Описание:
Portraits of 22 extraordinary women whose lives have made, and continue to make, a lasting impact on our world.
They are saints, mystics, martyrs, reformers, poets, missionaries, environmentalists, and mothers from diverse cultures and countries.
Here are women upon whose shoulders all women stand. Here are their amazing stories, with haunting reflections by the poet Edwina Gateley and revealing biographies and drawings by Sandra Mattucci.
In her role as devoted wife, the Hindu goddess Parvati is the divine embodiment of viraha, the agony of separation from one's beloved, a form of love that is also intense suffering. These contradictory emotions reflect the overlapping dissolutions of love, family, and mental health explored by Sarah Pinto in this visceral ethnography. Daughters of Parvati centers on the lives of women in different settings of psychiatric care in northern India, particularly the contrasting environments of a private mental health clinic and a wing of a government hospital. Through an anthropological consideration of modern medicine in a nonwestern setting, Pinto challenges the dominant framework for addressing crises such as long-term involuntary commitment, poor treatment in homes, scarcity of licensed practitioners, heavy use of pharmaceuticals, and the ways psychiatry may reproduce constraining social conditions. Inflected by the author's own experience of separation and single motherhood during her fieldwork, Daughters of Parvati urges us to think about the ways women bear the consequences of the vulnerabilities of love and family in their minds, bodies, and social worlds.

Описание: Based on long-term ethnographic fieldwork among Tongan migrant mothers and adult daughters in Australia, anthropologist Makiko Nishitani provides a unique account of how gifts, money, and information flow along the connections of kin and kin-like relationships. Desire, Obligation, and Familial Love challenges the conventional discourse on migration, which typically characterizes intergenerational changes from tradition to modernity, from relational to individual, and from obligation to autonomy and freedom. Rather, through an intimate examination of Tongan women's everyday engagement with kinship relationships, Nishitani highlights how migrant women and their daughters born outside Tonga together create a field of relationships with kin and kin-like people, and navigate between individualistic, personal desires and familial duties and obligations. Their negotiations are not limited to a local frame of reference, but encompass vast distances, including relationships with relatives in places like Australia, New Zealand, the United States, and the "home" island nation. Tongan women manage these relationships across diverse modes of communication: face-to-face interactions in homes and at church, lengthy telephone conversations on fixed phone lines in kitchens, and interactions on social media accessed on living room computers shared between neighboring households.Relationships between migrant mothers and second-generation daughters are suffused with warmth and empathy, as well as tensions and misunderstandings. Nishitani's work demonstrates the critical contemporary relevance of classical anthropological kinship studies and gift theories as tools that can help us to understand transnationalism in the "digital" age. Through reflections on feminist geography, social theory of technology, Bourdieu's field theory, and media studies, Nishitani makes a convincing call for anthropologists to use relationships rather than geographical places as a site of anthropological fieldwork in order to understand the sociality of diasporic people.Filled with rich, intimate portrayals of diasporic women's everyday lives and the everyday politics of familial relationships, Desire, Obligation, and Familial Love will appeal to students and scholars of the anthropology of migration, of communication technologies and social media, and of gender and familial relationships, as well as to those interested in fieldwork methodology, transnational and migration studies, and Pacific studies.
Описание: In this comprehensive history of the Daughters of the American Revolution (DAR), one of the oldest and most important women`s organisations in United States history, Simon Wendt shows how the DAR`s efforts to keep alive the memory of the nation`s past were entangled with and strengthened the nation`s racial and gender boundaries.
In her book Daughters of Eve, Lyn Packer delves deep into Scripture to discover God's heart and intent for women. She also explores history, both in society and in the church, to expose how far we have wandered from that original plan and presents us with a clear pathway back. In doing so she establishes herself as an inspirational and prophetic voice that calls us back to God's original plan for mankind - both women and men. That plan is glorious, and God is calling us today to rediscover and walk in the fullness of it.
Lyn also shares her personal journey from a childhood of abuse, to being suppressed within the church, (the story of many women worldwide), and eventually to freedom. Her story is inspirational and compelling reading, and it offers people everywhere the knowledge that in Christ they truly can experience life in all its fullness.
In this book you'll discover:
- God's original glorious plan for man and woman and how we strayed from that
- Historical and current global and church perspectives
- How Jesus and Paul viewed and treated women
- A detailed study of Paul's controversial Scripture passages
- Understanding of what is at stake if we don't address this issue
- Insight into how to move forward from where we are today
