The New Biographical Dictionary of Scottish Women is a fully revised and extended edition of a highly regarded reference work that illuminates the lives of Scottish women in history. It includes more than 180 additional entries on women who died before 2018, forty new photographs, and an extended thematic index.

L'évolution de la condition féminine en Grande-Bretagne à travers les textes juridiques fondamentaux de 1830 à 1975. Entre 1830 et 1975, le statut social, économique et politique des femmes, en Grande-Bretagne comme ailleurs, s'est profondément transformé. Des avancées, certes réelles, furent gagnées par les femmes britanniques, mais au prix d'innombrables revers, déceptions et faux départs. Présentées et traduites ici pour la première fois en français, les quatorze lois fondamentales qui ont été choisies retracent les grandes tendances de l'évolution de la condition féminine outre-Manche. Loin de s'en tenir au texte seul, l'auteur s'attache à rappeler les circonstances historiques qui entourent le vote de chaque loi, de leur conception intellectuelle à leur mise en pratique par l'État, sans oublier d'inclure et c'est là l'une des originalités de l'approche de Neil Davie, les réactions souvent conflictuelles qu'elles ont suscitées de la part des intéressées. Cette étude permet aux lecteurs et aux lectrices d'explorer ce que le législateur a voulu permettre et interdire aux femmes. Le texte juridique apparaît ainsi comme un outil précieux d'analyse pour cerner les mentalités et interroger le rôle et le statut des femmes durant cette période. L'ouvrage s'adresse aux juristes, aux spécialistes de l'histoire et de la civilisation britannique comme de l'histoire des femmes et de l'étude du genre, mais également à tous ceux et à toutes celles qui s'intéressent aux droits des femmes en général.

"Seule, une jeune femme prend l'avion pour Téhéran. Du dédale des rues aux marchés fourmillants, elle plonge dans la vie iranienne et se lie à Tala, qui vient de perdre sa mère dont elle ignore le passé. Quel secret cette femme gardait-elle enfoui ? Leur quête les mène, avec la petite Bijan, jusqu'aux rivages de Qeshm, "l'île longue" au sable noir et d'argent. C'est là, entre mer et désert, que se révèle à elles le prix de la liberté. À travers son écriture envoûtante, Victoire de Changy démêle les fils d'une histoire intime et politique et confirme son talent d'auteure."--Page 4 of cover.

The cases of Israel and Palestine offer a particularly interesting vantage point for analyzing ‘uses of the past’. Both states’ legal trajectories follow from developments in the late Ottoman and British Mandate (1922–1948) periods, and their legal frameworks are characterized by an interesting overlapping of legislations and legal traditions. At the same time, the different political and social contextual frameworks in which Palestinian Muslims operate (living in Palestine, i.e. West Bank and Gaza Strip, or inside Israel) have a profound impact on legal debates and the practical solutions devised by judges and practitioners. This poses unusual challenges to Palestinian Muslim legal theorists and practitioners about how to face modernity and social change, leading to an interesting debate among scholars of legal pluralism, legal anthropology and Muslim law. The book "Uses of the Past" focuses on the relationship between Gender and Sharīʿa, aiming at analyzing how the past of Muslim tradition is invoked when dealing with gender issues and family law and how it is used to support legal change and reform in contemporary Muslim discourse. This edited volume is one of the outcomes of the HERA (Humanities in the European Research Area) project “Understanding Sharīʿa: Past Perfect, Imperfect Present” (US-PPIP) and includes eight articles by international scholars and practitioners.
