In A Vindication of the Rights of Woman (1792), Mary Wollstonecraft promotes her case for women's education by contrasting a profligate, coquettish widow with her reasonable, self-controlled counterpart. Wollstonecraft suggests that the reasonable widow disciplines her desires, in part, by internalizing a vision of her dead husband's gaze. This article provides an overview of the literary history of the dead husband's eyes and English property law regarding widows before placing Wollstonecraft's widow alongside eighteenth-century theories about the internalized gaze. Prior to Wollstonecraft, the dead husband's surveillance was usually imagined by male authors who assumed a prescriptive tone, wielding the gaze as a panoptic device. Wollstonecraft's revision of earlier treatments complicates that dynamic. She envisions a widow who welcomes her husband's eyes with a performative flair before asserting the authority of her own gaze. In the process, Wollstonecraft transforms a degrading cultural imperative into an impetus for the widow's empowerment.

This article analyzes the reaction of the West German press to the powerful peace movement that gripped the Federal Republic of Germany between 1979 and 1984. Following NATO's double track decision and Russia's invasion of Afghanistan, thousands of pacifist and peace activists participated in rallies, meetings, and sit-ins to protest above all the politics of NATO. Unnerved by the amassing of nuclear, protesters expressed their fears and anxieties highly visible on placards and in pamphlets. This public display of "fear of atom" led to an intensive media debate about the validity and possible dangers of the protesters' emotionality. The press's coverage of the peace movement and the question of how protesters expressed their fears turned into a discussion over legitimate political participation.

This article situates the establishment of the Bundeswehr and the implementation of compulsory military service in the 1950s and early 1960s within contemporary efforts to define a “sexual-moral order” for the Federal Republic of Germany. It argues that West Germany's rearmament offered contemporaries an opportunity to stipulate not only acceptable soldierly behavior, but also adequate male behavior in general. In the context of heightened concerns about juvenile delinquents (so-called Halbstarken), female prostitution, homosexuality, and the distribution of pornographic materials, West German citizens became interested in the social and sexual conduct of Bundeswehr soldiers and officers. Whereas some still considered the military to be a “school of the nation” and of proper masculinity, others worried about the armed forces as a possible breeding ground for immorality. Partly sharing these concerns, government representatives, members of the Bundestag, church officials, and mil...

“Nuanced, sweeping, well argued, and on the important subject of the self negotiating between external morality and legal authority, this study is relevant to issues today. Santangelo uses a wide variety of resources from the fields of literature, philosophy, religious studies, and newer subfields including olfactory studies, and more—all of which he impressively and ably analyzes, bringing together and thereby creating bridges between traditional disciplinary fields. The subject of the self, describing resources within Ming-Qing China for thinking about the individual, as well as comparing these views to contemporary ideas about the self, is a significant and important scholarly topic. Santangelo is more than well equipped to take on this challenge, and he does it admirably well.” —Pauline Lee, Saint Louis University

Presidential election years are a reminder of the religious and regional differences in the United States. The South is now the stronghold and export center of the fast-growing Pentecostal tradition counting over 500 million adherents worldwide. This result found its origin as a mustard seed in a region resisting this Yankee import. In The Fire Spreads Randall Stephens, assistant professor of history at Eastern Nazarene College in Quincy, Massachusetts, puts the Pentecostal tradition in the South in a broad historical perspective in a masterfully researched and well-written book. The book seeks to explain the nature of this change and its effects. Earlier histories explained the attraction of Pentecostalism from an alleged need among the lower classes for escapism, but none paid attention to the regional roots. This oversight was caused by the peculiar regional character which did not adhere to white supremacy nor to the Lost Cause, a Southern interpretation of the defeat in the Civil War (1861-1865) as defending just causes such as States' Rights and a noble culture. Stephens opens his fascinating story by setting the stage for a strong Calvinist-inspired pessimism in the South which resisted the Methodist emphasis on perfectionism and other human agencies campaigning for reform and progress. Perfectionism originated in the North as shortcut to a sinless life. This idea deviated from the accepted Methodist notion of a life-long struggle against sin and evil. The conditions for acceptance of the holiness culture in the South were poor because its source was suspect. The Northern cities in which perfectionism thrived were not popular in the South and contrasted with the strict discipline prominent in Southern religious practices. Moreover, the breakdown of the lines of communication between the sections before the Civil War and the fear for being overwhelmed by carpetbaggers after the war, made this Northern import even more suspect. However, other factors prepared the ground for its rooting: memories of past revivals and a strong criticism of contemporary materialism. A restorationist theology, a return to the simple gospel in which perfectionism fitted nicely, promised redress. The breakthrough of the holiness movement in the South happened in the 1880s and 1890s. Stephens rejects a class explanation, since poor as well as affluent people were equally attracted to the holiness message. He seems to give some credit to the explanation that rural people feared urban commercialism, but could have taken a stronger position by comparing this attitude to resistance

In the first two decades of this century, when literary manifestoes were very much in vogue, the burning issue was that of cultural renewal: Was it to come from within, by reappropriating the past, or from without, by celebrating the present and incorporating its chaotic norms? Neo-classicists and symbolists squared off against Futurists and Expressionists. The revival of folklore, myth and metaphysics was countered by the supremacy of the masses, the machine and the psyche. One rarely thinks of editors and translators, those workhorses of the literary establishment, venturing forth into such treacherous terrain, but as Dov Sadan was the first to note,1 the Jewish centers of Odessa and Warsaw with Bialik at the head of one and Frischman at the head of the other, were divided over this very issue, and much of their competing energies were chan neled into the work of translation. Each was additionally in charge of the means of production?Bialik as editor-in-chief of the Dvir Publishing House and Frischman of Stiebel?so that policy was translated into the distribution of real books. Bialik's crowning achievement in this area, done in collaboration with Ravnitzky, was the ingathering and Hebraizing of rabbinic aggadah (Sefer ha'ag gadah, 1909), while Frischman produced a prodigious number of translations into Hebrew of everything from Oscar Wilde to Rabindranath Tagore. Bialik and Ravnitzky, not to be outdone, cast their Jewish net bilingually and promptly translated their magnum opus into Yiddish (Yidishe agodes, 1910). This tactic of recycling the past to fertilize the present was itself part of a recurrent pheno menon in Jewish literary history, for Khone Shmeruk reminds us of another time, in the Italian Renaissance, when all at once there appeared such classic 1.

The purpose of the research is to evaluate the effectiveness of high potassium diet and low sodium diet in reducing blood pressure for patients with hypertension. It is a quasi-experimental research with two group pre - post design, the research is conducted in health center of Sokaraja II, Banyumas. A simple random sampling is applied. We divide 28 subjects into 2 categories: 14 subject apply topotasium diet and 14 subject apply sodium diet. The intervension of high potasium diet is by giving the subject 2 Ambon bananas each day for a week. While the low natrium diet is done by giving a tea spoon of salt eaeh day for a week. The results shows that there was no difference between systolic and diastolic blood pressure before and after administration of a high potassium diet, which is the systolic (p value = 0.13) and diastolic (p value = 0.24), low-sodium diet cannot reduce blood pressure significantly (p value = 0.12). However, the diastolic blood pressure is significantly different...

This article presents a Latin text and English translation of a new letter from Silvestro Lando, chancellor of Verona, to the humanist Isotta Nogarola. In the letter, Lando urges Nogarola to publish her epistolary exchange with Ludovico Foscarini, governor of Verona, in which they had engaged in a disputation over the relative guilt of Adam and Eve. This disputation is the work now known as the Defense of Eve (De pari aut impari Evae atque Adae peccato). Lando's letter provides valuable evidence about the Defense of Eve, regarding such fundamental issues as the text's authorship, date, and the early reception of the work. The letter, which portrays Nogarola as a public intellectual and a source of civic pride, also adds to our understanding of the ways in which male support enabled the spread of women's writing in Renaissance Italy, as well as of the limits of this supportive stance. Isotta Nogarola (c. 1418-1466) was a humanist from Verona whose surviving works include a substantial correspondence, at least one oration, an elegy, and her famous Defense of Eve, which traditionally bears the Latin title De pari aut impari Evae atque Adae peccato. These works, all of which are in Latin, have received a single modern critical edition, that of Jenő Ábel (Latinized in the edition as "Eugenius Abel") in 1886. 1 When * We offer our grateful thanks to Toon Van Houdt for an editorial process that improved this piece considerably. The anonymous reviewers provided incisive feedback. Ingrid Sperber, Toon Van Houdt, Raf Van Rooy and Xander Feys offered suggestions on the reading of certain passages of the text, which saved us from several blunders and pointed the way forward on some intractable textual issues; on the text we also benefited from the advice of Ide François.

İmparatorluktan ulus-devlete geçiş döneminin iki milliyetçi kadın yazarının, Halide Edib’in Yeni Turan (1912), Ateşten Gömlek (1922) ve Vurun Kahpeye (1923), Müfide Ferit’in Aydemir (1918) ve Pervaneler (1924) romanlarını inceleyen bu makale, milliyetçi kadın yazınındaki kadınlık kurgularını ve bu kurguların değişimini incelemeyi amaçlamaktadır. İncelenen eserlerde milliyetçi kadın yazını, bir yandan kadın karakterleri merkeze alırken bir yandan da kadınlara atfedilen milliyetçi rollerin çeşitliliğini, kadınların milliyetçi projelere katılımının sınırlarını ve bu sınırların aşılabileceği istisnai durumları ortaya koymaktadır. Bu milliyetçi romanlarda kadın karakterler geleneksel ile modern, Doğu ile Batı, özgürlük ve namus arasındaki hassas bir denge üzerinde ve bu dengenin korunması adına diğer kadınlardan ve ailevi bağlardan uzak olarak kurgulanmışlardır. Böylece kadın yazarlar, romanlarında onları milliyetçi hareket içinde kurtarıcılığa, düşünürlüğe, ilham kaynaklığına kadar değişik rollerde anlatabilmiş ve onlara bir özgürlük alanı ve faillik sağlayabilmişlerdir. İncelenen eserler arasında ulus-devlet sonrası yazılan Vurun Kahpeye ve Pervaneler ise bu alanın kapandığına ve ulus-devlet/sömürgecilik/bağımsızlık sonrası milliyetçiliklerin kadınlarla kurdukları ilişkilerin farklılığına dair ipuçları içermektedir.

Molto si è scritto e prodotto sull’incendio a New York della Triangle del 25 marzo 1911. Studiosi, attivisti, artisti ne hanno ripreso aspetti e sfaccettature in diverse occasioni, seguendo nel tempo lo sviluppo dell’approccio alla storia delle donne in emigrazione, che «negli ultimi anni è passata da campo descrittivo compensatorio, seguendo un itinerario imprescindibile per un soggetto nuovo alla storiografia, a categoria interpretativa con l’assunzione dell’analisi di genere per lo studio dei fenomeni storici, sociologici e così via». In tale ampio quadro di riferimento, un apporto decisamente originale viene adesso consegnato da "Le ragazze della Triangle. Saggi intimi e politici sull’incendio di una fabbrica newyorkese", a cura di Edwige Giunta e Mary Anne Trasciatti (Iacobelli editore 2024).I diciannove saggi del volume propongono diverse prospettive di lettura della tragedia che segnerà profondamente la storia del lavoro femminile (ma non solo), incoraggiando l’impegno sindacale e la partecipazione alle rivendicazioni per la sicurezza dell’ambiente lavorativo e un salario giusto e garantito.

Marina Zanetti (Torino, 1904 - Milano, 1953) fu la prima dirigente femminile nella storia dello sport italiano. Dopo aver perso il proprio incarico nella Federazione Italiana Di Atletica Leggera (FIDAL) nel 1933, Marina fu costretta ad aspettare le Olimpiadi di Berlino per ritornare in pista: dal 1936 al 1938, lavorò per la federazione internazionale della pallacanestro (FIBA), allo scopo di curare la diffusione del basket femminile nel nostro paese, presentato come il gioco perfetto per le ragazze dell’Italia fascista. Nel 1940 Marina si sposò con Antonio Anastasia, un piccolo dirigente fascista di Torino: per questo smise ogni attività dirigenziale in campo sportivo. Nel 1947, poi, si sposò una seconda volta, con Carlo Gustavo Kunz. Nel Secondo Dopoguerra, Marina visse nell’ombra, probabilmente a causa del suo scomodo passato: quando si spense, nel 1953, nessuno si ricordava già più di questa important figura di pioniera nel campo della dirigenza sportiva al femminile.

Marina Zanetti (Turin, 1904 - Milan, 1953) was the first-ever female manager in the history of the Italian sports movement. After losing her leading role in the Athletics Federation (FIDAL) in 1933, she had to wait until the Summer Olympics game in Berlin for a new assignment: from 1936 to 1938, Marina worked for the International Basketball Federation (FIBA) to improve female basketball in Fascist Italy, that she helped to spread as the perfect girl's game. In 1940, Marina married Antonio Anastasia, a Fascist local chief, stopping every sporting activity; in 1947, she married her second husband, Carlo Gustavo Kunz. After the war, Marina lived off the grid, probably because of her murky past: when she died, in 1953, one could remember the importance of this women's sports manager pioneer.

Polybius' extensive use of analytical passages and narratorial interventions often creates the impression that he is especially fond of digressions. Nevertheless, as regards the narration of events, his approach to this common historiographic practice is quite discrete. The method of organizing his material, which he normally employs in the greater part of his work in order to convey the process of symploke, that interrelation of historical developments in the Mediterranean region which eventually led to Roman domination, treats the different story lines recounting these developments as organic components of his masternarrative rather than subsidiary digressions. In this way, Polybius turns the use of digressions into a structural principal of his narrative that acts as a literary depiction of the unification of history on a global level and the steadfast progress of Rome to universal rule.

La professió de notari públic de Mallorca compareix immediatament després de la conquesta i és regulada lacònicament a la Carta de Franquesa del 1230. No obstant això, tot al llarg del segle XIII hi hagué manca de notaris a la part forana, especialment en els pobles més petits. Davant una necessitat imprevista i peremptòria, com podia ser la redacció d’un testament, l’absència de notari havia de ser substituïda per una persona que sabés escriure, generalment un clergue, qui prenia nota de les darreres voluntats del moribund en presència de testimonis. Com que els clergues tonsurats, a Mallorca, no gaudien de fe pública, el testament havia de ser adverat posteriorment, mitjançant un procediment llarg i enutjós. A través de l’anàlisi d’alguns exemples, tres dels quals són de Sóller, la present comunicació analitza el protocol que s’havia de seguir per tal de donar validesa a aquells testaments, anomenats sacramentals. L’objectiu del present article consisteix en examinar i comparar tres estaments nuncupatius del darrer quart del segle XIII, que foren disposats per dones habitants a la vila de Sóller. En absència de notari, foren manuscrits pel clergue que servia la parròquia de Sant Bartomeu i adverats posteriorment a l’església de Santa Eulàlia de ciutat davant el batle de Mallorca. L’adveració era el procediment legal d’autentificació
i protocol·lització d’un testament, oral o escrit, ordenat de paraula en presència de testimonis. Els tres documents formen part d’un conjunt de 34 últimes voluntats conservades en el volum núm. 350 de la secció d’Escrivania de Cartes Reials de l’Arxiu del Regne de Mallorca, que s’ha elegit com a exemple d’adveracions.

Lo studio indaga l'impatto che i fotoromanzi italiani ebbero nel processo di alfabetizzazione ed emancipazione femminile in epoca post-fascista. In un contesto caratterizzato da limitate opportunità educative, tale medium emerge per la sua grande fruibilità e accessibilità anche al pubblico meno colto. Per le donne, leggere i fotoromanzi costituisce un'esperienza colle!iva in cui svolgono un ruolo anche a!ivo, come testimoniano le numerosissime le!ere spedite alle redazioni delle riviste. A!raverso un'analisi quali-quantitativa delle testimonianze di le!ura e di altri materiali d'archivio anche audiovisivi, questo lavoro ricostruisce la pratica di le!ura colle!iva del fotoromanzo, rivelando il ruolo cruciale svolto dai fotoromanzi nel processo di alfabetizzazione ed emancipazione femminile e o rendo uno sguardo nuovo sui cambiamenti sociali che avvennero nella popolazione femminile italiana in epoca postfascista.

Background: Polycystic ovary syndrome is a common endocrine disorder associated with metabolic disturbances, including abnormal lipid levels and obesity. Clarifying the impact of weight status on metabolic factors in affected women is essential for effective management strategies. Objectives: This study aimed to evaluate the impact of body mass index on blood lipid levels, fasting blood sugar, and blood pressure in women with polycystic ovary syndrome, and to determine the correlations between these metabolic parameters and weight status. Methods: The study included women diagnosed with polycystic ovary syndrome according to the Rotterdam criteria. Data collection included demographic and clinical characteristics, as well as anthropometric (body mass index and blood pressure) and biochemical (fasting blood sugar and lipid profile) measurements. Body mass index was used to classify participants into normal weight, overweight, and obese categories based on the World Health Organization classification. Statistical analysis involved the Kruskal-Wallis test, the Dunn-Bonferroni post-hoc test, and Spearman's rank-order correlation to assess associations between body mass index and metabolic markers. Results: Among the participants, 69% were classified as either overweight or obese. A higher body mass index was significantly associated with adverse changes in lipid profile, including elevated triglyceride levels (p = 0.00) and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (p = 0.00), along with reduced high-density lipoprotein cholesterol levels (p = 0.00). Systolic blood pressure was also significantly higher in overweight and obese individuals (p = 0.04). However, fasting blood sugar levels did not differ significantly across body mass index categories (p = 0.19). Correlation analysis revealed a positive association between body mass index and triglycerides (ρ = 0.26, p = 0.00) and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (ρ = 0.20, p = 0.04), while body mass index was negatively correlated with high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (ρ =-0.27, p = 0.00). Conclusion: Body mass index is strongly associated with lipid abnormalities and elevated blood pressure in women with polycystic ovary syndrome, reinforcing the importance of weight management in reducing metabolic and cardiovascular risks.

La incorporación de las mujeres al mundo científico y académico ha mejorado en las últimas décadas, no sin reticencias y con una persistente brecha de género. Algunas de las discriminaciones a las que tienenque hacer frente las mujeres son: mayortiempo invertido en el trabajo de cuidados dentro y fuera del mundo laboral; estereotipos y falta de reconocimiento científico; la maternidad como obstáculo no reconocido y por tanto un punto de inflexión en sus carreras y; falta de referentes femeninos, especialmente en algunas áreas. Los trabajos que han analizado la brecha de género en los ámbitos científico y académico en las últimas décadas han estado dominados habitualmente por datos estadísticos y, sin descartar sus hallazgos, consideramos importante contrastarlos y complementarlos con estudios de corte cualitativo como el que presentamos, donde a través de entrevistas en profundidad semiestructuradas a mujeres integrantes de centros de investigación y de universidades españolas, daremos cuenta del estado actual de la brecha de género en sus ámbitos laborales. Los resultados muestran que, a pesar de que en la actualidad haya ciertos mecanismos para combatir esas discriminaciones de género, se mantienen algunas formas de sexismo más obvias y otras mucho más sutiles e invisibles. Asimismo, algunas científicas y académicas tienen la percepción de que son ellas quienes hacen todo el trabajo de la familia académica, debido a que la dicotomía transparencia/“hipervisibilidad” masculina frente a la opacidad/“clandestinidad” femenina describe el trabajo de las mujeres en el contexto académico y científico, destacando la ocultación de una dimensión de la tarea y la actitud de las mujeres. Es así como el trabajo más invisible es elque corresponde al trabajo afectivo y relacional tanto dentro como fuera del ámbito laboral, lo que conlleva en ventajas laborales para los hombres: puestos con mejor salario y reconocimiento social, principalmente porque tienen más tiempo disponible para seguir ascendiendo en su carreralaboral, y para dedicarlo a otras actividades fuera del trabajo. Terminaremos con unas reflexiones a propósito de los malestares de las científicas, los cuales van más allá de la brecha de género y en ocasiones muchas de ellasplantean que el problema estaría en el propio sistema que sustenta el mundo científico y académico, pero también en el actual mercado laboral.

Masters of the Air (2024) is the third installment in a trilogy of World War II series produced by Steven Spielberg and Tom Hanks. Adapted from a historical novel of the same name, the series chronicles the experiences of the "Bloody 100th," a group of American airmen stationed in the UK who conducted bombing missions over Nazi Germany. This paper provides a critical review of Masters of the Air, arguing that the series reinforces themes of American exceptionalism and heroism. Furthermore, it examines the portrayal of women and African Americans, asserting that both groups are underrepresented and depicted in a superficial manner. The review concludes with a comparative analysis of Masters of the Air alongside its predecessors, Band of Brothers and The Pacific, highlighting both the continuities and the distinctions in their narrative focus and thematic exploration of the war.

putting these materials in the context of a larger nineteenth-century discourse culture on American narratives about identity, class, whiteness, and gender. Focusing specifically on Western's role as the educator of wives for home missionaries and its particular location in the Midwest, the article argues that Western's public materials relied on, and in the process helped to create, a complicated gendered logic, in that its public relations campaign and institutional governance documents and operating strategies made appeals to both masculine and feminine idioms. As demonstrated through the discourses housed in the Western College archive, the Western Female Seminary offers one piece of evidence in a much larger schema for seeing the temporal, contextual, and spatial specificity of the workings of gender in relation to the education of women.

In Spain, the wet nurse had a prominent place in the Court of Philip II (1540–1580), suckling princes. The aim of this review is to identify the role of wet nurses in the Spanish monarchy and the survival of the infants, who were children of Philip II (16th century). A scoping review is presented, studying documents on wet nurses in the Spanish monarchy. The dialectical structural model of care (DSMC) is applied, and three thematic blocks are used to make up the historical-cultural model. Books, chapters and databases were analysed from Cuiden, Pubmed, Scopus, Science Direct and Google Scholar, from January–September 2021. These wet nurses were treated as ladies, as they came from wealthy families related to royalty. The services of wet nurses from neighbouring localities to the court were used. They had to be of good appearance and in excellent health. They were hired because of the need for survival of the infants, children of Philip II. The functions of the four wives of Philip I...

Investigations on alternative control methods to chemicals including usage of plant extract for plant fungal disease take important place in current researches. Plant extracts are generally deemed to be less hazardous than synthetic compounds and could be alternative to antifungal treatments. In this study, the purpose was screening of some plant extracts against Fusarium culmorum causing foot and root rot on different small-grain cereals, in particular wheat and barley. In total 6 plant species including levander (Lavandula angustifolia), common mullein (Verbascum thapsus), common sorrel (Rumex acetosa), wood avens (Geum urbanum), poison hemlock (Conium maculatum), henbane (Hyoscyamus niger) consisted the materials in the study. The antifungal effects of three different concentrations (20%, 40%, and 80%) of each extracted plant, obtained from dried plant parts in methanol, were evaluated on growth of F. culmorum by dual test technic on PDA (Potato Dextrose Agar).

The existence of Acehnese women has an extraordinary place in the public sphere. The study aims to describe the jihad fi Sabilillah of Acehnese women against colonialism, which inspired women's resilience during the conflict, tsunami, and Covid-19 pandemic. The greatness of Acehnese women has been known to the world for centuries for their toughness in various fields, such as the military, politics, government, and religion. Aceh is always said to have given birth to fighters who fought colonialism, such as Laksamana Malahayati, Cut Nyak Dhein, Cut Mutia, et al. The Aceh conflict significantly impacted the heroism of Acehnese women against Dutch colonialism and the spirit of the Sabil War. During the conflict, Acehnese women were actively involved in various activities. When the tsunami occurred, women also participated in resolving the impacts arising from the disaster. The Covid-19 pandemic has also had a huge impact on women. And Acehnese women's resilience was tested when facing the pandemic until the pandemic was over. The process of gathering resource persons in the paper was through documentation review and interviews with women directly involved in the events during the conflict, tsunami, and the COVID-19 pandemic. The study results show that Acehnese women are known for being brave, being shields (protectors/fortresses of the family) during times of crisis, and never giving up, especially if the resistance is in upholding or defending religion and protecting the family and nation.
