  • Publisher : University of Chicago Press
  • Release : 2018-06-29
  • ISBN : 022651899X
  • Pages : 624 pages

Download or read book Forgetful of Their Sex written by Jane Tibbetts Schulenburg and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2018-06-29 with total page 624 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this remarkable study of over 2,200 female and male saints, Jane Schulenburg explores women's status and experience in early medieval society and in the Church by examining factors such as family wealth and power, patronage, monasticism, virginity, and motherhood. The result is a unique depiction of the lives of these strong, creative, independent-minded women who achieved a visibility in their society that led to recognition of sanctity. "A tremendous piece of scholarship. . . . This journey through more than 2,000 saints is anything but dull. Along the way, Schulenburg informs our ideas regarding the role of saints in the medieval psyche, gender-specific identification, and the heroics of virginity." —Library Journal "[This book] will be a kind of 'roots' experience for some readers. They will hear the voices, haunted and haunting, of their distant ancestors and understand more about themselves." —Christian Science Monitor "This fascinating book reaches far beyond the history of Christianity to recreate the 'herstory' of a whole gender." —Kate Saunders, The Independent

Book The Apostolic Fathers  A New Translation and Commentary  Volume II

Download or read book The Apostolic Fathers A New Translation and Commentary Volume II written by Robert M. Grant and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2020-05-14 with total page 150 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the second in a new six volume translation of and commentary on the works of the Apostolic Fathers. The writings of these men, which immediately follow the books of the New Testament, make up a body of literature that provides indispensable source material for the study of the formation of the Christian Church. Interest in the early Church is higher today than ever before. Theologians, religious authorities, students, and historians find the initial stages of Church development relevant to the contemporary structure of the Church. Volume 2, First and Second Clement, provides translation of and commentary on two of the best-known writings of the Apostolic Fathers. The First Letter of Clement or, more accurately, the letter of the Roman Church to the Corinthian community, provides a significant mixture of scriptural and non-scriptural motifs. The so-called Second Letter of Clement is neither a letter nor by Clement. Actually it is a sermon which deals first with self-control and more generally with exhorting the hearers to repentance and thereby to salvation and life. Not until the rise of historical scholarship in the nineteenth century could its real importance begin to be adequately assessed.

Book The Days of Creation

    Book Details:
  • Author : Andrew J. Brown
  • Publisher : BRILL
  • Release : 2019-05-21
  • ISBN : 9004397531
  • Pages : 373 pages

Download or read book The Days of Creation written by Andrew J. Brown and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2019-05-21 with total page 373 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Days of Creation examines the history of Christian interpretation of the seven-day framework of Genesis 1:1–2:3 in the Hebrew Bible/Old Testament from the post-apostolic era to the debates surrounding Essays and Reviews (1860). Included in the survey are patristic, medieval, Renaissance/Reformation, eighteenth-century Enlightenment and finally early to mid-nineteenth-century interpretations of the days of creation. This study enables an insight into the mighty career of a biblical text of seminal importance, and fills a significant niche in reception-historical research.
