Summary:	"Annie Holt identifies the roots of contemporary Euro-Americanpractices of costume design, in which costumes are an integrated part of thedramaturgy rather than a reflection of an individual performer's taste orstatus. She argues that in the period 1820-1920, as part of the largerproject of Modernism across the artistic and cultural field, the functionsof "clothing" and "costume" diverged. Onstage apparel took on a morespecific semiotic task, acting as a fresh channel for the flow ofinformation between the performer, the literary text, and the spectator.This book traces how five kinds of artists -- directors, performers,writers, couturiers, and painters -- made key contributions to this newmodel of costume design. Holt shows that by 1920, costume design shifted instatus from craft to art"--
