- Description
- The field of American women's writing is one characterized by innovation: scholars are discovering new authors and works, as well as new ways of historicizing this literature, rethinking contexts and categories. This book develops and challenges historical, cultural, theoretical, even polemical methods, all of which will advance the future study of American women writers – from Native Americans to postmodern communities, from individual careers to communities of writers and readers.

- Description
- This collection explores the impact of religion on the formation of men and masculinities in twentieth-century Britain. Religion is explored beyond the traditional boundaries of church worship and institutional structures to encompass the diverse cultures of male sexuality, home life, war, work, immigration, leisure and sectarian politics. Issues of change, such as the decline of single-sex associational settings, the theological shifts and changing fortunes of sects, the varying visibility of queer and homosexual cultures, and the shifting boundaries and collapsing distinctions between clergy and laypeople are explored in depth.

- Description
- Until recently, the figure of the medieval anchorite and the underlying ideological concepts that framed her day-to-day existence have escaped detailed examination, despite the anchorite’s importance to the study of medieval culture. This collection brings together scholars in the field of gender and anchoritic studies in order to examine anchoritic enclosure from a variety of different perspectives. In so doing, the book offers conclusions about how the phenomenon of anchoritism was affected by, and in turn, influenced contemporary

- Description
- These authors in this book try to understand Europe's post-migrant Islam on the one hand and indigenous, anti-Islamic movements on the other. They try to answer the question what impact will religion have on the European secular worldand how social and economic transitions on a transnational scale challenge ethnic and religious identifications.The new European multiculturalism calls into question the nature of boundaries between various ethnic-religious groups, as well as the demarcation lines within ethnic-religious communities.

- Description
- Feminisme. Wat bedoelen we ermee en wat kunnen we ermee? Dit boek steekt een thermometer in de samenleving om te zien hoe de stand van zaken is. Wat is er al bevochten en bereikt? Zijn er zaken die nog beter moeten? Dekt het woord 'feminisme' eigenlijk nog wel de lading? Ruim vijftig auteurs, vrouwen en mannen, geven hun visie en tonen de veelstemmigheid en veelkleurigheid van het feminisme: van de jongste generatie tot de eerste generatie feministen. De auteurs komen uit alle verschillende hoeken van de samenleving: kunstenaars, academici, wetenschappers, journalisten, activisten, et cetera. Elk facet van het feminisme wordt belicht, van lustpil tot de vraag of islam en feminisme te verenigen zijn.

- Description
- This book deals not only with 'typical' colonial empires like the British Empire, but also with those less well-studied, such as the German, Russian, Italian and U.S. empires. The focus is on various imperial formations, from colonies in Africa or Asia to settler colonial settings like Australia, New Zealand and South Africa. The book deals with key themes such as intimacy, sexuality and female education, as well as exploring aspects like the marriage regimes some empires developed or the so-called 'servant debates'. It also presents several ways in which imperial formations were structured by gender and categories like race, class, caste, sexuality, religion and citizenship.
