Download or read book Exodus and Liberation written by John Coffey and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2013-11-18 with total page 321 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Biblical texts have been one of the most potent sources in the Western political imagination. Presenting a new account of how the Bible's liberationist texts were deployed and disputed at critical junctures in British and American history from the Reformation to the Civil Rights Movement, Exodus and Liberation argues that the Exodus story carried one of the big ideas in Anglophone political culture - the idea of deliverance. In the sixteenth century, Calvinist rebels and reformers identified with Old Testament Israel as they sought liberation from "popish bondage." The Puritan Revolution of 1640-60 was depicted as England's Exodus, provoking a fierce contest for control of the biblical story. In the Glorious Revolution and the American Revolution, Protestants turned the Exodus narrative and deliverance language against "political slavery." Revolutionary rhetoric exposed the contradiction between libertarian ideology and black chattel slavery. Abolitionists forged a theology of liberation, articulated in resonant biblical mottoes: "Let my People Go!", "Proclaim Liberty throughout the Land," "Break every Yoke", "Release the Oppressed." African Americans cast themselves as the Children of Israel, forging a distinct identity and throwing into question the scriptural construction of the United States. Black migrations to the North were imagined as journeys to the Promised Land, and black Exodus politics climaxed in the speeches of Martin Luther King Jr. Among American statesmen, foreign policy rhetoric continued to yoke Providence to Liberation. By the twenty-first century, both George W. Bush and Barack Obama laid claim to the Exodus story. Using sermons, speeches, pamphlets, song, verse, and iconography, Exodus and Liberation documents the extraordinary reach of these biblical traditions, demonstrating how the political reading of scriptural texts powerfully informed Protestant debates over slavery and liberty.
Download or read book The Routledge Companion to Literature and Feminism written by Rachel Carroll and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2023-12-01 with total page 703 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Routledge Companion to Literature and Feminism brings unique literary, critical, and historical perspectives to the relationship between women’s writing and women’s rights in British contexts from the late eighteenth century to the present. Thematically organised around five central concepts—Rights, Networks, Bodies, Production, and Activism—the Companion tracks vital questions and debates, offering fresh perspectives on changing priorities and enduring continuities in relation to women’s ongoing struggle for liberty and equality. This groundbreaking collection brings into focus the historical and cultural conditions which have shaped the formation of British literary feminisms, including the legacies of slavery, colonialism, and Empire. From the political novel of the 1790s to early twentieth-century suffrage theatre and contemporary ecofeminism, and from the mid-Victorian antislavery movement to anti-fascist activism in the 1930s and working-class women’s writing groups in the 1980s, this book testifies to the diverse and dynamic character of the relationship between literature and feminism. Featuring contributions from leading feminist scholars, the Companion offers new insights into the crucial role played by women’s literary production in the evolving history of women’s rights discourses, feminist activism, and movements for gender equality. It will appeal to students and scholars in the fields of women’s writing, British literature, cultural history, and gender and feminist studies.

Download or read book Our Woman Workers written by Mrs. E. R. Hanson and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-12-18 with total page 550 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Our Woman Workers: Biographical Sketches of Women Eminent in the Universalist Church for Literary, Philanthropic and Christian Work Then followed the thought. How rapidly their names are growing dim? How soon it will be difficult, if not impossible. To rescue the data of many of their lives from oblivion. Even in the next generation much that is now obtainable will have gone beyond recovery. Would that some pen might be employed in the delightful task of recording their life-histories. And giving to others who love the church they loved. At least a brief compendium of their lives. With this thought came the im pulse to begin the pleasing work. And as my inquiries have extended the materials have increased. Until they became to me what I am sure they will prove to be even to those most familiar with the history of our church. A revelation. Causing mingled surprise and delight. In preparing this book I have greatly needed courage for the delicate task of writing the full truth of the loving and tender work of those who are living; to write it in such a way as not to fall below the credit due. Them. And in so doing not to bring blushes upon their kindly faces by seeming flattery. Indeed. I have tried to imagine them all as dead. That I might speak the truth with a clear con science. And I do not believe I have in any one instance overstated the estimate of those who knew her. I say this because I have found some who were uncon scious that they had done aught deserving of mention. My earnest wish has been not only to refresh the memories of Justice-loving people. And preserve a record of the Christian devotedness and mental abilities of our women. But to do. As nearly as possible. Exact justice. To their relative worth. I had intended to print my sketches chronologically. But found it impossible to keep up with the printers. And prepare the articles in chronological succession. And therefore the plan was soon abandoned. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
