Pasquale De Marco

Beschreibung

In the tumultuous 19th century, America was a nation in transition, and the evolving gender roles and expectations reflected the profound changes taking place. "The Ensnared Mind: Exploring Gender Dynamics in the 19th Century" delves into this captivating era, unveiling the intricate interplay between societal norms, cultural beliefs, and individual experiences.

This meticulously researched book uncovers the complexities of gender roles, revealing the ideals, expectations, and realities that shaped the lives of men and women. From the Cult of Domesticity, which confined women to the domestic sphere, to the Cult of Manhood, which glorified male strength and independence, this book explores the forces that molded gender identities and behaviors.

Through captivating storytelling and in-depth analysis, the book examines the impact of gender on various aspects of life, including marriage and family, education and employment, religion and morality, politics and law, medicine and health, art and literature, social reform and activism, and the intersections of gender with class and race.

"The Ensnared Mind" sheds light on the struggles and triumphs of both women and men as they navigated a rapidly changing society. It explores the double standard that held women to different standards than men, the fight for women's rights and suffrage, and the challenges faced by men in meeting the expectations of masculinity.

This book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in American history, gender studies, sociology, or cultural studies. It provides a comprehensive understanding of the historical roots of gender roles and their enduring impact on society.

With its engaging narrative and insightful analysis, "The Ensnared Mind" offers a thought-provoking exploration of gender dynamics in the 19th century, inviting readers to reflect on how far we have come and how far we still have to go in achieving gender equality.

Periyar Select Speeches and...

Periyar

Social justice has always remained a preoccupation and concern, and even a passion, in the very mental make-up of the Tamil people. The history of Tamil down the ages shows that the socially oppressed and their rights to religious observances have always been upheld. The Tamils were therefore particularly impressed by the principles of Karl Marx. While upholding economic justice, the Tamils also asserted social justice. The emphasis of social justice shifted from a demand for religious rights to a demand for the right to education and social equality. At the same time the European Rationality also influenced the Tamil stock. So it was like a confluence of new sentiments, ideas, rationality and agnosticism that led to institutionalized ideological movements during the 19th and 20th centuries that characterized the tenor of the Tamil thought stream, politics, religion, social structure, empowerment and a revaluation of the traditional. Such institutionalization was best realized by the Dravidian Movement led by EV Ramasamy Naicker, reverently called Periyar. Periyar lived a long life and through and through he had been vociferous and influential. His writings and speeches run to thousands of pages. A few selected speeches and articles, which however are too little to represent the multifarious issues that Periyar addressed, have been presented in this audio book. The selection eliminates a couple of issues because certain causes that made Periyar address those issues no more exist in the Tamil society of the 20th and 21st centuries. The selected speeches and articles are from his corpus on the following issues.
1. திராவிடநாடு 2. கலைகள் 3. பொருளாதாரம் 4. சமுதாயம் 5. தத்துவம் 6. கிராம சீர்திருத்தம் 7. கல்வி 8. பகுத்தறிவு 9. தேசியம், இயக்கங்கள்

Integrity - The Foundation of...

Esther Jameson

Integrity is the cornerstone of trust, and trust is essential in every aspect of our lives. Whether in personal relationships, the workplace, or society as a whole, integrity is what binds us together and ensures that we can rely on one another. Without integrity, trust is compromised, and relationships become fragile, leading to misunderstandings, broken bonds, and lost opportunities. It is the foundation upon which all other virtues are built, and it is a key element that defines who we are as individuals and how we are perceived by others.
At its core, integrity is about being true to one’s principles and values, regardless of the circumstances. It means doing the right thing, even when no one is watching, and maintaining consistency between one’s beliefs, actions, and words. Integrity is not about perfection; rather, it is about being honest, transparent, and committed to doing what is right, even when it’s difficult or inconvenient.
One of the most powerful aspects of integrity is its ability to build trust. When we demonstrate integrity, others come to rely on our word and actions. Trust is built over time through repeated demonstrations of honesty, consistency, and reliability. Integrity fosters an environment where people feel safe, respected, and valued. It is the glue that holds relationships together, whether in families, friendships, or workplaces. People with integrity are seen as dependable, ethical, and authentic, making them natural leaders and role models.

Angelica - For Love and Country...

Molly Beer

Few women of the American Revolution have come through 250 years of US history with such clarity and color as Angelica Schuyler Church. She was Alexander Hamilton's "saucy" sister-in-law, and the heart of Thomas Jefferson's "charming coterie" of artists and salonnières in Paris. Her transatlantic network of important friends spanned the political spectrum of her time and place, and her astute eye and brilliant letters kept them well informed. 
 
 
 
A woman of great influence in a time of influential women (Catherine the Great and Marie-Antoinette were contemporaries), Angelica was at the red-hot center of American history at its birth: in Boston, when General Burgoyne surrendered to the revolutionaries; in Newport, receiving French troops under the command of her soon-to-be dear friend Marquis de Lafayette; in Yorktown, just after the decisive battle; in Paris and London, helping to determine the standing of the new nation on the world stage. 
 
 
 
In this enthralling and revealing woman's-eye view of a revolutionary era, Molly Beer breathes vibrant new life into a period usually dominated by masculine themes and often dulled by familiarity. In telling Angelica's story, she illuminates how American women have always plied influence and networks for political ends, including the making of a new nation.
