A History of Women in Men's Clothes

Norena Shopland presents a provocative, eye-opening look at how women defied patriarchal societal expectations for personal freedom. Traditionally, historic women have been seen as bound by social conventions, unable to travel unless accompanied and limited in their ability to do what they want when they want. But thousands of women broke those rules, put on banned clothing and traveled, worked and even lived whole lives as men. As access to novels and newspapers increased in the nineteenth century so did the number of women defying Biblical and social restrictions. They copied each other’s motives and excuses and moved into the world of men. Most were working-class women who either needed...

J.M.W. Turner and the Subject of History is an in-depth consideration of the artist's complex response to the challenge of creating history paintings in the early nineteenth century. Structured around the linked themes of making and unmaking, of creation and destruction, this book examines how Turner's history paintings reveal changing notions of individual and collective identity at a time when the British Empire was simultaneously developing and fragmenting. Turner similarly emerges as a conflicted subject, one whose artistic modernism emerged out of a desire to both continue and exceed his eighteenth-century aesthetic background by responding to the altered political and historical circumstances of the nineteenth century.

Environmental changes have significant impacts on people’s lives and livelihoods, particularly the urban poor and those living in informal settlements. In an effort to reduce urban residents’ exposure to climate change and hazards such as natural disasters, resettlement programmes are becoming widespread across the Global South. While resettlement may reduce a region’s future climate-related disaster risk, it often increases poverty and vulnerability, and can be used as a reason to evict people from areas undergoing redevelopment. A collaboration between the Bartlett Development Planning Unit at UCL, the Indian Institute for Human Settlements and the Latin American Social Science Facul...

Ava & Ina – Book 3 Come By Chance Mail Order Brides of 1885

Two weddings, Two evil outlaws, and Two more Come-By-Chance women in the family way! Cultured, elegant German twins, Ava and Ina Biermann, arrive in town to marry the Carmichaels, and Jed and Jethro couldn’t be happier. But their ma, Penny – toughest and best fighter in the history of Tent Boxing, and all ’round good ol’ gal – ain’t happy about it at all. For one thing, she figures those girls too dang pretty – and for another, their long slender musicians’ fingers look too useless to do any real work. On top of all that, Opal’s father, the horrible Otis Trigger, has found out where she is! He’s on his way to Come-By-Chance to take his revenge on his daughter, and rob the...
