English 18th-Century Women Poets and Maciej Kazimierz Sarbiewski: Adaptation, Paraphrase, Translation
2020
The paper deals with six poems of three 18th-century English women poets—Lady Mary Chudleigh, Mary Masters, and Anne Steele “Theodosia”—inspired by the works of the greatest Polish Neo-Latin poet Maciej Kazimierz Sarbiewski. The aim of the study is to present the three authors, their biographies and literary oeuvres, and to attempt an analysis of the poems in question within this context. The biographies, social position—Chudleigh was the wife a baronet, the two others belonged to the middle class—and education of the three authoresses differ and yet they all shared the limitations resulting from the fact that they were women in 18th-century England, and were therefore denied access to academic education. The analysis of the texts and biographies has proven that it is highly improbable that either of the three women poets could translate the poems from Latin originals. All of their translations are based on earlier renditions; in the case of Chudleigh it is possible to identify the source text, that is the translation by John Norris. Inasmuch as it can be ascertained from the available biographical and critical sources and the results, the attitudes of the three poetesses towards their work varied. Only Masters acknowledged the source material in her publications. Although the current concepts of translation are different, her two poems: On a Fountain. Casimir, Lib. Epod. Ode 2 and Casimir, Lib. I. Ode 2—qualify as translations by the standards of her times. They are analysed here in detail. Neither Chudleigh nor Steele mentioned Sarbiewski in their publications. Their decision can be justified by the fact that their poems, even if clearly (though most likely indirectly) inspired by his lyrics, must be classified as free adaptations or even original poetry influenced by Sarbiewski or earlier translations and adaptations of his works.

How Hillary wears the trousers Julie Earle-Levine looks at how the woman who would be America's first female president is trying to dress for success
2007
\"Frankly, focusing on women's bodies instead of their ideas is insulting,\" she wrote, and not long after she could be found on ABC's The View commiserating with Barbara Walters about the fact that female candidates were unfairly analysed over their clothes. Truth is, however, she's going to have to get used to it. So says Edith Mayo, curator emeritus at the National Museum of American History and designer of the current Smithsonian First Ladies exhibition, which aims to place these women in the context of their husbands' administrations. As Mayo can attest, American First Ladies' wardrobes have always been an obsession. One can only presume that's even more true for first female presidential candidates. So Clinton is being scrutinised for her fashion sense - or lack of it. She wears unflattering trouser suits, floral-print blazers and uninspiring heels, her critics say; she looks \"boring\" and \"cold\". \"People have realised that fashion is not [Hillary Clinton]'s main interest,\" says Valerie Steele, director and curator of The Museum at the Fashion Institute of Technology in New York. \"She just doesn't care.\"

Steele tries to patch up his ties to president
2006
On Iraq, [Michael S. Steele] has said he advocates accelerating bringing U.S. troops home. He also has argued -- in line with Bush -- that the United States should not pull out until Iraqis can police and govern themselves. In the interview published this week, however, Steele stopped just short of calling the war a failure. In turn, Bush raised $500,000 for the lieutenant governor last fall. Vice President Dick Cheney, former President George H.W. Bush and former first lady Barbara Bush, former White House chief of staff Andrew Card and presidential adviser Karl Rove are among the Bush loyalists who have headlined fundraisers for Steele's campaign. \"The Steele-Bush relationship is a fatal attraction, and Michael Steele knows it,\" said Maryland Democratic Party Chairman Terry Lierman. \"Steele can't say no to Bush when it comes to Iraq, stem cells or millions in campaign cash. ... Steele should know that if there's one thing that Marylanders like less than Bush, it's politicians like Michael Steele who try to have it both ways.\"
