Download or read book Between Women written by Sharon Marcus and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2009-07-10 with total page 369 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Women in Victorian England wore jewelry made from each other's hair and wrote poems celebrating decades of friendship. They pored over magazines that described the dangerous pleasures of corporal punishment. A few had sexual relationships with each other, exchanged rings and vows, willed each other property, and lived together in long-term partnerships described as marriages. But, as Sharon Marcus shows, these women were not seen as gender outlaws. Their desires were fanned by consumer culture, and their friendships and unions were accepted and even encouraged by family, society, and church. Far from being sexless angels defined only by male desires, Victorian women openly enjoyed looking at and even dominating other women. Their friendships helped realize the ideal of companionate love between men and women celebrated by novels, and their unions influenced politicians and social thinkers to reform marriage law. Through a close examination of literature, memoirs, letters, domestic magazines, and political debates, Marcus reveals how relationships between women were a crucial component of femininity. Deeply researched, powerfully argued, and filled with original readings of familiar and surprising sources, Between Women overturns everything we thought we knew about Victorian women and the history of marriage and family life. It offers a new paradigm for theorizing gender and sexuality--not just in the Victorian period, but in our own.

Book Synopsis The I Do's and the I Dont's of Marriage by : Marcus Rogers
Download or read book The I Do's and the I Dont's of Marriage written by Marcus Rogers and published by . This book was released on 2019-02-21 with total page 174 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: I got married at the very young age of nineteen. I grew up in a single mother home and never really got to know my father well. I realized quickly that I didn't have a good understanding of what marriage was. Many of the things I knew about marriage came from television or the small things I saw from other families around me. I never had anyone teach me what it means to be a man, father, or even husband. I never had a good understanding of the differences between men and women. Do I went into marriage with a great disadvantage. As I started navigating through marriage problems and divorce, I started studying the word of God to show me what God's design for marriage was and what was His desire for men and women individually before they came together in a union. I realized quickly that I should have never got married at such a young age without knowing the things I know now twelve years later. I learned a lot the hard way, through the word of God, and trial and error. I wrote the I Dos and I Don'ts of Marriage for all those like me who maybe didn't have the best example set before them growing up. I wrote this book in the hopes that I could help many young people avoid the heartache I went through and caused, and also that marriages could be restored and saved since many of us are operating from a place of dysfunction and often don't realize it until it is too late.
