Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Si la maternité est une très grande joie, elle est aussi une vraie claque pour de nombreuses femmes. Parce qu’être mère dans une société patriarcale, c’est se retrouver dépossédée de son corps, de son identité, de ses choix, mais c’est aussi être aux prises avec les inégalités domestiques, les discriminations professionnelles, les injonctions écrasantes et l’isolement social. Et pour toute une génération de femmes élevées dans une perspective égalitaire, la désillusion est grande. Ce serait donc ça, être mère ? Croisant des témoignages de femmes et des analyses de spécialistes, Aurélia Blanc, journaliste et mère, s’attaque ici aux préjugés et aux injustices que vivent les mères, et réunit tous les outils pour leur permettre de mieux vivre leur condition maternelle. Déboulonnant la figure de la mère parfaite, elle décortique les mécanismes qui conduisent tant de femmes à se sentir seules ou défaillantes dans leur rôle maternel, pour les aider à retrouver confiance et estime de soi. Car la maternité n'est pas qu'une expérience aliénante : elle est aujourd’hui le moteur d’une prise de conscience féministe massive et émancipatrice. Retrouvez tous les outils pour : • Déconstruire les idées reçues sur la maternité : non, les femmes ne sont pas « accouchées » et oui, les mères peuvent être badass. • S’armer face aux injonctions sociales sur le corps, les pratiques éducatives ou l’activité professionnelle des mères. • Faire des choix éclairés : projet de naissance, finances personnelles, etc. • Affronter les difficultés quotidiennes : charge domestique, isolement... • Conjuguer maternité et féminisme au jour le jour, sans complexe ni dogmatisme.
Download or read book Civilization without Sexes written by Mary Louise Roberts and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2009-02-15 with total page 368 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the raucous decade following World War I, newly blurred boundaries between male and female created fears among the French that theirs was becoming a civilization without sexes. This new gender confusion became a central metaphor for the War's impact on French culture and led to a marked increase in public debate concerning female identity and woman's proper role. Mary Louise Roberts examines how in these debates French society came to grips with the catastrophic horrors of the Great War. In sources as diverse as parliamentary records, newspaper articles, novels, medical texts, writings on sexology, and vocational literature, Roberts discovers a central question: how to come to terms with rapid economic, social, and cultural change and articulate a new order of social relationships. She examines the role of French trauma concerning the War in legislative efforts to ban propaganda for abortion and contraception, and explains anxieties about the decline of maternity by a crisis in gender relations that linked soldiery, virility, and paternity. Through these debates, Roberts locates the seeds of actual change. She shows how the willingness to entertain, or simply the need to condemn, nontraditional gender roles created an indecisiveness over female identity that ultimately subverted even the most conservative efforts to return to traditional gender roles and irrevocably altered the social organization of gender in postwar France.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mona Chollet's In Defense of Witches is a “brilliant, well-documented” celebration (Le Monde) by an acclaimed French feminist of the witch as a symbol of female rebellion and independence in the face of misogyny and persecution. Centuries after the infamous witch hunts that swept through Europe and America, witches continue to hold a unique fascination for many: as fairy tale villains, practitioners of pagan religion, as well as feminist icons. Witches are both the ultimate victim and the stubborn, elusive rebel. But who were the women who were accused and often killed for witchcraft? What types of women have centuries of terror censored, eliminated, and repressed? Celebrated feminist writer Mona Chollet explores three types of women who were accused of witchcraft and persecuted: the independent woman, since widows and celibates were particularly targeted; the childless woman, since the time of the hunts marked the end of tolerance for those who claimed to control their fertility; and the elderly woman, who has always been an object of at best, pity, and at worst, horror. Examining modern society, Chollet concludes that these women continue to be harrassed and oppressed. Rather than being a brief moment in history, the persecution of witches is an example of society’s seemingly eternal misogyny, while women today are direct descendants to those who were hunted down and killed for their thoughts and actions. With fiery prose and arguments that range from the scholarly to the cultural, In Defense of Witches seeks to unite the mythic image of the witch with modern women who live their lives on their own terms.
Download or read book The Mother in and French Literature written by and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2021-11-22 with total page 261 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The essays in this volume investigate maternity and the figure of the mother in French literature from France, Switzerland, Quebec and Africa, from the seventeenth century to the present. Drawing on cultural history, psychoanalysis, and feminist theory, as well as more traditional methods, they present maternity as a source of frustration and of joy, mothers as repressed and revered, daughters as wounded and loving, sons as domineering and dependent. Indeed, few things are simple where mothers — and especially where writing about mothers — are concerned.

Download or read book Horrible Mothers written by Loïc Bourdeau and published by U of Nebraska Press. This book was released on 2019-12 with total page 302 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For too long the main narratives of motherhood have been oppressive and exclusionary, frequently ignoring issues of female identity--especially regarding those not conforming to traditional female stereotypes. Horrible Mothers offers a variety of perspectives for analyzing representations of the mother in francophone literature and film at the turn of the twenty-first century in North America, including Québec, Ontario, New England, and California. Contributors reexamine the "horrible mother" paradigm within a broad range of sociocultural contexts from different locations to broaden the understanding of mothering beyond traditional ideology. The selections draw from long-established scholarship in women's studies as well as from new developments in queer studies to make sense of and articulate strategies of representation; to show how contemporary family models are constantly evolving, reshaping, and moving away from heteronormative expectations; and to reposition mothers as subjects occupying the center of their own narrative, rather than as objects. The contributors engage narratives of mothering from myriad perspectives, referencing the works of writers or filmmakers such as Marguerite Andersen, Nelly Arcan, Grégoire Chabot, Xavier Dolan, Nancy Huston, and Lucie Joubert.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Counterpractice highlights a generation of women who used art to define a culture of experimental thought and practice during the period of the French women’s movement or Mouvement de Libération des Femmes (1970–81). It considers women’s art in relation to some of the most exciting thinkers to have emerged from the French literature and philosophy of the 1970s – Hélène Cixous, Luce Irigaray and Julia Kristeva – forcing a timely reconsideration of the full spectrum of revolutionary practices by women in the years following the events of May ’68. Lavishly illustrated with over 200 images, the book also features an illuminating foreword by art historian Griselda Pollock.
