- Description
- Anno 1994 is 40% van de arbeidskrachten in de meeste westerse landen vrouw. Organisaties echter hebben achtergelopen in het kapitaliseren van hun potentiëel aan vrouwelijke arbeidskrachten. Vaak wordt de 'human resource' van hun vrouwelijke managers onvoldoende aangeboord. Om concurrerend te blijven moeten leiders van organisaties de waardevolle inbreng die vrouwen in management en bestuurlijke posities hebben, effectief gebruiken. Over het geheel genomen heeft deze publikatie ten doel om een beknopt begrijpelijk overzicht te geven van de huidige internationale onderzoeksresultaten op het gebied van vrouw en management. De internationale groep van medewerkers belicht de grotere problemen en barrières, waar managers zich voor gesteld zien, de gevolgen op organisatorisch en persoonlijk vlak, en doet aanbevelingen voor veranderingen op organisatorisch en wetgevend terrein.

- Description
- Liber amicorum for Carolyn P. Collette, American professor emerita of English language and literature and a specialist in medieval literature, as she retires from Mount Holyoke College, South Hadley MA, United States. The essays gathered in this volume present considerations of the intersection of objects and gender within the cultural contexts of late medieval France and England. Some take a material view of objects, showing buildings, books, and pictures as sites of gender negotiations and extensions of women's bodies. Other reconsider the concept of objectification in the lives of fictional and historical medieval women by looking closely at their relation to gendered material objects, taken literally as women's possessions and as figurative manifestations of their desires. Contents:
Part 1: Objects and gender in a material world: The 'Thyng Wommen loven moost' : the wife of Bath's fabliau answer ['The wife of Bath's tale', 'Canterbury tales', Geoffrey Chaucer] : Zenobia's objects : The object of miraculous song in 'The prioress's tale'.
Part 2: Buildings, books, and women's (self-)fashioning: A gift from the queen : the architecture of the Collège de Navarre in Paris [the first royal college in Paris] : Anne of Bohemia and the objects of Ricardian kingship : Royal biography as reliquary : Christine de Pizan's 'Livre des fais et bonnes meurs du sage roy Charles V' : A gift, a mirror, a memorial : the psalter-hours of Mary de Bohun : 'Parchment and pure flesh' : Elizabeth de Vere, Countess of the twelfth Earl of Oxford, and her book.
Part 3: Bodies, objects, and objects in the shape of bodies: Objects of the law : the cases of Dorigen and Virginia : Galatea's pulse : objects, ethics, and Jean de Meun's conclusion : Transgender and the chess queen in Chaucer's 'Book of the duchess' : Statues, bodies, and souls : St. Cecilia and some medieval attitudes toward ancient Rome.
