Connally Gilliam explores what it means to live in a world for which her mother never could have prepared her. Through this collection of thoughtful, honest, and humorous memoirs, the author delves into what it really means to be “the remainder” in a world that caters to couples, and what it means to be the one who lives out moral values that her peers think died in the sixties. As readers walk with Connally through each humorous and poignant experience, they will discover that God doesn't promise happiness somewhere in the future, but abundant life in the here and now.

No one is like you. When I was a girl, I had no idea what it meant to be a strong woman or even a strong girl, because I wasn't getting that message from my family and my teachers. I grew up with low self-esteem issues and a whole lot of insecurity left over from childhood.
I blocked myself from who I truly am through my low self-esteem and disempowering behaviors that had learned from the culture I grew up in and from my early life programming. I didn't want to live that way anymore and as I studied psychology and becoming a writer, I knew I had to use my own voice to make an impact, to show the women of this world that we all deserve to have the power that we want and to create the lives we feel we deserve.
My book, BE A STRONG WOMAN: Stop Self-Sabotage, was my op-ed about what we do as a culture to disempower ourselves and disempower each other when we should be helping each other become stronger women.
Take this journey with me and learn what being a strong woman is all about

Описание: Published in 1892, A Voice from the South is the only book published by one of the most prominent African American women scholars and educators of her era.

Cooper became a prominent member of the black community in Washington, D.C., serving as principal at M Street High School, during which time she wrote A Voice from the South. In it, she engages a variety of issues, including women's rights, racial progress, segregation, and the education of black women. Cooper also discusses a number of authors and their representations of African Americans, including Harriet Beecher Stowe, Albion Tourgee, George Washington Cable, William Dean Howells, and Maurice Thompson, reaching the conclusion that an accurate depiction had yet to be written.

Автор: Faxneld Per Название: Satanic Feminism: Lucifer as the Liberator of Woman in Nineteenth-Century Culture ISBN: 0190664479 ISBN-13(EAN): 9780190664473 Издательство: Oxford Academ Рейтинг: Цена: 48570.00 T Наличие на складе: Есть у поставщика Поставка под заказ. Описание: The notion of woman as the Devil`s accomplice is prominent throughout Christian history and was used to legitimize the subordination of wives and daughters. In the nineteenth century, rebellious females performed counter-readings of this misogynist tradition and Lucifer was reconceptualized as a feminist liberator. Per Faxneld shows how this surprising Satanic feminism was expressed in a wide range of nineteenth-century texts and artistic productions.

Автор: Athalya Brenner-Idan Название: The Israelite Woman: Social Role and Literary Type in Biblical Narrative ISBN: 0567657736 ISBN-13(EAN): 9780567657732 Издательство: Bloomsbury Academic Рейтинг: Цена: 25330.00 T Наличие на складе: Есть у поставщика Поставка под заказ. Описание: In the first edition of The Israelite Woman Athalya Brenner-Idan provided the first book-length treatment by a feminist biblical scholar of the female characters in the Hebrew Bible. Now, thirty years later, Brenner provides a fresh take on this ground-breaking work, considering how scholarly observation of female biblical characters has changed and how it has not. Brenner-Idan also provides a new and highly personal introduction to the book, which details, perhaps surprisingly to present readers, what was at stake for female biblical scholars looking to engage honestly in the academic debate at the time in which the book was first written. This will make difficult reading for some, particularly those whose own views have not changed.
The main part of the book presents Brenner-Idans's now classic examination of the roles of women in the society of ancient Israel, and the roles they play in the biblical narratives. In Part I Brenner-Idan surveys what can be known about the roles of queens, wise women, women poets and authors, prophetesses, magicians, sorcerers and witches and female prostitutes in Israelite society. In Part II the focus is on the typical roles in which Hebrew women appear in biblical stories, as mother of the hero, as temptress, as foreigner, and as ancestress. In these narratives, for which there are standard plots and structures and characterizations readily available, women play a generally domestic role.
Not only is the book a highly valuable resource detailing the social role of women in ancient Israel, and showing how the interpretation of women in the bible has been influenced by convention, but it is also a challenging reminder of how outdated attitudes can still prevail.
