Dorothy E. Smith (1926-2022) zählt zu den bekanntesten feministischen Soziologinnen der Gegenwart. Diese erste deutschsprachige Einführung in Smiths Werk erläutert dieses in seinem biographischen und theoriegeschichtlichen Kontext und rekonstruiert ebenso dessen Wirkungsgeschichte. Smith ist Wegbereiterin einer feministischen Wissenssoziologie, die die gesellschaftliche Verfasstheit der Alltagserfahrung und sozialer Formen des Bewusstseins in den Mittelpunkt der Analyse stellt. Ihre Methodologie institutioneller Ethnographie liefert ein begriffliches Instrumentarium, das in vielfältigen Zusammenhängen kritisch-reflexiver Sozialwissenschaft aktuell angewandt wird.

Säg namnet Dorothy Irving och få i Musiksverige blir oberörda. I många år har hon varit en betydelsefull person, motor och mentor, för blivande storstjärnor inom framför allt den klassiska musiken. Hon föddes i London 1927 och flyttade till Sverige 1957. 1961 debuterade hon med en romanskonsert, det lilla formatet passade henne liksom den nära kontakten med publiken som det innebar. Hon var länge engagerad vid Rikskonserter och har verkat som upp- skattad pedagog vid de flesta högre musikutbildningar i Norden. 1986 blev hon Sveriges första professor i sång vid Lunds universitet. Hon är medlem i Musikaliska akademien och belönad med utmärkelser och medaljer för sin unika gärning. Dorothy Irvings långa väg och outtröttliga arbete skildras i denna insiktsfulla bok som också tecknar de sammanhang och miljöer där Irving lämnat bestående avtryck. Det är berättelsen om en stark personlighet, en varm medmänniska och en stor röst. En kvinna som har fått slåss för att nå sina mål och haft som filosofi att aldrig blicka bakåt. Catarina Ericson-Roos disputerade 1977 med avhandlingen The Songs of Robert Burns: a Study of the Unity of Poetry and Music. Hon har arbetat i olika chefsroller på Uppsala universitetsbibliotek, Handelshögskolans bibliotek och Stockholms universitetsbibliotek där hon var överbibliotekarie mellan åren 2004-2011.

An intimate portrait of Jane Austen, Dorothy Wordsworth, and their world--two women torn between revolutionary ideas and fierce conservatism, artistic creativity and emotional upheavals. The lives of Dorothy Wordsworth and Jane Austen have never been examined together before. Born just four years apart, they came from the same class of landed gentry with clergymen for fathers (who both died young); with friends, family and many interests in common. Living in Georgian England, they navigated strict social conventions and new ideals, and were influenced by Dorothy's brother, the Romantic poet William Wordsworth, and his coterie. They were supremely talented writers yet often lacked the necessary peace of mind in their search for self-expression. Neither ever married. Jane and Dorothy uses each life to illuminate the other. For both women, financial security was paramount and whereas Jane Austen hoped to achieve this through her writing, rather than being dependent on her family, Dorothy made the opposite choice and put her creative powers to the use of her brilliant brother with whom she lived all her adult life. Though neither path would bring lasting fulfillment and independence, both women's mark on literary culture is undeniable. This probing book reveals a crucial missing piece to the puzzle of Dorothy and William's relationship and addresses enduring myths surrounding the one man who seems to have stolen Jane's heart, only to break it . . .

The Detective and Dorothy Day blends detective noir with historical fiction, set in eastern New York in 1975. The story follows Sy Johnson, a Manhattan private investigator hired by a labor union to probe the murder of upstate chemical tycoon Jack Williams. The accused killer is a local union president, but the deeper Sy digs, the murkier the case becomes. His investigation leads him to the Catholic Worker farm in Tivoli, where he meets seventy-seven-year-old Dorothy Day, the renowned writer, pacifist, and co-founder of the Catholic Worker movement. There he also encounters James, a black Vietnam veteran battling addiction, and his sister Roberta, a singer Sy met the night before. The murder case expands into a web of environmental pollution, labor unrest, high finance and corruption, complicated further by Sy's romantic entanglements and close brushes with death. From barrooms to a ballroom, and from Brooklyn's backstreets to quiet waters and woodland, Sy finds himself confronting not just killers, but his own conscience. As he unravels connections between five murders and a world poisoned by greed and guilt, his unlikely bond with Dorothy Day challenges him to seek justice and redemption in a new light. The Detective and Dorothy Day is both a gripping thriller and a meditation on morality in a world on the edge.
