Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Girl Warriors: A Book for Girls Twilight was fast closing in around the little reader, and all the letters on the page were beginning to dance up and down. Impatiently shaking herself, Winnifred slipped down from her chair, gave the fire a little poke, and settled herself on the floor in front of it, holding the book so that she could see to read by the flickering light. But she had scarcely begun to do so, when the door opened. She gave a little jump, and turned quite red in the face.

Book excerpt: Winnifred Burton sat all alone in the pleasant sitting-room, curled up in an easy-chair so large that her little figure was almost lost in its great depths. The fire in the open grate burned brightly, sending out little tongues of flame which made dancing shadows on the walls and ceiling, and flashed ever and anon on the bright hair and face and dress of the little girl sitting so quiet before it. It was a dismal day near the close of January. Snow had been falling steadily all day, and the window-sill was already piled so high with it that by and by it would have to be brushed away in order to close the shutters. But Winnifred was so absorbed in the book she was reading that she knew nothing of all this. The book was a new edition of "The Giant Killer; or, The Battle That All Must Fight." She was just reading how the brave but tempted Fides lay in the dreadful Pit of Despair; of how he had fallen back, bruised and bleeding, time after time, in his endeavors to cut and climb his way out, before he found the little cord of love which was strong enough to draw him out with scarcely an effort of his own.

Download or read book Girl Warriors written by Svenja Hohenstein and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2019-06-19 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Quest narratives are as old as Western culture. In stories like The Odyssey, The Lord of the Rings, Star Wars and Harry Potter, men set out on journeys, fight battles and become heroes. Women traditionally feature in such stories as damsels in need of rescue or as the prizes at the end of heroic quests. These narratives perpetuate predominant gender roles by casting men as active and women as passive. Focusing on stories in which popular teenage heroines--Buffy Summers, Katniss Everdeen and Disney's Princess Merida--embark on daring journeys, this book explores what happens when traditional gender roles and narrative patterns are subverted. The author examines representations of these characters across various media--film, television, novels, posters, merchandise, fan fiction and fan art, and online memes--that model concepts of heroism and girlhood inspired by feminist ideas.

Download or read book Fight Like a Girl written by Michael G. Lewis and published by Fitzroy Books. This book was released on 2022-01-15 with total page 103 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Women have been successfully fighting in combat roles since the beginning of time. During Michael G. Lewis's research, he discovered women warriors in nearly every century, country, and culture. Their differences are many - some were queens, some prostitutes, some fought for country, others for religion, while others were motivated by blind loyalty, bloodlust, fame, revenge, and even plain old fashioned greed. Yes, their differences are many, but they are more defined by striking similarities - all were smart, stubborn, almost supernaturally brave, and extraordinary. Their stories are inspiring but also chilling. Their exploits tragic, triumphant, awe inspiring, and even humorous. But their stories are unknown. These women warriors - these "Band of Sisters," as it were - had far reaching effects on the entire world, and their stories deserve to be told.

Book excerpt: Inside the heart of every girl lives a fierce, mighty warrior just waiting to spring into action. You are your own biggest hero. You are a Warrior Girl. Warriors like you are born with a powerful fighting spirit to help you overcome your life's challenges. You carry it with you everywhere you go, and it's always available when you need it. You don't need anyone to make you tough--you're already tough. When you choose to believe in your own strength, you arm yourself with courage and confidence. There's no challenge too big to tackle once you embrace the warrior power you hold inside you! Inspired by the discovery of her beloved grandmother's family connection to Japanese samurai--and the eight virtues of samurai warriors, called bushido--Meika Yates Hines shows girls of all ages simple ways to get in touch with the resilient, powerful fighting warrior spirits that live in their hearts. Part message of love and guidance from a mother to her three daughters and part girl-power manifesto, The Warrior Girl Way encourages girls to battle through their fears, cultivate their grit, and trust their instincts as they face the obstacles of adolescence and beyond. As the author's stirring full-color mixed-media images illustrate, no two Warrior Girls are alike--each possesses her own unique skills and talents. The Warrior Girl Way--it's like getting an awesome pep talk from a trusted girl-power sensei.

Download or read book Athena s Daughters written by Frances Early and published by Syracuse University Press. This book was released on 2003-04-01 with total page 210 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is unique in its critical inquiry into the new woman warrior's appropriation of violence and the Western war narrative. Informed by feminist theoretical debates regarding women's new roles, the authors delve into the meaning of that appropriation for alternative storytelling. To date, television's "ferocious few" have received little scholarly attention. By inviting a variety of perspectives, editors Frances Early and Kathleen Kennedy provide a cutting-edge forum to recognize women's increasing role in popular culture as they are cast as action heroes. As a timely and accessible work, this book will appeal to scholars, feminists, cultural critics, and the general reader.
Download or read book Tough Girls written by Sherrie A. Inness and published by University of Pennsylvania Press. This book was released on 2018-01-09 with total page 236 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Tough girls are everywhere these days. Whether it is Ripley battling a swarm of monsters in the Aliens trilogy or Captain Janeway piloting the starship Voyager through space in the continuing Star Trek saga, women strong in both body and mind have become increasingly popular in the films, television series, advertisements, and comic books of recent decades. In Tough Girls, Sherrie A. Inness explores the changing representations of women in all forms of popular media and what those representations suggest about shifting social mores. She begins her examination of tough women in American popular culture with three popular television shows of the 1960s and '70s—The Avengers, Charlie's Angels, and The Bionic Woman—and continues through such contemporary pieces as a recent ad for Calvin Klein jeans and current television series such as The X-files and Xena: Warrior Princess. Although all these portrayals show women who can take care of themselves in ways that have historically been seen as uniquely male, they also variously undercut women's toughness. She argues that even some of the strongest depictions of women have perpetuated women's subordinate status, using toughness in complicated ways to break or bend gender stereotypes while simultaneously affirming them.
