Dr. Clarissa Pinkola Estés Presents Volume Five of the Dangerous Old Woman Series “What makes an elder, a heartfelt spirit, a clear mind, a talented heart, one who is young while old and old while young, an activist for the Soul? Is it formulae, schemas, lexicons? It could be. But also, and...

Possiamo definire il femminismo come desiderio di democrazia radicale, votato alla lotta per i diritti di tutt? coloro che sono costrett? a subire ingiustizie armate sistematicamente dal patriarcato. Perché il patriarcato, contrariamente a quanto si possa pensare, non è un processo che colpisce esclusivamente la sfera femminile; coinvolge invece tutti gli esseri il cui corpo viene definito attraverso l’uso che se ne fa.

"Le donne mentono sempre". "Le donne strumentalizzano le denunce di violenza per ottenere benefici". "Se l'è cercata". "Le donne usano il sesso per fare carriera". "Ma tu com'eri vestita?". Questi sono solo alcuni dei pregiudizi che la nostra società ha interiorizzato. Pregiudizi volti a neutralizzare la donna e a perpetuare una sudditanza e una discriminazione di genere in ogni settore, soprattutto in quello giuridico, che è il settore determinante perché tutto possa rimanere come è sempre stato. Viviamo immersi in questi pregiudizi.

This groundbreaking study is based on the author's systematic comparative analysis of the vast textile collections in Iceland, Greenland, Denmark, Scotland, and the Faroe Islands, materials that are largely unknown even to archaeologists and span 1,000 years. Through these garments and fragments, Hayeur Smith provides new insights into how the women of these island nations influenced international trade by producing cloth (vaðmál); how they shaped the development of national identities by creating clothing; and how they helped their communities survive climate change.

As two-income families find themselves ever more time-poor, many look to outsource to cleaners, nannies, and care workers. More and more, it would seem, people are finding themselves without either the emotional or the financial resources to take care of themselves and each other. The home, rather than an escape from the work and its pressures, is in fact an extension of it. After Work is a crucial corrective to this trend, extending its attention beyond paid jobs to the impact of domestic work upon familial relationships, social bonds, and our conceptions of domestic space.
