Book Education and Women in the Early Modern Hispanic World

Download or read book Education and Women in the Early Modern Hispanic World written by Elizabeth Teresa Howe and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-04-29 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Considering the presence and influence of educated women of letters in Spain and New Spain, this study looks at the life and work of early modern women who advocated by word or example for the education of women. The subjects of the book include not only such familiar figures as Sor Juana and Santa Teresa de Jesús, but also of less well known women of their time. The author uses primary documents, published works, artwork, and critical sources drawn from history, literature, theatre, philosophy, women's studies, education and science. Her analysis juxtaposes theories espoused by men and women of the period concerning the aptitude and appropriateness of educating women with the actual practices to be found in convents, schools, court, theaters and homes. What emerges is a fuller picture of women's learning in the early modern period.

Book Don Juan  El anillo funesto

Download or read book Don Juan El anillo funesto written by Ariel C. Arango and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2012-01-16 with total page 156 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: MATRIMONIO: UN RITUAL QUE DESINFLA EL DESEO. El Matrimonio es un ritual de iniciacion. El mismo fatídico ceremonial que el de los pueblos primitivos: un ritual de circuncision. Freud dice que quienes se casan no sospechan cuantos renunciamientos trae consigo el matrimonio ni a lo que queda reducida la felicidad conyugal tan apasionadamente deseada. El varon sometido al ritual del matrimonio (y es de el de quien se habla en esta historia) debe llevar, para siempre un anillo en el dedo. Es la señal de la renuncia, con la aceptación de la monogamia, a su libertad instintiva. El anillo es un emblema de la castracion y, por eso, funesto. Don Juan no se lo puso jamas. INDICE. Una intrusion odiosa. El deseo atrapado. El ritual. Pecado y redencion. El eterno salvaje. La marca del esclavo. Simbolismos. El dedo enfermo. El anillo funesto. Final sombrio. // Primer libro de la trilogia "Don Juan" y que se incluye ademas como la primera parte de "Don Juan. Psicoanalisis del matrimonio" // Mas en www.arielarango.com

Book Golden Leaves and Burned Books

Download or read book Golden Leaves and Burned Books written by Teemu Immonen and published by BoD - Books on Demand. This book was released on 2020-07-30 with total page 346 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In religious reforms, books and other forms of written communication play a dominant role, both for individuals as well as for groups. Covering the period from the late Middle Ages to the early seventeenth century, the chapters of this volume reflect on the use of books in religious reform movements and their impact on lay people and monastic communities. For those committed to religious renewal, books are the necessary and often enthusiastically welcomed vehicles for the transmission of religious reform concepts. They are at the same time often the objects of severe opposition and negative reactions in attempts at hindering or reversing religious reform for others. The researchers make use of approaches from cultural history, book history and English studies, among others. Contributions range from theory and practices of religious reform with special regard to the interaction between the laity and religious orders in their search for models of 'good religious living' to research on the changing processes of communication from manuscript to print and their impact on religious renewal.

  • Publisher : Wm. B. Eerdmans Publishing
  • Release : 2010-12-21
  • ISBN : 0802865844
  • Pages : 234 pages

Download or read book Peregrino written by Ron Austin and published by Wm. B. Eerdmans Publishing. This book was released on 2010-12-21 with total page 234 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ron Austin first wandered purposefully into Mexico more than fifty years ago, when he produced a documentary on Mexican history for American television. Over the next decades, as his acquaintance with Mexico deepened, so too did his appreciation for the rich and contradictory impulses of Mexican culture and for the beauty of its people and their expressions of faith. At once guidebook, history, memoir, and tribute, Austin s Peregrino engagingly explores the spiritual and cultural heart of Catholic Mexico. Though once merely a tourist peering in a stranger to this distinctive faith and culture Austin, now a devout Catholic and part-year resident of Mexico, writes with respect, affection, and deep understanding as he invites fellow pilgrims peregrinos to regard both Mexico and their own cultures of faith in a new light.
