Objective: to know histories resilientes of frequentadoras women of the wheels of Terapia Comunitária Sistêmica
Integrativa (TC). Methods: To take care of to the considered objectives, we use the method of Verbal History. The
study it was developed with 7 collaborators of the TC wheels, in the community Park of the Sun. Results: When
analyzing the empirical material, we construct three thematic axles: the TC space of allotment and wakening of the
resilience, resources of imaginary in the process resiliente and Resilience: the force constructed with the life. The TC
emerged as a source of awaking of the resilience capacity. Conclusions: Histories assist to see that we are capable to
surpass the suffering with the exercise of the resilience, concept that can be significant for the redimensionamento of
the research in the field of the communitarian health, mental health and in the field of the nursing, contributing for
reflections on education, research and extension.

Women's history had its origins in the women's movement and in the new social history, and like other areas of social history, it has seen relatively few interchanges with world history as both have developed over the past twenty years. This article suggests some of the reasons for this lack of intersection; assesses recent scholarship that brings world history and the history of women, gender, and sexuality together; and suggests future directions.

"Bessie Scott, nearing the end of her first year at university in the spring of 1890, recorded in her diary: "Wore my gown for first time! It didn't seem at all strange to do so." Often deemed a cumbersome tradition by men, the cap and gown were dearly prized by women as an outward sign of their hard-won admission to the rank of undergraduates. For the first generations of university women, higher education was an exhilarating and transformative experience, but these opportunities would narrow in the decades that followed. In University Women Sara MacDonald explores the processes of integration and separation that marked women's contested entrance into higher education. Examining the period between 1870 and 1930, this book is the first to provide a comparative study of women at universities across Canada. MacDonald concludes that women's higher education cannot be seen as a progressive narrative, a triumphant story of trailblazers and firsts, of doors being thrown open and staying open. The early promise of equal education was not fulfilled in the longer term, as a backlash against the growing presence of women on campuses resulted in separate academic programs, closer moral regulation, and barriers that restricted their admission into the burgeoning fields of science, technology, engineering, and mathematics. The modernization of higher education ultimately marginalized women students, researchers, and faculty within the diversified universities of the twentieth century. University Women uncovers the systemic inequalities based on gender, race, and class that have shaped Canadian higher education. It is indispensable reading for those concerned with the underrepresentation of girls and women in STEM and current initiatives to address issues of access and equity within our academic institutions."--

From Boudicca to Ukraine, battlefields have always contained a surprising number of women. We may not know it, but the narrative of the battlefield as an exclusively male space has required active maintenance to preserve. Military history expert Sarah Percy sets the record straight, revealing the forgotten warriors who served on the battlefield: some fighting disguised as men, others mobilized in times of national survival, and many others serving essential non-combat functions on the front lines. As Percy reveals, the exclusion of women from positions of active combat only began a few hundred years ago: it's a brief blip in a much longer narrative of female inclusion. From ancient history through the medieval period, there were women who commanded troops themselves, who dressed as men to fight in wars around the world, and who provided significant logistical support on the battlefield. It was only in the late nineteenth century-as warfare became increasingly professionalized and nation-states began to formalize rules around combat-that women were placed firmly on the home front. The outbreak of World War I changed this policy again, as states found their resources pushed to the limit by the emergence of global, industrial warfare that required total social mobilization. By the end of the 20th century, women were once again on the battlefield around the world. Against a backdrop of sieges and desperate battles, rebellions and civil wars, a series of extraordinary women come alive on the page, determined not to be passive victims. Deeply researched and brilliantly told, Forgotten Warriors turns the notion of war as a men's game on its head, and restores women to their rightful place on the frontlines of history.

This book sets higfa standards for itself. Regrettably it fails to meet them: apart from a few displays of thorough and competent research, it is generally based on substandard scholarship.
