Wendy Z. Goldman
Women at the Gates: Gender and Industry in Stalin`s Russia

2002 y.
Publisher: Cambridge University Press
Description: In the annals of industrialization, the Soviet experience is unique in its whirlwind rapidity. The vast transformations that shook western Europe over the centuries - proletarianization, industrialization, urbanization - were in the Soviet Union telescoped into a mere decade. The working class grew at an unprecedented rate, changing in size and social composition. Even more striking was the critical role of women: in no country of the world did they come to constitute such a significant part of the working class in so short a time. As women flooded industries traditionally dominated by men, they undercut strict hierarchies within the factories and forced male workers to reexamine their ideas about skill, `masculine` and `feminine` work, and the role of women in the workplace. The state`s use of female labor was closely intertwined with the great upheavals of early Soviet history: accumulation of capital for the industrialization drive, the urban food crisis, collectivization, and… [detailed...]

Christine E. Bose
Women in 1900: Gateway to the Political Economy of the 20th Century (Women in the Political Economy (Hardcover))

— y.
Publisher: —
Description: The past is more relevant to the present than we often believe. There are historical roots to seemingly new concerns, frequently raised as social problems, which connect the beginning and the end of the twentieth century. For example, ethnic enclaves, which provided employment networks for women, existed in domestic work long before their recent rediscovery among ethnic men. Female-headed households and single mothers have also been around for a long time, but in 1900 they had to support themselves in the absence of large state or federal welfare programs. By creatively re-analyzing census data, the author explores women`s place in the U.S. political economy at the beginning of the twentieth century, viewed from the national level, but also highlighting the variations in women`s experiences according to racial ethnic background, class, and geography. Since this past is often used as a baseline for judging changes during the subsequent one hundred years, it is important to… [detailed...]

Larry Utley
Women in Control: Iron Fist, Velvet Glove

2004 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Book DescriptionImages of the dominant female were once the exclusive property of secretive fetishists, guiltily celebrated in underground books and videos and unknown to the mainstream. Today provocative characters like the dominatrix, the unattainable goddess, and the cruel temptress have become familiar, if still controversial, figures in pop culture. Women in Control showcases images and icons from this heady world. Noted fetish photographer Larry Utley offers both the aficionado and the curious observer a visual feast of unconventional, individualistic, strong women in control of their own sexuality - and, frequently, that of those around them. Vivid tableaux range from the playful (a cowgirl in chaps hog-ties a grinning cowpoke) to the perverse (a woman is clad sensually in a live rattlesnake). Printed in a large format and lavishly illustrated, this book goes beyond documenting the expected to pay tribute to women`s power in the S/M scene. [detailed...]

D. H. Lawrence
Women in Love (подарочное издание)

2005 y.
Publisher: CRW Publishing Limited
Description: Стильно оформленное подарочное издание в суперобложке, с трехсторонним золотым обрезом и шелковым ляссе. In Women in Love (1920), Ursula and Gudrun Brangwen, who first appeared in Lawrence`s earlier novel, The Rainbow, take centre stage as Lawrence explores their growth and development in their relationships with two powerful men, Rupert Birkin and his friend Gerald Crich. A novel of regeneration and dark, destructive human passion, the book reflects the impact on Lawrence of World War I in the potential both for annihilation and salvation of the self. Quintessentially modernist, the novel is one of Lawrence`s most extraordinary, innovative and unsettling works. Lawrence actually completed this tale in 1916, the year after the The Rainbow fiasco - in which copies were ordered by a magistrate to be destroyed under the Obscene Publications Act. As for Women in Love, almost every publisher in London refused the manuscripts. Methuen (publisher of The Rainbow) cancelled… [detailed...]

D. H. Lawrence
Women in Love

1998 y.
Publisher: Oxford University Press
Description: A powerful and engrossing tale of extremes and extremists, `Women in Love` (1920) follows the passionate relationships of two sisters, Gudrun and Ursula Brangwen, with their respective lovers, the ominous Gerald Crich and the charismatic but fragile Rupert Birkin. Beginning in a narrow-minded English colliery town and culminating amidst the ice and snow of the Alps, the abortive alliance between the two men and the couples` affairs are played out against the derangements of industrialism and the need to find new ways of living and better ways of dying. The violence and bitterness of the First World War breach every page of the novel, just as the slaughter of the trenches occupied Lawrence`s mind at the time of writing. He considered it `the best of my novels`, exploring through it his belief that love is `the great creative process`. No Modernist text is more highly charged with the conflict of love and death, or more profoundly unsettling. Формат: 13 см х 19,5 см. [detailed...]

D. H. Lawrence
Women in Love

1999 y.
Publisher: Wordsworth Editions Limited
Description: Lawrence`s finest, most mature novel initially met with disgust and incomprehension. In the love affairs of two sisters, Ursula with Rupert, and Gudrun with Gerald, critics could only see a sorry tale of sexual depravity and philosophical obscurity. Women in Love is, however, a profound response to a whole cultural crisis. The `progress` of the modern industrialized world had led to the carnage of the First World War. What, then, did it mean to call ourselves `human`? On what grounds could we place ourselves above and beyond the animal world? What are the definitive forms of our relationships - love, marriage, family, friendship - really worth? And how might they be otherwise? Without directly referring to the war, Women in Love explores these questions with restless energy. As a sequel to The Rainbow , the novel develops experimental techniques which made Lawrence one of the most important writers of the Modernist movement. [detailed...]

Women in Love

1996 y.
Publisher: Penguin Books Ltd.
Description: Women in Love is about `the problem of today, the establishment of a new relation, or the readjustment of the old one, between man and woman`. D.H.Lawrence`s masterpiece charts the fluctuations in the relationships of Ursula Brangwen and her sister Gudrun (first introduced in The Rainbow) with their lovers Rupert Birkin, in many ways a self-portrait, and Gerald, the son of an industrial magnate. Through a series of dramatic scenes - a wedding, a water-party, encounters in flats and restaurants in London, excursions to the countryside around the colliery town of Beldover - Lawrence creates a passionate, lyrical and savagely critical vision of modern society and modern values. In his intense friendship with Gerald and his marriage to Ursula, Birkin seeks out new kinds of relationships, attempting to transcend the destructive twentieth-century conjunction of love and death and its mechanical, soulless sexuality.

Description: What are the reasons that prevent women reaching higher level management positions in today`s society? Life Cycle and Women in Management explores the elements that limit this process, such as those relating to social structure, family and professional socialization in its different levels. An exploratory study, based on in-depth interviews with real managers, it gives a general outlook about society and organizations in the 21st century, examining the problems that occur at the top, and presents a typology of female managers’ attitudes according to age.

Women in Russian Literature After Glasnost: Female Alternatives (Legenda)

2005 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Book DescriptionThe Russian literary world was shaken by the wide-reaching reforms of the late Soviet period (1985-91) and the Soviet Union`s subsequent collapse. During this time the phenomenon of `alternative` literature emerged, characterised by an emphasis on thematic, structural, and linguistic transgression of both Soviet-era values and the enduring Russian tradition of civic engagement and moral edification through literature. Through close textual analysis, Adlam examines the relationship of thisliterary phenomenon to issues of gender and creative authority, providing detailed discussion of several of the most significant women writers of the period, among them Valeriia Narbikova, Liudmila Petrushevskaia and Nina Sadur.

Description: Across the state and across a wide variety of musical genres, women are making their mark on Texas music. Some have become international superstars, while others are just starting to make their voices heard. But every woman who goes out and plays her music proves that `baring one`s heart and soul takes courage, and Texas women artists have a lot of courage,` as Lloyd Maines observes in the opening interview of this book. To pay tribute to these dedicated musicians and to capture their unique perspectives on what it means to be a woman in the music business, Kathleen Hudson has spent many years interviewing Texas women musicians for the Texas Heritage Music Foundation. In Women in Texas Music, Hudson lets us listen in on conversations with thirty-nine musical artists, including Emily Robison, Terri Hendrix, Lee Ann Womack, Rosie Flores, Betty Buckley, Marcia Ball, Lavelle White, and Bobbie Nelson.
