Gender History - A Very Short...

Antoinette Burton

This volume introduces the field of gender history—its origins, development, reception, recalibrations, and frictions. It offers a set of working definitions of gender as a descriptive category and as a category of historical analysis, tracing the emergence, usage, and applicability of these entwined subjects. 
 
 
 
Inevitably political, gender history has taken aim at the broader field of historical narrative by asking who counts as a historical subject, what difference gender makes, and how attention to it subverts reigning assumptions of what power, culture, economics, and identity have been in the past—and what they are today. The book explores how gender analysis has changed interpretations of the histories of slavery, capitalism, migration, and empire. 
 
 
 
As a field, gender history has been extraordinarily influential in shaping several generations of scholars and students. And, as part of the movement toward gender equality that is key to modern western progress, gender history has been caught up in the culture wars that continue to shape post-global society. The practice of gender history has always run up against the forces of race, class, and sexuality that challenge the singularity of gender itself as an explanatory category of historical analysis. That powerful, unruly tension is at the heart of this Very Short Introduction.

Storm in the Psyche - Encounters...

Sebastian Nathanial Supple,...

The turbulent world in which we live confronts us with uncertainties, confusions, and fears. In this way, humanity has remained in an ignorance of reality, without discovering reason. This places human beings in a paradox: knowledge perfectly camouflaged in symbols, anagrams, and enigmas, along with fragmented information. Thus, will, character, consciousness, and free will, which are nourished by that knowledge, confuse thought, while the senses distract and interpret in their own way.
What is the concern? The knowledge we acquire and teach, if not freed from passions, pride, and vanity, binds us instead of liberating us. In the jungle where we all dwell, this knowledge generates confusion and validates information superficially. Knowledge faces a dilemma: it is fueled by thought and controlled by an external world laden with desires, illusions, and needs, where the senses act as the conductor. This situation places both society and school in a paradox, in a conflict so powerful that, when looking at reality, we all refuse to accept it, preventing us from distinguishing between good and evil.
The objective of this book is to navigate the forest of knowledge and the jungle of confusion alongside Anuma and Antuquia. We seek to explore the paths that lead us through confusion and the vicissitudes we face in the process of acquiring knowledge, to observe our destiny and the way we shape it, and to journey inward to know ourselves and give meaning to what we learn for the awakening of consciousness. This is a psychological journey that employs anagrams, symbols, and enigmas. We aim to lift the veil from our eyes, depending on our character and will, the capacity to uncover what is hidden in knowledge, and the strength of our attraction or yearning to know and learn. Few people wish to explore that place; everyone fears reality, many preferring to remain in Platón's cave myth (1959). The reason is that in that jungle, a beast resides, and everyone prefers to flee. Its name is "Fear."
