Hansen has photographed the biological development, and the most important part-processes of silk production and the particular qualities of silk are accounted for. The WAYS OF SILK tells about the geographical silk roads, along which the silk was dispersed. Also, the importance of silk in the history of civilisation is treated.

  • Dictionary of Textiles by Harmuth Louis
    PICTIONI\RY GIFT OF J DICTIONARY OF TEXTILES B Y LOUIS HARMUTH FASHION EDITOR OF "WOMEN'S WEAR" 1915 FAIRCHILD PUBLISHING COMPANY NEW YORK FAIRCHILD PUBIISHING CO, Copyright 1915. PREFACE The tendency in modern books of a technical character undoubtedly in- clines very strongly toward encyclopedic and dictionary forms. The cry for the saving of lime calls for books in compact form with information handy at a moment's notice. The present DICTIONARY is the result of 7'/2 years of collecting and compiling information, gained to a large extent in connection with my work on the Daily Trade Record and Women's Wear. With over 6,600 terms and definitions contained in it, this DICTIONARY is as nearly com- plete, in number of terms strictly relating to textile fibres and fabrics, as it is possible for a work of this kind to be. It was my desire to present in the DICTIONARY and within as small compass as practical the largest number of terms and definitions possible, re- lating to textiles from the fibres to the finished fabrics and everything which goes into them in the course of the manufacture. An interesting part of the DIC- TIONARY contains names of fabrics, now obsolete, with as complete a de- scription of their character as it was possible to find in various old laws, wills, lists and in the technical literature. Owing to the fact that manufacturers con- stantly have recourse to some obsolete fabric in search of new effects, details of manufacturing and finishing of such materials ought to be interesting.

Drawing from literature on comparative capitalism which focuses on the processes of production, this dissertation examines markets through deconstructing production to the level of specific commodities. It utilizes a value chain framework by beginning with the cultivation of cotton, wool and silk agricultural commodities, and tracing them through China’s textile and garment industries and into domestic and foreign trade.
