Woburn High School: History, Pride, Tradition (Landmarks)
by Susan Ann Thifault Theresa M. ChristersonWoburn High School has instilled the importance of education in generations of students for over 160 years. The school opened its doors in 1852 with thirty-four students in a leased room at the Knight Building on Main Street. Increasing enrollment and curriculum requirements necessitated the building of a larger school on Main Street in 1854 and again in 1906 at the Dow Farm property on Montvale Avenue. Woburn's reputation as a leading leather manufacturer during the Civil War inspired the Tanner nickname, bull mascot and school motto: "Tanner Pride." With the leadership of thirteen principals throughout its history, over thirty-two thousand students have graduated from this school. Today, more than half the faculty are returning alumni, and generations of Woburn families continue to send their children to this school. Join author Susan Thifault as she explores a history of pride and tradition at Woburn High School.
Woe Is I: The Grammarphobe's Guide to Better English in Plain English (Fourth Edition)
by Patricia T. O'ConnerA revised and updated edition of the iconic grammar guide for the 21st century.In this expanded and updated edition of Woe Is I, former editor at The New York Times Book Review Patricia T. O'Conner unties the knottiest grammar tangles with the same insight and humor that have charmed and enlightened readers of previous editions for years. With fresh insights into the rights, wrongs, and maybes of English grammar and usage, O'Conner offers in Woe Is I down-to-earth explanations and plain-English solutions to the language mysteries that bedevil all of us."Books about English grammar and usage are... never content with the status quo," O'Conner writes. "That's because English is not a stay-put language. It's always changing--expanding here, shrinking there, trying on new things, casting off old ones... Time doesn't stand still and neither does language."In this fourth edition, O'Conner explains how the usage of an array of words has evolved. For example, the once-shunned "they," "them," and "their" for an unknown somebody is now acceptable. And the battle between "who" and "whom" has just about been won, O'Conner says (hint: It wasn't by "whom"). Then there's the use of "taller than me" in simple comparisons, instead of the ramrod-stiff "taller than I." "May" and "might," "use to" and "used to," abbreviations that use periods and those that don't, and the evolving definition of "unique" are all explained here by O'Conner. The result is an engaging, up-to-date and jargon-free guide to every reader's questions about grammar, style, and usage for the 21st century.
Wofford College (Campus History)
by Dr Phillip StoneFounded with a bequest of $100,000 from the Reverend Benjamin Wofford, Wofford College opened in Spartanburg, South Carolina, in August 1854. More than 150 years later, the college remains on its original campus, a national arboretum. Five of its earliest six buildings are in daily use. Throughout its history, Wofford has maintained its connection with South Carolina Methodism and has benefited from the support of its alumni. Many of its 15,500 living alumni maintain strong ties to the college and to each other. The awarding of a chapter of Phi Beta Kappa in 1941 recognized the college's dedication to the liberal arts and its commitment to academic excellence. Though the student body has grown from around 500 before World War II to nearly 1,500 in 2010, Wofford retains its commitment to developing relationships between students and professors.
Wohnen als sozialräumliche Praxis: Zur subjektiven Bedeutung von Gemeinschaftlichem Wohnen im Kontext sozialen Wandels (Sozialraumforschung und Sozialraumarbeit #21)
by Sylvia BeckDas Thema Wohnen prägt aktuell die Debatten in Politik und Stadtplanung. Seine Bedeutung im alltäglichen Lebenszusammenhang bleibt dabei jedoch weitgehend undiskutiert und Soziale Arbeit als Profession erstaunlich unbeteiligt. Vermeintlich losgelöst davon erfahren Gemeinschaftliche Wohnprojekte wachsenden Zuspruch, werden angesichts gesellschaftlicher Veränderungen positiv konnotiert und mittlerweile auch politisch protegiert. Wie und worüber Menschen hier Zugewinne für ihre Lebensgestaltungen erfahren, bleibt wissenschaftlich bislang unbeleuchtet. Das Buch setzt an dieser Lücke an und arbeitet Bewältigungs- und Gestaltungsleistungen der Bewohner*innen angesichts spätmoderner Entgrenzungen, Selbstzuständigkeiten und Verunsicherungen heraus. Als subjektorientierte Wohnforschung verfolgt sie in einem praxeologischen und sozialräumlichen Grundverständnis von Wohnen eine biographische Perspektive. In den Blick genommen wird Alltagshandeln im Wohnen unter den sozialen, räumlichen und strukturellen Gegebenheiten der Wohnprojekte. Relevant zeigen sich hierbei neben einer Sozialen Wohnraumversorgung und Gewinnen einer kollektiven Alltagsgestaltung auch ermöglichte Aneignungsprozesse, die u.a. Partizipationsinteressen stärken können

Woman, Captain, Rebel: The Extraordinary True Story of a Daring Icelandic Sea Captain
by Margaret WillsonA daring and magnificent historical narrative nonfiction account of Iceland's most famous female sea captain who constantly fought for women's rights and equality—and who also solved one of the country's most notorious robberies.Every day was a fight for survival, equality, and justice for Iceland's most renowned female fishing captain of the 19th century.History would have us believe the sea has always been a male realm, the idea of female captains almost unthinkable. But there is one exception, so notable she defies any expectation.This is her remarkable story.Captain Thurídur, born in Iceland in 1777, lived a life that was both controversial and unconventional. Her first time fishing, on the open unprotected rowboats of her time, was at age 11. Soon after, she audaciously began wearing trousers. She later became an acclaimed fishing captain brilliant at weather-reading and seacraft and consistently brought in the largest catches. In the Arctic seas where drownings occurred with terrifying regularity, she never lost a single crewmember. Renowned for her acute powers of observation, she also solved a notorious crime. In this extremely unequal society, she used the courts to fight for justice for the abused, and in her sixties, embarked on perilous journeys over trackless mountains.Weaving together fastidious research and captivating prose, Margaret Willson reveals Captain Thurídur's fascinating story, her extraordinary courage, intelligence, and personal integrity.Through adventure, oppression, joy, betrayal, and grief, Captain Thurídur speaks a universal voice. Here is a woman so ahead of her times she remains modern and inspirational today. Her story can now finally be told.Praise for Woman, Captain, Rebel:"Meticulously researched and evocatively written, Woman, Captain, Rebel provides not only a captivating insight into 19th-century Iceland, but also introduces readers to the inspirational, real-life fishing captain Thurídur, a tough and fiercely independent woman who deserves to be a role model of determination and perseverance for us all." —Eliza Reid, internationally bestselling author of Secrets of the Sprakkar"A crime has been committed in 19th century Iceland and in steps a mysterious seawoman moonlighting as a detective, dressed in male clothes. Margaret Willson unravels this legendary casework of Captain Thurídur, down to the finest detail, with a brilliant portrait of old Iceland by the sea." —Egill Bjarnason, author of How Iceland Changed the World"Reading about this remarkable woman's journey will challenge your ideas about history and change yours too." —Major General Mari K. Eder, author of The Girls Who Stepped Out of Line"All credit to Margaret Willson for excavating the story of Thurídur Einarsdóttir in a century which can at long last appreciate this feisty and resilient Icelandic seafarer. The meticulous research is worn so lightly that it reads like a saga." —Sally Magnusson, author and broadcaster"A beautiful story of one woman's perseverance against tragedy, hardship, and the open seas." —Katharine Gregorio, author of The Double Life of Katharine Clark"With a clear, compelling narrative voice, Willson illuminates the life of an extraordinary woman and brings rural Iceland to life for her readers." —Shelf Awareness

The Woman Who Says No: Françoise Gilot on Her Life With and Without Picasso - Rebel, Muse, Artist
by Malte HerwigPablo Picasso called Françoise Gilot "The Woman Who Says No." Tiny, talented, and feisty, and an accomplished artist in her own right, Gilot left Picasso after a ten-year relationship, the only woman to escape his intense attentions unscathed. From 2012 to 2014, German journalist and author Malte Herwig dropped by her ateliers in Paris and New York to chat with her about life, love, and art. She shared trenchant observations, her sharp sense of humor, and over ninety years of experience, much of it in the company of men who changed the world: Picasso, Matisse, and her second husband, the famous virologist Jonas Salk, developer of the polio vaccine. Never one to stand in the shadows, Gilot engaged with ground-breaking artists and scientists on her own terms, creating from these vital interactions an artistic style all her own, translated into an enormous collection of paintings and drawings held by private collectors and public museums around the world. In her early nineties, she generously shared her hospitality and wisdom with Herwig, who started out as an interviewer but found himself drawn into the role of pupil as Gilot, whom he called "a philosopher of joy," shared with him different ways of seeing the world.
Womanist Midrash: A Reintroduction To The Women Of The Torah And The Throne
by Wilda C. GafneyWomanist Midrash is an in-depth and creative exploration of the well- and lesser-known women of the Hebrew Scriptures.

Gafney employs a solid understanding of womanist and feminist approaches to biblical interpretation and the sociohistorical culture of the ancient Near East. This unique and imaginative work is grounded in serious scholarship and will expand conversations about feminist and womanist biblical interpretation.
