Synopsis "The Cultural Construction of Hidden Spaces: Essays on Pockets, Pouches and Secret Drawers"

This essay collection focuses on enclosure, deception and secrecy in three spatial areas - the body, clothing and furniture. It contributes to the study of private life and explores the micro-history of hidden spaces. The contents of pockets may prove a surer index to their owner's real thoughts than anything they say; a piece of furniture with ingenious mechanisms created to conceal secrets may also reveal someone's attempts to break in and thus give away as much as it holds. Though the book's focus is on particular material or imagined objects, taken as a whole it exemplifies a range of interdisciplinary encounters between history, literary criticism, art history, philosophy, psychoanalysis, sociology, criminology, archival studies, museology and curating, and women's studies.
