- Description
- Description of the evolution of the relationship between urban life and homosexuality over the past two centuries, tracing how homosexuals have simultaneously become model citizens of the modern city and avatars of the urban. Exploring the lives of prominent gay men and women, literary depictions of gay city life, classic works of urban theory and the rhetoric of political reformers, the author examines what it means to be metropolitan and what it means to be queer. She juxtaposes works from writers such as Balzac and Baudelaire, Henry James and James Baldwin, Walter Benjamin and Jane Jacobs to redefine familiar urban types such as the flaneur, the prostitute and the drag queen.

- Description
- This guidebook is the first architectural-design guide devoted specifically to women's works in Europe. It offers itineraries through four cities: Barcelona (Spain), Lisbon (Portugal), Paris (France), Turin (Italy), and two countries: The Netherlands and Slovenia. The selection of works showcase different types of works created or recreated by women in the twentieth and twenty-first centuries: residential and industrial buildings, educational, religious, commercial and transport buildings, power stations, medical and care centres, cinemas, theatres, museums, offices and banks, sports halls and stadiums, playgrounds and gardens. Each itinerary is preceded by a description of the urban historical context and its transformations. Each work is identified with the name in English and the national language, the author(s) of the work, year(s) of creation, address and photo. All geographical sections are completed by a short biographical article on women pioneers: Maria Keil (1914-2012), Charlotte Perriand (1903-1999), Ada Bursi (1906-1996), Margaret Kropholler (1891-1966), Gizela Suklje (1909-1994). This publication is the result of the Women's creativity since the Modern Movement - MoMoWo project, that considers an issue of contemporary cultural, social and economic importance from a European and interdisciplinary perspective namely women's achievements in the design professions. These achievements are in fields including architecture, civil engineering, urban planning, landscape design, interior design, furniture and furnishing design some of which are still perceived as traditionally male professions. The contents of this book are the results of academic research that was based on archives, bibliographic sources and 'in situ', in order to analyse building structures, techniques and materials. Also avaiblable as open-access publication on the website of MoMoWo.

- Description
- This volume covers the country from Cork to Belfast, from 1914 up to the early 2000s. Half of the book is devoted to Northern Ireland and to the second part of the twentieth century. The chapters describe the participation of women in war, the portrayal and non-portrayal of women in war, their experiences of war and the consequences they suffered. This book is not only about women fighting, it is also about how war and warlike situations affected women of all types and classes and their children: prostitutes, rural women, urban women, protestant women, Catholic women, writers, dramatists, artists, journalists, women in the peace movement, feminists, free women and imprisoned women. The thirteen chapters include two articles on the First World War, about 'The Women's Legion'- a women's voluntary organization, and one about the poet and writer Winifred Letts and her responses to the war. Two articles on the Irish War of Independence are concerned with representation and portrayals of women involved in the nationalist cause. The Second World War is the subject of three articles, about prostitutes, babies and rural women.
