The career and craft of a woman filmmaker in a male-dominated industry From the mid-1940s to the late 1950s, Jill Craigie wrote, produced, and directed the innovative films that stood at the center of her diverse career in British cinema, radio, television, and print journalism. Yvonne Tasker and Sadie Wearing analyze Craigie's oeuvre while delving into the filmmaker's use of the medium as the space for her distinctive feminist engagement with key cultural, social, and political questions.Tasker and Wearing reconsider Craigie's place and reputation in the history of British Cinema. Craigie created work that showed a strong critical voice and at the same time challenged contemporary modes of filmmaking with both documentary and drama. Tasker and Wearing examine her feminist and working-class influences and also emphasize the democratic impulse that drove Craigie to include her subjects' participation, and her commitment to representing them on screen. Throughout, Tasker and Wearing analyze Craigie's work against the backdrop of postwar concerns and preoccupations.Distinctive and nuanced, Jill Craigie reconsiders the career of a groundbreaking woman director.

At no point in recorded history has there been an absence of intense, and heated, discussion about the subject of how to conduct relations between women and men. This Handbook provides a comprehensive guide to these omnipresent issues and debates, mapping the present and future of thinking about feminist theory.
The chapters gathered here present the state of the art in scholarship in the field, covering:
Epistemology and marginality Literary, visual and cultural representations Sexuality Macro and microeconomics of gender Conflict and peace. The most important consensus in this volume is that a central organizing tenet of feminism is its willingness to examine the ways in which gender and relations between women and men have been (and are) organized. The authors bring a shared commitment to the critical appraisal of gender relations, as well as a recognition that to think ‘theoretically’ is not to detach concerns from lived experience but to extend the possibilities of understanding. With this focus on theory and theorizing about the world in which we live, this Handbook asks us, across all disciplines and situations, to abandon our taken-for-granted assumptions about the world and interrogate both the origin and the implications of our ideas about gender relations and feminism. It is an essential reference work for advanced students and academics not only of feminist theory, but of gender and sexuality across the humanities and social sciences.
