Описание: The story of how the US women`s rights movement began at the Seneca Falls convention of 1848 is a cherished American myth. The standard account credits founders such as Elizabeth Cady Stanton and Susan B. Anthony with defining and then leading the campaign for women`s suffrage. In her provocative new history, Lisa Tetrault demonstrates that Stanton, Anthony, and their peers created and popularised this origins story in response to internal movement dynamics as well as the racial politics of memory after the Civil War.

Описание: After the Spanish-American War the United States, both by design and by accident, became involved in the Caribbean and the Far East on a scale that would have seemed highly improbable before 1898.

Описание: A pioneering Egyptologist, Flinders Petrie (1853-1942) excavated over fifty sites and trained many archaeologists. This excavation report, published in 1900, carefully documents and illustrates the findings made at the previously overlooked cemetery at Dendera. The work includes descriptions and drawings of the tombs, along with analysis of the inscriptions.
In this ambitious work Anita Levy exposes certain forms of middle-class power that have been taken for granted as "common sense" and "laws of nature." Joining an emergent tradition of cultural historians who draw on Gramsci and Foucault, she shows how middle-class hegemony in the nineteenth century depended on notions of gender to legitimize a culture-specific and class-specific definition of the right and wrong ways of being human. The author examines not only domestic fiction, particularly Emily Bront's "Wuthering Heights," but also nineteenth-century works of the human sciences, including sociological tracts, anthropological treatises, medical texts, and psychological studies. She finds that British intellectuals of the period produced gendered standards of behavior that did not so much subordinate women to men as they authorized the social class whose women met norms of "appropriate" behavior: this class was considered to be peculiarly fit to care for other social and cultural groups whose women were "improperly" gendered. When Levy reads fiction against the social sciences, she demonstrates that the history of fiction cannot be understood apart from the history of the human sciences. Both fiction and science share common narrative strategies for representing the "essential" female and "other women"--the prostitute, the "primitive," and the madwoman. Only fiction, however, represented these strategies in an idiom of everyday life that verified "theory" and "science."

Описание: From the Spanish-American War to Vietnam, this book examines how international wars have affected domestic politics and policymaking in the United States. Foreign wars have long-lasting effects that shape elections, political party ideology, the federal government`s role in society, and expansions of democratic rights.
Stages of Engagement is a compelling and wonderfully varied account of the relationship between theatre in the United States and the social, cultural, and political forces that shaped it during one of the most formative periods in the nation's history.
Joshua E. Polster applies key thematic perspectives - Colonialism, Religion, Race and Ethnicity, Gender and Sexuality, Economic Systems, and Systems of Government - to seminal moments in US history. In doing so he explores the ways in which the theatre has responded to these turning points, through the work of some of its principal dramatists, directors, designers, and theatre companies.
His approach tackles questions such as:
- How did the plays of this period reflect the nation's concerns and anxieties?
- How did theatre, culture, and politics interconnect as the United States took to the world stage?
- Which critical viewpoints are most useful to us when examining these cultural phenomena?
- How did performances and productions attempt to influence their audiences' social and civic engagement?
On its own, or in tandem with its companion volume The Routledge Anthology of US Drama 1898-1949, this is the ideal text for any course in US Theatre. By examining each cultural moment from a range of critical perspectives and drawing upon a diverse range of sources, it is designed specifically for today's interdisciplinary and multicultural curriculum.
