This book was released on 2005 with total page 878 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Desde finales de los 80 venimos asistiendo a una eclosión de trabajos sobre historia de las mujeres que han posibilitado construir un relato nuevo sobre nuestro pasado. En esta «Historia de las mujeres en España y América Latina» más de un centenar de historiadores han aunado esfuerzos para hablarnos de las mujeres, de sus vidas cotidianas, de sus trabajos, de sus formas de religiosidad, de su escritura y su pensamiento, de su participación en la vida social y política, así como de las representaciones culturales que históricamente definen lo que denominamos femenino, en paralelo y, a menudo, en contraposición con lo masculino. Esta historia de las mujeres abarca desde la prehistoria a nuestros días, siguiendo las periodizaciones a las que estamos habituados los historiadores, pero hemos evitado caer en las férreas barreras de los períodos, dando mayor relevancia a los problemas que desbordan las cronologías clásicas y los enfoques tradicionales. En definitiva, esta nueva historia se pregunta sobre el significado que determinados momentos o hechos históricos tuvieron en las vidas de las mujeres, cómo les afectaron y sobre todo cómo los vivieron.

Book Reassessing the Roles of Women as  Makers  of Medieval Art and Architecture

Download or read book Reassessing the Roles of Women as Makers of Medieval Art and Architecture written by and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2012-05-07 with total page 1184 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: These volumes propose a renewed way of framing the debate around the history of medieval art and architecture to highlight the multiple roles played by women. Today’s standard division of artist from patron is not seen in medieval inscriptions—on paintings, metalwork, embroideries, or buildings—where the most common verb is 'made' (fecit). At times this denotes the individual whose hands produced the work, but it can equally refer to the person whose donation made the undertaking possible. Here twenty-four scholars examine secular and religious art from across medieval Europe to demonstrate that a range of studies is of interest not just for a particular time and place but because, from this range, overall conclusions can be drawn for the question of medieval art history as a whole.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An international collection of ecumenical, gender-sensitive interpretations The latest volume in the Bible and Women series examines the relationship between women and the Bible's reception in the centuries of the High and Late Middle Ages in Europe. Contributors bring a variety of new insights to questions of how women of the Bible were treated in literary, mystical, and doctrinal texts as well as in art and music. Though the Bible was used to legitimize the subordination of women to men and to exclude them from power, during this period women produced works of theology and biblical interpretation. Contributors include Gemma Avenoza, Marina Benedetti, Dinora Corsi, Maria Laura Giordano, Elisabeth Gössmann, Maria Leticia Sánchez Hernández, Hildegund Keul, Linda Maria Koldau, Martina Kreidler-Kos, Rita Librandi, Gary Macy, Constant J.

Book Culture and Society in Medieval Galicia

Download or read book Culture and Society in Medieval Galicia written by and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2015-07-28 with total page 1121 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Culture and Society in Medieval Galicia, twenty-three international authors examine Galicia’s changing place in Iberia, Europe, and the Mediterranean and Atlantic worlds from late antiquity through the thirteenth century. With articles on art and architecture; religion and the church; law and society; politics and historiography; language and literature; and learning and textual culture, the authors introduce medieval Galicia and current research on the region to medievalists, Hispanists, and students of regional culture and society. The cult of St. James, Santiago Cathedral, and the pilgrimage to Compostela are highlighted and contextualized to show how Galicia’s remoteness became the basis for a paradoxical centrality in medieval art, culture, and religion. Contributors are Jeffrey A. Bowman, Manuel Castiñeiras, James D'Emilio, Thomas Deswarte, Pablo C. Díaz, Emma Falque, Amélia P. Hutchinson, Amancio Isla, Henrik Karge, Melissa R.

Book The Dominicans in the Americas and the Philippines  c  1500   c  1820

Download or read book The Dominicans in the Americas and the Philippines c 1500 c 1820 written by David T. Orique and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2024-08-06 with total page 401 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Dominicans in the Americas and the Philippines (c. 1500–c. 1820) is part of a renewal of interest in the global history of the Dominican Order. Many of the essays were carefully selected among some of the papers presented at the III International Conference on the History of the Order of Preachers in the Americas, a gathering that stands in continuity with the conferences of Mexico (2013) and Bogotá (2016). This book, the contributors of which are active researchers specializing in the history of the Order of Preachers in Latin America, is organized in four parts: Women and the Order of Preachers; “Benditos Bienes”: Libraries and Material Patrimony; Missions, Devotional, and Daily Life; and The Order of Preachers and Their Writings. Contributions deal with different subfields including art history, gender studies, history of the book, and intellectual history more broadly. Additionally, it contains a chapter examining the historiography of the Order of Preachers in Latin America. Covering the time range from 1510 to the early nineteenth century, the book fills a gap in the historiography of the Order of Preachers in the Americas, especially in English-language scholarly literature. Students of Latin American history, the history of Christianity, and the history of global Catholicism will surely find the volume to be of great interest.

Book Engendering Transnational Transgressions

Download or read book Engendering Transnational Transgressions written by Eileen Boris and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2020-11-23 with total page 275 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Engendering Transnational Transgressions reclaims the transgressive side of feminist history, challenging hegemonic norms and the power of patriarchies. Through the lenses of intersectionality, gender analysis, and transnational feminist theory, it addresses the political in public and intimate spaces. The book begins by highlighting the transgressive nature of feminist historiography. It then divides into two parts—Part I, Intimate Transgressions: Marriage and Sexuality, examines marriage and divorce as viewed through a transnational lens, and Part II, Global Transgressions: Networking for Justice and Peace, considers political and social violence as well as struggles for relief, redemption, and change by transnational networks of women. Chapters are archivally grounded and take a critical approach that underscores the local in the global and the significance of intersectional factors within the intimate. They bring into conversation literatures too often separated: history of feminisms and anti-war, anti-imperial/anti-fascist, and related movements, on the one hand, and studies of gender crossings, marriage reconstitution, and affect and subjectivities, on the other. In so doing, the book encourages the reader to rethink standard interpretations of rights, equality, and recognition. This is the ideal volume for students and scholars of Women’s and Gender History and Women’s and Gender Studies, as well as International, Transnational, and Global History, History of Social Movements, and related specialized topics.
