The Emerging Female Citizen
Eighteenth-century Spanish women were not idle bystanders during one of Europe's most dynamic eras. As Theresa Ann Smith skillfully demonstrates in this lively and absorbing book, Spanish intellectuals, calling for Spain to modernize its political, social, and economic institutions, brought the question of women's place to the forefront, as did women themselves. In explaining how both discourse and women's actions worked together to define women's roles in the nation, The Emerging Female Citizen not only illustrates the rising visibility of women, but also reveals the complex processes that led to women's relatively swift exit from most public institutions in the early 1800s. As artists, writers, and reformers, Spanish women took up pens, joined academies and economic societies, formed tertulias—similar to French salons—and became active in the burgeoning public discourse of Enlightenment. In analyzing the meaning of women's presence in diverse centers of Enlightenment, Smith offers a new interpretation of the dynamics among political discourse, social action, and gender ideologies.

Publisher Description
Cambridge Handbook of Engineering Education Research
The Cambridge Handbook of Engineering Education Research is the critical reference source for the growing field of engineering education research, featuring the work of world luminaries writing to define and inform this emerging field. The Handbook draws extensively on contemporary research in the learning sciences, examining how technology affects learners and learning environments, and the role of social context in learning. Since a landmark issue of the Journal of Engineering Education (2005), in which senior scholars argued for a stronger theoretical and empirically driven agenda, engineering education has quickly emerged as a research-driven field increasing in both theoretical and empirical work drawing on many social science disciplines, disciplinary engineering knowledge, and computing. The Handbook is based on the research agenda from a series of interdisciplinary colloquia funded by the US National Science Foundation and published in the Journal of Engineering Education in October 2006.
Wicca
Introduction Congratulations on downloading Wicca: Spirit: The Fifth Element and thank you for doing so. The following chapters will discuss the Spirit, Akasha, and a related Wiccan symbol, the pentagram. The Spirit is said to be the fifth Element of the Wiccan tradition, the substance that unifies the four material Elements. Each Element occupies its own apex on the Wiccan pentagram. Chapter 1 discusses the pentagram's symbolic history. In chapter 2, readers can expect to make sense of the ways that Wiccans relate to and make use of the pentagram. Chapter 3 covers the four material Elements of the Wiccan tradition: Air, Fire, Earth, and Water. Chapter 4 takes a closer look at what Wiccan practitioners consider to be the fifth Element, the Spirit. Lastly, chapter 5 delves into historical ponderings concerning the existence of Akasha, prominently known as Aether during earlier times. There are plenty of books on this subject on the market. Thanks again for choosing this one! Every effort was made to ensure that it contains as much useful information as possible. Please enjoy!
