Book Katharine Drexel and the Sisters Who Shared Her Vision

Download or read book Katharine Drexel and the Sisters Who Shared Her Vision written by McGuinness, Margaret M. and published by Paulist Press. This book was released on with total page 230 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although Katharine Drexel has been the subject of several biographies, they have tended to treat her as a perfect human being whom the Church later transformed into a saint. Katherine and the Sisters Who Shared Her Vision moves beyond the story of the heiress’s individual life devoted to God and shines a light on the work she did, assisted by the Sisters of the Blessed Sacrament. Drexel could have lived comfortably, wealthy and privileged, as a Philadelphia philanthropist but chose to found a religious congregation of women dedicated to working within Black and Indigenous communities—without receiving the bulk of the money left by Drexel's father. The author’s careful examination of the work Drexel and her Sisters accomplished in Philadelphia and elsewhere shows impacts on the Church while also revealing racial issues at work in the story. This brings a critical perspective to Drexel's ministry to further our understanding of the Black Catholic community and renew our commitment to the difficult, ongoing conversation about race in America.

Book Teacher Representations in Dramatic Text and Performance

Download or read book Teacher Representations in Dramatic Text and Performance written by Melanie Shoffner and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2019-09-06 with total page 125 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines representations of the teacher on stage - in both theatrical performances and dramatic text - in order to demonstrate how these representations have shaped society’s perceptions of educators in and out of the classroom. At the heart of this book is the interaction between theatre and teacher education. By considering how dramatic portrayals reimagine, reinforce and/or undermine our understanding of the teacher’s personal and professional roles, this volume bridges the gap between truth in dramatic literature and truth in the classroom. Chapters critically explore the personas embodied by fictional teachers in well-known works such as Educating Rita, School of Rock and The History Boys and illustrate how educators might use dramatic literature and performance to interrogate entrenched ideas about the student-teacher dynamic. By bringing together a diverse set of contributors from the fields of teacher education and theatre, this book takes a critical look at performance, text, society and culture to promote a new understanding of teaching and learning. This unique book will be of great interest to graduate and postgraduate students, academics and researchers in the fields of teacher education, drama and theatre education.
