    Across an Untried Sea

    Across an Untried Sea

    Engels. Halflinnen met omslag, in zeer goede staat. 

    From the much acclaimed author of "Dared and Done: The Marriage of Elizabeth Barrett and Robert Browning, a new book that retrieves the lives of Victorian women--writers, actresses, poets, journalists, sculptors, and social reformers--celebrated in their day but forgotten in ours.
    Julia Markus focuses in particular on the American Charlotte Cushman, the most famous English-speaking actress of her day, and on the Scottish Jane Welsh Carlyle, a brilliant London hostess who gave up private ambition to become the wife of her friend Thomas Carlyle.
    Charlotte Cushman became an international star on the New York and London stage, and her Romeo and Hamlet were sensations. An independent woman with shrewd business sense who made her own fortune and supported her entire family, she dressed like a man from the waist up and had a succession of female lovers, each one of whom she planned to live with for life, each of whom she 'married.'
    Jane Welsh Carlyle, literary hostess, unparalleled letter writer and chronicler of her times--who, after a passionate youthful love affair, resolved to marry genius or not at all--became the wife of the revered and lionized philosopher Thomas Carlyle, a difficult, demanding man with whom she had a sexless marriage.
    Interweaving the worlds of Charlotte Cushman and Jane Carlyle--the worlds of expatriate Rome, literary London, New York, and St. Louis--Markus gathers together a number of interrelated and renowned women who were relegated in the public eye to the position of Virgin Queen (no matter how much married) or Old Maid, but who were, in fact, privately leading vibrant, independent, sexual lives. Among them: Matilda Hays, translator of George Sand; Harriet Hosmer, who resolved to become the world's first professional woman sculptor; and Emma Stebbins, whom Cushman 'married' and who created the Bethesda Fountain in New York's Central Park. Here, too, are the people who sought the friendship of Cushman and Carlyle, including Ralph Waldo Emerson, Horace Mann, Elizabeth Peabody, President Lincoln's Secretary of State William H. Seward, Geraldine Jewsbury, and Rosa Bonheur.
    Making use of letters, diaries, newspaper accounts, and journals of the day, many of them overlooked and unpublished, Julia Markus rediscovers lives forgotten in the shadows of convention and shows how these remarkable women--seemingly separated by nationality, class, and sexual inclination--met, formed alliances, and influenced one another, forging changes in themselves and in their time.

    Leadership Agility....

    Leadership Agility. Developing Your Repertoire of Leadership Styles

    De Engelse uitgave. Paperback, in zeer goede staat. Naam op titelpagina. 

    Leadership is about influencing others to move in a certain direction and there are many ways of achieving this influence. Each of these leadership styles has its inherent qualities and pitfalls, and will be more suited to specific people and different circumstances. The more leaders understand their preferred leadership styles and are able to flexibly switch to the most suitable style given the situation, the more effective they will be. This book maps out ten sets of opposite leadership styles, giving readers the possibility to understand the strengths and weaknesses of both sides, and to identify their own current preference.

    The ten leadership style dimensions cover the full range of leadership roles, from the leader as coach (interpersonal leadership), to the leader as organizer (organizational leadership), as strategist (strategic leadership), as sense-maker (leadership and mission) and as role model (leadership and self).

    Readers are invited to draw up their own leadership development plans, which is supported by an interactive App. Readers are also challenged to reflect on how they would approach a number of cases, after which they can go to an interactive web-forum to read how others have responded and engage in a discussion with them. Leadership Agility is a useful tool for practitioners in the corporate world as well as business students and emerging leaders.

    BOOM Hulpboek Minder...

    BOOM Hulpboek Minder drinken (in samenwerking met TELEAC)

    Mooi exemplaar, paperback, als nieuw.

    Van gewoonte naar verslaving Er is in een Nederland een grote groep drinkers die niet verslaafd is aan alcohol, maar die wel meer drinkt dan goed voor hen is. Drinken is sluipenderwijs een gewoonte geworden. Te vaak te veel drinken ontstaat geleidelijk en gemakkelijk en is toch niet gezond. Dat weten de meeste mensen ook wel en zij kunnen dat uitstekend zelf veranderen. Toch is het prettig als je daarbij geholpen wordt, want veranderen van drinkgewoonten is iets wat aandacht behoeft; het gaat niet vanzelf. Zelf aan de slag Als u een alcoholprobleem in een vroeg stadium herkent, kunt u er zelf veel aan doen. Het Boom Hulpboek Minder drinken kan u daarbij helpen. In vijf weken krijgt u inzicht in uw eigen alcoholgebruik en wat voor u verantwoord drinken is. U leert omgaan met verleidingen, moeilijke momenten en uitglijders. De in het boek beschreven methode is gebaseerd op technieken uit de cognitieve gedragstherapie en heeft al veel drinkers geholpen weer verantwoord met alcohol om te gaan. Een complete aanpak Het hulpboek Minder drinken hoort bij de cursus 'Minder drinken? Doe-het-zelf!' van Teleac en de website minderdrinken.nl van het Trimbos-instituut.
