The glossary explores and presents seventy essential and critical terms that define the textile medium as a specific form, material, technique and metaphor from antiquity to the present. It collects contributions of inter- national specialists in the field. Each entry discusses one illustrated object which epitomizes the main concepts related to one of the volume’s keywords – from “absorption” and “abstraction” to “weaving” and “wool”. The glossary is addressed to schol- ars and students of art and architectural history and related fields as well as to artists and curators. It offers a new point of reference and departure for future research on the textile medium as such.
