Elizabeth Catlett
A richly illustrated rediscovery of Elizabeth Catlett: printmaker, sculptor and tireless advocate for human rights Born in Washington, DC, Elizabeth Catlett (1915-2012) moved to Mexico in 1946. Still, her artwork always remained attuned to the Black American experience. Her expressive linocuts of sharecroppers, fieldworkers or, more symbolically, 'survivors' depicted the lived realities of Black men and women, while her prints of Harriet Tubman and Phyllis Wheatley constructed a new national history. Catlett's body of work shares both aesthetic and theoretical sensibilities with major regional movements and their figures: women sculptors and printmakers working in Europe, including Barbara Hepworth and K the Kollwitz; Black American artists operating in an overtly political vein including John Woodrow Wilson and Jacob Lawrence; and members of the modernist 'Mexican School,' including her partner, muralist Francisco Mora. In the late 1950s Catlett transitioned from printmaking to

Mary Och Maria
Mary Wollstonecraft har gått till historien med sitt välformulerade försvar av kvinnans rättigheter. Här möter vi samma författare, i samma ärende, men i två texter där hon utvecklar sitt manifest i skönlitterär form. Huvudpersonerna i de bägge kortromanerna delar förnamn med sin författare – kanske inte av en slump. I Mary skildras "en karaktär som skiljer sig från dem som vanligen porträtteras", nämligen "en kvinnosjäl som kan tänka", såsom Wollstonecraft själv skriver. Kvinnans utsatthet syftar på äktenskapets despotism, kvinnans stora olycka enligt författaren. Detta kom att bli det sista hon skrev och har kallats hennes mest radikala verk. Blygsamma till formatet men nydanande i sitt sätt att skildra kvinnors intellektuella utveckling – dessa två pärlor är en kritik av den stereotypa litterära hjältinnan och av de fördomar som framfött henne. De föreligger nu i svensk översättning av Erik Carlquist. En inledning har skrivits av Elisabeth Mansén.
