Описание: Found in scores of eighteenth- and nineteenth-century American narratives, the action-adventure heroine leaves the domestic space to pursue an independent adventure. This bold heroine tramps alone through the forests, demonstrates tremendous physical strength, braves dangers without hesitation, enters the public realm to earn money, and even kills her enemies when necessary. Despite her transgressions of social norms, the narrator portrays this heroine in a positive light and lauds her for her bravery and daring. The Action-Adventure Heroine offers a wide-ranging look at this enigmatic character in eighteenth- and nineteenth-century American literature.Unlike the “tomboy” or the American frontierswoman, this more encompassing figure has been understudied until now. The action-adventure heroine has special relevance today, as scholars are forcefully challenging the once-dominant separate-spheres paradigm and offering alternative interpretations of gender conventions in nineteenth-century America. The hard-body action heroine in our contemporary popular culture is often assumed to be largely a product of the twentieth-century television and film industries (and therefore influenced by the women’s movement); however, physically strong, agile, sometimes violent female figures have appeared in American popular culture and literature for a very long time.Smith analyzes captivity narratives, war narratives, stories of manifest destiny, dime novels, and tales of seduction to reveal the long literary history of female protagonists who step into traditionally masculine heroic roles to win the day. Smith’s study includes such authors as Herman Mann, Mercy Otis Warren, Catharine Maria Sedgwick, E.D.E.N. Southworth, Edward L. Wheeler, and many more who are due for critical reassessment. In examining the female hero—with her strength, physicality, and violence—in eighteenth-and nineteenth-century American narratives, The Action-Adventure Heroine represents an important contribution to the field of American studies.

Название: Sandra Bland 2.0: Racist Policing in America ISBN: 1796077429 ISBN-13(EAN): 9781796077421 Издательство: Неизвестно Рейтинг: Цена: 22980.00 T Наличие на складе: Есть у поставщика Поставка под заказ. Описание: Sandra Bland Mattered. Why did Sandra get jail time instead of a traffic fine? Sandra Bland should be alive today working at Prairie View A&M University, her beloved alma mater, voicing her support of the Black Lives Matter movement and opinions as "Sandy Speaks." Sandra Bland 2.0: Racist Policing in America brings readers face-to-face with the root of racist policing, a crisis in America. The unjust use of police force and trigger-happy killing of blacks are commonplace in a supposedly post-racial society. Police bias and racial disparities promulgated by subcultures and other unchecked vices run rampant. Implicit or explicit racism, they're the same. Both result in racial bias and too often, the death of blacks. The Internet is a memorial gateway to hundreds of African-American victims of police violence and shootings. Some blacks don't believe America will ever become post-racial. The alt-right will never disband, white supremacists are here to stay, and racist white police officers continue to terrorize the black community. Blacks aren't disillusioned. And wishful thinking doesn't make African Americans safe. But our voices will be heard. We demand equal protection of the law. Black Lives Matter. People didn't like it when Sandra Bland and thousands of protestors shouted "Black Lives Matter." Bland fell victim to the racism she fought to eliminate. Sandra Bland's traffic stop debacle and subsequent death inside her jail cell captured the world's attention. Sandra Bland 2.0: Racist Policing in America explores Sandra Bland's convictions about racism, what happened to Bland, and America's heartbreaking panorama of racist policing. How do we ensure justice for Sandra Bland and other victims, who died needlessly during or in the aftermath of a simple traffic stop? Sandra Bland 2.0: Racist Policing in America is a protest against the victimization of African Americans and commentary about racism.

Описание: Nestled between the foothills of the Allegheny Mountains, the town that would become Holland was founded by Arthur Humphrey, Abner Currier, and Jared Scott, who traveled from Vermont by oxen in 1807 and settled in a beautiful valley that was once an Indian trail. In 1818, the town of Willink was divided into three towns: Holland, Aurora, and Wales; Holland became a township in April 1818. The town flourished and soon contained general stores, hotels, schools, and churches. Holland was a mostly agricultural community, but locals could also find work in the local mills, tannery, and spring works company. The start of the 20th century brought tragedy as the town suffered severe losses to its business district in the great fire of 1910. The following year, businesses rebuilt. This book--a celebration of Holland's history and its people--has been created to coincide with the town's bicentennial in 2018.
