Sinopse

Women Literature Gains examines how women writers have historically navigated and transformed the literary world, a space often dominated by men. It explores the social and historical contexts that either propelled or hindered women's access to literature, highlighting the systemic inequalities they faced. For instance, women writers often had to challenge established literary traditions to create space for their own voices. The book argues that the increased visibility of women in literature reflects not just individual talent, but also broader socio-political changes and the collective efforts of women writers, critics, and readers.

 
The book progresses from the historical exclusion of women to their strategic efforts to gain recognition. It analyzes how women writers redefined literary canons and built supportive networks through literary salons and feminist presses. Also, it investigates how their writings engaged with social and political movements, advocating for gender equality.

 
By drawing on archival research, literary analysis, and biographical studies, Women Literature Gains provides a nuanced understanding of the interplay between gender, power, and literary production, enriching our understanding of social history and gender studies.

    Writers and poets, academics and art critics, mathematicians and experimental scientists, churchmen and politicians, women of strong opinions gather for a summer weekend in the 1870s. Is it real, or is it a fantasy? One thing's sure: their debates – about life's aims, rural and urban living, love and money, civilization and belief, the social framework, the past, the present and the future take us to the heart of the Victorian dream and its reality: the idea that their society exemplified 'Progress'. What did 'Progress' mean? Were things (and which things) getting better? What did 'better' mean? And for whom? The history of the world before the Victorians, from Aberdeen to Africa, showed a particular form of equality for almost everyone: an equality of poverty and no prospects, with kindness often in short supply. Victorians wanted to change that world, thought they were changing it, did change it. They did it in a human way: a melange of muddle, vision, certainty, doubt, too slow for many, too fast for some. Yet their changes were decisive both for creating the modern world, but also for revealing the dilemmas attached to mass living in urban, technological societies, as well as the moral flaws in imposing one civilization's or one person's beliefs on another. Most remarkably of all, the upheaval in making major transitions in every area of life, which produced revolutions and violence across Europe, in the Americas and in Asia, was carried out – at least in Britain itself – almost entirely peacefully. The past will always be a foreign country for those unwilling to engage with its people. Whether viewing the lives of rulers or the ruled, 'Being Victorian' corrects innumerable preconceptions.

    When scholars look at the passage of history, certain epochs and transitions to new periods tend to stand out. The transition from the early modern to the Industrial Age in the late 18th century and the collapse of the Roman Empire are two of the more well known, but the transition from the Bronze to the Iron Age during the late 13th and early 12th centuries BCE arguably changed the structure and course of world history more fundamentally than any period before or since. During this period, numerous wealthy and enduring kingdoms of the eastern Mediterranean Sea region collapsed, and new ones rose in their places.  
    At the center of this period of turmoil was a group of people known today as the Sea Peoples, the English translation of the name given to them by the Egyptians. Despite their prominent role in history, however, the Sea Peoples remain as mysterious as they were influential; while the Egyptians documented their presence and the wars against them, it has never been clear exactly where the Sea Peoples originated from, or what compelled them to invade various parts of the region with massive numbers. Whatever the reason, the Sea Peoples posed an existential threat to the people already living in the region. 
    	Naturally, the mystery surrounding the Sea Peoples has led to all kinds of theories aiming to identify them. While plenty of theories are plausible, there are other fanciful theories that have attempted to associate the Sea Peoples with the Atlantic Ocean and even Troy.

    A fascinating overview of the substance that has shaped the modern world. 
     
    In this compelling account, Ian Fitzgerald tells the complete story of oil, from its formation over millions of years to its first discovery and use by humankind to its role as a crucial energy source and the conflicts that have since revolved around it. 
     
    Along the way, he covers such themes as technological innovation, cartels and collusions, oil's ever-depleting stocks and the rise of environmentalism, and its staggering influence on politics and business. Taking us from the days of oil barons like John D. Rockefeller and the first refineries of Standard Oil through to the formation of OPEC in the mid-20th century and the rise of fracking in the 21st, A History of Oil explores everything from the creation of plastics to the causes of the Gulf Wars.

    In this 2023 conversation with Justine Willis Toms, multimedia producer Trebbe Johnson advocates opening to the possibility of wonder from surprising sources, so we can recognize that, even in the bleakest of times, beauty is possible.  
    Johnson is the founder and director of the global community Radical Joy for Hard Times, and is devoted to finding and making beauty in hurt places. She observes that a new kind of heroism is needed in facing the dire problems of the 21st century -- that we can’t confront any emergency, personal, local, or global, by hoping and praying that the problem will go away or waiting for someone else to act. Johnson suggests that we not deny our heartbreak, rather we must give expression to our grief through tears, creative work, and sharing our lives and our stories with others. Although that beauty can’t permanently replace our losses, our sorrow, and the dire problems we’re facing, it can break through the walls of powerlessness and melt despair. 
    Trebbe Johnson is the author of several books including:Radical Joy for Hard Times: Finding Meaning and Making Beauty in Earth’s Broken Places. (North Atlantic Books 2018Fierce Consciousness: Surviving the Sorrows of Earth and Self (Calliope Books, 2023)
