A few years later, her younger sister suddenly committed suicide. Within months her father was diagnosed with bone cancer and breast cancer struck her favorite aunt. Between 1990 and 1994, all of them died. Vita?s Will: Real Life Lessons About Life, Death & Moving On is a chronicle of Gisonni?s unimaginable experiences.

Download or read book Vita written by João Biehl and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 2013-05-01 with total page 457 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Zones of social abandonment are emerging everywhere in Brazil’s big cities—places like Vita, where the unwanted, the mentally ill, the sick, and the homeless are left to die. This haunting, unforgettable story centers on a young woman named Catarina, increasingly paralyzed and said to be mad, living out her time at Vita. Anthropologist João Biehl leads a detective-like journey to know Catarina; to unravel the cryptic, poetic words that are part of the "dictionary" she is compiling; and to trace the complex network of family, medicine, state, and economy in which her abandonment and pathology took form. An instant classic, Vita has been widely acclaimed for its bold fieldwork, theoretical innovation, and literary force. Reflecting on how Catarina’s life story continues, this updated edition offers the reader a powerful new afterword and gripping new photographs following Biehl and Eskerod’s return to Vita. Anthropology at its finest, Vita is essential reading for anyone who is grappling with how to understand the conditions of life, thought, and ethics in the contemporary world.

Download or read book The Passion of Kimpa Vita written by Jemadari Vi-Bee-Kil Kilele and published by Trafford Publishing. This book was released on 2019-01-18 with total page 101 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Kimpa Vita is a rejected stone that should become the builder’s head cornerstone in the modern era. Kilele is remolding an intentionally forgotten page of a Kongolese, say an African history, told by a conqueror to please their desire but is now rewritten by Africans themselves, as predicted by the late Patrice E. Lumumba. Greater than the French Joan of Arc, Kimpa Vita rejects Western religious alienation, domination, and spiritual formatting—a radical stance misjudged by the Western catholic priests who conspire with the naive locals to get her and her son burned at the stake. As an African martyr and heroine, Kimpa Vita, through her passion, as recounted by Jemadari Vi-Bee-Kil Kilele, remains a realistic tale to tell to the world’s generations at large, in order to expose false and imposed Western religions.

Download or read book The Lay Saint written by Mary Harvey Doyno and published by Cornell University Press. This book was released on 2019-10-15 with total page 260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In The Lay Saint, Mary Harvey Doyno investigates the phenomenon of saintly cults that formed around pious merchants, artisans, midwives, domestic servants, and others in the medieval communes of northern and central Italy. Drawing on a wide array of sources—vitae documenting their saintly lives and legends, miracle books, religious art, and communal records—Doyno uses the rise of and tensions surrounding these civic cults to explore medieval notions of lay religiosity, charismatic power, civic identity, and the church's authority in this period. Although claims about laymen's and laywomen's miraculous abilities challenged the church's expanding political and spiritual dominion, both papal and civic authorities, Doyno finds, vigorously promoted their cults. She shows that this support was neither a simple reflection of the extraordinary lay religious zeal that marked late medieval urban life nor of the Church's recognition of that enthusiasm. Rather, the history of lay saints' cults powerfully illustrates the extent to which lay Christians embraced the vita apostolic—the ideal way of life as modeled by the Apostles—and of the church's efforts to restrain and manage such claims.
