- 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
- De selectie kookboeken, die de auteur gebruikte, varieerde van zeventiende eeuwse huishoudboeken uit Engelse landhuizen, een klassiek afro-amerikaans kookboek waarin de roots van veel traditioneel amerikaanse gerechten opgenomen zijn, tot een vijftiger jaren kookboek, speciaal voor amerikanen geschreven door een Chinese immigrante. Tenslotte kijkt Theophano naar de hedendaagse twintigste eeuwse kookboeken van Lynne Rossetto Kasper, Madeleine Kamman en Alice Waters. Zij laat zien hoe het schrijven over eten veel laat zien over het leven, het gezin en de cultuur van de schrijvers van die kookboeken.

- Wife of self-proclaimed North Pole discoverer Robert Edwin Peary, Josephine Peary was the first woman apart from the Inuit to take part in an Arctic expedition. My Arctic Journal is Peary's memoir of the time she spent, from June of 1891 to August of 1892, accompanying her husband and his exploration party across the northernmost expanses of Greenland. Peary recounts in detail the hardships of life in the frozen North, and describes at length the customs of the Inuit natives, among whom she spent a great deal of time. She also tells of her experiences hunting near the top of the world, and gives her impressions of the other members of the expedition.

- Description
- In 1817 Jan Cock Blomhoff travelled to Japan and brought with him his young wife Titia and his son. Never before did a Western woman set foot on Japanese soil and the Japanese were astonished. Author and distant relative of Titia René Bersma relates the exceptional and dramatic story of this woman who sails her own course, against all rules of precedent which governed Japanese society at that time, but in the end is forced to leave the country. Shortly after her arrival back in Holland she dies of exhaustion and sorrow. Titia's image has played an important role in the depiction of Western women in Japanese pictorial art.

- Description
- 'No more separate spheres!' explores the limitations of thinking about nineteenth-century American culture within the narrow rubric of 'male public' and 'female private' spheres. This collection examines the ways that the separate spheres binary has malingered unexamined in feminist criticism, American literary studies, and debates on the public sphere. Using American literary studies as a way to talk about changing categories of analysis, these essays discuss the work of major authors as Catharine Sedgwick, Herman Melville, Pauline E. Hopkins, Frederick Douglass, Catherine Beecher, Ralph Waldo Emerson, W.E.B. Du Bois, Sarah Orne Jewett, Nathaniel Hawthorne, and María Ampara Ruiz de Burton.
