The Sirens of the Hotel Louvre - Serge Gregory - Bog - Cornell University Press - Plusbog.dk

Combining history and biography, The Sirens of the Hotel Louvre focuses on the intimate relationship and professional collaboration between two creative women in Russia's Silver Age (1880s–1920). The actress Lidia Yavorskaya and the writer Tatiana Shchepkina-Kupernik overcame moral and social boundaries to assert themselves as successful artists. Their lives intersected with practically all the major theatrical entrepreneurs and artists of the period in Moscow and St. Petersburg, most notably Anton Chekhov. The opening in the 1880s of private theaters in Moscow and St. Petersburg resulted in an extraordinary flourishing of the dramatic arts, exposing theatergoers to the latest works by both Russian and Western European playwrights. In The Sirens of the Hotel Louvre, Yavorskaya and Shchepkina-Kupernik serve as guides to this remarkable artistic and literary world. Serge Gregory shows how their success in fashioning independent careers reflects the emergence of the theater as one of the few professional paths available for educated women in nineteenth-century Russia who wished to escape the constraints of traditional family life.

Egill Jacobsen 3 - Per Hovdenakk - Bog - Gyldendal - Plusbog.dk

Med maleren Egill Jacobsens død i 1998 blev der sat punktum for 70 års kunstnerisk virke.Med sine banebrydende spontant-abstrakte billeder fra den sidste halvdel af 1930’erne satte han gang i udviklingen i dansk kunst blandt sine jævnaldrende. Det førte til et nyt ”abstrakt” maleri, som via COBRA-bevægelsen kom til at sætte præg på europæisk kunst i årtierne efter 1950.Meget tyder på, at det kunstsyn Egill Jacobsen bidrog til, nu vækker fornyet interesse og skaber større indsigt. Det kan bl.a. spores i ”det nye maleri”, der er vokset frem i de senere år.I Egill Jacobsen 3 giver Per Hovdenakk et rids over Egill Jacobsens liv. Bogen er en værkfortegnelse over Egill Jacobsens malerier fra 1980-1998. Disse malerier er primært solgt til private samlere. Egill Jacobsen udstillede ikke meget i den periode, og disse malerier er derfor ukendte for det store publikum. Per Hovdenakk har tidligere skrevet Egill Jacobsen 1, Malerier 1928-65 og Egill Jacobsen 2, Malerier 1965-80.Dansk og engelsk tekst.

Making Minimum Wage - Helen J. Knowles - Bog - University of Oklahoma Press - Plusbog.dk

The US Supreme Court''s 1937 decision in West Coast Hotel v. Parrish , upholding the constitutionality of Washington State''s minimum wage law for women, had monumental consequences for all American workers. It also marked a major shift in the Court''s response to President Franklin D. Roosevelt''s New Deal agenda. In Making Minimum Wage , Helen J. Knowles tells the human story behind this historic case. West Coast Hotel v. Parrish pitted a Washington State hotel against a chambermaid, Elsie Parrish, who claimed that she was owed the state''s minimum wage. The hotel argued that under the concept of "freedom of contract," the US Constitution allowed it to pay its female workers whatever low wages they were willing to accept. Knowles unpacks the legal complexities of the case while telling the litigants'' stories. Drawing on archival and private materials, including the unpublished memoir of Elsie''s lawyer, C. B. Conner, Knowles exposes the profound courage and resolve of the former chambermaid. Her book reveals why Elsie-who, in her mid-thirties was already a grandmother-was fired from her job at the Cascadian Hotel in Wenatchee, and why she undertook the outsized risk of suing the hotel for back wages. Minimum wage laws are "not an academic question or even a legal one," Elinore Morehouse Herrick, the New York director of the National Labor Relations Board, said in 1936. Rather, they are "a human problem." A pioneering analysis that illuminates the life stories behind West Coast Hotel v. Parrish as well as the case''s impact on local, state, and national levels, Making Minimum Wage vividly demonstrates the fundamental truth of Morehouse Herrick''s statement.
