Her Royal Highness Woman

Max O'Rell

Publisher: DigiCat

Summary

In 'Her Royal Highness Woman,' Max O'Rell combines wit and keen observation to explore the intricacies of gender relations and societal expectations in the late 19th century. Employing a conversational and satirical literary style, O'Rell critiques the traditional roles assigned to women and celebrates their multi-faceted nature. This book stands as a pivotal commentary on the burgeoning women's rights movement, reflecting the shifting tides of gender norms in an era ripe for social change. O'Rell's keen sense of irony enables him to present complex truths about femininity and masculinity, making this work both amusing and thought-provoking. Max O'Rell, born in 1857, was a French author and humorist whose experiences living in both Paris and England provided a unique lens through which he examined cultural differences. His background as a lecturer and his engagement with progressive ideas about womanhood likely inspired his rigorous yet humorous discussion of woman's position in society. O'Rell's insight into the evolving perceptions of women reveals his advocacy for their rights amid a patriarchal framework, positioning him as an early supporter of feminism. 'Her Royal Highness Woman' is a must-read for anyone interested in gender studies, social commentary, or literary humor of the Victorian era. O'Rell's charming prose and unabashed exploration of women's roles invite readers to reflect on long-standing tropes while enjoying an engaging narrative. This book promises to enlighten, amuse, and provoke thought, making it a significant contribution to both literature and feminist discourse.

Aliens - The Chequered History...

Paul Dowswell

The welcome given to refugees from fascist Europe is part of our fond nostalgia for Britain's role in the Second World War, nestling in our imagination next to images of evacuees clutching teddy bears, and milkmen picking their way through bomb rubble during the Blitz. But there is a darker side to this story. Then, as now, there was great suspicion, resentment and fear towards new arrivals, much of it kindled by the tabloid press. Then, as now, politicians dealt with a reluctance to accommodate refugees by hiding behind bureaucratic hurdles and obfuscation.
Many of the 10,000 Kindertransport children who arrived here in the late 1930s have warm memories of the kindness they were shown, but half a million refugees were refused entry and most of them died as a result. And those who were accepted found their troubles far from over. While Britain fearfully awaited invasion in 1940, 30,000 Jews were interned as 'enemy aliens' and some were sent off to the colonies on dangerous and sometimes fatal voyages. Nor were Jews the only refugees clamouring for the thin gruel of public sympathy. Those fleeing fascism and civil war elsewhere in Europe found that whether they were met with kindness or hostility depended on the locals' political affiliations and newspapers of choice.
Interweaving personal testimonies with historical sources, Paul Dowswell casts a fresh eye on the wartime era, painting a vivid picture of what life was really like for Britain's refugees.
