Representing Diana, Princess of Wales : cultural memory and fairy tales revisited

Publisher:	Madison, N.J. : Fairleigh Dickinson University Press, 2005.
Edition/Format:	Print book : Biography : EnglishView all editions and formats
Summary:	"In this well-illustrated text, Dr. Denney asserts that the artists who image Diana, Princess of Wales, have framed her according to a cultural memory based on traditions of royal portraiture and according to twentieth-century reassertions (that is, reframings) of the debate over feminism and femininity in visual culture. The book encompasses themes of marriage, motherhood, philanthropy, royal dress, and autobiography." "Through an examination of nineteenth- and twentieth-century paintings, photographs, engravings, and popular illustrations, the study engages a comparative visual dialogue on the imaging of royal women. Looking particularly at the nineteenth-century Princess of Wales, Alexandra (born Princess Alexandra of Denmark), the author reveals the persistence of a cultural memory in terms of the proper roles and behaviors of a princess from the nineteenth century to the twentieth century." "By looking at portraits of Diana, Princess of Wales, in conjunction with past royal portraits, the study determines that she, like Princess Alexandra before her, is conscious of tradition and employs it as a matter of survival. The book's methods in this regard include an exploration of royal portrait traditions, gender studies, popular journalism, theories on feminist biography and autobiography, as well as costume theory and history to contextualize the representation of Diana, Princess of Wales." "The text is accompanied by six color photographs, and more than 100 black-and-white illustrations."--Jacket.  Read more...
