- Description
- The first part of the book examines representations of native women created by colonizing powers, assessing how these constructed images of gender and race were shaped by the ideological needs of the colonizers. The contributors look particularly at the ways in which colonizers constructed a national identity by creating a contrast with the colonial 'other,' in contexts ranging from Christian views of Islam women in medieval Spain to French beliefs about Native American women. Later contributions examine the ways in which images of gender as constructed by colonial powers impacted the lives of native women from colonial era India to Korea to Swaziland

- Description
- Klein shows in this book, that contemporary feminism, once 'disrobed' from the rhetorical garb of eauality with men, is laid bare as having a single-minded political agenda - the achievement of privilege over men. This goal, it is argued, is blatantly inconsistent with any reasonable notion of equality, and creates an insidious sexism apparent in the behavior of feminists themselves. In the final analysis, Klein urges readers to embrace a productive and healthy account of justice, merit and overall human excellence.

- Description
- This book questions the conventional wisdom of the Mediterranean Muslim woman as a passive victim of the tyranny of religion, society, and male relatives. These original essays build on a range of experiences from varied regions and periods--from medieval love poetry to popular literary sources and fatwas and legal analyses--bear witness to the fact that individual women of all social classes play pivotal roles in both the private and public realms of Arab society.

- Description
- Through readings of historically significant U.S. literary works, Emery demonstrates how fictional accounts of lesbian lives have engaged key national narratives, reexamining race, rights, private enterprise, imperialism, and other core concepts of American culture. In the process, she accumulates evidence that representations of lesbian identity are not peripheral to mainstream U.S. culture, but a crucial locus and telling index of contested American meanings.

- Description
- Focusing on Ireland, this publication provides an account of the decline of matriarchal power in Western civilization and analyzes its implications for today's women and today's Catholic Church. From the Age of Eve to the Age of Brigit, then the Age of Mary, to the Age of the Fathers, the author traces the rise of patriarchal consciousness. She traces Brigit's roles as goddess and the remnants and traces of her in the old literature: her rise as Abbess for Kildare or Christian saint: and then her demise. She shows how Brigit had a tremendous influence over the rise of Christianity.
