- Description
- 'The lost girl' analyses a number of British writers between 1850 and 1930 and the (shifting) influence and role of the Persephone myth.. In this myth Demeter sacrificed her daughter Kore-Persephone to the God of the Dead. This book, in addition to scrutinising canonical and less well-known texts by male authors such as Thomas Hardy, E.M. Forster and D.H. Lawrence, also focusses on unjustly neglected women writers - Mary Webb and Mary Butts. The texts are also placed in relation to Victorian archaeologists, especially Jane Ellen Harrison (1850-1928), and their influence on interpretation of Hellenist myth.

Levy beargumenteert dat de opkomst van de bimbocultuur niet representatief is voor hoe ver de vrouw gekomen is, maar slechts bewijst hoe ver ze nog te gaan heeft.

- In late antiquity Christian women used to bury the remains of saints and martyrs, sometimes on land the women themselves owned. The legends of these bone gatherers launch Denzey's investigation into the experiences of third- and fourth-century Roman women based on the visual and archeological evidence they left behind in the city's catacombs. Denzey explores what these women's lives were really like as the feminine ideal shifted from pagan Rome's devoted wives to Catholic Christianity's virgin martyrs. She also analyses Pope Damasus's impact on the masculinization of Rome's sacred space, the privatization of women's roles and the end of the female tradition of bone gathering.

Ulrich tells stories about women warriors from different times and places. She contrasts Woolf’s imagined story about Shakespeare’s sister with biographies of actual women who were Shakespeare’s contemporaries. She examines how Stanton’s encounter with a runaway slave would change if the slave was at the center in stead of the white suffragist.

- Gonzalez describes the two traditions based on the creation story in Genesis 1: the vision that both men and women have been created in the image of God has been a lynchpin to feminist claims for equality in the church and society. The other tradition sees women’s claim to represent the image of God as deficient or secondary to men. Gonzalez argues that a new understanding of imago Dei in women must be rooted in a new understanding of God –grounded in, yet critical of, the Christian tradition.

- Nineteenth-century neoclassical sculpture was a highly politicized international movement. Based in Rome, many expatriate American sculptors created works that represented black female subjects in compelling and problematic ways. Examples are sculptures of black bodies in white marble. In this book of black feminist art history Nelson considers three major sculptures and explores the intersection of race, sex and class to reveal the meanings each work holds in terms of colonial histories of visual representation as well as issues of artistic production, identity, and subjectivity. She also juxtaposes these sculptures with other types of art.

- If Cleopatra's nose had been half an inch longer, neither Caesar nor Mark Antony would have fallen in love with her. A History of Human Beauty treats outstanding physical attractiveness as a quality or possession, comparable to power, intelligence, strength, wealth, education or family, that had a marked effect on history. Beauty in men and women opened opportunities to its possessors not available to the ordinary looking or ugly. While in the past women have had to use the lure of sex to achieve power or wealth, epitomised by royal mistresses or the Grandes Horizontales of the nineteenth century, modern film stars (male and female) can acquire great wealth simply by the use of their images, while attractiveness on television is an essential modern qualification for power, as shown by Ronald Reagan and Tony Blair.

- Description
- Žarkov analyzes representations of female and male bodies in the Croatian and Serbian press in the late 1980s and in the early 1990s, during the war. She argues that the Balkan war was not a war between ethnic groups, but that ethnicity was produced by the war itself. She argues that both the representational practices of the 'media war' and those of the 'ethnic war' depended on specific notions of femininity and masculinity, (hetero)sexuality and ethnicity.

- Description
- The dawn of the twentieth century in Japan witnessed the rise of a peculiar problem: the 'Woman Problem.' This, at least, was the term used in an ongoing debate among the government and various intellectuals over how to define gender roles. While the government worked hard to promote the 'good wife, wise mother' paradigm, certain female members of society had other notions about how to engage with their world. Dina Lowy focuses in this book on this new female image as it was revealed, discussed, and debated in popular newspapers and magazines in the 1910s, as well as on the lives of a specific group of women-members of the feminist literary organization known as the Seitosha. These women drew on a variety of sources, including Zen training, Western writings and ideas, and Japanese morals and arts as they tried to open up new spaces for female activity beyond the confines of the home. Lowy shows how the Seitosha set a precedent that would be emulated in the decades to follow as Japanese women continued to question the patriarchal order, experiment with alternative visions, and pursue their rights in a variety of forms.

- Description
- This is an academic book written on women and body hair, which has been seen until now as too trivial, ridiculous or revolting to write about. Even feminist writers or researchers on the body have found remarkably little to say about body hair, usually ignoring it completely. It would appear that the only texts to elaborate on body hair are guides on how to remove it, medical texts on ‘hirsutism’, or fetishistic pornography on ‘hairy’ women. The Last Taboo also questions how and why any particular issue can become defined as ‘self-evidently’ too silly or too mad to write about. Using a wide range of thinking from gender theory, queer theory, critical and literary theory, history and anthropology the contributors argue that body hair plays a central role in masculinity and femininity and cultural and sexual identities.

- Description
- Shahrazad, the legendary fictional storyteller who spun the tales of the 1,001 Arabian Nights, has long been rendered as a silent exotic beauty by Western film and fiction adaptations. Now, she talks back to present a new image of Muslim women. In this book Gauch analyzes how postcolonial writers and filmmakers from Algeria, Morocco, and Tunisia have reclaimed the storyteller in order to portray Muslim women in ways that highlight their power to shape their own destinies. Gauch demonstrates how these depictions of Shahrazad—from artists such as Moufida Tlatli, Fatima Mernissi, Tahar Ben Jelloun, Assia Djebar, Leïla Sebbar—navigate the demands of a global marketplace, even as they reshape the stories told about the Islamic world. In the face of both rising fundamentalism and proliferating Western media representations of Arab and Muslim women as silent, exploited, and uneducated victims, Gauch establishes how contemporary works of literature and film revive the voice of a long-silenced Shahrazad—and, ultimately, overthrow oppressive images of Muslim women.
