Download or read book American Feminism written by Ginette Castro and published by NYU Press. This book was released on 1990-10 with total page 322 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this sweeping literary, cultural, and political history, French sociologist Ginette Castro vividly and dramatically tells the story of the contemporary women's movement in the United States. From the liberal feminists, like Betty Friedan, Mary Daly, and the members of NOW, to the radical feminists, including Kate Millett, Ti-Grace Atkinson, New York Radical Women, and Cell 16, Dr. Castro offers an enlivened yet balanced account of the many different ideological currents within the movement. Central to her contribution is the detailed reexamination of the role of the radical feminists, and her efforts to neutralize the sensationalism which has become attached to this segment of the movement. Captured here is the diversity of expression and yet the underlying unity, and potential for ideological synthesis in the American feminist movement. American Feminism makes an invaluable contribution to understanding the course of feminism in the United States and its radical roots.

Download or read book The Commercialization of News in the Nineteenth Century written by Gerald J. Baldasty and published by Univ of Wisconsin Press. This book was released on 1992-11-15 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Commercialization of News in the Nineteenth Century traces the major transformation of newspapers from a politically based press to a commercially based press in the nineteenth century. Gerald J. Baldasty argues that broad changes in American society, the national economy, and the newspaper industry brought about this dramatic shift. Increasingly in the nineteenth century, news became a commodity valued more for its profitablility than for its role in informing or persuading the public on political issues. Newspapers started out as highly partisan adjuncts of political parties. As advertisers replaced political parties as the chief financial support of the press, they influenced newspapers in directing their content toward consumers, especially women. The results were recipes, fiction, contests, and features on everything from sports to fashion alongside more standard news about politics. Baldasty makes use of nineteenth-century materials—newspapers from throughout the era, manuscript letters from journalists and politicians, journalism and advertising trade publications, government reports—to document the changing role of the press during the period. He identifies three important phases: the partisan newspapers of the Jacksonian era (1825-1835), the transition of the press in the middle of the century, and the influence of commercialization of the news in the last two decades of the century.
