Transcendentalism remains the most important literary and philosophical movement to have originated in the United States. Most accounts of it trace its emergence to a group of intellectuals dissatisfied with their religious, literary, and social culture. Yet there is a forgotten history of transcendentalism that features women who were central to the development of the movement. Bright Circle is intended to reorient our understanding of transcendentalism. It recounts the lives of Mary Moody Emerson, Elizabeth Palmer Peabody, Sophia Peabody Hawthorne, Lydia Jackson Emerson, and Margaret Fuller.

Women were there. For centuries, discussions of early Christianity have focused on male leaders in the church. But there is ample evidence right in the New Testament that women were actively involved in ministry, at the frontier of the gospel mission, and as respected leaders. Nijay Gupta calls us to bring these women out of the shadows by shining light on their many inspiring contributions to the planting, growth, and health of the first Christian churches.

Kvinder - i hvert fald i de førende kredse - kunne omkring år 1800 leve et meget friere liv end deres formødre. Det blev kun en lille tidslomme med frihed, for allerede omkring 1825 begynder mulighederne igen at lukke sig. Man skulle helt ind i det 20. århundrede, før kvinder igen for alvor kunne sprænge grænser og leve selvstændigt. Der er opstået en del misforståelser omkring denne frie periode, og Maria Helleberg vil med VILDE KVINDER, MILDE KVINDER vise, hvor overskridende der (også) blev levet i guldalderens borgerlighed. Her er i levende biografisk form tolv kvindeliv fra guldalderen.

For over eighty years, tourists have flocked to Natchez, Mississippi, seeking the "Old South," but what they encounter is invention: a pageant and rewrite of history first concocted during the Great Depression. Paul Hardin Kapp explores how meaning is assigned to place and how meaning evolves over time. In showing how and why the Natchez buildings of the "Old South" were first preserved, commercialized, and transformed into a brand, this volume makes a much-needed contribution to debates over the meaning attached to cultural patrimony.

This amazingly wise and nimble collection investigates the horrors inflicted on so-called “witches” of the past.

It is 1887 in Amsterdam, and Johanna Bonger wants to do something different with her life than teaching, translating languages, and managing the back office of her father’s business.

It’s not news that women have been denied the same educational and institutional opportunities, resources, and access as men, and that science’s history is often told through the stories of great men, with a few great women making an appearance here and there. But that approach misses the big picture. The history of science isn’t complete without women.

No se entiende a Cleopatra sin César ni Marco Antonio, ni a Helena de Troya sin Paris, ni a Frida Kahlo sin Diego Rivera, ni a Simone de Beauvoir sin Jean-Paul Sartre o a Virginia Woolf sin Leonard Woolf... Este libro es un relato personal, un viaje a través de mis inquietudes y lecturas, mi encuentro con historias protagonizadas por mujeres, ya sean reales o criaturas literarias, sin olvidar el papel de los hombres que estuvieron cerca de ellas, para bien o para mal.

La herencia de las mujeres resulta tan rica, tan diversa y aún hoy día tan desconocida que desborda la manera convencional de contarla. Al igual que las mujeres han encontrado huecos para sobrevivir o imponerse, para escribir o pintar, para llegar a la educación o al poder, para que el dolor disminuyera o el trabajo resultara más liviano, es preciso que la historia que las estudia recurra a miradas y a formatos nuevos.

Da Agrippina a Sarah Bernhardt, da Trotula de Ruggiero a Jackie Kennedy, da Caterina la Grande a Rita Levi-Montalcini, da Isabella d'Este Gonzaga a Emmeline Pankhurst, da Elisabetta I Tudor ad Anna Magnani, "Le Indomabili" sono state donne rivoluzionarie, ribelli e audaci, che hanno infranto tabù, scardinato regole, sovvertito consuetudini. Indomite, impavide, inarrendevoli, hanno vissuto controvento e agito controcorrente, hanno lottato, e all'occorrenza disubbidito, per realizzare sogni, perseguire ideali, affermare la propria identità.

As we grow and move through the world, it shrinks us and puts us in boxes - tells us who we should be, what we're capable of, and who to love.

To have confusing, disparate identities, none of them fitting traditional ideas of worth, power or success.

In The Once and Future Sex, Janega unravels the restricting expectations on medieval women and the ones on women today. She boldly questions why, if our ideas of women have changed drastically over time, we cannot reimagine them now to create a more equitable future.
