gift wrapping originated in Asia, with the first documented use in
China in the 2nd century BC. Japanese furoshiki, reusable wrapping
cloth, is still in use four centuries after it was first created.
Gift wrapping is one custom that has prevailed through the ages and
across the world--it should be special for both the gift giver and
recipient.
Scrapbooks have been around since printed matter began to flow into
the lives of ordinary people, a flow that became an ocean in
nineteenth-century America. Though libraries can show us the vast
archive-literally thousands of dailies, weeklies, monthlies,
quarterlies, and annuals were flooding the public once
mass-circulation was common-we have little knowledge of what, and
particularly how people read. Writing with Scissors follows
swimmers through that first ocean of print. We know that thousands
of people were making meaning out of the swirl of paper that
engulfed them. Ordinary readers processed the materials around
them, selected choice examples, and created book-like collections
that proclaimed the importance of what they read. Writing with
Scissors explores the scrapbook making practices of men and women
who had varying positions of power and access to media. It
considers what the bookmakers valued and what was valued by the
people or institutions that sheltered them over time. It compares
nineteenth-century scrapbooking methods with current techniques for
coping with an abundance of new information on the Web, such as
bookmarks, favorites lists, and links. The book is part of a
developing literature in cultural studies and book history
exploring reading practices of ordinary readers. Scholars
interested in the burgeoning field of print culture have not yet
taken full advantage of scrapbooks, these great repositories of
American memory. Rather than just using evidence from scrapbooks,
Garvey turns to the scrapbook as a genre on its own. Her book
offers a fascinating view of the semi-permeable border between
public and domestic realms, illuminating the ongoing negotiation
between readers and the press.
