Women and Economics - A Study of the Economic Relation Between Men and Women as a Factor in Social Evolution

Charlotte Perkins Gilman

Sinopse

In "Women and Economics," Charlotte Perkins Gilman offers a pioneering exploration of the intersection between gender roles and economic structures, challenging the prevailing societal norms of her time. Written in a compelling and accessible style, the book critiques the economic dependency imposed on women and emphasizes the necessity for their independence and active participation in the workforce. Gilman's arguments are underpinned by a socialist feminist perspective, intertwining social theory with practical implications, and situating her work within the late 19th-century context of the women's suffrage movement. Her eloquence and clarity highlight not only the moral imperatives for gender equality but also advocate for systemic changes that recognize women as essential contributors to the economy. Charlotte Perkins Gilman, an influential figure in feminist literature and activism, wrote this work during a period of great upheaval regarding women'Äôs rights. Her own experiences, including a troubling marriage and subsequent mental health struggles, informed her passionate advocacy for women'Äôs autonomy and economic self-sufficiency. Gilman's background in sociology and her keen insights into societal norms shaped her vision, positioning her as a formidable voice in both literary and social reform circles. "Women and Economics" is essential reading for anyone interested in gender studies, economics, or social reform. Gilman'Äôs incisive analysis not only resonates with contemporary discussions on gender equality but also serves as a historical document illustrating the ongoing struggle for women'Äôs rights. Readers will find that her arguments compel a reevaluation of traditional notions about women's roles in society, offering profound insights that remain relevant today.

Beat Poet Experience

Sonny Sunshine the new Album by the Beat Poet Experience is formed around the poetry and dynamism of performance artist David O'Kelly. Paying more than a passing nod to the Beat Poets of the 60's it embraces warmly all that we love and hate about ourselves with a wry twist of phrase and some of the hottest jazz licks this side of New Orleans ...Reflecting the major works of Beat writing ALA Allen Ginsberg's Howl (1956), William S. Burroughs's Naked Lunch (1959) and Jack Kerouac's On the Road (1957), the Beat Poet Experience joins these members of the Beat Generation as one of the new bohemian hedonists celebrating nonconformity and spontaneous creativity. 
The album Sonny Sunshine includes songs, lyrics and poems that have been written and performed over the last two decades in New York, Prague and London. It is Beat Poetry with an English twist and an eye to the odd crazy frailty of human nature with incredible performances from some of the best players currently on London's vibrant jazz scene. Written with a wry turn of Phrase and a sharp observational eye these are poems about life, death and magic.

The first story takes you through the myths of The Trickster Gods, devious and mischievous deities who use wit and cunning to challenge the status quo. Often playing pranks on gods and humans alike, these figures represent chaos and creativity, teaching important lessons about the consequences of trickery and the unpredictable nature of life. From the Norse Loki to the African Anansi, these tricksters serve as both villains and saviors, weaving their own kind of order out of disorder.
Next, venture into The Heroes of Myth, timeless figures whose valor and determination have inspired generations. These legendary warriors—like Hercules, Achilles, and Perseus—embody the ideals of courage, honor, and the willingness to face great challenges for the greater good. Their stories, filled with monsters, gods, and impossible feats, have shaped the way we view heroism and sacrifice across cultures and time periods.
Finally, explore Native American Legends, a rich tapestry of stories passed down through generations of indigenous peoples. These legends highlight the deep connection between humans, nature, and the spiritual world. From powerful tricksters like Coyote to brave heroes who protect their communities, these myths are filled with wisdom, moral lessons, and reflections on the balance between the material and spiritual realms.
Tricksters and Heroes invites readers to embrace the complexity of human nature through the lens of mythology, where mischief, valor, and everything in between reveal truths about the world we live in.
