Julia, Child

Julia, Child

Kyo Maclear

Prentice Hall Press
2018
nidottu
A charming, whimsically illustrated picture book about joie de vivre, told from the perspective of a child named Julia who loves to cook. Sure to be savored by readers of all ages. Julia and Simca are two young friends who agree that you can never use too much butter -- and that it is best to be a child forever. Sharing a love of cooking and having no wish to turn into big, busy people who worry too much and dawdle too little, they decide to create a feast for growing and staying young. A playful, scrumptious celebration of the joy of eating, the importance of never completely growing up and mastering the art of having a good time, Julia, Child is a fictional tale loosely inspired by the life and spirit of the very real Julia Child -- a story that should be taken with a grain of salt and a generous pat of butter.

Julia Kristeva

Julia Kristeva

Smith Anne-Marie

PLUTO PRESS
1998
pokkari
‘Makes an excellent introduction to Kristeva in its enthusiasm and generosity ... lucid and well-conceived.’ TLS Julia Kristeva’s most remarkable contribution to modern thought has been her revelation of how pre-verbal experience - poetic, infantile, maternal and spiritual, or simply the experience of suffering - enters language through the processes of literature, art and psychoanalysis. Anne-Marie Smith’s concise introductory study examines Kristeva in the light of her contemporary activity as writer, teacher and psychoanalyst. Tracing the evolution of Kristeva’s thinking over the last thirty years she draws attention to its conceptual coherence and value as a work-in-progress of cultural critique. Smith provides close readings of the original texts, new translations and first-hand accounts of Kristeva’s lectures. Kristeva’s influence in Anglo-American thought is set against her place in the French intellectual tradition. She emphasizes Kristeva’s involvement in public cultural activity and personal commitment to psychoanalytic practice as well as her insistent interrogation of the place of women and of foreignness in social structures.

Julia Kristeva and Feminist Thought

Julia Kristeva and Feminist Thought

Birgit Schippers

Edinburgh University Press
2011
sidottu
Julia Kristeva is an important and influential figure within contemporary Continental thought. This book is an engaging appraisal of the complex relationship between Kristeva and feminist theory. Drawing in particular on her recent writings on revolt, female genius and freedom, Schippers makes a case for her significant contribution to a feminist project that is sympathetic to her account of fluid subjectivity, her critique of identity politics and the deeply ethical orientation of her work.

Julia Pastrana

Christopher Hals Gylseth; Lars O Toverud

The History Press Ltd
2004
nidottu
In a dusty corner at the Institute of Forensic Medicine in Norway lie the remains of Julia Pastrana, half hidden in a black plastic sack, all but forgotten. Yet in the middle of the nineteenth century, this 'ape woman' was renowned, visited by scientists of international repute, and drawing the populace of three continents to the freakshows in which she starred. Just 4ft 6in tall, she was covered in hair, with a protruding jaw; but she also spoke several languages, married, had a child, made money. This is the compelling and strange story of how a woman born in the backwoods of Mexico came to be one of the most infamous women in Europe and America and how, nearly 150 years after she first set foot upon the stage, Julia is still being shown to others. The exhibition goes on.

A comprehensive examination of Kristeva's work from the seventies to the nineties. Honorable Mention, 2006 Goethe Award for Psychoanalytic Scholarship presented by the Section on Psychoanalysis of the Canadian Psychological Association This is the first systematic overview of Julia Kristeva's vision and work in relation to philosophical modernity. It provides a clear, comprehensive, and interdisciplinary analysis of her thought on psychoanalysis, art, ethics, politics, and feminism in the secular aftermath of religion.

Julia Lathrop

Julia Lathrop

Miriam Cohen

Westview Press Inc
2017
pokkari
Julia Lathrop was a social servant, government activist, and social scientist who expanded notions of women's proper roles in public life during the early 1900s. Appointed as chief of the U.S. Children's Bureau, created in 1912 to promote child welfare, she was the first woman to head a United States federal agency. Throughout her life, Lathrop challenged the social norms of the time and became instrumental in shaping Progressive reform. She began her career at Hull House in Chicago, the nation's most famous social settlement, where she worked to improve public and private welfare for poor people, helped establish America's first juvenile court, and pushed for immigrant rights. Lathrop was also co-founder of one of America's first schools of social work. Later in life she became a leader in the League of Women Voters and an advisor on child welfare to the League of Nations. Following Lathrop's life from her childhood and college education through her social service and government work, this book gives an overview of her enduring contribution to progressive politics, women's employment, and women's education. It also offers a look at how one influential woman worked within the bounds of traditional conventions about gender, race, and class, and also pushed against them.

Julia S. Tutwiler and Social Progress in Alabama

Julia S. Tutwiler and Social Progress in Alabama

Anne Gary Pannell; Dorothea E. Wyatt

The University of Alabama Press
2004
nidottu
This biography traces the life of Julia Strudwick Tutwiler (1841-1916) from her childhood in Alabama through her pioneering accomplishments as a teacher, administrator, and humanitarian. Born in Tuscaloosa in 1841, Tutwiler was encouraged by her father - an educational innovator and founder of a private academy in Greene County - to pursue academic subjects typically reserved for men. To that end, Henry Tutwiler financed his daughter's studies at Vassar, in Germany and Paris, and under professors at Washington and Lee University in Virginia. After returning to Alabama in 1876, Tutwiler accepted an appointment as a teacher of modern language and literature at the Tuscaloosa Female College. While in this position, she began her work as one of Alabama's earliest advocates for women's rights and educational reform and also led a campaign with the Women's Christian Temperance Union against alcoholism, worked for the improvement of prison conditions and rehabilitative services for prisoners, and supported the expansion of state teacher training. From Paul Pruitt's new introduction, we learn that ""anyone who reads biographies of Tutwiler and [Booker T.] Washington will notice the similarities of their lives and work. Both were products of the Old South who ran their respective institutions with paternalistic attention to detail. Both promoted vocational education as the means by which marginalized groups could rise, and each displayed talent for promoting change without ruffling the 'Bourbon' oligarchy. Tutwiler and Washington became, respectively, the state's unofficial representatives of women and African Americans.

Julia Child's the French Chef

Julia Child's the French Chef

Dana Polan

Duke University Press
2011
sidottu
Julia Child’s TV show, The French Chef, was extraordinarily popular during its broadcast from 1963 until 1973. Child became a cultural icon in the 1960s, and, in the years since, she and her show have remained enduring influences on American cooking, American television, and American culture. In this concise book, Dana Polan considers what made Child’s program such a success. It was not the first televised cooking show, but it did define and popularize the genre. Polan examines the development of the show, its day-to-day production, and its critical and fan reception. He argues that The French Chef changed the conventions of television’s culinary culture by rendering personality indispensable. Child was energetic and enthusiastic, and her cooking lessons were never just about food preparation, although she was an effective and unpretentious instructor. They were also about social mobility, the discovery of foreign culture, and a personal enjoyment and fulfillment that promised to transcend domestic drudgery. Polan situates Julia Child and The French Chef in their historical and cultural moment, while never losing sight of Child’s unique personality and captivating on-air presence.

Julia Margaret Cameron Biography

Julia Margaret Cameron Biography

Colin Ford

J. Paul Getty Museum
2003
nidottu
British photographer Julia Margaret Cameron (1815-1879) has been described as one of the Finest portraitists of the nineteenth century-in any medium. Raised in a well-connected and creative family, Cameron led an unconventional life for a woman of the Victorian age. After devoting herself to an artistic and literary salon at her home on the Isle of Wight and raising eleven children, Cameron took up photography in her late forties. Over the next fourteen years, she produced more than a thousand strikingly original and often controversial images. Her searching portraits of her friends and acquaintances, including Alfred Tennyson and Charles Darwin, have been called the world's first close-ups. This biography casts new light on the artist's links with the leading cultural figures of her time and on the techniques she used to achieve her distinctive style. It is published to coincide with a travelling exhibition of Cameron's photographs that will be on display at the National Portrait Gallery, London, and the National Museum of Photography, Film and Televison, Bradford, England, in spring 2003 and will open at the Getty Museum in October 2003.
