A century ago, it was a given that a woman with a college degree had to choose between having a career and a family. Today, there are more female college graduates than ever before, and more women want to have a career and family, yet challenges persist at work and at home. This book traces how generations of women have responded to the problem of balancing career and family as the twentieth century experienced a sea change in gender equality, revealing why true equity for dual career couples remains frustratingly out of reach.

Das Essay "A Room of One's Own" wurde erstmals im September 1929 veröffentlicht wurde. Der Text basiert auf zwei Vorlesungen, die Virginia Woolf im Oktober 1928 am Newnham College und am Girton College, den Frauenhochschulen der Universität Cambridge, hielt. Woolf stellt dabei fest, dass das Fehlen weiblicher Fiktion in der Literaturgeschichte eher auf einen Mangel an Möglichkeiten als auf weniger literarisches Talent zurückzuführen ist. In dem Essay verwendet Woolf verschiedene Metaphern, um die soziale Benachteiligung der Frau am Bespiel der Literatur zu erörtern.

The book that changed the consciousness of a country - and the world. Landmark, groundbreaking, classic - these adjectives barely describe the earthshaking and long-lasting effects of Betty Friedan's The Feminine Mystique. This is the book that defined "the problem that has no name," that launched the Second Wave of the feminist movement, and has been awakening women and men with its insights into social relations, which still remain fresh, ever since.

One of the most talked-about scholarly works of the past 50 years, Judith Butler's Gender Trouble is as celebrated as it is controversial. Arguing that traditional feminism is wrong to look to a natural, "essential" notion of the female, or indeed of sex or gender, Butler starts by questioning the category "woman" and continues in this vein with examinations of "the masculine" and "the feminine." Best known however, but also most often misinterpreted, is Butler's concept of gender as a reiterated social performance rather than the expression of a prior reality.

Judith Sevinç Basad empört sich - und stemmt sich vehement gegen die sich aufgeklärt wähnende Meinungsmache, gegen Denkverbote und Unschärfen in den Argumenten einer selbsternannten kulturellen Elite. Ist es denn, genau betrachtet, wirklich so, dass die "Privilegierten" den sozialen Aufstieg von Migrantenkindern verhindern? Kann nur eine Frau wissen, wie man Politik für Frauen macht? Ist "MeToo" eine durchgängig lautere Bewegung? Ist es im Kampf gegen Rassismus mit der Entmachtung des "alten weißen Mannes" getan?

The question of exactly what sex differences exist and whether they have a biological foundation has been one of our culture's favorite enduring discussions. It should. After a baby is born, a parent's first concern is for its physical health. The next concern is its sex. Only in the most modern societies does sex not virtually guarantee the type of future life a new human being will have. Even in modern societies, one's sex usually plays a large role in the path a life follows.

Biblical womanhood - the belief that God designed women to be submissive wives, virtuous mothers, and joyful homemakers - pervades North American Christianity. From choices about careers to roles in local churches to relationship dynamics, this belief shapes the everyday lives of evangelical women. Yet biblical womanhood isn't biblical, says Baylor University historian Beth Allison Barr. It was born in a series of clearly definable historical moments.  

Twenty thousand years ago, women were making and wearing the first clothing created from spun fibers. In fact, right up to the Industrial Revolution the fiber arts were an enormous economic force, belonging primarily to women. Despite the great toil required in making cloth and clothing, most books on ancient history and economics have no information on them. Much of this gap results from the extreme perishability of what women produced, but it seems clear that until now descriptions of prehistoric and early historic cultures have omitted virtually half the picture. 

Offen, kraftvoll und berührend berichtet Alex Mariah Peter von Kindheit und Einsamkeit, Herkunft und Identität, von Schönheit und Schmerz, Übergriffigkeit, Verlust und einem medialen Rampenlicht, das nicht immer wärmt. In einer Welt, die ständig definiert, wer man sein darf, wagt sie den mutigsten Schritt: ihre Geschichte selbst zu erzählen, um als ganze Person gesehen zu werden – nicht trotz, sondern wegen allem, was dazugehört.

Warum kam man erst im späten 20. Jahrhundert auf die Idee, Räder unter Reisekoffer zu montieren - obwohl es das Rad schon seit fünftausend Jahren gibt? Wären wir womöglich nie auf den Mond gelangt ohne das Wissen amerikanischer Näherinnen? Und wie sähe eigentlich eine Welt aus, in der Frauen genauso viel Gehör finden wie Männer? Die schwedische Bestsellerautorin Katrine Marçal zeigt mit viel Verve, was die Menschheit über die Jahrhunderte verloren (oder erst viel später erfunden) hat, weil eine Hälfte von ihr - die Frauen - nicht mitreden, mitbestimmen, miterfinden durfte.

In The Once and Future Sex, Janega unravels the restricting expectations on medieval women and the ones on women today. She boldly questions why, if our ideas of women have changed drastically over time, we cannot reimagine them now to create a more equitable future.
