Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. A pioneer among Palestinian artists, Sophie Halaby was the first Arab woman to study art in Paris, subsequently living independently as a professional painter in Jerusalem throughout her life. She was born in 1906 in Kiev to a Russian mother and a Christian Arab father. Her family fled to Jerusalem in 1917 in the wake of the Russian Revolution. Her life was marked by violence and war, including the Arab Revolt from 1936 to 1939, the Nakba in 1948, and the Six-Day War in 1967. In response, Halaby drew a series of political cartoons criticizing British rule and Zionist goals; later in life, she followed the work of younger artists who supported the Palestine liberation movement. However, the political turmoil of her times is largely not depicted in her art.Instead, her work is a tribute to the enduring beauty of the landscape and flora of Jerusalem, often sketched in pen and ink or red and black chalk, and painted with egg tempera, oils, and watercolors. Schor's compelling biography shines new light on this little-known artist and enriches our understanding of modern Palestinian history.

Paperback. Condizione: New. Celebrates the tens of thousands of women who attended Hunter College from 1870-1964 and contributed massively to the city that educated them.Hunter College was established in 1870 as the Female Normal College and High School. Its purpose was to educate teachers for the children of New York, then the most populous city of the United States. Hunter was distinct from all other women's colleges because it was open to all the girls of the city who were able to pass an achievement test, and it provided free tuition for all. By 1920, it was the largest women's college in the world. Hunter students expected to work following graduation and counted on their studies to provide them with skills to attain jobs. While many became teachers, others were interested in a variety of occupations. The college provided them with vocational guidance. It also offered a variety of student clubs, theater and music groups, athletics, and social service opportunities. Student newspapers, literary publications, and the yearbook gave students writing and publishing experience. Among Hunter's notable graduates profiled here are Julia Richman, Pauli Murray, Gertrude Elion, Rosalyn Yalow, Pearl Primus, Bella Abzug, Ruby Dee, and Mildred Dresselhaus.…
