TechnoFeminism

TechnoFeminism

Judy Wajcman

Polity Press
2004
nidottu
This timely and engaging book argues that technoscientific advances are radically transforming the woman-machine relationship. However, it is feminist politics rather than the technologies themselves that make the difference. TechnoFeminism fuses the visionary insights of cyberfeminism with a materialist analysis of the sexual politics of technology.

Rosamond Lehmann

Rosamond Lehmann

Judy Simons

Northcote House Publishers Ltd
2004
sidottu
Rosamond Lehmann’s first book, Dusty Answer (1927), with its scandalous subject matter, made her a literary celebrity at the age of twenty-seven. Seen as the voice of a new generation, she became the centre of an artistic circle that included W.H. Auden, Stephen Spender and Elizabeth Bowen. Lehmann’s novels deal with the urgency of romance and the vicissitudes of young women in love, and depict the emotional rollercoaster of romance and the tortuous process of growing up more directly than any writer before her. This book locates Lehmann’s fictional achievement in the context of her times and in particular describes its positioning within the turbulent period between two world wars and the changing aesthetic of modernity. It includes a penetrating critical analysis of each of the major works, drawing on previously unpublished private papers, including letters to family and friends. In this it provides fresh and original insights into one of the most celebrated English novelists of her age.

Portslade Memories

Portslade Memories

Judy Middleton

Sutton Publishing Ltd
2004
nidottu
Portslade is the district furthest west in the Brighton conurbation. Originally a Downland village, it still retains a wealth of old buildings and a real sense of community - despite the arrival of industry on the coast during the nineteenth century. Today it is one of the most densely populated areas in Brighton and Hove. This book is the result of over 50 interviews with elderly residents of Portslade, recorded over many hours. They recall life in the town and surrounding countryside in the first half of the twentieth century up to Portslade's VE Day celebrations. Included are vivid memories of school days, working as a butcher's boy, life as a teacher, early cars and other transport, cinemas and entertainment, and serving in 'Dad's Army'. First issued in two volumes in 1990 and 1991, the text has been fully revised and expanded for this new edition; it has also been re-illustrated.

Nearly 400,000 BBC TV viewers named Isambard Kingdom Brunel, the son of a French royalist, as the greatest ever Briton, second only to Winston Churchill. The visionary Victorian engineer and driving force of the Great Western Railway undoubtedly still occupies a special place in people's hearts and minds.Hundreds of streets and shopping malls, pubs and car parks, open spaces and public buildings bear the name of Brunel or the Great Western in honour of his magnificent bridges and viaducts, tunnels and station buildings.To mark the bicentenary of Brunel's birth, Judy Jones trekked 500 miles from Paddington to Penzance to explore the legacy of his railway revolution. Tracking the route of the GWR via footpaths, bridleways and country lanes with her energetic border collie Fly, she explored towns, villages and rural backwaters of southern England and the West Country to discover its impact on contemporary life.Isambard's Kingdom reveals a hidden world of dedicated railway enthusiasts who are breathing new life into abandoned branch lines and old railway buildings, and sketches the people, landscapes and wildlife encountered on the way.
