Sentimental Materialism: Gender, Commodity Culture, and Nineteenth-Century American Literature (New Americanists)

Lori Merish


Sentimental Materialism: Gender, Commodity Culture, and Nineteenth-Century American Literature (New Americanists) Lori Merish In Sentimental Materialism Lori Merish considers the intricate relationship between consumption and womanhood in the late eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. Taking as her starting point a diversity of cultural artifacts?from domestic fiction and philosophical treatises to advice literature and cigars?Merish explores the symbolic functions they served and finds that consumption evolved into a form of personal expressiveness that indicated not only a woman?s wealth and taste but also her race, class, morality, and civic values. The discursive production of this new subjectivity?the feminine consumer?was remarkably influential, helping to shape American capitalism, culture, and nation building. The phenomenon of female consumption was capitalism?s complement to male production: It created what Merish calls the ?Other Protestant Ethic,?a feminine and sentimental counterpart to Max Weber?s ethic of hard work, economic rationality, and... книги, книжный магазин, интернет-магазин In Sentimental Materialism Lori Merish considers the intricate relationship between consumption and womanhood in the late eighteenth and nineteenth centuries.

Sun Tzu Was a Sissy : How to Conquer Your Enemies, Promote Your Friends, and Wage the Real Art of War

Stanley Bing


Sun Tzu Was a Sissy : How to Conquer Your Enemies, Promote Your Friends, and Wage the Real Art of War Stanley Bing We live in a vicious, highly competitive workplace environment, and things aren?t getting any better. Jobs are few and far between, and people aren?t any nicer now than they were when Ghengis Khan ran around in big furs killing people in unfriendly acquisitions. For thousands of years, people have been reading the writings of the deeply wise, but also extremely dead Chinese philosopher Sun Tzu, who was perhaps the first to look on the waging of war as a strategic art that could be taught to people who wished to be warlords and other kinds of senior managers. In a nutshell, Sun Tzu taught that readiness is all, that knowledge of oneself and the enemy was the foundation of strength and that those who fight best are those who are prepared and wise enough not to fight at all. Unfortunately, in the current day, this approach is pretty much horse hockey, a fact that has not been recognized by the bloated, tree-hugging Sun Tzu industry, which churns out mushy-gushy... книги, книжный магазин, интернет-магазин We live in a vicious, highly competitive workplace environment, and things aren?t getting any better.
