Download or read book A Woman's Education written by Jill Ker Conway and published by Vintage. This book was released on 2002-11-12 with total page 159 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The beloved bestselling author of The Road from Coorain and True North continues her remarkable autobiography with an account of her decade as the first woman president of Smith College–a time when she was faced with the challenge of reinventing women’s education and with the demands of her own life. Conway took on the helm at Smith at the height of exploding culture wars and the rising popularity of coeducation. With the college’s future at stake, she battled conservative faculty, ossified traditions, and doubtful funders to turn Smith into a place committed to preparing young women for the new realities of the future. Through it all, Conway served as an inspiration to thousands of students, while balancing the demands of her public role against the private pressures of coping with her husband’s bipolar disorder. A moving tribute to the value of single-sex education and to one woman’s achievements, A Woman’s Education is sure to become a classic.

Excerpt: ... private houses, its palace, shrine, and many interesting relics of primeval civilization. In the estimation of an English archaeologist, it was the most perfect example yet discovered of a small Mycenaean town, and was creditable not only to Miss Boyd, but to the intellectual culture which she had received at the College. Two years later, Miss Boyd was again granted leave of absence to continue her excavations in Crete, with the assistance of Miss Edith H. Hall, of the Class of 1899. In a land where civic restraints were comparatively weak, these two women, with no protection by resident police or soldiers, through the simple force of their scholarship and their personal character, were able to direct from eighty to one hundred men without molestation or insubordination, and to bring to light many valuable illustrations of ancient life and art. Duplicates of some of the prehistoric pottery which Miss Boyd discovered at Gournia were given to the College, and an illustrated volume containing an account of her work was published by the Trustees. This year, the Smith College Association for Christian Work printed for the first time an annual report of its operations, showing that $2053.23 had been raised by the students for charitable purposes. Out of this sum aid had been given to College Settlements Associations; to the Needlework Guild; to the Carlisle Indian School; to the relief work in China; to the American College for Women in Madrid; to New York City Missions; to the support of a medical missionary in India, of a nurse in Shanghai, and of Bible women in Madras and Ceylon. The association had provided also teachers for the home-culture clubs and mission schools in the city, given remunerative work for needy students, and had directed...

Book excerpt: Smith College art professors Davis and Leshko showcase 100 paintings and sculptures from their institution's vaunted collection, encompassing Americans from Gilbert Stuart to Louise Nevelson and Europeans from Corot to Henry Moore. In the introduction, how and why Smith became steward of such a fine body of work is ascribed to the school's high-minded mission and its generous alumni donors. The rest of the book is divided into two sections, one American and the other European.

Download or read book Managing White Supremacy written by J. Douglas Smith and published by Univ of North Carolina Press. This book was released on 2003-11-03 with total page 432 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Tracing the erosion of white elite paternalism in Jim Crow Virginia, Douglas Smith reveals a surprising fluidity in southern racial politics in the decades between World War I and the Supreme Court's 1954 Brown v. Board of Education decision. Smith draws on official records, private correspondence, and letters to newspapers from otherwise anonymous Virginians to capture a wide and varied range of black and white voices. African Americans emerge as central characters in the narrative, as Smith chronicles their efforts to obtain access to public schools and libraries, protection under the law, and the equitable distribution of municipal resources. This acceleration of black resistance to white supremacy in the years before World War II precipitated a crisis of confidence among white Virginians, who, despite their overwhelming electoral dominance, felt increasingly insecure about their ability to manage the color line on their own terms. Exploring the everyday power struggles that accompanied the erosion of white authority in the political, economic, and educational arenas, Smith uncovers the seeds of white Virginians' resistance to civil rights activism in the second half of the twentieth century.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On the eve of the twentieth century, Peru seemed like a profitable and yet fairly unexploited country. Both foreign capitalists and local state makers envisioned how remote highland areas were essential to a sustainable national economy. Mobilizing Andean populations lay at the core of this endeavor. In his groundbreaking book, The Rural State, Javier Puente uncovers the surprising and overlooked ways that Peru’s rural communities formed the political nation-state that still exists today. Puente documents how people living in the Peruvian central sierra in the twentieth century confronted emerging and consolidating powers of state and capital and engaged in an ongoing struggle over increasingly elusive subsistence and autonomies. Over the years, policy, politics, and social turmoil shaped the rural, mountainous regions of Peru until violent unrest, perpetrated by the Shining Path and other revolutionary groups, unveiled the extent, limits, and fractures of a century-long process of rural state formation. Examining the conflicts between one rural community and the many iterations of statehood in the central sierra of Peru, The Rural State offers a fresh perspective on how the Andes became la sierra, how pueblos became comunidades, and how indígenas became campesinos.
