- Description
- Investigation of the use and function of the proverbial language in the personal relationship between the nineteenth-century feminists Elizabeth Cady Stanton (1815-1902) and Susan B. Anthony (1820-1906), and their vast correspondence, the appearance of the proverbial rhetoric in their many speeches and essays, and their innovative employment of proverbial quotations from such documents as the ‘Declaration of Independence' to further their cause. It also looks at how proverbs in their traditional wording or as innovatively changed pieces of wisdom were used to argue both for equal pay and education of women and to overcome the misogyny of the established church. A final chapter looks at how the Biblical proverb “Do unto others as you would have them do unto you†became a powerful verbal tool to justify their call for equal rights for women. These chapters are followed by an index of proverbs and proverbial expressions that are listed in their contexts with information as to their source and date.

- Description
- The authors address questions such as: What is the meaning of gender in an African context? Why does gender usually connote women? Why has gender taken hold in Africa when feminism hasn’t? Is gender yet another Western construct that has been applied to Africa? They show gender as an applied rather than theoretical tool and discuss themes such as the performance of sexuality, lesbianism, women’s political mobilization, the work of gendered NGOs, and the role of masculinity in a gendered world.
