Автор: Warren Robin O. Название: Women on Southern Stages, 1800-1865: Performance, Gender and Identity in a Golden Age of American Theater ISBN: 0786499273 ISBN-13(EAN): 9780786499274 Издательство: Mare Nostrum (Eurospan) Цена: 38810.00 T Наличие на складе: Есть у поставщика Поставка под заказ. Описание: Women played an integral role on the South's antebellum and Civil War stages, but theater histories have largely overlooked their contributions. Nineteenth-century southern actresses were important public figures who helped mold gendered identity in the region through their scripted theatrical roles and non-scripted social roles. Women performed stage parts selected by white men, but they subverted norms of femininity through their public personas and the independence they exercised in their everyday personal lives. Southern actresses also distinguished themselves by carving out an in-between class status. They were educated and often wealthy but never accepted by the region's landed elite. Women who performed on stage contributed to the region's small but important urban economy and frequently showed themselves to be sophisticated entrepreneurs. Actresses also helped shape racial perceptions and contributed to regional politics as the South entered the Civil War. Without actresses, there would have been no theater, which was the primary means of entertainment in the nineteenth century.

Описание: The music world exploded into Technicolor on February 9, 1964, when the Beatles appeared on the Ed Sullivan Show and ignited the music phenomenon dubbed "The British Invasion". In the weeks and months to come, hundreds, perhaps thousands, of Ottawa teenagers put away their hockey sticks and picked up guitars, starting up bands in basements and garages, with visions of screaming girls and stardom dancing in their heads. For some, that dream came true, in packed High School Gymnasiums, Church basements, bowling alleys and every other venue they could find. Groups were working three or four nights a week on both sides of the Ottawa River. The Esquires, The Staccatos, The Townsmen, Don Norman and the Other Four and many others cut records that were as good as anything coming out of Britain or the States. DJ's Gord Atkinson, Nelson Davis and Al "Pussycat" Pascal make them stars by playing their records. Sandy Gardiner followed their exploits in his weekly "teen" column in the Ottawa Journal, and we checked out the weekly "Swing Set" to get the lowdown on the newest groups.
From the day Elvis Presley came to town in 1957, to the release of The Five Man Electrical Band's mega-hit "Signs", we relive those memories with the bands, the clubs, the concerts and the colorful cast of characters who made it happen. Pull back the curtain on the magic of "Ottawa's Golden Age of Rock and Roll", ...
