Abstract
The two-day workshop [International PhD and Postdoctoral Workshop, 27-28th November 2014, University of Warwick] at the University of Warwick brought together early career researchers studying various aspects of textile history – production, consumption, trade, fashion, and design – with the aim of drawing broader conclusions about the role of textiles and clothing in the development of societies, cultures and economies.
The methodological and geographical breadth of the presented research holds a promise that in the near future we will be presented with a much more global picture of textile production, consumption and trade in the early modern period.

I know. I do not normally put images into references to journals but I could not resist this!
Early modern period, for those who like me are not sure, spans approximately 300 years from 1500 (Wikipedia).
