Download or read book A Woman s Touch written by Isabelle Anscombe and published by Penguin Group. This book was released on 1985 with total page 236 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For centuries, women have organized, supervised, and labored in the households they ran, but only during the last hundred years or so did they begin to have a say in how homes and furnishings were designed. Now, in this richly illustrated survey of design and design movements from the 1860s to the 1980s, women gain their rightful place in the history of design. Isabelle Anscombe illuminates the contributions of women to the Arts and Crafts Movement in Britain, the Glasgow School of Art, and the Bauhaus school, and discusses the great interior decorators of the 1920s and 1930s. Drawing on original interviews and on social and art history, Anscombe shows how the textiles, tableware, and furniture created by designers such as Vanessa Bell, Sonia Delaunay, and Elsie de Wolfe revolutionized ideas about the form and function of the home. Thoroughly researched and written with both wit and authority, "A Woman's Touch" is an important addition to the literature of design. -- From publisher's description

Download or read book The Book of Night Women written by Marlon James and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2009-02-19 with total page 436 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the author of the National Book Award finalist Black Leopard, Red Wolf and the WINNER of the 2015 Man Booker Prize for A Brief History of Seven Killings "An undeniable success.” — The New York Times Book Review A true triumph of voice and storytelling, The Book of Night Women rings with both profound authenticity and a distinctly contemporary energy. It is the story of Lilith, born into slavery on a Jamaican sugar plantation at the end of the eighteenth century. Even at her birth, the slave women around her recognize a dark power that they- and she-will come to both revere and fear. The Night Women, as they call themselves, have long been plotting a slave revolt, and as Lilith comes of age they see her as the key to their plans. But when she begins to understand her own feelings, desires, and identity, Lilith starts to push at the edges of what is imaginable for the life of a slave woman, and risks becoming the conspiracy's weak link. But the real revelation of the book-the secret to the stirring imagery and insistent prose-is Marlon James himself, a young writer at once breathtakingly daring and wholly in command of his craft.

Download or read book Women Power written by Mary Beard and published by Profile Books. This book was released on 2017-11-02 with total page 87 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An updated edition of the Sunday Times Bestseller Britain's best-known classicist Mary Beard, is also a committed and vocal feminist. With wry wit, she revisits the gender agenda and shows how history has treated powerful women. Her examples range from the classical world to the modern day, from Medusa and Athena to Theresa May and Hillary Clinton. Beard explores the cultural underpinnings of misogyny, considering the public voice of women, our cultural assumptions about women's relationship with power, and how powerful women resist being packaged into a male template. A year on since the advent of #metoo, Beard looks at how the discussions have moved on during this time, and how that intersects with issues of rape and consent, and the stories men tell themselves to support their actions. In trademark Beardian style, using examples ancient and modern, Beard argues, 'it's time for change - and now!' From the author of international bestseller SPQR: A History of Ancient Rome.
