- Description
- In 2017, a routine network television investigation led Farrow, son of actress Mia Farrow and filmmaker Woody Allen. to a story about Harvey Weinstein , protected by fear, wealth, and a conspiracy of silence. As Farrow drew closer to the truth, shadowy operatives, from high-priced lawyers to elite war-hardened spies, mounted a secret campaign of intimidation, threatening his career and weaponizing an account of abuse in his own family. This is the story of the tactics of surveillance and intimidation deployed by wealthy and connected men to threaten journalists, evade accountability, and silence victims of abuse. And it's the story of the women who risked everything to expose the truth and spark a global movement of metoo.

- Rethans beschrijft het leven van de grootste internationale filmster die Nederland ooit heeft voortgebracht: Sylvia Kristel. Ze speelde in meer dan vijftig internationale films en werd met haar rol in Emmanuelle (1974) van de een op de andere dag wereldberoemd. In het ene land werd ze hét icoon van de seksuele bevrijding van de vrouw, in het andere land verketterd door de vrouwenbeweging. Sylvia Kristel had een rijk liefdesleven en had een relatie met onder anderen Hugo Claus, de vader van haar zoon Arthur. Ze kampte met drank- en drugsverslavingen, waardoor ze niet voor haar zoon kon zorgen. Nadat in haar jeugd haar ouders scheidden en Kristel zag in wat voor armoedige omstandigheden haar moeder verkeerde, dacht ze: dat nooit. Het was haar drijfveer rijk en beroemd te worden. Dat lukte – en al verloor ze al die miljoenen ook weer, ze gaf nooit op.

- What do the Catholic Church, college sports, Hollywood, prisons, the military, fraternities and politics have in common? All have extraordinarily high rates of sexual and intimate partner violence and child sexual abuse. This book looks at the problem of sexual and intimate partner violence through cases, observing the role that institutions play in facilitating and perpetuating gender based violence and provides an understanding about the ways in which institutional structures create an environment that facilitates and perpetuates gender based violence. The authors also discuss the interpersonal dimensions and individual responses to sexual violence within which the #MeToo movement has developed.

- Description
- This volume analyzes representations of the mother in francophone post-2000 literature and films in North America. Contributors reexamine the 'horrible mother' paradigm to broaden the understanding of mothering beyond traditional ideology (e.g. the working multitasking mother, the absent mother and the liberated mother). The chapters focus on the predominant theme of the mother in order to reassess questions of for example identity, guilt, heteronormativity and childlesness. They refer to works of writers or filmmakers such as Nelly Arcan, Grégoire Chabot, Marguerite Andersen and Xavier Dolan.

- Description
- This book is about Canadian women writers who were active in the 20th century – Ethel Wilson, Gabrielle Roy, Gwen Pharis Ringwood, Dorothy Livesay, and P.K. Page – as well as such forgotten writers as Grace Irwin, Patricia Blondal, and Edna Jaques. And of contemporary voices and influences of novelists Tracey Lindberg and Heather O’Neill, poets Marilyn Dumont and Leanne Betasamosake Simpson, playwrights Hannah Moscovitch and Anna Chatterton, and filmmakers Sarah Polley and Mina Shum. Writing for children as well as memoirs, autobiographies, comic books, and cookbooks illustrate the wide and impressive range of women’s talents.. .Spanning the period from the Massey Commission to the present and reflecting on the media of print, film, and song, this study attends to the women writers across genres. It explores how their work interprets our national story. The questioning, disruptive feminist practice of their fiction, filmmaking, poetry, song-writing, drama, and non-fiction reveals the tensions of colonial society at the same time as it transforms cultural life in Canada. In the back of the book you can find a timeline of world history to put in context.

- Description
- Images of female labor have powered a new movement in the European cinema of the twenty-first-century. The author analyzes how these films about female employers, from care givers to executives, capture the tension between feminist advances and their suitability by capitalism in a time of enduring transformation. Looking at various European nations, the author sees a focus on labor adapted to the different kinds of capitalism of a continent and influenced by concepts in second-wave feminism.
