This edited collection examines women's roles in the academy.
Statistics show that women outnumber men in most universities and
that women's pay still lags behind men's, but the numbers only hint
at the broader story. This edited collection fills that gap with
the stories of twelve women-from part-time faculty to college
presidents-who answer key questions such as why they pursued a
career in the academy and how they handled childcare issues and
sexism in the workplace. Advice, encouragement, and caution are
offered to guide those considering a career in the academy and
those already in academe who are wondering about their options.
This book is recommended for burgeoning female scholars and for
established scholars of any gender in women's studies, gender
studies, higher education, and communication studies.
Anna Giro, die Gefahrtin des Komponisten Antonio Vivaldi, beichtet
ihre Lebensgeschichte. Die ihr Stimme gebende Autorin forschte
langer als ein Jahrzehnt, um das bisher vielfach unbekannte und von
Legenden umwobene Leben beider Kunstler nachzuempfinden. Es
entstand ein Werk von hohem Fachwissen und grosser Sensibilitat.
Nichts ist einfach erfunden, von allen Begebenheiten fanden sich
Belege oder zumindest Hinweise. Der Leser erfahrt nicht nur von
Vivaldis Kunst, sondern auch wie er als Mensch war im Kreise seiner
Zeitgenossen. Interessant fur alle, die seine Musik lieben und fur
Liebhaber historischer Romane
