Описание: Why is the story of romance in books, magazines, and films still aimed at women rather than at men? Even after decades of feminism, traditional ideas and messages about romantic love still hold sway and, in our “postfeminist” age, are more popular than ever. Increasingly, we have become a culture of romance: stories of all kinds shape the terms of love. Women, in particular, love a love story. The Glass Slipper is about the persistence of a familiar Anglo-American love story into the digital age. Comparing influential classics to their current counterparts, Susan Ostrov Weisser relates in highly amusing prose how these stories are shaped and defined by and for women, the main consumers of romantic texts. Following a trajectory that begins with Jane Austen and concludes with Internet dating sites, Weisser shows the many ways in which nineteenth-century views of women’s nature and the Victorian idea of romance have survived the feminist critique of the 1970s and continue in new and more ambiguous forms in today’s media, with profound implications for women. More than a book about romance in fiction and media, The Glass Slipper illustrates how traditional stories about women’s sexuality, femininity, and romantic love have survived as seemingly protective elements in a more modern, feminist, sexually open society, confusing the picture for women themselves. Weisser compares diverse narratives—historical and contemporary from high literature and “low” genres—discussing novels by Jane Austen and Charlotte Brontë, Victorian women’s magazines, and D. H. Lawrence’s Lady Chatterley’s Lover; Disney movies; popular Harlequin romance novels; masochistic love in films; pornography and its relationship to romance; and reality TV and Internet ads as romantic stories.Ultimately, Weisser shows that the narrative versions of the Glass Slipper should be taken as seriously as the Glass Ceiling as we see how these representations of romantic love are meant to inform women’s beliefs and goals. In this book, Weisser’s goal is not to shatter the Glass Slipper, but to see through it.

Описание: What instinctive tendencies etched into our subconscious minds drive us to behave in ways that cause us pain and suffering? How can we transcend those tendencies? Why do educated women repeatedly revert to outdated patterns of relating to men--even as ancient patriarchal systems (and the fairy tales perpetuating them) are clearly crumbling? Through the author's ongoing quest to delve into wide-ranging explorations of body, mind, and spirit--discovering along the way that many theories, practices, and neuroscience itself have been evolving in fascinating ways, these concepts and their constant interplay offer the clues that ultimately answer these questions. Carefully researched, Happily Ever After... Right Now uniquely combines spiritual, scientific, and practical information for charting a new course towards confidence, empowerment, self-love, and joy. Written with spirit and spunk Luann Robinson Hull interweaves her personal stories while providing a three-part-framework of education, awareness, and transformation for how to live a happy life today, not someday in the future. Happily Ever After ... Right Now guides us to explore our thoughts and behaviors with soulful inquiries, meditations, and exploratory exercises in each chapter, and reveals the source of relationship challenges by showing step-by-step how to unravel the patterns, habits, and cycles that have kept us from living our best life, whether or not we are in a committed relationship. Now ask yourself, are you ready to put fairy tales behind you and unleash your potential to thrive across all areas of your life as the person you have always desired to be? Then let's get started Editorial Review This book of Luann Robinson Hull's is a stunning hit between the eyes. She has complete command of her subject matter, expertly navigating us through waters we probably didn't even know were treacherous. Not once does she lose sight of her destiny using feminine power and finesse to enlighten us of this mysterious abyss called relationship. Though her target audience may appear to be women, Happily Ever After...Right Now provided me with insight and clarity into something I gave up trying to comprehend long ago. She reminded me not only of what I seek in a partner but helped me set off on the journey of reclaiming the man I have always wanted to be. --Branden Blinn, The Branden Blinn Media Group

Seeking Love in Modern Britain charts the emergence of the modern British single through an account of the dating industry that sprang up to serve men and women. It shows how - amid a period of unprecedented sexual and social change - 'the single' became a key unisex identity and lifestyle.
From around 1970, a growing, cottage-style matchmaking industry in Britain was offering the romantically solo a choice between computer dating firms, such as Dateline or Compudate, introduction agencies and the lonely hearts pages of Private Eye, Time Out and others. Zoe Strimpel reveals how this rapidly expanding landscape of services was catering to a new breed of single people, and how - by the late 1990s - singleness had become the culturally mainstream, wholly expected part of the romantic life cycle that it is today. Refuting the widespread idea that the Internet invented modern dating, this book uses an eclectic and engaging range of first-person accounts and snapshots from the time to show that the story of contemporary romance, mediated courtship and singleness began in a time long before Tinder.
