Download or read book Veiled Figures written by Teresa Heffernan and published by University of Toronto Press. This book was released on 2016-05-12 with total page 217 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks, public debates about Islam and the veil have become increasingly divisive. Yet few acknowledge that this fascination with veiling goes back more than three centuries. In Veiled Figures, Teresa Heffernan explores how the clash of civilizations is perpetuated by the rhetoric of veiling and unveiling. Drawing on travel narratives, harem literature, and other stories, Heffernan argues that women’s bodies have been used to exacerbate the divide between religion and reason in the eighteenth century, the Islamic umma and the Western nation in the nineteenth, and Islamism and global capitalism in the contemporary period. Through the study of the writings of Lady Mary Wortley Montagu, Anna Bowman Dodd, Demetra Vaka Brown, Zeyneb Hanoum, and others, Heffernan’s book demonstrates the ways in which these works complicate and interrupt these divides, opening up new opportunities for a more constructive dialogue between East and West.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Veiled Women: Shifting Gender Equations in Rural Haryana, 1880-1990, draws on a large range of popular sources such as folk songs, oral traditions and interviews as well as statistical data and archival material to explore certain major issues regarding the position of women in rural Haryana in north India. Covering a period of a hundred years, the author explores the participation of women, specially among the landholding classes, in the process of production and reproduction; the exclusion of women from the control of resources; the consequences of the new agricultural technologies on women and their work; the resistence of patriarchal society to a change in the legal position of women; the upholding of the customary practices relating to marriage and property by the colonial and the post colonial state; and lastly the complicity of women themselves in the reconstruction of patriarchy.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An aspiring Harper agent finds that solving a poisoning—and impressing her superiors—is much harder than she imagined The Bedine witch Ruha has left the parched sea of Anauroch on her quest to become a Harper. That quest takes her to Eversult, where she must prove her mettle by discovering who has poisoned Lady Yanseldara. Simple enough—find the poison and track the poisoner. But when the Cult of the Dragon, a Shou Prince, an oriental merchant, and an ancient dracolich get involved, Ruha’s simple task becomes far more complicated. As she soon discovers, life is never simple for a Harper, and poisoners' plots hold more treacherous twists than the tail of a Shou dragon. The Veiled Dragon is the twelfth book in a series of loosely-connected novels about the Harpers.
