Download or read book The Catholic Church and Modern Sexual Knowledge 1850 1950 written by Lucia Pozzi and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-09-24 with total page 286 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is the first to present a comprehensive historical picture of the modern Catholic concern with the body and sexuality. The Catholic church is commonly believed to have always opposed birth control and abortion throughout the centuries. Yet the Catholic encounter with modern sexuality has a more complex and interesting history. What was the meaning of sexual purity? Why did eugenics matter to Catholicism? How did the Society of Jesus interpret the idea of overpopulation? Why did Pius XI decide to issue the notorious encyclical Casti connubii on Christian marriage – the first modern papal pronouncement on birth control, abortion, and eugenics? In answering these questions, Lucia Pozzi uncovers new archival and unpublished records to dig into Catholic responses to modern sexual knowledge, showing the Catholic church at times resisting, but also often welcoming, scientific modernity.

Download or read book Women in Italy 1945 1960 An Interdisciplinary Study written by P. Morris and published by Springer. This book was released on 2006-10-30 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume brings together specialists from a variety of disciplines to develop a deeper understanding of the social, political, and cultural history of women in Italy in the years 1946-1960. Despite being a time when women and the family were at the center of national debates, and when society changed considerably, the fifteen years following the Second World War have tended to be overlooked or subsumed into discussions of other periods. By focusing on the experience of women and by broadening the frame of reference to include subjects and sources often ignored, or only alluded to, by traditional analyses, the essays in this volume break new ground and provide a corrective to previous interpretive models.

This book was released on 2014-01-02 with total page 222 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nei primi del '900 si affacciava in Italia un nuovo Metodo Pedagogico che poneva un interrogativo nei confronti di metodi e di didattiche gia preesistenti: lo Scoutismo, che in Italia trovava gia in gran voga il Metodo ""Montessori."" Si diceva che Baden Powell, fondatore di questo strano Metodo, fosse un Alto Ufficiale della Gran Bretagna e che fosse affiliato alla Massoneria: le sue idee, in effetti, ricalcavano quelle dell'illustre pedagogo Ovide Decroly e la sua amicizia con lo scrittore Rudyard Kipling ne doveva essere la ""prova provata."" Era vero? In Italia, nel frattempo, un luminare della medicina, il professor Carlo Colombo, introduceva il suo Corpo Nazionale dei Giovani Esploratori, che aveva la caratteristica di essere laico, facendo infuriare l'ordine della ""Compagnia del Gesu,"" che dal 1850 aveva fondato il periodico ""La Civilta Cattolica."" Questo libro ripropone una storia, chiarendola sotto un taglio filosofico, teologico e pedagogico. Una storia che cosi, non era mai stata raccontata.
Download or read book Women Agency and Religion written by Ilaria Valenzi and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2024-11-28 with total page 364 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On both Mediterranean shores, women’s agency is articulated by new social and legal actors that face the religious factor both as an asset and as a brake. This book explores how female agency is defined and takes place in the region. The collection brings together contributions of both theoretical and thematic nature mapping various experiences on the public role of women in the Mediterranean context. In particular, the book relates the two sides, observing affinities and differences in the affirmation of women’s agency. This synoptic approach avoids essentialist contraposition and dialectic between different cultural, religious and political universes and emphasizes the role of a common geopolitical space where women's agency is playing an increasingly decisive role in the building and defense of constitutional democratic political systems. The reflection is enriched by the specific analysis of the role of a “religious factor” in the process of affirmation or, in contrast, as a restraint on women’s agency. The book focuses both on the role of women believers in the processes of transformation of the political contexts of the North African and Euro-Mediterranean area, and on the role of women within religions, questioning from inside the patriarchal traditions of the latter. The book applies a multidisciplinary approach to the theme of women’s agency, in which law, sociology, theology and philosophy interact with each other. As such, it will be a valuable resource for those working in the areas of Human Rights Law, Law and Religion, Socio-legal Studies and Gender Studies.

Download or read book Italian Fascism and the Female Body written by Gigliola Gori and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 262 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the first text to examine women and sport in Italy during the period 1861-1945. To qualify and quantify the impact of fascism on Italian Women's sport, the author first of all examines the pre-fascist period in terms of female physical culture. The text then describes how during the fascist era, women moved strictly within a framework designed by medicine and eugenics, religious and traditional education. The country aspired to emancipation, as promised by the fascist revolution but emancipation was hard to advance under the fascist regime because of male hegemonic trends in the country. This book shows how the engagement of women in some sporting activity did promote and support some gender emancipation. The conclusion of the book demonstrates how, in the post-war period, women found it hard to advance further on, for a number of reasons.

Book excerpt: "Da quei giorni felici, che oggi mi appaiono come in un sogno - bello, ma ormai sbiadito - sono passati più di quaranta anni. Per quanto possono sembrare lontani, quei Giorni, quel Mondo, quelle Persone, insinuano il dubbio che non siano mai esistiti davvero. In questo libro non si tratterà di come magnificare quei giorni, quel Mondo, quelle Persone; ma si tenterà, piuttosto, d'impedire la definitiva estinzione del loro fin troppo effimero ricordo."

Book excerpt: The rugged landscape of Baronia on Sardinia sets the scene for this novel of crime, guilt and retribution. This novel presents the story of the Pintor sisters - from a family of noble landowners now in decline - their nephew Giacinto, and their servant Efix, who is trying to make up for a mysterious sin committed many years before. Around, below, and inside them the raging Mediterranean storms, the jagged mountains, the murmuring forests, and the gushing springs form a Greek chorus of witness to the tragic drama of this unforgiving land. Deledda tells her story with her characteristic love of the natural landscape and fascination with the folk culture of the island, with details about the famous religious festivals held in mountain encampments and the lore of the "dark beings who populate the Sardinian night, the fairies who live in rocks and caves, and the sprites with seven red caps who bother sleep." Introduction by the Sardinian ethnographer, Dolores Turchi.
