Languages : en
Pages : 350
Book Description
Editor Biography:Josefa Ros Velasco (1987) received degrees in Philosophy (2010) and in Advertising and Public Relations (2011) with Honors from the University of Murcia. She also received a Master's in Contemporary Thought (2011) and in Teacher Education (2012) with Honors from the same institution. Excellent Program of Doctor in Philosophy at University Complutense of Madrid. She is FPU scholar by Spanish Ministry of Education, Culture and Sports in the Department of the History of Philosophy (UCM). DAAD scholar at Internationales Zentrum f�r Kultur und Technikforschung (IZKT Stuttgart Universit�t) in 2013; Deutsches Literatur-Archiv Marbach (DLA) "Einmonatiges" Scholar in 2014; FPU short-term research scholar at DLA in 2014. Research groups: "Saavedra Fajardo Library of Hispanic Political Thought" (HUM2007-60799); "History and Videogames: the impact of new media entertainment on the medieval past knowledge" (HAR2011-25548). Research areas: Hans Blumenberg's philosophy, Anthropology, Prehistory, Hipochondria, Boredom. Papers (selection): Paradigms for a Metaphorology of the Cosmos, Studies in History and Philosophy of Physics, 52 (2015); The Evolution of Language: An Anthropological Approach, Evolutionary Anthropology, 25 (2016).Book Description:Presently, our concern for the social, political and economic situation of women remains as valid as it was in the last century. Despite the progress made worldwide, we continue to witness a reality in which gender issues generate injustice, lack of freedom and violation of human rights. Researchers constantly strive to analyze women phenomena and denounce its consequences in the attempt to achieve an egalitarian world in which differences are understood and respected. This book is one of the fruits of such efforts. Scholars interested in women's issues have joined in this volume in order to register, through their work, a commitment to progress towards a better society. With this work, the authors attempt to promote the voice of women who, even in the twenty-first century, feel deprived of their well-deserved security. At the same time, they attempt not only to keep alive the awareness about women's situation, but also create an academic meeting point that shows the most current areas of research around women's issue. Through this collaboration, the authors hope to achieve a review of contemporary approaches to women's studies. It is for all the above that they have entitled this book Feminism: Past, Present, and Future Perspectives, because the authors are going to address how humanity is coping with the proposals of the last century. The authors want to show the most current points of view on women's issues through researches that are taking place in different geographic places, thanks to a procedure based on the case studies and methods. Finally, they will attempt to clarify what the future holds for women and state their demands firsthand.Target Audience:i)

Women Writing Across Cultures
Author: Pelagia Goulimari
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1351586262
Category : Literary Collections
Languages : en
Pages : 740
Book Description
This collection brings together an international, multicultural, multilingual, and multidisciplinary community of scholars and practitioners in different media seeking to question and re-theorize the contested terms of our title: “woman,” “writing,” “women’s writing,” and “across.” “Culture” is translated into an open series of interconnected terms and questions. How might one write across national cultures; or across a national and a minority culture; or across disciplines, genres, and media; or across synchronic discourses that are unequal in power; or across present and past discourses or present and future discourses? The collection explores and develops recent feminist, queer, and transgender theory and criticism, and also aesthetic practice. “Writing across” assumes a number of orientations: posthumanist; transtemporal; transnationalist; writing across discourses, disciplines, media, genres, genders; writing across pronouns – he, she, they; writing across literature, non-literary texts, and life. This book was originally published as a special issue of Angelaki: Journal of the Theoretical Humanities.

Ontology after Philosophical Psychology
Author: Michela Bella
Publisher: Rowman & Littlefield
ISBN: 1498560636
Category : Philosophy
Languages : en
Pages : 271
Book Description
Ontology after Philosophical Psychology addresses the question of William James’s continuity of consciousness, with a view to its possible actualizations. In particular, Michela Bella critically delineates James's discourse. In the wake of Darwin's theory of evolution at the end of the nineteenth century, James's reflections emerged in the field of physiological psychology, where he developed for the case for a renewed epistemology and a new metaphysical framework to help us understand the most interesting theories and scientific discoveries about the human mind. Bella’s analysis of the theme of continuity makes it possible to appreciate, both historically and theoretically, the importance of James's gradual transition from making observations of experimental psychology on the continuity of thought to developing an epistemological and ontological argument that continuity is a characteristic of experience and reality. This analysis makes it possible both to clarify James's position in relation to his historical context and to highlight the most original results of his work.

Speaking of Feminism
Author: Rachel F. Seidman
Publisher: UNC Press Books
ISBN: 1469653095
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 265
Book Description
From the Women's Marches to the MeToo movement, it is clear that feminist activism is still alive and well in the twenty-first century. But how does a new generation of activists understand the work of the movement today? How are their strategies and goals unfolding? What worries feminist leaders most, and what are their hopes for the future? In Speaking of Feminism, Rachel F. Seidman presents insights from twenty-five feminist activists from around the United States, ranging in age from twenty to fifty. Allowing their voices to take center stage through the use of in-depth oral history interviews, Seidman places their narratives in historical context and argues that they help explain how recent new forms of activism developed and flourished so quickly. These individuals' compelling life stories reveal their hard work to build flexible networks, bridge past and present, and forge global connections. This book offers essential reading for anyone seeking to understand the contemporary American women's movement in all its diversity. Interviewees include: Noorjahan Akbar Soledad Antelada Elisa Camahort Page Park Cannon Soraya Chemaly Dana Edell Kate Farrar Ivanna Gonzalez Tara Hall Trisha Harms Kwajelyn Jackson Holly Kearl Emily May Kenya McKnight Samhita Mukhopadhyay Ho Nguyen Katie Orenstein Patina Park Erin Parrish Andrea Pino Joanne Smith Rebecca Traister Alice Wilder Kabo Yang Rye Young
