Fryslân yn de Gouden Iuw
€ 49,90
Hoe seach Fryslân der yn de Gouden Iuw út? Wat hat tusken 1585 en 1685 it ûnderskiedende west fan Fryslân binnen de Republyk? Fryslân ûnderskiede him fan de oare gewesten troch in eigen steedhâlder, in bloeiende akademy en troch in taal.
Lju út de boargerij koenen foar it earst in foarnaam plak fine yn de maatskippij en waarden sa diel fan de regintemacht. In nije, ûnôfhinklike steatsfoarm koe opboud wurde. Mar om 1620-1630 hinne waard yn reginterûnten eigenbelang boppe publyk belang steld en de ekonomyske efterútgong fan 1650 ôf makke dat doe in iuwen duorjende statyske stannemaatskippij ûntstie.
De Gouden Iuw wie foar Fryslân in bloeiperioade dy’t noait mear neifolging krige.

Cache-sexe
€ 34,90This book asks why humans through history have covered their genitals and worn a cache-sexe. Does the cache-sexe merely provide protection, or is it an instrument to draw attention? Can the cache-sexe be used to stimulate certain thoughts? Why does not wearing a cache-sexe provoke shame one society but not in another? Are nudity and nakedness the same?
On his quest to answer these questions, the author takes the reader on a review of the anatomy of the female and male genitals and reflects on how this part of the human body has been perceived over time and in various cultures. The different types of male and female cache-sex are discussed with reference to comprehensive illustrations based on unique and sometimes previously unpublished examples of cache-sexes and photographic documentation. The book also pays attention to the covering of the ‘backside’. Following this 360° exploration of the use of the cache-sexe, the place of the cache-sexe in art and fashion is uncovered.
