Hardcover. Zustand: Sehr gut. 1. Auflage. Z : 28 x 27,2 cm, Hardcover, 144 pages, 120 color illustrations - Born 1958, Patrick Weidmann lives and works in Geneva. His work today consists mainly of photography and writing. Back in the early 1980s he associated photographs with objects, but over the past 20 years his work has come to be centered on representing them. While his early "combined photographs," as they could be called, included objects of a fetishistic nature (such as chains, for instance), he later chose depicted objects to incarnate fetishism. He brings this dimension of the commodities that surround us to the fore in images depicting a Jacuzzi, an airplane seat, an electronic circuit, a soft toy, a cross-section of a car, or some random techno-style setup, framing the image so as to accentuate its fragmentary nature, itself characteristic of photography. In addition, as Joerg Bader puts it, "his handling of light worthy of a marketing handbook, with cascading reflections and a clear preference for reflective surfaces is a significant tool in persuading us that we live in the realm of commodities, in a world that is so mercenary that it now fills the entire life of everyone on the planet ".

First edition of this collection of essays. Octavo, original cloth. Association copy, inscribed by the editor on the title page, "For Justice Ginsburg - with deepest respect, admiration, & gratitude, In sisterhood, Elizabeth Ann Bartlett." From the library of Ruth Bader Ginsburg. Arguably the most famous Supreme Court Justice in American history, lawyer and jurist Ruth Bader Ginsburg served as an associate justice of the Supreme Court of the United States from 1993 until her death in 2020. Popularly dubbed âthe Notorious R.B.G.â (a play on the name of famed 90s rapper The Notorious B.I.G.), Ginsburg was responsible for some of the most eventful legal decisions of the past half-century. When she was nominated by President Bill Clinton in 1993 to replace retiring justice Byron White, Ginsburg became both the first Jewish woman and the second woman to serve on the Court, after Sandra Day OâConnor. Ginsburg was born and grew up in Brooklyn, New York, earned degrees at Cornell University and Columbia Law School, and began her career as a professor at Rutgers Law School and Columbia Law School, teaching civil procedure as one of the few women in her field. She spent much of her early legal career as an advocate for gender equality and womenâs rights, winning many arguments before the Supreme Court and, in 1972, co-founded the Womenâs Rights Project at the American Civil Liberties Union which participated in more than 300 gender discrimination cases by 1974. In 1980, President Jimmy Carter appointed her to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit, where she served until her appointment to the Supreme Court in 1993. During her tenure as associate justice of the Supreme Court, Ginsburg received increasing attention for her fiery and passionate dissents that reflected liberal views of the law. She authored several important majority opinions related to gender discrimination, voting rights, and affirmative action in cases such as United States v. Virginia (1996) which struck down the Virginia Military Instituteâs male-only admissions policy as violating the Equal Protection Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment, Olmstead v. L.C. (1999) in which the Court ruled that mental illness is a form of disability covered under the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990, and Friends of the Earth, Inc. v. Laidlaw Environmental Services, Inc. (2000) in which the Court held that residents have standing to seek fines for an industrial polluter that affected their interests and that is able to continue doing so. In 2002, Ginsburg was inducted into the National Womenâs Hall of Fame, she was named one of Forbesâ 100 Most Powerful Women in 2009, and one of Time magazineâs 100 most influential people in 2015. Her powerful and fiery dissent in the 2013 Supreme Court case Shelby County v. Holder, in which she argued against the majorityâs decision to strike down key provisions of the Voting Rights Act of 1965, emphasizing the continued need for its protections against racial discrimination in voting, earned her the nickname âThe Notorious R.B.G.â â" a moniker she came to embrace which has since become a celebration of her important legal career and legacy. Widely regarded as one of the most remarkable women in American history, Ginsburg redefined and transcended the traditional role of Supreme Court justice, ascending to the status of intergenerational feminist pop culture icon. Near fine in a good dust jacket. Housed in a custom half morocco clamshell box by the Harcourt Bindery. "All history attests that man has subjected woman to his will, used her as a means to promote his selfish gratification. but never has he desired to elevate her to that rank she was created to fill" (Sarah Grimkà , 1838). Sarah Grimkà and her sister Angelina were pioneering figures in the nineteenth-century abolitionist and women's rights movements. Grimkà 's "Letters on the Equality of the Sexes," published more than 150 years ago, was the first full-length philosophical statement on "the woman question" written by an American woman. Here the letters are reproduced in a new edition, along with five previously unpublished essays written by Grimkà .
