Book Synopsis Women in Rock Memoirs by : Marika Ahonen
Download or read book Women in Rock Memoirs written by Marika Ahonen and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2023 with total page 265 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Women in Rock Memoirs vindicates the role of women in rock music. The chapters examine memoirs written by women in rock from 2010 onwards to explore how the artists narrate their life experiences and difficulties they had to overcome, not only as musicians but as women. The book includes memoirs written by both well-known and lesser-known artists and artists from both inside and outside of the Anglo-American sphere. The essays by scholars from different research areas and countries around the world are divided into three parts according to the overall themes: Memory, Trauma, and Writing; Authenticity, Sexuality, and Sexism; and Aging, Performance, and the Image. They explore the dynamics of memoir as a genre by discussing the similarities and differences between the women in rock and the choices they have made when writing their books. As a whole, they help form a better understanding of today's possibilities and future challenges for women in rock music.
Download or read book Dark Asylum written by E. S Thomson and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2017-11-07 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Set in a crumbling Victorian asylum where a gruesome murder is committed, this sequel to Beloved Poison explores the early science of brain study while giving chilling insight into an asylum's workings. 1851, Angel Meadow Asylum. Dr. Rutherford, principal physician to the insane, is found dead, his head bashed in, his ears cut off, his lips and eyes stitched closed. The police direct their attention towards Angel Meadow's inmates, but to Jem Flockhart and Will Quartermain the crime is an act of calculated retribution, rather than of madness. To discover the truth Jem and Will must pursue the story through the darkest corners of the city—from the depths of a notorious rookery, to the sordid rooms of London's brothels, the gallows, the graveyard, the convict fleet and then back to the asylum. In a world where guilt and innocence, crime and atonement, madness and reason, are bounded by hypocrisy, ambition and betrayal, Jem and Will soon find themselves caught up in a web of dark secrets and hidden identities.
Book Synopsis Women's Struggle for Higher Education in Russia, 1855-1900 by : Christine Johanson
Download or read book Women's Struggle for Higher Education in Russia, 1855-1900 written by Christine Johanson and published by McGill-Queen's Press - MQUP. This book was released on 1987-01-01 with total page 168 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Unlike contemporary Soviet and Western accounts which emphasize the involvement of educated women in the revolutionary movement, Christine Johanson investigates the relationship between developments in women's education and domestic politics of the post-Crimean War era. The author shows how the particular nature of autocratic rule under Alexander II facilitated the establishment of university-level courses for women, and demonstrates that Russian women who cooperated with the government in order to increase their educational opportunities far outnumbered the female revolutionists who sought to overthrow it. And, while acknowledging that Russian radicalism gave enormous encouragement to women's pursuit of university study, this book shows that it was the support of progressive statesmen and academics which allowed the creation of higher educational facilities for women. The attitudes, aspirations, and frustrations of women who enrolled in these educational facilities are also examined. Considerable attention is given to the training and practice of female physicians and to the testing of their skills and commitment to social service in tradition-bound peasant villages and the field hospitals of the Russo-Turkish war. The concluding chapter explored the conservative reaction following the assassination of Alexander II and the subsequent closure of women's advanced educational facilities.

Book excerpt: Continue the Chronicles of the Ordained Saga with The Blessing! The Secundus’s reign met a fiery end during the Time of Separation. Once more, the night sky bears only one moon, but the cost of peace has been steep. Witheleghe broke from the physical plane that once connected the realm to the outside world to protect the kingdom from Asmeodai. There is no way in or out of the Witheleghe except through the mighty fortress—Nottesdone. Scarladin also suffered. Cyaika's attack saw Yucca burn, and the cathedral crumble. The following years were marked by an uneasy peace secured through the alliance between Witheleghe and Scarladin. To strengthen the fragile bond between the two kingdoms, there has been a betrothal of King Darius’s eldest daughter, Saoirse, to King Edulf’s heir, Mithelk. A marriage destined to happen for both kings have sworn a Meitfe Oath that their children would marry. The children have grown up beside each other within Nottesdone, but the tension between kings has not lessened. King Edulf has been unforgiving toward the Flandigana king, believing King Darius has deceived him once too often. Yet, King Edulf does not dare oppose the wielder of Vaellyn magic. King Darius has his own worries, but none greater than the persistent whispers that Asmeodai still walks and threatens all in his path. King Darius has done all within his power to ensure that the line of those chosen to be the Ordained will not falter. The fate of both kingdoms depends upon those chosen few, and the trials ahead will test their resolve and unity like never before. Against the backdrop of lies and deceit, murder and betrayal, the Ordained face their greatest challenge. For when Asmeodai returns this time, there is no one safe from his wrath. Follow the sweeping fantasy adventure entrenched in royal intrigue, powerful foes, and magical exploits. Beware—the saga contains sword & sorcery, dragons and fleogans, and witches and wizards.
