Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores and traces the progressive activism and radical ideas of several elite women in Italy beginning in the early 20th century. It discusses the shared political culture that shaped the thinking and the activity of these women, mainly oriented towards political philanthropy and work, seen as the cornerstone of a comprehensive redefinition of gender relations. It also discusses the connections linking them to an international network of women involved in similar political actions and economic initiatives addressing women’s' interests, as well as their legacy for the next generations. With essays from a range of scholars, this book provides an interdisciplinary framework for understanding these activists and deals with methodological and historiographical issues in reconstructing women’s contribution to history.

Download or read book Killing the Hidden Waters written by Charles Bowden and published by University of Texas Press. This book was released on 2003-11 with total page 214 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the introduction to the new edition: “I’ll tell you where I went wrong. The faucet in the kitchen always becomes the reality we believe, and the periodic droughts, one of which for much of the nineties savaged the West, remain a fantasy. This happens each and every day as the water roars from the faucet and the skies remain dangerously blue.” —Charles Bowden In the quarter-century since his first book, Killing the Hidden Waters, was published in 1977, Charles Bowden has become one of the premier writers on the American environment, rousing a generation of readers to both the wonder and the tragedy of humanity’s relationship with the land. Revisiting his earliest work with a new introduction, “What I Learned Watching the Wells Go Down,” Bowden looks back at his first effort to awaken people to the costs and limits of using natural resources through a simple and obvious example—water. He drives home the point that years of droughts, rationing, and even water wars have done nothing to slake the insatiable consumption of water in the American West. Even more timely now than in 1977, Killing the Hidden Waters remains, in Edward Abbey’s words, “the best all-around summary I’ve read yet, anywhere, of how our greed-driven, ever-expanding urban-industrial empire is consuming, wasting, poisoning, and destroying not only the resource basis of its own existence, but also the vital, sustaining basis of life everywhere.”

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This “gripping social history” (Publishers Weekly), with all the passion and pathos of a classic opera, chronicles the riveting first campaign against the death penalty waged in 1895 by American pioneer activist, Cora Slocomb, Countess of Brazzà, to save the life of a twenty-year-old illiterate Italian immigrant, Maria Barbella, who killed the man who had abused her. Previously published as The Trials of Maria Barbella. In 1895, a twenty-two-year-old Italian seamstress named Maria Barbella was accused of murdering her lover, Domenico Cataldo, after he seduced her and broke his promise to marry her. Following a sensational trial filled with inept lawyers, dishonest reporters and editors, and a crooked judge repaying political favors, the illiterate immigrant became the first woman sentenced to the newly invented electric chair at Sing Sing, where she is also the first female prisoner. Behind the scenes, a corporate war raged for the monopoly of electricity pitting two giants, Edison and Westinghouse with Nikola Tesla at his side, against each other. Enter Cora Slocomb, an American-born Italian aristocrat and activist, who launched the first campaign against the death penalty to save Maria. Rallying the New York press, Cora reached out across the social divide—from the mansions of Fifth Avenue to the tenements of Little Italy. Maria’s “crime of honor” quickly becomes a cause celebre, seizing the nation’s attention. Idanna Pucci, Cora’s great-granddaughter, masterfully recounts this astonishing story by drawing on original research and documents from the US and Italy. This dramatic page-turner, interwoven with twists and unexpected turns, grapples with the tragedy of immigration, capital punishment, ethnic prejudice, criminal justice, corporate greed, violence against women, and a woman’s right to reject the role of victim. Over a century later, this story is as urgent as ever.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Ampharita: An American Idyll To the casual reader the illustrations which the author has made to accompany this book will be of interest principally on account of their quaintness, but for the archaeologist and anthropologist those of the American Id'yll will, we hope, have far more than a transitory charm. They are the fruit of a careful research, and consist of studies in pen and ink made from original specimens and photographs recently collected in Mexico on an expedition inspired by the United States Bureau of Ethnology. The hero of the story had, of course, made a valuable collection of just such objects; but his captors had subsequently destroyed the fruits of his re searches; A few rude sketches on the fly-leaf of one little note-book were all that he could show the author when she met him in Mexico. The collection in the Smithsonian Museum proved, therefore, an invaluable resource. The design of the Indian shield on the cover of the American Idyll is copied from a Pima war-shield forming part of a private collection. The fac-simile was obtained through the kindness of Mr. Thomas Wilson, the able curator of l the Department of Ethnology of the National Museum at Washington, who has exhaustivelystudied the wonderful Swastika or Zodiacal cross which adorns it. The descriptive text with regard to it is from his pen. Dr. J. H. Mccormick, the Secretary of the United States National Folk Lore Society with the assistance of the experts at Washington, selected the specimens which have served as models for the illustrations of the Fauna and Flora of the Sierra Madre, and with these gentlemen he prepared the explanatory notes thereon.
