Consumer Sexualities explores women's experiences of shopping in
'sex shops' and using sexual commodities in their everyday lives.
This enlightening volume shows how women take up sexual consumer
'technologies of the self' to work upon and understand themselves
as confident and active sexual agents in postfeminist neoliberal
culture. In guiding the reader through the historical emergence of
sexual commodities 'for women' in feminism and postfeminism, Wood
points to the normalisation and regulation of sexual practices and
identities in and through consumption. Indeed, women's accounts
show the work involved in constructing the 'right' - knowledgeable,
tasteful, and confident - orientation to sexual consumption and, by
extension, in becoming an intelligibly 'good' sexual person. At the
same time, the author draws upon de Certeau to show how the
ordinary contexts in which sexual commodities are used can lead to
unpredictable moments of adaptation, discomfort, playfulness, and
resistance. A rich analysis of women's everyday strategies of
'making do' with the kinds of femininity and female sexuality that
sex shop culture represents, Consumer Sexualities will appeal to
scholars of sociology, cultural studies and gender studies with
interests in gender, sexuality, sex, and consumption.

This groundbreaking volume brings together scholars of the art and
archaeology of late antiquity (c. 200−1000), across cultures and
regions reaching from India to Iberia, to discuss how objects can
inform our understanding of religions. During this period major
transformations are visible in the production of religious art and
in the relationships between people and objects in religious
contexts across the ancient world. These shifts in behaviour and
formalising of iconographies are visible in art associated with
numerous religious traditions including, but not limited to,
Buddhism, Christianity, Hinduism, Islam, Judaism, Zoroastrianism,
religions of the Roman Empire, and paganism in northern Europe.
Studies of these religions and their material culture, however,
have been shaped by Eurocentric and post-Reformation Christian
frameworks that prioritised Scripture and minimised the capacity of
images and objects to hold religious content. Despite recent steps
to incorporate objects, much academic discourse, especially in
comparative religion, remains stubbornly textual. This volume
therefore seeks to explore the ramifications of placing objects
first and foremost in the comparative study of religions in late
antiquity, and to consider the potential for interdisciplinary
conversation to reinvigorate the field.

waypoints, detailed hike descriptions, maps, and easy-to-find
trailhead directions, along with excellent color photos and travel
tips. Hit the trail (or the pavement) and explore Washington!
