Mabel Agnes Elliott: Pioneering Feminist, Pacifist Sociologist provides a history of the life and career of the late Mabel Agnes Elliott (1898-1990), a pioneering female sociologist largely forgotten despite her achievements and contributions. A native of Iowa, Elliott earned three degrees in Sociology from Northwestern University. In addition to her career as a sociologist, she was a feminist and a pacifist whose occasional criticism of criminal policies in the United States led to the creation of an FBI file. Despite being largely disregarded by her male colleagues, Elliott wrote a wildly successful textbook, Social Disorganization, that published four editions over thirty years. After starting her career at the University of Kansas and working there for twenty years, she moved to Chatham College in Pennsylvania in 1949 where she was appreciated for her singular abilities. Among her many achievements, she was the first nwoman to be elected Presidet of the Society for the Study of Social Problems in 1957.

‘During the Second World War, I worked in an empty building by the Thames. It had been used by the Thames Conservancy Board. When war came, they moved out and I was moved in. I stayed there for most of the war. I never went down to an air raid shelter. I was too busy trying to make people laugh about wartime bread and sausages, instead of crying about them.’ – Mabel Lucie AttwellMabel Lucie Attwell was one of Britain’s best-loved artists with her work touching generations, from those who grew up with her classic characters, Bunty and the Boo-Boos, to those who have read Charles Kingsley’s The Water Babies, which she famously illustrated. Her art has found its way into homes across the world through figurines, bathroom plaques and gift cards featuring her charming designs. Yet, many of her most poignant and humorous illustrations were created to cheer a world at war. She painted prolifically throughout the First and Second World Wars, with postcards featuring her child-like characters and tongue-in-cheek captions that were typical of her saucy sense of humour. Despite suffering loss and hardship herself during the wars she continued to encourage people to ‘smile through the tears’. This book which brings a collection of her wartime postcards together exclusively for the first time, pays tribute to the indomitable spirit of this incredible woman and to her art that cannot fail to raise a smile today for young and old alike.

Mabel and the Queen of Dreams

A restless Mabel falls asleep to the soothing story of the Queen of Dreams, a magical fairy who glides over sleeping children, painting their dreams Little Mabel is an expert at not going to sleep. She knows all the best bedtime-avoiding excuses. "I'm thirsty." "I need to use the bathroom." "Will you tell me a story?" Luckily, Mom's selection of bedtime tales includes the story of the Fae Queen, who paints children's dreams and can only visit when their eyes are closed. Inspired by Mercutio's soliloquy in Romeo & Juliet, in which he details how the tiny fairy queen influences people's dreams as she passes by in her flying chariot, the soothing story evokes images of an ant in a worn gray coat and a hazelnut-shell chariot with a roof of grasshopper wings. Told in lyrical language that adults will also appreciate, the story helps parents get their kids to sleep. For ages 0-6.

Mabel Dodge Luhan

Lois Palken Rudnick

University of New Mexico Press
1987

She was ""the most peculiar common denominator that society, literature, art and radical revolutionaries ever found in New York and Europe."" So claimed a Chicago newspaper reporter in the 1920s of Mabel Dodge Luhan, who attracted leading literary and intellectual figures to her circle for over four decades. Not only was she mistress of a grand salon, an American Madame de Stael, she was also a leading symbol of the New Woman: sexually emancipated, self-determining, and in control of her destiny. In many ways, her life is the story of America's emergence from the Victorian age. Lois Rudnick has written a unique and definitive biography that examines all aspects of Mabel Dodge Luhan's real and imagined lives, drawing on fictional portraits of Mabel, including those by D H Lawrence, Carl Van Vechten, and Gertrude Stein, as well as on Mabel's own voluminous memoirs, letters, and fiction. Rudnick not only assesses Mabel as muse to men of genius but also considers her seriously as a writer, activist, and spirit of the age.

Mabel Dodge Luhan (18791962) was a political, social, and cultural visionary; salon hostess; and collector of genius in almost every field of modernismpainting, photography, drama, psychology, radical politics, social reform, and Native American rights. Luhan spent her adult life building utopian communities, first, as an expatriate in Florence (190512) working to recreate the Renaissance; next as a New Woman in Greenwich Village (191215), hosting one of the most famous salons in American history; and finally, in Taos, the New World (191847), bringing together a community of artists, writers, and social reformers including writers D. H. Lawrence, Jean Toomer, Mary Austin, and Frank Waters; choreographer Martha Graham; and anthropologists Elsie Clews Parsons and John Collier. With Luhan as their hostess, these European and American talents found inspiration in the mesas, mountains, Hispanic villages, and Indian pueblos of northern New Mexico. Modernist works by painters and photographers, including Marsden Hartley, John Marin, Georgia OKeeffe, Ansel Adams, Rebecca Strand, and Paul Strand, are featured alongside indigenous art that inspired their modernist sensibilitiesNative American painters like San Ildefonso Pueblos Awa Tsireh and Taos Pueblos Pop Chalee, whose work Mabel supported, and traditional Hispano devotional art collected by Luhan.

When an enterprising 10-year-old Mabel lures a black bear to a picnic table outside her family's rental cabin in the Great Smoky Mountains, her twin sister Louise is injured, setting both on a mission to teach others about how to stay safe and keep bears wild.This rhyming picture book for ages five to ten pairs charming, sensitive illustrations with a timely environmental conservation message.When the adventurous Mabel goads her shy sister Louise into sneaking out of their family's rental cabin in the middle of the night, she's delighted to see that her secret plan to lure a black bear with leftover French fries has worked. But when the startled bear injures her sister Louise, Mabel discovers that making human food available to wild animals can have serious consequences. With help from their parents and a friendly wildlife biologist, the twins learn how to be responsible environmental stewards in bear country and grow up to educate others about how to safely coexist with black bears.An educational bonus section developed by the national BearWise(R) organization provides real-world guidance for safe food and waste storage in bear country. Additional sections profile the regional Smokies BearWise and Appalachian Bear Rescue--an organization that rehabilitates bear cubs who are orphaned in and around Great Smoky Mountains National Park.Mabel's environmental theme addresses a pressing issue relevant to communities near wild areas all over the world. When bears can easily access the foods humans eat and feed their pets, they may no longer forage for their natural foods and instead become "food conditioned," further increasing the chances of human-bear conflict and perpetuating dangerous patterns of behavior, which are passed on to their young.Mabel Meets a Black Bear depicts the harmful and sometimes-deadly effects of irresponsible behavior in bear country and offers inspiring, grassroots solutions for wildlife advocates of all ages.
