The Invention Of Comfort: Sensibilities & Design In Early Modern Britain & Early America by John E. Crowley
Requirements: .PDF reader, 1.2 mb
Overview: How did our modern ideas of physical comfort originate? This study demonstrates that changes in the technology of comfort depended on a fashion-conscious public being made to feel discomfort with surroundings they had previously preceived as functionally adequate. John E. Crowley shows how definitions of comfort have changed over time, beginning with a description of the material culture of heating and illumination in British and Anglo-American domestic environments during the post-medieval centuries, when comfort was primarily a modern term implying consolation and support.
