- Description
- To Kill a Mockingbird—the twentieth century’s most widely read American novel—has sold thirty million copies and still sells a million yearly. Yet despite her book’s perennial popularity, its creator, Harper Lee, has become a somewhat mysterious figure. At the center of Shields’s book is the story of Lee’s struggle to create her novel, but her life contains many highlights—her girlhood as a tomboy in overalls in tiny Monroeville, Alabama: the murder trial that made her father’s reputation and inspired her great work: her journey to Kansas as Truman Capote’s ally and research assistant to help report the story of In Cold Blood.

- Description
- Auteur onderzoekt de redenen voor het NSB-lidmaatschap van vrouwen die - naar Duits voorbeeld - binnen de NSB een eigen organisatie oprichtten: de Nationaal Socialistische Vrouwen Organisatie. Zij laat zien welke vrouwen zich aangetrokken voelden tot de NSB en tot het nationaal-socialisme in het bijzonder, op welke manier zij zich inzetten in naam van 'Volk en Vaderland' en wat hen dreef om actief te blijven. Door middel van een aantal biografische portretten - van Christina Wilhelmina van Bilderbeek, freule Julia Op Ten Noort, en Olga de Ruiter-van Lankeren Matthes - laat zij de onderlinge verschillen zien tussen deze vrouwen, hun persoonlijke achtergrond, hun motivatie en hun opvattingen over het nationaal-socialisme.

- Description
- This study explores a central but neglected aspect of modern Jewish history: the problem of abandoned Jewish wives, or agunes ('chained wives')--women who under Jewish law could not obtain a divorce--and of the men who deserted them. Looking at seventeenth- and eighteenth-century Germany and then late nineteenth-century eastern Europe and twentieth-century United States, Enforced Marginality explores representations of abandoned wives while tracing the demographic movements of Jews in the West. Bluma Goldstein analyzes a range of texts (in Old Yiddish, German, Yiddish, and English) at the intersection of disciplines (history, literature, sociology, and gender studies) to describe the dynamics of power between men and women within traditional communities and to elucidate the full spectrum of experiences abandoned women faced.
figuring female transgression in modern Japanese culture

- Description
- Based on the lives and crimes of twenty real women, dokufu (poison women) narratives emerged as a powerful presence in Japan during the 1870s. During this time, as the nation moved from feudalism to oligarchic government, such accounts articulated the politics and position of underclass women, sexual morality, and female suffrage. Over the next century, the figure of the oversexed female criminal, usually guilty of robbery or murder, became ubiquitous in modern Japanese culture. In Poison Woman, Marran investigates this powerful icon, its shifting meanings, and its influence on defining women’s sexuality and place in Japan. She begins by considering Meiji gesaku literature, in which female criminality was often medically defined and marginalized as abnormal. She describes the small newspapers (koshinbun) that originally reported on poison women, establishing journalistic and legal conventions for future fiction about them. She examines zange, or confessional narratives, of female and male ex-convicts from the turn of the century, then reveals how medical and psychoanalytical literature of the 1920s and 1930s offered contradictory explanations of the female criminal as an everywoman or a historical victim of social circumstances and the press. She concludes by exploring postwar pulp fiction (kasutori), film and underground theater of the 1970s, and the feminist writer Tomioka Taeko’s take on the transgressive woman.
