Download or read book Confessions of a Gay Priest written by Tom Rastrelli and published by University of Iowa Press. This book was released on 2020-04-15 with total page 337 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Tom Rastrelli is a survivor of clergy-perpetrated sexual abuse who then became a priest in the early days of the Catholic Church’s ongoing scandals. Confessions of a Gay Priest divulges the clandestine inner workings of the seminary, providing an intimate and unapologetic look into the psychosexual and spiritual dynamics of celibacy and lays bare the “formation” system that perpetuates the cycle of abuse and cover-up that continues today. Under the guidance of a charismatic college campus minister, Rastrelli sought to reconcile his homosexuality and childhood sexual abuse. When he felt called to the priesthood, Rastrelli began the process of “priestly discernment.” Priests welcomed him into a confusing clerical culture where public displays of piety, celibacy, and homophobia masked a closeted underworld in which elder priests preyed upon young recruits. From there he ventured deeper into the seminary system seeking healing, hoping to help others, and striving not to live a double life. Trained to treat sexuality like an addiction, he and his brother seminarians lived in a world of cliques, competition, self-loathing, alcohol, hidden crushes, and closeted sex. Ultimately, the “formation” intended to make Rastrelli a compliant priest helped to liberate him.

Download or read book Confessions of an Immigrant s Daughter written by Laura Goodman Salverson and published by McGill-Queen's Press - MQUP. This book was released on 2023-07-15 with total page 369 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Born in Winnipeg to Icelandic immigrants in 1890, Laura Goodman Salverson embarked on a life marked by contradiction and cultural exchange. Her 1939 memoir braids the strands of her parents’ intellectual life in Iceland with a hardscrabble existence on the Prairies at the turn of the century, all against a backdrop of European settlement in post-Riel Manitoba and in colourful, self-assured prose. Leaving behind economic hardship, a difficult climate, and the threat of volcanoes, Lars Gudman was in search of stability for his family, but he was also ensnared by wanderlust. Travelling onward to Minnesota, the Dakotas, Selkirk, Duluth, and the Mississippi Valley, Salverson and her parents returned time and again to the Icelandic enclave in Winnipeg, a community struggling to adjust to life in Canada. In Confessions of an Immigrant’s Daughter Salverson makes real the political and cultural history of the twentieth-century North American west, even as she draws the reader into the inner life of a young girl growing up “hopelessly Icelandic” and finding refuge from discrimination and ostracism in the world of books. With a new introduction by Carl Watts situating the memoir and its prolific author in the literary canon, and reproducing Salverson’s original preface for the first time, Confessions of an Immigrant’s Daughter remains both a Canadian classic and an important social history of the experiences of women and immigrants at the turn of the twentieth century.

Download or read book Confession of an Indifferent Witness written by Tom Rothschild and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2001-01-24 with total page 217 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Confessions of an Indifferent Witness is a science fiction tale taking place in the 1800’s. The main character, Melissa, is deeply involved in scientific studies of a number of different questions she has about the physical world. Along with her assistants, Susan and Jane, she makes some astounding discoveries which could be significant worldwide, as I’ve described in the novel The Inevitable Fall (© 1998, Vantage Press, Inc.). These two books are a part of The Melissa Saga. This book (Confessions) follows Susan and Jane as they make their way through life, and what happens when they meet and are hired by Melissa. They are not the main characters, though they have certainly influenced events as Melissa proceeds to solve problems others have only hypothesized about. Susan and Jane have met other people who, also, are concerned with weightier questions. Alisha is an example. I have included a "work", or an appendix, by Alisha’s husband as a point of fact. Of course, I have added current examples to make its theoretical points more relevant. However, I don’t believe there is any conflict between my 20th Century details and the 19th Century statements in Previously Deleted (Formerly Titled "Looking for Miss No-Show"). Just in case, I even adjusted the title of the "work" to steer clear of any complications.
