"Women brewed and sold most of the ale drunk in medieval England, but after 1350, men slowly took over the trade. By 1600, most brewers in London - as well as in many towns and villages - were male, not female. Ale, Beer, and Brewsters in England investigates this transition, asking how, when, and why brewing ceased to be a women's trade and became a trade of men." "Drawing on a wide variety of sources - such as literary and artistic materials, court records, accounts, and administrative orders - Judith Bennett vividly describes how brewsters (that is, female brewers) slowly left the trade. She tells a story of commercial growth, gild formation, changing technologies, innovative regulations, and finally, enduring ideas that linked brewsters with drunkenness and disorder." "Examining this instance of seemingly dramatic change in women's status, Bennett argues that it included significant elements of continuity. Women might not have brewed in 1600 as often as they had in 1300, but they still worked predominantly in low-status, low-skilled, and poorly remunerated tasks. Using the experiences of brewsters to rewrite the history of women's work during the rise of capitalism, Ale, Beer, and Brewsters in England offers a telling story of the endurance of patriarchy in a time of dramatic economic change."--Jacket.

In this groundbreaking volume, contemporary art historians--all of them women--probe the dilemmas and complexities of writing about the woman artist, past and present. Singular Women proposes a new feminist investigation of the history of art by considering how a historian's theoretical approach affects the way in which research progresses and stories are told.

"This is the first book to deal exclusively with women writers of the liberal-left in the 1930s. The volume has a double purpose: to examine what is radical about women's writing and to draw attention to the richness, diversity and complexity of texts which have often been omitted or marginalised in critical discussion of the period. The contributors offer a broad understanding of the political to encompass a wide range of concerns including matters of race, class, nation, sexuality, personal relationships, and the uses and abuses of power."--Jacket.

Seks is van alle tijden. Maar de seksuele normen zijn door de tijd heen ontzettend veranderd. Wat in de middeleeuwen de regel was, komt vandaag soms hilarisch of absurd over. Seksuologische en minder logische verhalen vertelt over de vele verschillende opvattingen over seks die in de loop der geschiedenis de culturele revue zijn gepasseerd.Van de Romeinse Ars Amandi en de Indiase Kama Sutra via Freuds psychoanalyse tot moderne wetenschappelijke en erotische literatuur: de fascinatie voor seks is eeuwenoud. In heidense godsdiensten waren beelden die hun geslachtsdelen tentoonspreidden een symbool van vruchtbaarheid, terwijl in de 19e eeuw een kus op de mond al als onzedelijk werd beschouwd. Johan Mattelaer vertelt over de ontwikkeling van seks, van mannen met borsten en vrouwen met baarden tot de ontdekking van de clitoris, homoseksualiteit en vibrators. Johan Mattelaer is uroloog. Met seksuologische en minder logische verhalen geeft hij een boeiend overzicht over de verschillende opvattingen die er door de eeuwen heen over seks bestonden. Eerder schreef hij de fallus, een rijkelijk geïllustreerd standaardwerk over de symboliek van de fallus in de geschiedenis, kunst, cultuur en religie.
