Children’s Voices from the Past
This book explores a central methodological issue at the heart of studies of the histories of children and childhood. It questions how we understand the perspectives of children in the past, and not just those of the adults who often defined and constrained the parameters of youthful lives. Drawing on a range of different sources, including institutional records, interviews, artwork, diaries, letters, memoirs, and objects, this interdisciplinary volume uncovers the voices of historical children, and discusses the challenges of situating these voices, and interpreting juvenile agency and desire. Divided into four sections, the book considers children's voices in different types of historical records, examining children's letters and correspondence, as well as multimedia texts such as film, advertising and art, along with oral histories, and institutional archives.
A MEMOIR
Stanley Mason Goldberg: A Life Well Lived follows Stanley’s journeys from earliest childhood through school, marriage, US Navy, family, work, and for the last twenty-six years, an intense love of mountaineering. Climbing has taken him to every US State where he is two peaks short of summiting each state’s high point. He looks forward to the coming summer’s continuing quest in this pursuit. Foreign climbing has taken him to Mexico, Peru, Nepal (six trips), Tibet (five trips), Pakistan (two trips), Bhutan, and Tanzania. At the age of eighty-one, he looks forward to more of the same.
He is the Sun, She is the Moon
Renowned German social historian Heide Wunder refers to the cosmic image contained in the 1578 Book of Marital Discipline that characterizes the relationship between husband and wife. Today, "He is the sun, she is the moon" might be interpreted as a hierarchy of dominance and subordination. At the time it was used, however, sun and moon reflected the different but equal status of husband and wife. Wunder shows how the history of women and the history of gender relations can provide crucial insights into how societies organize themselves and provide resources for political action. She observes actual circumstances as well as the normative rules that were supposed to guide women's lives. We le...
