Book excerpt: Forget scratching and hair-pulling: once a girl gets past the age of eight, she knows her deadliest weapon is her tongue. Women’s Wicked Wit is a selection of women’s most acerbic comments on life, chock-full of quotations from Margaret Atwood, Jane Austen, Tallulah Bankhead, Hillary Clinton, Bette Davis, George Eliot, Zsa Zsa Gabor, Germaine Greer, Rita Hayworth, Erica Jong, Madonna, Katherine Mansfield, Marilyn Monroe, Dorothy Parker, Dolly Parton, Joan Rivers, Bessie Smith, Margaret Thatcher, Edith Wharton, Oprah Winfrey, and many more. Nothing and no one escapes these women’s glare: women on women, women on men and other animals, and a huge range of other subjects, from birth to burial, romance to revenge, and money to mortality. The whole proves that when it comes to cutting remarks, the female of the species is indeed deadlier than the male.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sir Winston Churchill remains a British hero, lauded for his oratorical skill. He wrote histories, biographies, memoirs, and even a novel, while his journalism, speeches and broadcasts run to millions of words. From 1940 he inspired and united the British people and guided their war effort. Behind the public figure, however, was a man of vast humanity and enormous wit. His most famous speeches and sayings have passed into history but many of his aphorisms, puns and jokes are less well-known. This enchanting collection brings together hundreds of his wittiest remarks as a record of all that was best about this endearing, conceited, talented and wildly funny Englishman. Also available in the series are collections from Shakespeare, To Be or Not To Be, and Oscar Wilde, I Can Resist Everything Except Temptation.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An in-depth view of the way popular female stereotypes were reflected in—and were shaped by—the portrayal of women in Disney’s animated features. In Good Girls and Wicked Witches, Amy M. Davis re-examines the notion that Disney heroines are rewarded for passivity. Davis proceeds from the assumption that, in their representations of femininity, Disney films both reflected and helped shape the attitudes of the wider society, both at the time of their first release and subsequently. Analyzing the construction of (mainly human) female characters in the animated films of the Walt Disney Studio between 1937 and 2001, she attempts to establish the extent to which these characterizations were shaped by wider popular stereotypes. Davis argues that it is within the most constructed of all moving images of the female form—the heroine of the animated film—that the most telling aspects of Woman as the subject of Hollywood iconography and cultural ideas of American womanhood are to be found. “A fascinating compilation of essays in which [Davis] examined the way Disney has treated female characters throughout its history.” —PopMatters
