Not only men who has bravery in theirself but also women. Nowadays there are still so many women are not brave enough to express their opinion and what they think right to do.

Women has the same freedom with man to express and do what they want to do, what they think right to do. God has indeed created different between women and men to complement each other. Each has their own rights, obligations, and roles. Perhaps in some cases women and men can exchange roles but that does not necessarily serve as a footing that men and women can replace each other.

[MUSIC] Once upon a time in Southaven Mississippi, a young lawyer witnessed a trial. The trial inspired him to write a book. It was a good book, but it didn’t sell. He wrote another book, which nobody wanted to buy, because his first book didn’t sell, but despite this, he was finally able to get it published. That book was The Firm, and it changed John Grisham’s life. Incidentally, it changed ​ ​ my husband’s life, as well, and I’m so grateful. The Firm was the book that made Will fall in love ​ ​ with reading, finally, when he was seventeen years old, because NOBODY writes a breathless legal thriller like Grisham. Because of The Firm’s huge success, Grisham was hired to write The ​ ​ ​ ​ Pelican Brief, my favorite Grisham novel, and one that’s overlooked these days—but I have to ​ ​ ​ tell you about it because it is One.

  • Ecopolitics: the Environment in Poststructuralist Thought
    Ecopolitics Rethinking the conditions of life, space and the state of the world figured prominently in the events of 1968, yet little attention is now being paid to ecological themes that arose in this influential period. Ecopolitics reassesses awareness—or non-awareness—of ecological issues in the work of key French poststructural thinkers and others affected by these events. Calling into question the status of the ‘subject,’ poststructuralism has been driven not only by feminism but by various findings, in both the social and applied sciences, that bear a strong ecological consciousness. Poststructuralism has continued to open new ways of thinking about the world and of studying concrete conditions of life. Its long-range effects are made possible by an enviromental awareness that remains today at the heart of issues concerning cultural theory. Pointing first to some currently disparaging critiques of ecology in the work of Luc Ferry and Jean Baudrillard, Ecopolitics then returns to Claude Lévi-Strauss’ critical reading of Sartre, which led the way towards ecological thinking in contemporary theory. Through a reading of key texts by Bateson Serres, Prigogine and Stergers, Virilio, Guattari, Cixous, Irigaray and others, Ecopolitics illustrates how by means of reassessing nature and questioning technologies, a shift away from humanism has played a key role in shaping ecological thought. Ecopolitics will appeal to students concerned with the environment and those engaged in gender and cultural studies. Verena Andermatt Conley is Professor of French at Miami University, Ohio, and Visiting Professor at Harvard University. Her previous publications include Hélène Cixous: Writing the Feminine (1984, 1991); and Hélène Cixous (1992).

  • John Grisham
    JOHN GRISHAM Long before his name became synonymous with the modern legal thriller, he was working 60-70 hours a week at a small Southaven, Mississippi, law practice, squeezing in time before going to the office and during courtroom recesses to work on his hobby—writing his first novel. Born on February 8, 1955 in Jonesboro, Arkansas, to a construction worker and a homemaker, John Grisham as a child dreamed of being a professional baseball player. Realizing he didn’t have the right stuff for a pro career, he shifted gears and majored in accounting at Mississippi State University. After graduating from law school at Ole Miss in 1981, he went on to practice law for nearly a decade in Southaven, specializing in criminal defense and personal injury litigation. In 1983, he was elected to the state House of Representatives and served until 1990. One day at the DeSoto County courthouse, Grisham overheard the harrowing testimony of a twelve-year-old rape victim and was inspired to start a novel exploring what would have happened if the girl’s father had murdered her assailants. Getting up at 5 a.m. every day to get in several hours of writing time before heading off to work, Grisham spent three years on A Time to Kill and finished it in 1987. Initially rejected by many publishers, it was eventually bought by Wynwood Press, who gave it a modest 5,000 copy printing and published it in June 1988. That might have put an end to Grisham’s hobby. However, he had already begun his next book, and it would quickly turn that hobby into a new full-time career—and spark one of publishing’s greatest success stories.
