Abstract

Logan, a young Canadian priest, finds himself in Jangaland, an African country in the throes of post-independence violence. His friendly relationship with the family of a rebel leader does not endear him to the ruling administration. He is thrown out of the country. Even before he leaves, the leader and his wife are killed. The rebel's daughter, Zinga, miraculously survives the extermination plot and ends up in an orphanage where his true identity is concealed. When she comes of age, she bears a stunning resemblance to her mother. With her life in danger, and aided by family friends who reveal her true identity, she escapes from the country. Now a refugee, her tribulations are just beginning. She is exploited by an immigration official, reduced into a sex slave by a rebel force. She survives and is eventually joined by her husband who was in Jangaland. Plans to make a fresh start are botched. Drug dealers kill her husband. She is despondent but a miracle occurs. Logan traces her whereabouts and it is in Canada that she recounts her story to a psychiatrist.

Abstract

Quel lien existe-t-il entre les suffragettes et Jeanne d’Arc ? Les guerriers Vikings seraient-ils en réalité des guerrières ? Les femmes ont occupé des postes de pouvoir tout au long de l’histoire. Mais, à part quelques rares exceptions, pourquoi n’entendons-nous pas parler d’elles ?Le Moyen Âge est souvent considéré comme une période sombre, une société patriarcale qui opprimait et excluait les femmes. Janina Ramirez, historienne à la BBC, éclaire d’un jour nouveau cette époque en réhabilitant de nombreuses femmes influentes rayées des documents historiques.À travers les récits vivants et évocateurs du destin de ces femmes remarquables, ce livre révèle non seulement les raisons de leur effacement de nos mémoires collectives, mais nous invite aussi à dépasser nos idées reçues et à repenser notre vision contemporaine de l’histoire.

Abstract

With the phenomenal success of the England Football team at the Euros 2022, this book meets the renewed interest in women in sport. It provides a fascinating overview of the history of women in sport from centuries past to the present day, demonstrating the leaps forward that sportswomen have taken since 1945, as well as an inspiring account of great female Paralympians. The 25 profiles of incredible female pioneers and legends evidence the grit and determination required to challenge discrimination, to break records and demolish outdated notions of the weaker sex. The recent investment in women's sports, as seen for football, rugby and cricket, has driven greater popularity and success. This book also includes a wonderful selection of interviews with over 25 women competing in a wide range of sports today, as well as leading figures in the industry, coaches, referees, presenters, and broadcasters. -- Provided by publisher
