- 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.

- The origins of the art of exotic dancing lie in English drama and Viennese opera: Oscar Wilde’s 1893 play Salome, and Richard Strauss’s 1905 opera based on it, brought onto the stage a female character who captured and dominated the audience with the raw power of her naked body. Her Dance of the Seven Veils shocked and fascinated, and Salome became a pop icon on both sides of the Atlantic. Toni Bentley explores how four influential women ( Maud Allen, Mata Hari, Ida Rubenstein and Colette ) embraced the persona of the femme fatale.

- Description
- An overview is given of how American women entered into political life and party politics before suffrage and, in many cases, completely separate from it. The author shows how women carefully and methodically learned about the issues, the candidates, and the institutions, put themselves to work, and made themselves indispensable not only to the men running for office, but to the political system overall. Described is how women slipped inside the political house in the half century between the two great waves of women's political activism and thus laid the foundation for the accelerated progress of the 1960s and 1970s, all the while building toward what may turn out to be the monumental elections of 2000.

- Description
- This book traces the lives of four women who were exceptional because they had the courage to make the best of their abilities, forging trails and breaking the barriers that separated women's spheres from those of men. A Native American woman lived from about 1700 to after 1751. She traveled with adventurer Etienne de Bourgmont and bore his child. The story of her life gives us insights into the lives of Missouri Indian women in the days of the fur trade. Pioneer Olive Boone (1783-1858) came to the Louisiana Territory as the teenage bride of Nathan Boone, guiding a skiff and their horses across the Missouri River to join the Daniel Boone family near St. Charles. For much of her married life, she stayed alone with her fourteen children while her husband traveled on lengthy hunting expeditions, supervised the Boone saltworks in present-day Howard County, and spent years in the military. Martha Jane Chisley, born a slave in 1833, was brought to northeast Missouri as a young woman. During the Civil War, Martha Jane escaped with her children to Illinois. Augustine studied in Rome and became the first nationally known African American priest. Nell Donnelly of Kansas City was a pioneering businesswoman who founded a dress company that became the world's largest, brightening the wardrobe of the 'housewife' while also creating fair working conditions for her employees. Born into an ordinary middle-class family in 1889, she achieved a success and high profile that brought its own problems

- Description
- The essays assembled here explore African women's encounters with European colonialisms. They focus on the ways in which women negotiated that range of political, economic, and social forces embraced by the term 'colonial' - from European rule, missions, taxation, and cash cropping to biomedicine, labour migration, white settlement, and racialized discourses of power.
