Abstract:
Purpose This paper aims to reveal the marshalling of an emotion – loneliness – over time for the construction of relationships between advertisers and consumers between 1909 and 1934, paying attention to the shifting contexts in which these relationships were built, maintained and extended. It also draws attention to the ways in which advertising and marketing work in society, and advances the understanding of the development of consumer culture in Australia. Design/methodology/approach The paper uses textual analysis of letters from readers and editorial content published in the magazine over a 25-year period, supplemented by material from newspapers and memoirs. Findings The paper reveals how a women’s magazine marshalled the loneliness of Australian women, especially rural Australian women, to attach them to the magazine and its advertisers. Over 25 years, the magazine editors built a reservoir of trust between readers and the magazine. When the economy turned, this reservoir could be drawn upon to maintain reader attachment and maximise sales. Research limitations/implications This paper examines the use of emotion in just one magazine. A comparative study would be beneficial to see whether this exploitation of emotion was widespread. Practical implications The paper suggests the importance of emotion as a tool for attaching consumers to brands and for maintaining that attachment through financial difficulties. Originality/value This paper supports the turn to the study of emotion in history and, specifically, in the development of consumer culture.

Abstract:
Abstract In the early to mid-twentieth-century United States, prenatal care helped reshape pregnancy by extending medical directives into the everyday life of pregnant women. What began with minimal strategies for a few women at high risk grew into a “lifestyle” for all expecting babies. Maternity manuals helped popularize this process. Studying revisions of a widely circulated and publicly funded manual, Prenatal Care, from the U.S. Children’s Bureau between 1913 and 1983, shows that prenatal-care standards offered women healthy pregnancies on condition that they abandon older ways of understanding pregnancy and become maternity patients. Prenatal Care taught women to take positive steps to enhance outcomes, but a woman’s active role in her own pregnancy was complicated by the fact that the guides made obedience to her doctor her primary responsibility.

Abstract:
Abstract Essential thrombocythaemia (ET) is a rare (only 20% are diagnosed at child-bearing age), acquired clonal stem cell disorder. Pregnancy in patients with ET is associated with an increase in foetal (spontaneous abortion, stillbirth, intrauterine growth retardation) and maternal complications (thrombosis, hemorrhage, preeclampsia). Although Interferon alfa-2a (INF) therapy in ET patients has been associated with improved pregnancy outcomes, data regarding pegylated-interferon alfa-2a (PEG-INF) in pregnant ET patients is not available and its use is currently not recommended. PEG-INF has an increased half-life in comparison with INF, requiring less frequent injections, is associated with a better tolerance profile and is increasingly used outside of pregnancy. For those reasons, it is an interesting alternative for pregnant ET patients. This observational study is the first one focussing on use of PEG-INF during pregnancy. We included 7 pregnancies in 6 women with a diagnosis of ET treated with PEG-INF. Patients were identified through physician willingness to participate. In all pregnancies, PEG-INF was started before conception to control the platelet count. A specific questionnaire for data collection was sent to physicians. This study was performed in accordance with the Helsinki Declaration. Median age and platelet count at ET diagnosis were 22 years (range: 12 - 34 years) and 1647 x109/L (791 - 3265 x109/L), respectively. Median age at the beginning of pregnancy was 25 years (21 - 39 years). 5 women (83 %) had a prior documented history of 8 pregnancies with 2 (25 %) live births, 5 (63 %) miscarriages and 1 (13%) termination. On the 5 previous miscarriages, all women were on low-dose aspirin (AAS), 2 on low molecular weight heparin (LMWH) and 1 on INF. The rationale to introduce cytoreductive treatment was high-risk ET in 5 (83%) woman (4 with platelet count >1500x109/L at diagnosis, 1 with previous sagittal sinus thrombosis) and complications in previous pregnancy in 1 (17%) women (numbness of right face and arm). In addition to PEG-INF, all woman received AAS and 4 (66 %) LMWH (3 (50 %) had prophylactic dose and 1 (17 %) had therapeutic dose for previous sagittal sinus thrombosis). Median platelet count at conception was 520 x109/L (354 - 676 x109/L), 434 x109/L (254-570 x109/L) during the first trimester, 435 x109/L (225-469 x109/L) during the second trimester and 342 x109/L (183-428 x109/L) during the third trimester. 4 woman experienced PEG-INF grade 1 adverse events (AEs) (2 reported hair loss, 1 had transient nausea, anorexia and abdominal pain, 1 had skin reaction, 1 had headaches). Neither grades 3-4 AEs nor drug discontinuation was reported. On the 7 pregnancies, 6 (86 %) live birth and 1 (14 %) miscarriage (at 7 weeks, platelet count of 492 x109/L) were reported. Median time of gestation at delivery was 39 weeks (range: 38+3-40+6 weeks) and median birthweight was 3.1 Kg (range: 2.8-4.1 kg). Delivery was vaginal for 7 (83%) and by caesarean for 1 (17%), with induction for 1 (17 %). Neither major bleeding nor thrombosis was reported during pregnancy, delivery or post-partum. There were no stillbirths nor infant malformations at birth. Patient's characteristics are summarised in the Table. Outcomes of pregnancies for these 6 woman were significantly better when treated with PEG-INF during pregnancy with more live births (6 with PEG-INF, 2 without) (p<0.05). In conclusion, PEG-INF improves outcomes of pregnancy in ET woman with significantly more live birth. Moreover it is efficient to control platelet count, with only few side effects and no infant complication reported. We report for the first time that PEG-INF seems a safe and interesting alternative treatment of ET in pregnancy.

Abstract:
A large literature examines men's unemployment and their wives' labor-market participation. In response to her husband's unemployment, a woman may adjust her labor supplied to household production as well as to the market. This article tests for this effect and measures its impact using the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics Cost of Living survey of 1917–1919. Households altered both household-production decisions and the wife's labor supplied to the market in response to the husband's unemployment. But the household-production-response effect was smaller than the added-worker effect, in terms of women's labor hours and household consumption.

Abstract:
This essay examines the ways in which women lawyers of two generation–the pioneer generation of the 1880s and the “new woman” generation of the 1910s–confronted the dilemma of marriage and career. Members of the Equity Club in the 1880s revealed three distinct sets of attitudes toward balancing marriage and career: the separatist approach that a professional woman must remain single; the Victorian attitude that a married woman must sacrifice her career; and the integrated approach that a woman could have both marriage and career. Women lawyers surveyed by the Bureau of Vocational Information in 1920 revealed that the “new woman” generation of women lawyers lived in an era of transition. While they shared the same separatist, Victorian, and integrated views toward marriage and law practice as did women lawyers in the 1880s, they also embraced the new values of the early 20th century which shaped both the contours of the legal profession and the parameters of women's lives. Set within the context of the new values of the era, the separatist, Victorian, and integrated approaches to resolving the dilemma of marriage and career, which were originally formulated by women lawyers in the late 19th century, assumed new meanings for women lawyers in the early 20th century.

Abstract:
We present a retrospective study of prostitutes’ homicide in the Milanese area over a 26-year period (1993–2018), and compare the results with general women’s homicides: 294 women were killed of whom 71 were prostitutes. In the general population, the type-victim is an Italian woman aged between 31 and 40 years suffering from no particular pathologies or drug dependence. Prostitutes are 10 years younger, mostly Italian, suffering from pathologies probably related to their activities. Prostitutes remain at high risk of violence, due to gaps in the crime prevention system.

Abstract:
Indiana University-Purdue University Indianapolis (IUPUI)
This thesis examines the motivations of the Woman’s Council of National Defense. It will examine how women in Indiana and Illinois organized their state and local councils of defense as they embraced home-front mobilization efforts. It will also show that Hoosier women, like women across the United States, became involved in World War One home-front mobilization, in part, to prove their responsibility to the government in order to make an irrefutable claim for suffrage. As a result of extensive home-front mobilization efforts by women, the government was able to fulfill its own agenda of creating a comprehensive record of its citizens, thus guaranteeing a roster of citizens eligible for future wartime mobilization. By examining the Child Welfare Committee and the Children’s Year in a broad view, this thesis supports the assertions of historians like Robert G. Barrows, William J. Breen, and Lynn Dumenil, who have shown how Progressive-minded women advanced Progressive reforms by embracing the war effort and using it to their own advantage.

In this chapter, the author reconstructs the dead immigrant woman’s probable journey upon crossing the U.S. borderline, starting with a stash house that recently got busted for holding 115 immigrants hostage in Edinburg, Texas. Next, she visits a ranch where immigrants congregate after evading the Falfurrias checkpoint, the Guatemalan Consulate, an offshoot of the Minuteman Project called the Texas Border Volunteers, and the funeral home that received so many of Brooks County’s corpses in 2012, they had to buy another freezer to store them all. Her investigation concludes at Sacred Heart Burial Park in Falfurrias, where she tries in vain to find a trace of the woman in the woods.

Abstract:
This chapter discusses Nakagami's representation of old women or oba from Kumano. To articulate the significance of the oba in Nakagami's narratives, it first investigates Nakagami's reading of the work of well-known woman author Enchi Fumiko to provide insights into his view of the tradition of the “old woman” (omina/ōna) as a storyteller of monogatari. Based on this discussion, the chapter examines Nakagami's depiction in Sen'nen no yuraku (1982) of the aged roji woman, Oryū no oba, as a Burakumin omina. Furthermore, it discusses how Nakagami presents Oryū no oba's silenced voice. Oryū no oba has a special status that derives from her role as omina who passes down monogatari to the younger generation in the community. In contrast, the chapter considers Yuki and Moyo, two aged outcaste women who feature in the Akiyuki trilogy, as oba who can never assume the voice of community storyteller. Thus, this chapter investigates how Nakagami depicts the (im)possibility of these sexed women's voices speaking to or being heard by the community while also demonstrating how the writer presents an alternative representation of their voiceless voices.

Abstract:
Maganda Vilindo, a primary eyewitness of the altercation, testifies about the fight he saw between a white man and a white woman. Once he saw the people fighting, he moved around the hill to get a better look. He saw the man using a black tool to hit the woman on the head. Vilindo called out for others to come, and when Padre Masunzu appeared, Vilindo told him to get the police. Georgiadis attacks his testimony, pointing out inconsistencies with his prior statements made at the PI. During cross-examination, the translation from Sukuma might be incorrect, and a new interpreter is sworn in in an effort to clarify matters. The change does not seem to help, but it does demonstrate the difficulty of obtaining accurate testimony when translations must pass from Sukuma to Swahili to English and back again.
