Produktinformationen zu „Emily Hobhouse (ePub)“
A fresh, nuanced look at an extraordinary woman and her lifelong fight for justice. Defying the constraints of her gender and class, Emily Hobhouse travelled across continents and spoke out against oppression. A passionate pacifist and a feminist, she opposed both the 1899-1902 Anglo-Boer War and World War One, which led to accusations of treason. Despite saving thousands of lives in two wars, she died alone - an unsung hero in her own country. Elsabé Brits travelled in Emily Hobhouse's footsteps, retracing her inspirational, often astonishing story. In Canada the author discovered Hobhouse's handwritten notebooks, scrapbooks and letters in a trunk. With Emily Hobhouse: Beloved Traitor, she brings to life a colourful story of war, heroism and passion, spanning three continents.
Autoren-Porträt von Elsabé Brits
Elsabé Brits is an award-winning science journalist. Since 1999, she has worked at the daily newspaper Die Burger in Cape Town, following a six-year stint at a community newspaper in Polokwane. Currently she writes for Netwerk24.com and Media24's Afrikaans newspapers. In 2011, her first book, on bipolar disorder, was published by Tafelberg. While Elsabé specialises in science journalism, it was her passion for forgotten stories, along with her love of facts, that propelled her on the voyage of discovery that resulted in writing this book. Emily Hobhouse has since become an essential part of her life.
