AUTHOR
SUMMARY
In the nineteenth century, architects and family reformers launched promotional campaigns portraying houses no longer as simply physical structures in which families lived but as emblems for family cohesiveness and identity. Clark explains why, despite the fear of standardization and homogenization, the middle class has persisted in viewing the single-family home as the main symbol of independence as as the distinguishing sign of having achieved middle-class status.Clifford Edward Clark Jr. is the author of 'The American Family Home, 1800-1960', published 1986 under ISBN 9780807841518 and ISBN 080784151X.
