Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Pilgrim of Our Lady of Martyrs, Vol. 11: Little Messenger of the Sacred Hearts; January, 1895 But now the Christmas Star so bright, Is hid from us as by some fog, Which shrouds the Jack o' Lantern's light At dusk within the darksome bog. Men look upon the Son of Man As hero of some ancient tale, Whose glory o'er the ages' span, Seems almost tarnished and grown pale. This reckless Christmas holiday, Forgetting Him who gave it birth, But fills my heart with deep dismay, With all its hollow, sinful mirth.

Book The Pilgrim of Our Lady of Martyrs  Little Messenger of the Sacred Heart   Vol  8

Download or read book The Pilgrim of Our Lady of Martyrs Little Messenger of the Sacred Heart Vol 8 written by Apostleship of Prayer Philadelphia and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-01-18 with total page 392 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Pilgrim of Our Lady of Martyrs (Little Messenger of the Sacred Heart), Vol. 8: An American Monthly Magazine of the Popular Literature of Catholic Devotion; Eighth Year; January-December, 1892 Readiness to Speak words of unquestioning praise of Mary is one of the signs that our faith is truly a gift of God. Of this Spirit of praise among Catholics the Lit anies are clearly our very best proof. The fact that no one knows the time or occasion of their composition goes to show how spontaneous an outburst they are of the reverence and attachment Catholics have at all times cherished for their queen-mother. And so we sing her praise as Queen and to emphasize this name of hers, we pronounce it over and over again, like our decade of Hail Maria, and we fondly count in order the several grades of her sovereignty. In days and places which are losing respect for all who bear the name of queen, it is worth while to inquire reverently what a true queen should be to her people; and our inquiry should be the more earnest and thorough, since there is danger that the growing disrespect for the name may gradually cool the fervor or weaken the piety with which we call Mary our Queen. Although we are not apt to consider our rulers more than mortal, or to treat them for demi-gods, as the degenerate Romans did, it may help to remember that the very words-king and Queen - mean one of our kin, chosen of our race, the son or daughter of a tribe or people. Our king and queen then must have our nature, and be of our race, members of the human family like ourselves; and this is so true, that their very elevation to the highest rank reflects a real dignity on the family from which they are chosen. That dignity is a Share by descent in the blood royal. In calling Mary Queen we implicitly call ourselves her subjects; to honor her with that high dignity is to proclaim our own nobility.

Book A Saint of Our Own

  • Author : Kathleen Sprows Cummings
  • Publisher : UNC Press Books

  • ISBN : 1469649489
  • Pages : 333 pages

Download or read book A Saint of Our Own written by Kathleen Sprows Cummings and published by UNC Press Books. This book was released on 2019-02-27 with total page 333 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What drove U.S. Catholics in their arduous quest, full of twists and turns over more than a century, to win an American saint? The absence of American names in the canon of the saints had left many of the faithful feeling spiritually unmoored. But while canonization may be fundamentally about holiness, it is never only about holiness, reveals Kathleen Sprows Cummings in this panoramic, passionate chronicle of American sanctity. Catholics had another reason for petitioning the Vatican to acknowledge an American holy hero. A home-grown saint would serve as a mediator between heaven and earth, yes, but also between Catholicism and American culture. Throughout much of U.S. history, the making of a saint was also about the ways in which the members of a minority religious group defined, defended, and celebrated their identities as Americans. Their fascinatingly diverse causes for canonization—from Kateri Tekakwitha and Elizabeth Ann Seton to many others that are failed, forgotten, or still under way—represented evolving national values as Catholics made themselves at home. Cummings's vision of American sanctity shows just how much Catholics had at stake in cultivating devotion to men and women perched at the nexus of holiness and American history—until they finally felt little need to prove that they belonged.

Book Maya British Conflict at the Edge of the Yucatecan Caste War

Download or read book Maya British Conflict at the Edge of the Yucatecan Caste War written by Christine A. Kray and published by University Press of Colorado. This book was released on 2023-07-17 with total page 358 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Maya-British Conflict at the Edge of the Yucatecan Caste War interrogates the 1862 alliance forged between the San Pedro Maya and the British during the Caste War of Yucatán (1847–1901). Illuminating the complex interactions among Maya groups, Yucatecans of Spanish descent, and British settlers in what is now Belize, Christine A. Kray uses storytelling techniques, suspense, and humor, via historical documents and oral history interviews to tell a new story about the dynamics at the heart of the Social War. Official British declarations of neutrality in the Caste War were confounded by a variety of political and economic factors, including competing land claims befuddled by a tangled set of treaties, mahogany extraction by British companies in contested territories, Maya rent demands, British trade in munitions to different groups of Maya combatants, and a labor system reliant on debt servitude. All these factors contributed to uneasy alliances and opportunistic crossings of imagined geopolitical borders in both directions, ultimately leading to a new military conflict in the western and northern regions of the territory claimed by Britain. What frequently began as hyper-local disputes spun out into international affairs as actors called upon more powerful groups for assistance. Evading reductionism, this work traces the decisions and actions of key figures as they maneuvered through the miasma of violence, abuse, deception, fear, flight, and glimpses of freedom. Positioning the historiographic and ethnographic gaze on the English side without adopting the colonialist narratives and objectives found in English repositories, Maya-British Conflict at the Edge of the Yucatecan Caste War is an important and original contribution to a neglected area of study. It will appeal to students, scholars, and general readers interested in anthropology, Latin American cultures and history, Central American history, British imperialism, Indigenous rights, political anthropology, and colonialism and culture.

Book A History of American Magazines  Volume III  1865 1885

Download or read book A History of American Magazines Volume III 1865 1885 written by Frank Luther Mott and published by Harvard University Press. This book was released on 1938 with total page 696 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first volume of this work, covering the period from 1741-1850, was issued in 1931 by another publisher, and is reissued now without change, under our imprint. The second volume covers the period from 1850 to 1865; the third volume, the period from 1865 to 1885. For each chronological period, Mr. Mott has provided a running history which notes the occurrence of the chief general magazines and the developments in the field of class periodicals, as well as publishing conditions during that period, the development of circulations, advertising, payments to contributors, reader attitudes, changing formats, styles and processes of illustration, and the like. Then in a supplement to that running history, he offers historical sketches of the chief magazines which flourished in the period. These sketches extend far beyond the chronological limitations of the period. The second and third volumes present, altogether, separate sketches of seventy-six magazines, including The North American Review, The Youth's Companion, The Liberator, The Independent, Harper's Monthly, Leslie's Weekly, Harper's Weekly, The Atlantic Monthly, St. Nicholas, and Puck. The whole is an unusual mirror of American civilization.

Book LITTLE WOMEN and THE FEMINIST IMAGINATION

Download or read book LITTLE WOMEN and THE FEMINIST IMAGINATION written by Janice M. Alberghene and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-04-08 with total page 495 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Raising key questions about race, class, sexuality, age, material culture, intellectual history, pedagogy, and gender, this book explores the myriad relationships between feminist thinking and Little Women, a novel that has touched many women's lives. A critical introduction traces 130 years of popular and critical response, and the collection presents 11 new essays, two new bibliographies, and reprints of six classic essays. The contributors examine the history of illustrating Little Women; Alcott's use of domestic architecture as codes of female self-expression; the tradition of utopian writing by women; relationship to works by British and African American writers; recent thinking about feminist pedagogy; the significance of the novel for women writers, and its implications from the vantage points of middle-aged scholar, parent, and resisting male reader.
