Summary
Parabola's Fall 1994 issue:
Clothing
Clothes
do
make the person. Clothed with the history of our lives, we stand before each other in economic finery, in biological array. We fear. We hate. We always put the shoe on the right foot first. Climate, language, glands, and Egg McMuffin--we are all of these. They determine who we are. Together we determine ourselves by the clothes we wear, the ideas we put on. --from "Clothed in the Beauty of Possibility"
Cover:
"The Storm" Indian miniature of
abhisarika nayika
(a woman stealing off through the monsoon to meet her lover) Punjab Hills, Goler, c. 1760-70. Copyright Worcester Art Museum, Worcester, Massachusetts.
