En 1915, en su primera novela, Fin de viaje, Virginia Woolf predecía: «Harán falta seis generaciones para que las mujeres salgan a la superficie». Más de un siglo después, aunque es indudable que en ciertas sociedades se ha avanzado, cabe preguntarse si la predicción se ha cumplido. En todo caso, mirar atrás, recordar el camino que abrieron las pioneras, y de qué modo, siempre es útil para dar nuevos pasos. Esto es lo que plantea Lyndall Gordon en Proscritas, donde ofrece ilustrativas y detalladas semblanzas biográficas de cinco grandes escritoras que tomaron la palabra en una sociedad que habría preferido que estuvieran calladas: Mary Shelley («Prodigio»), Emily Bronté («Visionaria»), George Eliot («Rebelde»), Olive Schreiner («Oradora») y Virginia Woolf («Exploradora»). Trazando vínculos a veces dolorosos entre su vida y su obra, Gordon escarba en sus ambiguas relaciones familiares, en su deseo de educación (rara vez cumplido con la ayuda de sus padres), en su concepción del anonimato, en su posición frente a la jerarquía social, los hombres y el sexo, en su rechazo de los artificios de feminidad y en su indagación productiva en el silencio y la sombra. En uno de sus últimos libros, Virginia Woolf se declararía miembro de la Sociedad de las Proscritas, una organización secreta de mujeres que, como dice la autora de este libro, «invierte la idea romántica y doliente del proscrito aislado y propone, por el contrario, una causa común». Una causa que empieza con Mary Shelley y que acaba ampliando el feminismo «hacia una confrontación con el poder en sí mismo».

Foreign capital and free trade policies have provoked fierce conflicts in South America in recent years. People in Colombia and Peru engaged in often violent clashes to defend their livelihoods against the encroachments of the free market and the impositions of Wall Street. Farmers organized to save their lands from foreign mining corporations, and cities fought to save their water from contamination. Native Americans blocked highways to preserve ancestral lands, while students paralyzed universities and called for reforms to higher education. The shift toward socialism in Venezuela, led by President Hugo Chávez, was bitterly opposed by privileged groups. Governments tried to quell the turmoil through repression, political maneuvering and propaganda. This book provides a dramatic account of the struggles.

By emphasizing Latin American reformers’ decades-long struggle to defeat authoritarianism, this transnational history challenges the timeworn Cold War paradigm and recasts the region’s political evolution Scholars persist in framing the Cold War as a battle between left and right, one in which the Global South is cast as either witting or unwitting proxies of Washington and Moscow. What if the era is told from the perspective of the many who preferred reform to revolution? Scholars have routinely neglected, dismissed, or caricatured moderate politicians. In this book, Allen Wells argues that until the Cuban Revolution, the struggle was not between capitalism and communism—that was Washington’s abiding preoccupation—but between democracy and dictatorship. Beginning in the 1920s, the fight against authoritarianism was contested on multiple fronts—political, ideological, and cultural—taking on the dimensions of a political crusade. Convinced that despots represented an existential threat, reformers declared that no civilian government was safe until the cancer of dictatorship was excised from the hemisphere. Dictators retaliated, often with deadly results, exporting strategies that had been honed at home to guarantee their political survival. Grafted onto this war without borders was a belated Cold War, with all its political convulsions, the aftershocks of which are still felt today.

El objetivo de Estereotipos de género en el trabajo es aportar respuestas a la pregunta de por qué no hay igualdad de género en el ámbito laboral, teniendo también en cuenta que la educación secundaria y postsecundaria de las mujeres es igual a la de los hombres. Más específicamente, el objetivo de M. Àngels Viladot y Melanie C. Steffens ha sido analizar los factores y mecanismos que conducen a la discriminación de las mujeres en lo referente a sus carreras profesionales. Las autoras cubren magistralmente los aspectos y enfoques más importantes de la investigación en esta área desde la perspectiva de la psicología social. Concluyen con una metáfora de «la mujer corredora de carreras de obstáculos», una lucha en la que una mujer tiene que superar muchos escollos para tener éxito.

Although nearly everyone has heard the name of Robin Hood, few have actually read any medieval tales about the legendary outlaw. Stephen Knight and Thomas Ohlgren set out to correct this discrepancy in their comprehensive collection of all pre-seventeenth-century Robin Hood tales. The editors include such other "outlaw" figures as Hereward the Wake, Eustache the Monk, and Fouke le Fitz Waryn to further contextualize the tradition of English outlaw tales. In this text the figure of Robin Hood can be viewed in historical perspective, from the early accounts in the chronicles through the ballads, plays, and romances that grew around his fame and impressed him on our fictional and historical imaginations. This edition is particularly useful for classrooms, with its extensive introductions, notes, and glosses, enabling students of any level to approach the texts in their original Middle English.
