Paperback. Condition: Very Good. Knowing Women explores some of the most exciting and new developments in feminist theory, engaging the reader as an active participant in critical debates concerning the status of women as both objects and subjects of knowledge. The book introduces and reappraises key feminist questions concerning sex and gender, biology and the body, sexuality and motherhood. Various psychoanalytical perspectives are critically examined for the light they throw on the social and symbolic constructions of femininity. Later chapters explore theories of the subject and subjectivity, the place of language in the construction of social identities and the relation between discourse, power and knowledge. A concluding chapter focuses on the debate between feminism and post-modernism, stressing the political nature of the feminist project. The debates are presented in a way that will make them accessible to students. Introductions to each chapter lay out the main issues and introduce readings chosen for their clarity and accessibility. Ideal as an introductory textbook in feminism and women's studies, Knowing Women will also appeal to a wide readership interested in current debates in feminist theory. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.…

Two years later, in 'The Tender Passion', Gay continued his eloquent, psycho-analytically informed exploration of the Victorian era & its middle classes. Whereas 'Education of the Senses' focused on the sexual attitudes & practices of the 19th-century bourgeoisie, 'The Tender Passion' concentrates on their notions of love. No less revisionist than he was in his first volume, Gay argues here that the Victorians were able not only to enjoy their sexuality but to know love in its most exalted sense. The realities of love for the Victorians, he shows, came much closer to their ideals than many have thought. Gay delves into a huge body of material, from philosophical treatises to medical texts, from letters & diaries to works of fiction. The book is replete w/ fascinating insights into the lives & works of individual Victorians (Dickens, Stendhal, Wagner, Oscar Wilde, Beatrice Potter & Sydney Webb, among them) & his discussions range from the "discovery" of homosexuality to the ways love was diverted or disguised in music & religion. Particularly compelling is the opening section in which Gay analyzes in depth the separate love stories of 2 young men, one English and one German, stories which, in Gay's view, "dramatize some of the careers in love open to the middle class in the decades of Victoria and beyond." A work of remarkable learning, analytical sophistication, and stylistic verve, 'The Tender Passion' is an impressive addition to a monumental historical enterprise. * ABOUT THE AUTHOR: Peter Gay, Sterling Professor of History Emeritus at Yale University, is the author of many acclaimed books. * SHIPPING: MNEMOSYNE carefully wraps, labels & custom-packages this fine book for FREE domestic shipment via USPS MEDIA MAIL or USPS PRIORITY MAIL for our posted below-cost additional fee of $12.00 & to all international destinations via USPS FIRST CLASS INTERNATIONAL AIRMAIL at our posted rates.

Magazine. Five different "household" periodicals, all in dreadful shape, dusty, edgeworn, all close to being self-disbound. We see no evidence of excisions, or of missing plates; the Peterson name attaches to one such, but it is not a "Peterson's Magazine", the famous competitor to Godey's Ladies Mag, both of which offered incredibly beautiful fullpage plates, often hand-colored. Nothing near so good here. Here we will briefly describe The Lady's Friend as it is one of two in least dire condition and does provide several impressive b&w fashion engravings; it is sewn, 10x6.5 inches, remnant of a titled spine panel present, original thread present but broken, badly edgeworn, ornate typography to contents and especially to the profuse advertisements, features sentimental fiction suitable for broads and tykes. In other words, the usual late-19thC victoriana.

The five serials together as a lot: all the same size as the first described (or slightly smaller), all in very rough condition, all will disappoint collectors and intrigue readers with a stomach for this period of Americana.…

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book records privileged access to the unique and arduous experience of the delegation sent to visit various Indian Reservations in Nebraska undertaken in 1869 and led by the author.

The author reveals the desperate material conditions and dire need for support in which these communities found themselves.
