Download or read book Sharing the Stage written by Jane Slaughter and published by Cengage Learning. This book was released on 2002-08-23 with total page 500 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This chronologically arranged reader, designed as a supplement for the introductory western civilization course, centers on gender issues and women's history by including biographies of one man and one woman per chapter. Each chapter also includes background on the political and social climate of the period. The reader addresses three major teaching problems often found in the Western Civilization course: how to integrate women's history into traditional political and social narratives; how to explain to students that gender operates historically and that gender norms and constructs apply to both men and women; and how to capture and maintain student interest in distant events that seem to have little relevance to their lives.

Download or read book Women and Gender in the Western Past: To 1815 written by Katherine L. French and published by Houghton Mifflin College Division. This book was released on 2006-07 with total page 629 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This two-volume survey of the history of women in western civilization spans prehistory to the present. While devoting attention to women of all classes, religions, and ethnicities, the text examines political, economic, intellectual, and social history through the lens of gender. The narrative emphasizes women's agency over oppression and makes cutting-edge scholarship in women's history accessible to a wide audience. Five major themes run throughout the narrative: the relationship between key historical events and ideas and women's lives, the history of the family and sexuality, the social construction of gender, cultural assumptions about women (versus their actual lives), and self perception and women's place in western societies. A rich collection of primary sources and biographies reinforces these themes. Sources from the Past introduce students to primary sources on women's history, from the poetry of Sappho and Sarah Fyge Egerton, to proposals on women's rights during the French Revolution and the Hungarian Revolution of 1848, to modern documents, including an oral history of the Holocaust and an excerpt from the Kinsey Report. The Women's Lives feature tells the stories of interesting women, and engages students through the use of biography. Women profiled include the early Christian martyr Saint Perpetua, 19th century Russian activist Sofia Perovskaia, Harlem Renaissance writer Jessie Redman Fauset, and the Nobel-prize winning chemist Dorothy Crowfoot Hodgkin. Maps and photos enhance the learning experience by introducing students to geography and visual sources. Each chapter includes an extensive Notes section documenting the wealth of recent scholarship on women and gender. A short list of Suggested Readings provides a useful starting point for student exploration.
