Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Si è sempre detto, e la maggior parte degli scritti sull’argomento non si stanca di ripeterlo, che le donne nel Medioevo lavoravano, ma lavoravano in casa, tessendo e filando, magari alla luce di una candela ricordando il passato, come ce le dipinge in una lirica Ronsard. Potevano al massimo aiutare il marito nella sua attività, e proseguirla se vedove, ma erano retribuite meno rispetto agli uomini e incapaci di sopravvivere col proprio lavoro. Tutto questo secondo l’opinione tradizionale, viziata da preconcetti e da schemi attuali proiettati sul passato.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fama e genere, un nesso che rimarca la complessità di una relazione che persiste nei secoli nell’elaborazione giuridica e nella prassi della giustizia, nelle riflessioni dei teologi, nelle parole di predicatori e confessori. La donna è scrutata, disciplinata e controllata. Ma non solo: la donna è desiderata, onorata e imitata. Fama buona e fama cattiva. Fama spesso flessibile e negoziabile. Cattiva fama è quella di meretrici, spie, streghe, convertite e peccatrici, ormai ridotte a categorie e la dogaressa, raro esempio di donna esemplare, è quasi eccedente. Trasgrediscono perché vagano per la città o non assolvono al debito fiscale attentando all’ordine. Di ogni donna, del suo corpo, della sua onestà, dei suoi meriti la società attraverso sguardi, voci, mormorazioni decreta la fama.

This book was released on 2022-05-03 with total page 424 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The study of the textile sector has always been central to economic history: from reconstructions of the dynamic growth in the medieval wool industry, to the rise of silk and light and mixed fabrics in the modern era, to the driving role of cotton in the industrialisation process. Although the dynamics of textile manufacturing are closely linked to the transformations of fashion, economic history has long neglected its role as a factor in economic change, treating it primarily as a kind of exogenous catalyst. This book makes a decisive contribution to the understanding of a fundamental transformation, the consequences of which are projected into contemporary society, but which matured in pre-industrial times: the advent of fashion.

Download or read book Hindiyya Mystic and Criminal 1720 1798 written by Bernard Heyberger and published by James Clarke & Company. This book was released on 2013-03-28 with total page 340 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this compelling narrative, Bernard Heyberger relates the fascinating history of Hindiyya 'Ujaymi, a highly charismatic eighteenth-century mystic of sinister repute. Heyberger makes a careful study of Hindiyya's life from earliest childhood, with a detailed picture of her formative years in the eighteenth century Christian community of Aleppo, the domestic reality of which is little known, exploring the influences she would have experienced. He leads us through her spiritual development under the direction of the Jesuits, her determination to found a new religious order, and the tragic history of its collapse in a welter of paranoia and persecution. Heyberger also reveals the tensions and complex rivalries at play around Hindiyya between Rome, the Jesuits, and Eastern tribes, which were also beset by feuds and alliances. He makes extensive use of a wide variety of sources, from Hindiyya's own writings to reports from her confessors and Roman inquisitors, to shed light upon the Hindiyya affair. 'Hindiyya, Mystic and Criminal' relates the history of a woman of inflexible power of will and great charisma, who managed to move beyond the circumscribed world of her girlhood and realise what she believed to be her destiny. It will be of great interest to anyone seeking a deeper understanding of an affair which has been long obscured by contradictory reports, or to those interested in eighteenth-century Maronite Christianity and its complex interactions with the authority of Rome.
Download or read book Violence and Emotions in Early Modern Europe written by Susan Broomhall and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2015-07-30 with total page 231 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Violence and Emotions in Early Modern Europe examines the purposes for which specific forms of violence and particular emotional states functioned, how they operated in relation to each other, or indeed how one provoked, sustained or diminished the other. These twelve original essays demonstrate the complexities of violence and emotions and the myriad possibilities of their inter-relationships. They emphasize the great efforts that were made by early modern societies to control modes of violence and emotional regimes to achieve positive as well as negative effects, such as creating order, healing, and bringing individuals and communities together around productive identities. Authors consider legal documents, news reports, memoirs, letters, confraternity statutes, and medical consultations to investigate the bodily and textual practices in which violent and emotional acts were created, supported and disseminated to investigate the power, aims, effect and outcomes of relationships between violence and emotions. The chapters look at a range of topics and countries including Renaissance Italy and sixteenth-century Germany, France in the grip of the religious wars, and England’s Civil Wars as well as a wide range of topics including murder, punishment, community healing, insults, threats, prophecy and medical and devotional practices. This collection will be essential reading for students and scholars of the history of emotions or violence.

Download or read book Negotiation Collaboration and Conflict in Ancient and Medieval Communities written by Christian Krötzl and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2022-03-28 with total page 344 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Focusing on forms of interaction and methods of negotiation in multicultural, multi-ethnic and multilingual contexts during Antiquity and the Middle Ages, this volume examines questions of social and cultural interaction within and between diverse ethnic communities. Toleration and coexistence were essential in all late antique and medieval societies and their communities. However, power struggles and prejudices could give rise to suspicion, conflict and violence. All of these had a central influence on social dynamics, negotiations of collective or individual identity, definitions of ethnicity and the shaping of legal rules. What was the function of multicultural and multilingual interaction: did it create and increase conflicts, or was it rather a prerequisite for survival and prosperity? The focus of this book is society and the history of everyday life, examining gender, status and ethnicity and the various forms of interaction and negotiation.
Download or read book Peace and Penance in Late Medieval Italy written by Katherine Ludwig Jansen and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2020-03-31 with total page 278 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Medieval Italian communes are known for their violence, feuds, and vendettas, yet beneath this tumult was a society preoccupied with peace. Peace and Penance in Late Medieval Italy is the first book to examine how civic peacemaking in the age of Dante was forged in the crucible of penitential religious practice. Focusing on Florence in the thirteenth and fourteenth centuries, an era known for violence and civil discord, Katherine Ludwig Jansen brilliantly illuminates how religious and political leaders used peace agreements for everything from bringing an end to neighborhood quarrels to restoring full citizenship to judicial exiles. She brings to light a treasure trove of unpublished evidence from notarial archives and supports it with sermons, hagiography, political treatises, and chronicle accounts. She paints a vivid picture of life in an Italian commune, a socially and politically unstable world that strove to achieve peace. Jansen also assembles a wealth of visual material from the period, illustrating for the first time how the kiss of peace—a ritual gesture borrowed from the Catholic Mass—was incorporated into the settlement of secular disputes. Breaking new ground in the study of peacemaking in the Middle Ages, Peace and Penance in Late Medieval Italy adds an entirely new dimension to our understanding of Italian culture in this turbulent age by showing how peace was conceived, memorialized, and occasionally achieved.
Download or read book A Cultural History of Marriage in the Renaissance and Early Modern Age written by Joanne M. Ferraro and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2021-11-18 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why marry? The personal question is timeless. Yet the highly emotional desires of men and women during the period between 1450 and 1650 were also circumscribed by external forces that operated within a complex arena of sweeping economic, demographic, political, and religious changes. The period witnessed dramatic religious reforms in the Catholic confession and the introduction of multiple Protestant denominations; the advent of the printing press; European encounters and exchange with the Americas, North Africa, and southwestern and eastern Asia; the growth of state bureaucracies; and a resurgence of ecclesiastical authority in private life. These developments, together with social, religious, and cultural attitudes, including the constructed norms of masculinity, femininity, and sexuality, impinged upon the possibility of marrying. The nine scholars in this volume aim to provide a comprehensive picture of current research on the cultural history of marriage for the years between 1450 and 1650 by identifying both the ideal templates for nuptial unions in prescriptive writings and artistic representation and actual practices in the spheres of courtship and marriage rites, sexual relationships, the formation of family networks, marital dissolution, and the overriding choices of individuals over the structural and cultural constraints of the time. A Cultural History of Marriage in the Renaissance and Early Modern Age presents an overview of the period with essays on Courtship and Ritual; Religion, State and Law; Kinship and Social Networks; the Family Economy; Love and Sex; the Breaking of Vows; and Representations of Marriage.
Download or read book Women and Religion in Medieval and Renaissance Italy written by Daniel Bornstein and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 1996-07-15 with total page 348 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Between the twelfth and the sixteenth centuries, women assumed public roles of unprecedented prominence in Italian religious culture. Legally subordinated, politically excluded, socially limited, and ideologically disdained, women's active participation in religious life offered them access to power in all its forms. These essays explore the involvement of women in religious life throughout northern and central Italy and trace the evolution of communities of pious women as they tried to achieve their devotional goals despite the strictures of the ecclesiastical hierarchy. The contributors examine relations between holy women, their devout followers, and society at large. Including contributions from leading figures in a new generation of Italian historians of religion, this book shows how women were able to carve out broad areas of influence by carefully exploiting the institutional church and by astutely manipulating religious percepts.
