Abstract:

The paper is devoted to the tacit and veiled tyranny, a concept developed by Bartolus de Saxoferrato in his treatise On the Tyrant (De tyranno), widely regarded as an outstanding representative of the commentator school. In addition to his strictly legal work, which consists of commentaries on individual parts of the Corpus iuris civilis, he is also the author of political and legal treatises, dealing with important topics for the inhabitants of late medieval Italy. In the treatise, he decided to discuss in detail the theme of tyranny from the perspective of a jurist interested in solving the

Abstract:

The world is too complex to explain and deconstruct without a thorough objective, fair, and deep research. Simplification of meaning becomes the alternative to thorough research. Something would be easier to understand if people could make the meaning simple. It is easier to understand if a case that involve a man as a perpetrator and especially the woman as a victim is a case of patriarchy. But there are many factors to be considered in order to judge a problematical case. This is the case for the short story Storm by Mcknight Malmar, the story suggest that it was liberating for female to giv

She also sought to find a positive response to this tyranny which makes women a dependent being, by reflecting on another form of relationship between man and woman and on a new role that women could play within the society. After being a victim, the Sandian woman becomes an educator of herself and others, a true mediator before engaging in social life alongside men.

Abstract:

Abstract I explore the violent deaths of Jacobean heroines on stage, looking at their fetishised dead bodies as a register of male repressed fear of women’s physicality that is perceived essentially as the equation between womb and tomb. I argue that this fetishisation is a hegemonic effort to combat this fear through the consigning of the heroines’ bodies to utter destruction. However, there is a residue left from the dialectic of death and desire that runs through Jacobean tragedy and sexualises the political issue of tyranny. The heroines’ violent deaths, while not expressing heroic transce

Abstract:

The renowned Bangladeshi novelist Humayun Ahmed is well-known for his engaging stories, easy narratives, satiric tone, and humorous characters. Despite being a popular writer, he has gained less critical acclaim than comparable novelists from other countries. One of his best works Kothao Keu Nei (There Is No One Anywhere) was a huge success both as a novel and as a television adaptation. The novel essentially centres on the leading female character Muna’s struggle in a male-dominated society. It also focuses on the lives of some other women who are subjected to patriarchal tyranny.

Abstract This article introduces the work of Belgian designer Glenn Martens as creative director of the Paris-based brand Y/Project and its “unisex” approach to fashion. Drawing on queer theory and theories of non-binary and genderqueer identities, the proposed investigation addresses the power of fashion in rethinking bodily gender boundaries and in imagining possible escapes from the tyranny of the gender binary in fashion. To do so, I propose a qualitative multidimensional reading of the brand, in which I look at how Martens critically questions normative assumptions about masculinity and t

Abstract:

The fiction from 1770 to 1830 shows the strains of a society that increasingly identified cultural consumption with gender. Whereas the sentimental novels of the 1770s used epistolary narrators to relate stories of love and feeling from the perspective of both men and women, by the 1790s the new, Gothic novels were centred on women besieged by tyranny from without and uncertainty from within. This genre fiction contributed to the derogation of the novel and its association with an undiscriminating female audience. Throughout the period, women were held up as the quintessential novel-readers be

This chapter explores the connections anti-Mormons made between private and public in Mormonism. They contended that the institution of polygamy was inseparable from the practice of political theocracy in Utah and that polygamy replaced the marital contract with male tyranny in the household. That tyranny, by extension, replaced the fraternal contract of a republican social order with patriarchal political despotism that flew in the face of American political values. Moreover, anti-Mormons claimed that because of polygamy, the structure of government in Utah was imbued with Church authority an

Abstract:

The practice of philanthropy, which generously releases private property for public purposes, represents in many ways the best angels of our nature. But this practice’s noteworthy virtues often blind us to the exercises of private power that it represents. The Tyranny of Generosity argues that this private power threatens foundations of a democratic society. The deployment of private wealth for public ends rivals the authority of communities to determine their own affairs. And, in societies characterized by wide disparities in wealth, philanthropy combines with background inequalities to make

Abstract:

This chapter returns to Latin discourse, seeking to define what fifteenth-century humanist treatments of tyranny have in common, and what distinguishes them from their classical and medieval counterparts. To this end, the chapter confronts the numerous (self-)contradictions in the works of Poggio Bracciolini, educated in republican Florence, and Giovanni Pontano, employed in Naples by the royal dynasty. While their arguments range from the rejection of all rulers as tyrants to the education of the ideal prince, both authors depend on the same philosophical frameworks (Aristotle and the Stoa) a

Human agency is recognized in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights through guaranteed rights, such as the right to life, basic education, freedom of expression, and the freedom to form personal relationships, which all protect humans from tyranny and oppression.

There were at least twenty-four published interventions, and Fawwaz wrote a long response that appeared years later in her collected essays but remained unpublished at the time. The essay is no less important for that, showing Fawwaz’s participation in debate and the extent to which issues of ‘gender’ an

Abstract:

Abstract Pericles is no tyrant in Athens. He is a leader of a people who detest tyranny, who follow him freely because they recognize his wisdom and virtue (2.65). But there is a great irony in the story as the historian tells it: These people who hate tyrants have themselves become tyrants. The Athenians have made them- selves masters of an empire by brute force, and Pericles, who led the Athenians to the flowering of their democracy, has now led it to its precarious position as tyrant of an empire.

Virginia Woolf’s writing in the 1930’s reveals her conviction that the training for male superiority and dominance begins in the family home, is "fostered and cherished by education and tradition," and leads inevitably to the oppression of weaker nations by stronger nations. Woolf came to see herself in the battle against fascism as one who reveals dictatorship at home; she writes, “…I should evolve some plan for fighting English tyranny." Even Woolf’s working title for her final novel reflects her abiding interest in the home and the role it plays in the construction of “English tyranny.” As

Abstract Sami Rafiq’s “Green Tree Stumps” is set against the traditional Asian Muslim mindset in which a woman has little to say or decide as far as her life or future are concerned. Pegah, the heroine of the story has a psychic connection with the world of nature specifically the trees. The perils that nature faces in the anthropocene are quite similar to what women face in patriarchy. Both Pegah and the trees are victims of mercenary propaganda symbolised by numbers and figures and in a male-ordered world, their worth is defined by those numbers.

Lucy Hall examines how three novels by women published before, during and just after the Second World War reframe wider social concerns over gender and power through the prism of the domestic space. The essay suggests that the authors discussed embody a mid-century perspective that characterizes a number of interfeminist texts. The novels express cultural fears alongside wider themes of invasion, tyranny, and power as they expose how the domestic sphere becomes a contested space in which broad-ranging anxieties are played out. In the context of the 1930s and 1940s the essay speculates on the i

It focused on women's struggle for recognition and survival and made them realise that the time has come when they should stop suffering silently in helplessness. The images of women in South Asian novels have also undergone a change in the last three decades. Earlier women were conceived as a symbol of self sacrifice and suffering.
