Redefining Female Religious Life: French Ursulines and English Ladies in Seventeenth-Century Catholicism
ISBN: 9780754637165 / Angielski / Twarda / 2005 / 244 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) This short study offers a contribution to the flourishing debate on post-Reformation female piety. In an effort to avoid excessive polarization condemning conventual life as restrictive or hailing it as a privileged path towards spiritual perfection, it analyses the reasons which led early-modern women to found new congregations with active vocations. Were these novel communities born out of their founders' rejection of the conventual model? Through the comparative analysis of two congregations which became, in seventeenth-century France and England, the embodiment of women's efforts to...

Spirit, Faith and Church: Womenâ (Tm)S Experiences in the English-Speaking World, 17th-21st Centuries
ISBN: 9781443834650 / Angielski / Twarda / 2012 / 255 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) Contradictions are legion when it comes to women and spirituality. In Christian cultures, the worth of the female sex is highly ambivalent, since virginity and motherhood are construed respectively as badges of purity and fruitfulness, whilst the biological processes which underlie them are considered taboo or impure. Throughout history, women are in turn represented as inferior, defective creatures or as privileged 'empty vessels' in their relationship with the divine. This polarized conception of woman has influenced the way in which religious institutions, learned writers, or indeed women...

This collection of essays ponders upon the intricate relations between the military and the spiritual from the Middle Ages to the present day. In order to analyse human attitudes towards conflicts, it is necessary to dwell upon the nebulous area where the religious and political spheres interweave so tightly that they become virtually impossible to distinguish. Indeed, despite remaining the responsibility of the state, the political decision to go to war depends heavily on some spiritual underpinning since, without a moral, ethical, or religious justification, it stands for gratuitous...

Between 1600 and 1800 around 4,000 Catholic women left England for a life of exile in the convents of France, Flanders, Portugal and America.
