Download or read book Consecrated Womanhood written by Frederic Rowland Marvin and published by Good Press. This book was released on 2021-05-19 with total page 28 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The work contains multiple examples of strong women in Scripture, but what makes it reasonable today is the author's detailed and cautious expression of how the Bible has come down on a large number of societal problems as well as how, historically, the Bible has always been a progressive and enlightening book, that's appropriate in all times and places. This work is an impressive sermon, preached in the First Congregational Church Portland, Oregon by Frederic Rowland Marvin, with an introductory notice by Frances Power Cobbe. It was delivered in 1903 during the women's ballot movement on the controversial subject of women in administration. Consecrated Womanhood is like a breath of fresh air for those who have long been dissatisfied by the prevailing tendency in Christian churches to deny to women the privileges and responsibilities of holy offices and duties. The preacher opens his discourse with the statement that "the Bible honored woman when every other book was blind to the true dignity of her character."

Download or read book Understanding the Consecrated Life in Canada written by Jason Zuidema and published by Wilfrid Laurier Univ. Press. This book was released on 2015-12-21 with total page 425 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The story of the consecrated life in Canada since the 1960s should be about much more than numerical decline. Although the falling numbers are significant among Catholic religious in communities that pre-date Vatican II, many communities continue to show stability and even growth. This book provides nuance to that story by adding detailed portraits of movements, communities and institutions. In four parts, this book presents essays from the leading scholars on religious life in Canada that seek to address the state of religious communities dedicated to religious virtuosity normally characterized by formal promises of chastity, poverty, and obedience. The essays examine a broad range of topics related to the general state of consecrated (or “religious” or “monastic”) life in contemporary Canadian Christian and Buddhist traditions. In the first section, the contributors trace the demographics and definitions of religious life in Canada. The second section examines Canadian developments in Catholic religious life during the Vatican II and the post-Vatican II eras. A third section explores trends in contemporary Canadian religious life, while the fourth section describes the consecrated life in other Canadian religious traditions.

This anthology is an inspiration for all women today who are seeking opportunity to define and realise their charisma.
Download or read book Women and Aristocratic Culture in the Carolingian World written by Valerie L. Garver and published by Cornell University Press. This book was released on 2012-05-08 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Despite the wealth of scholarship in recent decades on medieval women, we still know much less about the experiences of women in the early Middle Ages than we do about those in later centuries. In Women and Aristocratic Culture in the Carolingian World, Valerie L. Garver offers a fresh appraisal of the cultural and social history of eighth- and ninth-century women. Examining changes in women's lives and in the ways others perceived women during the early Middle Ages, she shows that lay and religious women, despite their legal and social constrictions, played integral roles in Carolingian society. Garver's innovative book employs an especially wide range of sources, both textual and material, which she uses to construct a more complex and nuanced impression of aristocratic women than we've seen before. She looks at the importance of female beauty and adornment; the family and the construction of identities and collective memory; education and moral exemplarity; wealth, hospitality and domestic management; textile work, and the lifecycle of elite Carolingian women. Her interdisciplinary approach makes deft use of canons of church councils, chronicles, charters, polyptychs, capitularies, letters, poetry, exegesis, liturgy, inventories, hagiography, memorial books, artworks, archaeological remains, and textiles. Ultimately, Women and Aristocratic Culture in the Carolingian World underlines the centrality of the Carolingian era to the reshaping of antique ideas and the development of lasting social norms.

Download or read book Female Agency in Manuscript Cultures written by Eike Grossmann and published by Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG. This book was released on 2024-06-17 with total page 326 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Manuscript cultures have frequently forgotten, neglected, or even erased women's contributions from memory. Women's agency has also been a glaring blind spot in the scholarly pursuit of gender perspectives on the production of written artefacts. This volume addresses these lacunae by highlighting manuscripts and inscriptions by and for women, their active participation and enabling sponsorship, and their role in the circulation and dissemination of written artefacts. Seven papers present case studies from East Asian inscriptions to ancient cuneiform epigraphic, Egyptian graffiti from late antiquity to individual specimen and large-scale collections in medieval Europe, focusing on how women participated in and contributed to those. How did they assert their involvement, their claims and their aspirations? By what rationales and mechanisms were they excluded or their contribution marginalised? How did they react to structures that discriminated against them, eventually circumventing, subverting and transforming them? The present volume sheds light on new findings, gives unique insights and discusses methodological considerations in the budding field of women's manuscript studies.

Download or read book Land of Women written by Lisa M. Bitel and published by Cornell University Press. This book was released on 1998 with total page 330 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This book disperses the shadows in an obscure but important landscape. Lisa Bitel addresses both the history of women in early Ireland and the history of myth, legend, and superstition which surrounded them. It is a powerful and exact book and an invaluable addition to our expanding sense of Ireland through the eyes of Irish women."--Eavan Boland, author of In a Time of Violence: Poems"It is refreshing to read in a book by a woman on medieval women that not all clerics hated women and that not all men were oversexed villains consciously bent on exploiting women. [Bitel] challenges not only the medieval Irish male construct of female behavior, but she is also courageous enough to question constructs of medieval women invented by modern Irish medieval historians."--Times Higher Education Supplement
