Book Hail Mary

  • Author : Maurice Hamington
  • Publisher : Routledge
  • Release : 2014-04-23
  • ISBN : 1136662952
  • Pages : 225 pages

Download or read book Hail Mary written by Maurice Hamington and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-04-23 with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hail Mary? examines the sexist and misogynist themes that underlie the socially constructed religious imagery of Mary, the mother of Jesus. Maurice Hamington explores the sources for three prominent Marian images: Mary as the "the blessed Virgin," Mary, the "Mediatrix"; and Mary, "the second Eve." Hamington critiques these images for the valorization of sexist forces with the Catholic Church that serve to maintain systems of oppression against women. In challenging dominant, religious representations of Mary, Hamington surveys a variety of emerging reinterpretations of Mary. He then provides a framework for further study of "non-alienating" images of Mary.

Book Victorians and the Virgin Mary

  • Author : Carol Engelhardt-Herringer
  • Publisher : Manchester University Press
  • Release : 2013-07-19
  • ISBN : 1847797156
  • Pages : 348 pages

Download or read book Victorians and the Virgin Mary written by Carol Engelhardt-Herringer and published by Manchester University Press. This book was released on 2013-07-19 with total page 348 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This interdisciplinary study of competing representations of the Virgin Mary examines how anxieties about religious and gender identities intersected to create public controversies that, whilst ostensibly about theology and liturgy, were also attempts to define the role and nature of women. Drawing on a variety of sources, this book seeks to revise our understanding of the Victorian religious landscape, both retrieving Catholics from the cultural margins to which they are usually relegated, and calling for a reassessment of the Protestant attitude to the feminine ideal. This book will be useful to advanced students and scholars in a variety of disciplines including history, religious studies, Victorian studies, women’s history and gender studies.

Book Masculinity and Marian Efficacy in Shakespeare s England

Download or read book Masculinity and Marian Efficacy in Shakespeare s England written by Ruben Espinosa and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-05-06 with total page 238 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Masculinity and Marian Efficacy in Shakespeare's England offers a new approach to evaluating the psychological 'loss' of the Virgin Mary in post-Reformation England by illustrating how, in the wake of Mary's demotion, re-inscriptions of her roles and meanings only proliferated, seizing hold of national imagination and resulting in new configurations of masculinity. The author surveys the early modern cultural and literary response to Mary's marginalization, and argues that Shakespeare employs both Roman Catholic and post-Reformation views of Marian strength not only to scrutinize cultural perceptions of masculinity, but also to offer his audience new avenues of exploring both religious and gendered subjectivity. By deploying Mary's symbolic valence to infuse certain characters, and dramatic situations with feminine potency, Espinosa analyzes how Shakespeare draws attention to the Virgin Mary as an alternative to an otherwise unilaterally masculine outlook on salvation and gendered identity formation.

Book Comic Sense

    Book Details:
  • Author : Thomas Pughe
  • Publisher : Birkhäuser
  • Release : 2013-03-09
  • ISBN : 3034877463
  • Pages : 206 pages

Download or read book Comic Sense written by Thomas Pughe and published by Birkhäuser. This book was released on 2013-03-09 with total page 206 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The idea for this study came to me in the course of my reading of innova tive US-American! fiction of the last three decades. I observed that much of it is cast in the comic mode - or, more precisely, that there seems to be in contemporary fiction an affinity between 'innovation' and 'the comic' and that this affinity, furthermore, appears to be characteristic of postmo dernism. It is obvious, at the same time, that comic has become an elusive and, more often than not, a disputable category. Frederick Karl, in his sur vey of American Fictions 1940-1980, maintains, for instance, that much comic writing consists in ridicule that lacks deeper intellectual and cul tural roots. "Wit and mockery," he notes, "by themselves have little lasting value. Even in the best of such fiction, Gravity's Rainbow, one is made aware of attenuated skits stiched onto previous segments, rather than baked in by a defined point of view. " (Karl: 27) Such assessments of course challenge my view that the comic is in significant ways connected with what is innovative in postmodernist US-American fiction. Yet the term comic -or related terms like humour, parody, irony and so fort- is regularly and heavily employed in discussions or reviews of con temporary fiction.

Mickey King Kong, a vampire novel, had been classified as Hitler Wins. Norma Shearer, the Oscar Winner and the protagonist, had been a vampire. Mickey King Kong, the world’s biggest monster, had been turned into a vampire, by Norma Shearer. The earth had been destroyed, and so had all the other celestial bodies, except the moon, which turned to ice. Most beings don’t have a mouth, fangs, teeth, or beak. This novel has the most racial slurs and usages of profanity, in a book, debatably. The novel also includes the character of Vlad the Impaler.Cold Blood had taken a few months to write, originally, and this was an early novel. This novel was science fiction.

Book Alla Nazimova in Googolplexnaire

Download or read book Alla Nazimova in Googolplexnaire written by Terry Parrott and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2013-08-13 with total page 135 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Hitler Wins of the novelette of Smart Arse got into ambrosia and the occult, and eventually it was entitled Superbitch. Terry Parrott had indulged anti-Semitism. Maldek and the calendar were attacked with the Virgin Mary and Jesus Christ, and antichristianity put the Jewification of Maldek, in its debunked place. His anti-Lamaism was put below his Maldekism or Maldekianism. Lamaism was Oriental Jewification of Maldek and Tree of Life. So there were things akin to limnology and antitreeoflife, which Thoreau and Emerson were assimilated by, ex post facto? Things akin to Maldek and Machinery's Handbook were signs of parasitic Jewification, including the penumbral, obvious R.U.R.'s references to science of war and oldest, pivotal religions. Heron clashed with weapons of Jews, or weapons of the Dead Sea Scrolls. So Lamaistically the wrong kinds of Jews had goaded plantations, making gestures of zoandry and The Koran. The mark of the beast was a castration of numerology, and devoid of the Dead Sea Scrolls it entails a magical significance, partly. Ex post facto, Jews attacked Tree of Life, utilizing zoandry and plantations, crookedly. So NAFTA had bolstered sparse population of Jews, in pastoral communities. So akin to Jews' imitation of numerology, other things were imitated and castrated, including the pentacle or the pentagram.
