Penelope Anderson's original study changes our understanding both of the masculine Renaissance friendship tradition and of the private forms of women's friendship of the eighteenth century and after. ...It uncovers the latent threat of betrayal lurking within politicized classical and humanist friendship, showing its surprising resilience as a model for political obligation undone and remade. Incorporating authors from Cicero to Abraham Cowley and Margaret Cavendish to Mary Astell, the book focuses on two extraordinary women writers, the royalist Katherine Philips and the republican Lucy Hutchinson. And it explores the ways in which they appropriate the friendship tradition in order to address problems of conflicting allegiances in the English Civil Wars and Restoration. As Penelope Anderson suggests, their writings on friendship provide a new account of women's relation to public life, organized through textual exchange rather than bodily reproduction.

Many years back now, Keith befriended me with great kindness when I was a marketing research practitioner. Because the firm I worked for specialized in measuring, modeling, and managing customer ...satisfaction, I came across the CS/D&CB journal, and then found out about the conference. ...more than that, as a certain gravity seemed to be pulling me toward a calling in university teaching and research, Keith became one of my most trusted advisors. The advice, counsel, empathy, friendship, wisdom he shared with me has continued to produce dividends in my life across a span greater than two decades now.
In this paper, we introduce a new type of labeling of a graph G with p vertices and q edges called edge delta- graceful labeling, for any positive integer delta, as a bijective mapping f of the edge ...set E(G) into the set fdelta, 2delta, 3delta, ..., qdeltag such that the induced mapping f.sup.* : V(G) right arrow {0, delta, 2delta, 3delta, ..., qdelta - deltag, given by f.sup.*(u) = (summation.sub.uvmember ofE(G) f (uv)) mod (deltak), where k = max (p, q), is an injective function. We prove the existence of an edge delta- graceful labeling, for any positive integer delta, for some cycle-related graphs like the wheel graph, alternate triangular cycle, double wheel graph W.sub.n,n, the prism graph PI.sub.n, the prism of the wheel P(W.sub.n), the gear graph G.sub.n, the closed helm CH.sub.n, the butterfly graph B.sub.n, and the friendship Fr.sub.n.

Women in Victorian England wore jewelry made from each other’s hair and wrote poems celebrating decades of friendship. They pored over magazines that described the dangerous pleasures of corporal ...punishment. A few had sexual relationships with each other, exchanged rings and vows, willed each other property, and lived together in long-term partnerships described as marriages. But, as Sharon Marcus shows, these women were not seen as gender outlaws. Their desires were fanned by consumer culture, and their friendships and unions were accepted and even encouraged by family, society, and church. Far from being sexless angels defined only by male desires, Victorian women openly enjoyed looking at and even dominating other women. Their friendships helped realize the ideal of companionate love between men and women celebrated by novels, and their unions influenced politicians and social thinkers to reform marriage law. Through a close examination of literature, memoirs, letters, domestic magazines, and political debates, Marcus reveals how relationships between women were a crucial component of femininity. Deeply researched, powerfully argued, and filled with original readings of familiar and surprising sources, Between Women overturns everything we thought we knew about Victorian women and the history of marriage and family life. It offers a new paradigm for theorizing gender and sexuality--not just in the Victorian period, but in our own.
