Flapper Fashion In The Context Of Cultural Changes Of America In The 1920s, Soo Hyun Park
Flapper Fashion In The Context Of Cultural Changes Of America In The 1920s, Soo Hyun Park
Dissertations, Theses, and Capstone Projects
This study aimed to analyze the key characteristics of flapper fashion, which shaped the American fashion scene in the 1920s, and to review how this trend reflected the society at that time, which was changing fast in terms of the society, economy, and culture.

His historical analyses, very much tied to his time and context, led him …

Dissertations, Theses, and Capstone Projects
This thesis explores the circumstances by which Edmund Burke came to be regarded as the father of Anglo-conservatism. Conventional wisdom assumes Burke was hailed as a Conservative oracle from the moment Reflections on the Revolution in France appeared. In fact, nineteenth century Conservatives considered Burke a "Whig" who had erred on most critical issues: slavery, Crown prerogative, Ireland, empire.
In the twentieth century, however, the advent of universal suffrage and the demise of the Liberal party forced Conservatives to develop an identity which might compete with Labour's mass appeal. It also shifted the locus of Conservative ire from liberalism to …
