Something happened to her mother that night. Something no one wants to talk about. But she's determined to uncover her family's dark secrets, even if they bury her. Five-year-old Sloane McBride couldn't sleep that night. Her parents were arguing again, their harsh words heating the cool autumn air. And then there was that other sound--the ominous thump before all went quiet. In the morning, her mother was gone. The official story was that she left. Her loving, devoted mother That hadn't sat any better at the time than it did when Sloane moved out at eighteen, anxious to leave her small Texas hometown in search of anywhere else. But not even a fresh start working as a model in New York could keep the nightmares at bay. Or her fears that the domineering father she grew up with wasn't just difficult--he was deadly. Now another traumatic loss forces Sloane to realize she owes it to her mother to find out the truth, even if it means returning to a small town full of secrets and lies, a jilted ex-boyfriend, and a father and brother who'd rather see her silenced. But as Sloane starts digging into the past, the question isn't whether she can uncover what really happened that night...it's what will remain of her family if she does?

Masculinity in Vietnam War Narratives

Masculinity in Vietnam War Narratives

Brenda M. Boyle

McFarland Co Inc
2009
pokkari
Occurring alongside the Women's Rights, Gay Rights, Civil Rights, and other identity movements of the 1960s, the Vietnam War was part of an era that rescripted gender and other social identity roles for many, if not most, Americans. This book examines the ways in which the war and its accompanying movements greatly altered traditional American conceptions of masculinity, as reflected in discourses ranging from fictional narratives to memoirs, films, and military recruiting advertisements. Analysis of two canonical fiction texts--John Del Vecchio's The 13th Valley and Bobbie Ann Mason's In Country--illustrates the interrelatedness of race, sexuality, disability and masculinity, an approach appearing in no other book-length study. The text illustrates how, decades later, the masculine anxieties of the Vietnam era persist.

Battered Woman Syndrome as a Legal Defense

Battered Woman Syndrome as a Legal Defense

Brenda L. Russell

McFarland Co Inc
2010
pokkari
The use of the battered woman syndrome defense in the courts is controversial, particularly when women turn to homicide in response to a partner's abuse. Scholars worry that the syndrome has created a standard to which all battered women are compared. This book provides a comprehensive examination of the evolution of the syndrome, its effectiveness in court, and the contributions made by psychologists and legal scholars to aid our understanding of the use of battered woman syndrome evidence in trials of abused women who kill. Of particular interest is the influence of history, gender roles, and stereotypes in the evaluation of defendants who claim to suffer from the syndrome.

Our Old Monsters

Our Old Monsters

Brenda S. Gardenour Walter

McFarland Co Inc
2015
pokkari
The witch, the vampire and the werewolf endure in modern horror. These "old monsters" have their origins in Aristotle as studied in the universities of medieval Europe, where Christian scholars reconciled works of natural philosophy and medicine with theological precepts. They codified divine perfection as warm, light, male and associated with the ethereal world beyond the moon, while evil imperfection was cold, dark, female and bound to the corrupt world below the moon. All who did not conform to divine goodness--including un-holy women and Jews--were considered evil and ascribed a melancholic, blood hungry and demonic physiology. This construct was the basis for anti-woman and anti-Jewish discourse that has persisted through modern Western culture. Nowhere is this more evident than in horror films, where the witch, the vampire and the werewolf represent our fear of the inverted other.

Harvest of Stones

Harvest of Stones

Brenda Lee-Whiting

University of Toronto Press
1985
pokkari
Driven by Bismarck's wars and by economic hardship, hundreds of people left eastern Germany between 1858 and 1890 to settle in Canada. The Canadian government started in the late 1850s to open up Renfew County in the Ottawa Valley by building a colonization route -- the Opeongo Road. The efforts of Canadian Immigration officials and the spur of harsh economic conditions at home led this wave of German immigrants to settle, with high hopes, in the newly opened region. Succeeding generations of German farmers who had to cope with the poor soil of Renfrew County complained of an 'annual harvest of stones.' None the less they built a community, erecting the buildings and fashioning the articles of daily use they needed. The houses, barns, schools, and churches, the clothing and blankets, and the furniture they produced are documented extensively for the first time in this book. Brenda Lee-Whiting has interviewed descendants of many of the settlers, explored attics and barns, scoured auction sales, visited cemeteries, and read original letters and diaries throughout Renfrew County to obtain a vivid picture of the original community. She recounts the life-stories of furniture-makers and explains the designs and provence of their cradles, beds, tables, and cupboards, many of which now lie neglected and forgotten. She describes how the settlers cleared and cultivated the land, assesses the fruitful adaptation of Canadian housing styles of German domestic requirements, and examines the equipment and techniques used to furnish homes and to sow and reap crops -- harvests of flax and vegetables, as well as stones. Using the objects made by the settlers and the stories told by them and their descendants, Lee-Whiting brings to life the culture of a people transplanted to a region that challenged them to the utmost, a challenge they met with resilience and resourcefulness.
