Woman VS Church and State - Enriched edition A Historical Account

Matilda Joslyn Gage

Beschreibung

In "Woman VS. Church and State," Matilda Joslyn Gage compellingly navigates the intersecting realms of gender and religion within the socio-political landscape of the late 19th century. Employing a persuasive yet accessible literary style, Gage critically examines the oppressive structures upheld by church and state that have historically marginalized women. This text, situated within the feminist literary tradition, challenges the existing norms of her time, advocating for the emancipation and recognition of women's rights. Gage's meticulous research features an array of contemporary sources, making her arguments both robust and relevant. Matilda Joslyn Gage was a prominent suffragist, abolitionist, and a key figure in the women's rights movement. Her rich background in social activism, along with her personal experiences of discrimination, profoundly influenced her writing. Gage's collaboration with other notable figures, including Susan B. Anthony and Elizabeth Cady Stanton, underscores her commitment to the cause and situates her work within a broader context of civil rights activism that was gaining momentum during her lifetime. "Woman VS. Church and State" is not merely a historical account; it is a clarion call for justice and equality. Gage's eloquent argumentation and unwavering commitment to women's rights offer invaluable insights for contemporary readers. This essential read is not only crucial for those interested in feminist theory and history but also for anyone committed to challenging the status quo and understanding the enduring struggle for women's rights.

No Dice - Gambling and Risk in...

Nathan Charles

When you think of 'gambling' you might think of Vegas casinos, betting shops and football flutters but the risk of gambling is embedded in numerous corners of popular culture that many of us consume.
By considering the concept of 'soft gambling', No Dice asks how we could possibly link the Pokémon Trading Card Game with gambling. Can we compare Netflix to a night at the theatre? When does fictional gambling within video games go too far with their infamous loot boxes? Does such risk affect everyone or are socio-economic divides driving further inequality?
No Dice explores the messy world of gambling and risk that we encounter regularly, from childhood through adulthood, considering if it is worth the risk and if we even know what risks we might be taking.
