The story and analysis of the Calling Blighty series of films made by the Combined Kinematograph Service in Burma and India between 1943 and 1946. These are remarkable and moving documents, a one-way Skype of their day, where men - and a very few women - sent spoken messages home to be shown to families and sweethearts in local cinemas. 42 illus.

  • Language and Gender in the Military
    Edith A. Disler

The study of language and gender has progressed from an eye-opening review of differences between the 'language' of women and men to observations that language served to preserve 'domination' of one sex over another and on to a cr...

Pareille tendance serait contre-nature et contredirait à coup sûr l’optimisme originaire selon lequel le Créateur, après la création de la femme, aux côtés de l’homme, vit que tout était très bon. Le débat contemporain sur l’identité humaine ou l’identité sexuelle est tellement provoca...
