Victor Hume Moody's artwork embodies a revival of classical painting techniques, merging traditional figure composition with the serene English landscape. Over his nearly 70-year career, he resisted contemporary trends, focusing instead on the rich heritage of Western art. Following his passing, his reputation has grown, highlighted by notable exhibitions such as "The Last Classicist" and "Counterpoint - Modern Realism." The recent catalog of his works, stemming from his daughter's estate, aims to further enhance the appreciation and understanding of Moody's artistic legacy.

This collection of essays is an interdisciplinary work bringing together an internationally acclaimed group of transgender writers. Informed by both academic and street experiences, it considers the practical issues faced in changing the world view of gender as well as the limitations of queer, feminism and post-modernism. In a wide-ranging set of contributions, it addresses our engendered places now and what we can aim for in the future. It evaluates the mechanisms we can use to galvanize both the micro theories of gender as a personal experience of oppression and the macro theories of gender as a site of social regulation. The collection aims to take identity politics and reclaim identity for the self.
