Описание: Engaging the theme of appearance dissatisfaction expressed by women who had undergone cosmetic surgery, and its subsequent impacts upon body image and self-perception, this study concludes that shame and narcissism are interrelated processes, whereby the evaluations and amendments to appearance, and the notions of self and social acceptance which underpin it, are negotiated.

Описание: Narcissism and Its Discontents challenges the received wisdom that narcissism is only destructive of good social relations. By building on insights from psychoanalysis and critical theory it puts forward a theorisation of narcissistic sociability which redeems Narcissus from his position as the subject of negative critique.
Описание: The thing that is most beautiful about a woman is her confidence, but her confidence is deeply rooted in her beauty and is quickly deflated by comparison. To solve this dilemma, today's society strives for flawless beauty; even the godly wrestle with feelings of determination or despair over their image, but only the Supreme Stylist can give you a makeover that lasts a lifetime He did it for many women in the Bible such as Eve, Mary and the woman at the well and their examples will inspire you to let God change you as well. Image- and life-coach Catrina Welch shares fresh insights regarding image issues that women face and the various coping mechanisms that they use. She explains the six general styles of feminine beauty and how each of them deals with confidence conflicts according to their clothing personality. Tamar and Abigail were both women in abusive relationships but they each handled their situations differently. Catrina shares why she feels one of them must have had the image identity (Img.ID) of a glamorous Romantic and the other was a sporty Natural. Understanding others and yourself is the key to confidence. Confident Beauty includes simple surveys that will guide you in assessing which Img.ID you are and general guidelines will teach you how to accentuate your individual style. These are the keys to empowering you to take care of yourself in order to forget about yourself and focus on others. Most importantly, this powerful and applicable unfolding of God's Word will reveal your Creator's heart toward your emotional, spiritual and physical beauty. This Truth is the key that will set you free to be a woman of Confident Beauty that doesn't wear off like makeup does
Описание: Fran Leeper Buss, a former welfare recipient who earned a PhD in history and became a pioneer in the field of oral history, has for forty years dedicated herself to the goal of collecting the stories of marginal and working-class U.S. women. Memory, Meaning, and Resistance is based on over 100 oral histories gathered from women from a variety of racial, ethnic, and geographical backgrounds, including a traditionalMexican American midwife, a Latina poet and organizer for the United Farm Workers, and an African American union and freedom movement organizer. Buss now analyzes this body of work, identifying common themes in women’s lives and resistance that unite the oral histories she has gathered. From the beginning, her work has shed light on the inseparable, compounding effects of gender, race, ethnicity, and class on women’s lives—what is now commonly called intersectionality. Memory, Meaning, and Resistance is structured thematically, with each chapter analyzing a concept that runs through the oral histories, e.g., agency, activism, religion. The result is a testament to women’s individual and collective strength, and an invaluable guide for students and researchers, on how to effectively and sensitively conduct oral histories that observe, record, recount, and analyze women’s life stories.

Описание:
Anthropologists travel back in time and across the globe to understand human culture--but, surprise, there is culture right here in the United States. This second edition of the best-selling textbook and anthology, Reflecting on America, again focuses on how we can recognize the common cultural thread running through diverse American phenomena--from heroin addiction and Big Business's efforts to shape the identities of children, to Civil War reenactments and the popularity of burlesque in the Midwest. In addition, this second edition includes chapters written especially for this volume on striptease, Burning Man, The Big Bang Theory TV show, and Groundhog Phil. Written throughout with verve and quirky humor, and offering "Questions for discussion" after every article, this book is perfect for undergraduate classes in anthropology and American studies. Drawing together twenty-two scholars with expertise in anthropological ideas about culture, Reflecting on America examines what it means to be American.
