Feminist Periodicals: A Cyrrent Listing of Contents is published by the Office of the UniversHy of Wisconsin System Women's Studies Librarian on a quarterly basis with the intent of increasing public awareness of feminist periodicals. It is our hope that Feminist Periodicals will serve several purposes: to keep the reader abreast of current topics in feminist literature; to increase readers' familiarHy wHh awide spectrum of feminist periodicals; and to provide the requisHe bibliographic information should areader wish to subscribe to ajournal or to obtain a particular article at her library or through interlibrary loan.

Table of contents pages from current issues of major feminist journals are reproduced In each issue of Feminist Periodicals, preceded by a comprehensive annotated listing of all journals we have selected. As publication schedules vary enormously, not every periodical will have lable of contents pages reproduced in each issue of Ef. The annotated listing provides the following information on each journal: 1. Year of first publication. 2. Frequency of publication. 3. U.S. subscription price(s). 4. Subscription address. 5.

Please note that in the actual text, only the numbers 1 to 12 are used to identify the different categories of information. ii. Our goal is to have represented in ffall English-language feminist periodicals with a substantial national or regional readership, wijh an emphasis on scholarly journals and small press offerings. We do not include publications which, though feminist in philosophy, do not focus solely on women's issues. Nor, with few exceptions, do we include newsstand magazines. We are also forced to omij periodicals which lack a complete table of contents. We encourage feminist serials to build a full table of contents into their regular format to facilitate the indexing feminist merature sorely needs. Interested readers will find more complete information on feminist periodicals in The Index/Directory of Women's Media published annually by the Women's Insmute for Freedom of the Press (3306 Ross Place, NW, Washington, DC 20008); and in Women's Periodicals and Newspapers; A Union List olthe Holdings of Madison Area Libraries, edijed by James P. Danky, compiled by Maureen E. Hady, Barry Christopher, and Neill E. Strache (Boston: GK Hall, 1982). Suggestions for improvements of Feminist Periodicals are gratefully received.

Since 2000, a group of independent printmaking workshops began to form a coalition, the CONSEJO GRÁFICO, to "advance Latino printmakers' capacity and legacy in the United States." This beautiful series of prints constitutes their third Portfolio Exchange. The Portfolio, an edition of 30, gathers 19 participating artists, each contributing to print MAJESTIC IMPRESIONS 2017 1 The Portfolio's title, LA HUELLA MAGISTRAL: HOMAGE TO MASTER PRINTMAKERS, reveals the charitable purpose of the participating artists: to honor their teachers — master printmakers who taught, mentored, or inspired them.

  • A Critical Study of Transsexual Transition in a Familial Context
    1 Straddling the scalpel of identity: a critical study of transsexual transition in a familial context Claire Elizabeth Jenkins Doctor of Philosophy Sociological Studies December 2012 2 Acknowledgements Many have helped me. Firstly I would like to thank my immediate family, my ex-wife and my four children, for sharing in my transition which was the genesis of this research. I very much appreciate the invaluable help given by Dr Emily Gray in formulating my original research proposal. Perlin Dobson and David Jackson, my dear friends, have consistently supported me through transition to submission. David read many of my drafts and gave me critical feedback. Perlin gave emotional support when times were difficult. I am very appreciative of the invaluable advice and support given by Kevin Mahoney of Sheffield University Careers Service. These friends together with Nirmal Fernando, David Jones, Professor Stephen Whittle, Dr Roshan das Nair, Jayne Tulip and Imogen Hale were especially helpful when I experienced a major setback. They helped me to re-continue afterwards. I would also like to more formally thank my supervisors, Dr Victoria Robinson, Dr Lorna Warren and Professor Jenny Hockey, who taught me much about sociological writing and thought and who gave extensive critical feedback. Dr Warren has especially helped me regain academic confidence during 2012. I am also grateful for the informed critiques received from Professor Ruth McDonald, Professor Brendan Gough and David Miers. I am especially grateful to Brenda Stephenson and Dawn Montiel for the proof reading early drafts. I would also like to thank Duncan Macmillan House Staff Library and Nottingham Trent University Library Staff for supporting me locally through book acquisition, loans and for obtaining journal articles.

    TESTIMONIO MARGARET RANDALL Recordando El Corno Emplumado n 1961 yo era una poeta en ciernes y madre soltera de mi primer hijo, Gregory. Vivía en la ciudad de Nueva York Ey comenzaba a conocer a otros poetas y a perfeccionar mi oficio. Había publicado por mi cuenta dos breves poema- rios, había aparecido en dos o tres publicaciones literarias y enfrentado mi primera lectura de poesía en un café. También experimentaba un despertar de la conciencia política común a muchas personas de mi edad, jóvenes que sentían un inquieto inconformismo sofocado por el manto del período macartista, aunque habíamos nacido demasiado tarde para ser víctimas directas del asedio represivo. En el verano de ese año abordé con mi hijo de diez meses un ómnibus Greyhound con destino a la Ciudad de México. Solo unos meses antes pensaba que Nueva York, o más pre- No. 280 julio-septiembre/2015 pp. 100-118 pp. julio-septiembre/2015 280 No. cisamente su Lower East Side, era el único lugar del mundo en el que podía vivir un escritor.

  • From Test-Tube Women to Bodies Without Women Women's Studies
    Women's Studies International Forum 31 (2008) 157–175 Contents lists available at ScienceDirect Women's Studies International Forum journal homepage: www.elsevier.com/locate/wsif From test-tube women to bodies without women Renate Klein Feminist International Network of Resistance to Reproductive and Genetic Engineering (FINRRAGE), PO Box 212, North Melbourne Victoria 3051, Australia article info synopsis Available online 5 June 2008 In this article I summarise twenty-five years of international feminist resistance to reproductive and genetic engineering. Drawing on the work of FINRRAGE (Feminist International Network of Resistance to Reproductive and Genetic Engineering) I list the main objections of feminist critics to the global commodification of women. Under the guise of ‘doing good’ and the catch cry ‘women want it’ (i.e. allegedly to alleviate the suffering of infertility/too much fertility, or eliminate genetic imperfection), reproductive and genetic engineers have reduced women — and their babies — to a series of body parts and tissues that can be traded, screened and eliminated at will. Discussions include the many physiological as well as psychological dangers inherent in the medicalisation of in/fertile women's lives and their children through the Big Business of in vitro fertilisation (IVF) and related genetic technologies in a global context. I also critically examine the pro-technology position of liberal feminists including their much touted concept of ‘choice’. Lastly, I ask where the recent opening of the door to embryonic stem cell research via commercial and ‘altruistic’ egg cell ‘donation’ is taking society and how long it will be before cloning of human beings is justified as ‘for our own good’ and women's alienation to their own body (parts) will lead to their annihilation.
