Book excerpt: Winner, 2012 Book Award, Society for the Study of Early Modern WomenHonorable Mention, Literature, 2012 PROSE Awards, Professional and Scholarly Publishing Division of the Association of American Publishers In her award-winning, critically acclaimed Women’s Writing in Italy, 1400–1650, Virginia Cox chronicles the history of women writers in early modern Italy—who they were, what they wrote, where they fit in society, and how their status changed during this period. In this book, Cox examines more closely one particular moment in this history, in many ways the most remarkable for the richness and range of women’s literary output. A widespread critical notion sees Italian women’s writing as a phenomenon specific to the peculiar literary environment of the mid-sixteenth century, and most scholars assume that a reactionary movement such as the Counter-Reformation was unlikely to spur its development. Cox argues otherwise, showing that women’s writing flourished in the period following 1560, reaching beyond the customary "feminine" genres of lyric, poetry, and letters to experiment with pastoral drama, chivalric romance, tragedy, and epic. There were few widely practiced genres in this eclectic phase of Italian literature to which women did not turn their hand. Organized by genre, and including translations of all excerpts from primary texts, this comprehensive and engaging volume provides students and scholars with an invaluable resource as interest in these exceptional writers grows. In addition to familiar, secular works by authors such as Isabella Andreini, Moderata Fonte, and Lucrezia Marinella, Cox also discusses important writings that have largely escaped critical interest, including Fonte’s and Marinella’s vivid religious narratives, an unfinished Amazonian epic by Maddalena Salvetti, and the startlingly fresh autobiographical lyrics of Francesca Turina Bufalini. Juxtaposing religious and secular writings by women and tracing their relationship to the male-authored literature of the period, often surprisingly affirmative in its attitudes toward women, Cox reveals a new and provocative vision of the Italian Counter-Reformation as a period far less uniformly repressive of women than is commonly assumed.

Download or read book Women Reformers of Early Modern Europe written by Kirsi I. Stjerna and published by Fortress Press. This book was released on 2022-10-04 with total page 426 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Women Reformers of Early Modern Europe provides an expansive view of women negotiating their faith, voice, and agency in the religious and cultural scene of the sixteenth-century reformations. Women from different geographic contexts (Germany, France, Spain, Italy, Holland, and Scandinavia) and from a broad spectrum of vocations and social standings are highlighted along with examples of their original writings in English translation (in some cases brand new). An international, interdisciplinary cohort of over thirty scholars provide cutting-edge scholarship on women, religion, and gender in the sixteenth-century reformation context. Chapters interpret historical sources relevant to the women in question and provide original material for a deeper understanding of each woman's specific negotiations about her faith and religious preferences, as well as about her specific options--as a woman. Most of the women in the book left a written record, providing a valuable window into women's spirituality and theology. Gender questions are engaged throughout the chapters that provide irrefutable evidence of women's essential roles in the reception and implementation of the Protestant confessions. An important voice comes from women who defended their right to profess Catholic faith. Thematic articles enhance the analysis of the roles, experiences, and contributions of individual women in different contexts and positions vis-à-vis reformation teachings. Women stand out as writers, theologians, historians, biblical interpreters, publishers, hymnwriters, rulers, pastoral care givers, defenders of justice, "heretics," rebels, midwives, mothers, and friends. The tone of the volume is scholarly but invites a broad spectrum of readers who have varying levels of background knowledge. It is especially suitable as a textbook or as a reference guide in different disciplines (reformation studies, church history, theological history, gender scholarship, early modern and sixteenth-century studies; and language studies).

Book excerpt: Chart the development of feminist approaches and theories of interpretation during the period when women first joined the ranks of biblical scholars This collection of essays on feminist biblical studies in the twentieth century seeks to explore four areas of inquiry demanding further investigation.

The second section introduces, reviews, and discusses the hermeneutic religious spaces created by feminist biblical studies. The third segment discusses academic methods of reading and interpretation that dismantle androcentric language and kyriarchal authority. The fourth section returns to the first with work that transgresses academic boundaries in order to exemplify the transforming, inspiring, and institutionalizing feminist work that has been and is being done to change religious mindsets of domination and to enable wo/men to engage in critical readings of the Bible. Features: Essays examine the rupture or break in the malestream reception history of the Bible Exploration of the term feminism in different social-cultural and theoretical-religious locations Authors from around the world present research and future directions for research challenging the next generation of feminist interpreters

Book excerpt: Stories of women of peace, justice and rights, who have distinguished themselves in a world ruled by men. Women who have made a decisive contribution to the vindication of rights or the drafting of legal treaties, some of which are in force to this day. Sometimes promoters, at others formidable supporters, all have worked without reserve, with the courage of those who never stop believing. Opposed and hindered, they have nevertheless managed to impose themselves with the strength of their ideas, achieving, in the end, prizes and recognition. Their stories are usually little-known, but it is especially their humanity that makes them role models. The book reports their captivating personal, human and professional experiences, all lived in the advancement of human progress. To this day, our society is indebted to their battles and their victories.

Download or read book The Theatre Couple in Early Modern Italy written by Serena Laiena and published by Rutgers University Press. This book was released on 2023-12-15 with total page 165 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Who were the first celebrity couples? How was their success forged? Which forces influenced their self-fashioning and marketing strategies? These questions are at the core of this study, which looks at the birth of a phenomenon, that of the couple in show business, with a focus on the promotional strategies devised by two professional performers: Giovan Battista Andreini (1576–1654) and Virginia Ramponi (1583–ca.1631). This book examines their artistic path – a deliberately crafted and mutually beneficial joint career – and links it to the historical, social, and cultural context of post-Tridentine Italy. Rooted in a broad research field, encompassing theatre history, Italian studies, celebrity studies, gender studies, and performance studies, The Theatre Couple in Early Modern Italy revises the conventional view of the Italian diva, investigates the deployment of Catholic devotion as a marketing tool, and argues for the importance of the couple system in the history of Commedia dell’Arte, a system that continues to shape celebrity today.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Eva, Sara, Rebecca, Rachele, Lia, Rut, Noemi, Ester, Giuditta, Marta, Maria, la Maddalena, la Samaritana... Nell’Antico e nel Nuovo Testamento non compaiono solo figure maschili ma anche tante donne. Sono fondatrici di stirpi, profetesse, donne qualunque che si trovano però a svolgere un ruolo cruciale, memorabile nella storia della loro comunità e della loro religione. Sono donne che hanno la forza di essere protagoniste del proprio destino. Osano sfidare Dio, come Eva, la madre dei viventi, che trasgredisce l’ordine divino e si assume la responsabilità di una vita autonoma; osano opporsi all’autorità maschile, come Miriam che rivendica il proprio ruolo di profetessa con Mosè, o come Giuditta che uccide il nemico Oloferne; osano anteporre alle leggi umane principi superiori, come le levatrici che salvano Mosè contravvenendo ai decreti del Faraone, o come Ester che aiuta il suo popolo sfidando l’impero persiano; osano piegare le leggi maschili a favore dei diritti delle donne, come fanno Tamar e Rut. Compiono scelte ardite ma sono ugualmente difese e accolte da Dio. Oltre a loro ci sono poi donne che hanno interpretato i racconti biblici, teologhe che hanno letto diversamente i testi sacri tramandandone un’altra versione. La presunta inferiorità femminile ricavata dall’interpretazione di certi passi della Bibbia è servita soprattutto a legittimare discriminazione e subalternità della donna, ma non è scontato che questo ne sia l’autentico e unico senso. Adriana Valerio, tramite una lettura di genere delle vicende di alcune figure femminili della Bibbia, dimostra infatti che la si può leggere liberandola dalle categorie patriarcali e riconsegnando alle donne la dignità e il messaggio salvifico rivolto anche a loro dalla fede cristiana.

Download or read book The Limits of Identity: Early Modern Venice, Dalmatia, and the Representation of Difference written by Karen-edis Barzman and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2017-04-18 with total page 389 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book considers the production of collective identity in Venice (Christian, civic-minded, anti-tyrannical), which turned on distinctions drawn in various fields of representation from painting, sculpture, print, and performance to classified correspondence. Dismemberment and decapitation bore a heavy burden in this regard, given as indices of an arbitrary violence ascribed to Venice’s long-time adversary, “the infidel Turk.” The book also addresses the recuperation of violence in Venetian discourse about maintaining civic order and waging crusade. Finally, it examines mobile populations operating in the porous limits between Venetian Dalmatia and Ottoman Bosnia and the distinctions they disrupted between “Venetian” and “Turk” until their settlement on farmland of the Venetian state. This occurred in the eighteenth century with the closing of the borderlands, thresholds of difference against which early modern “Venetian-ness” was repeatedly measured and affirmed.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Per "piccole" non intendiamo inutili o insignificanti. Ma le "piccole donne" sono figure femminili, cosiddette minori, che appaiono però ben evidenti nelle pagine della scrittura. Rappresentano, in qualche modo, "i miei piccoli" citati da Gesù, le "piccole cose" indicate dal profeta Zaccaria o quelle in cui il Signore ci vuole trovare fedeli. Sono, cioè, quelli che potremmo definire "i dettagli di Dio": i piccoli ricami, le piccole attenzioni, le cose minute che però contano rispetto al valore d'insieme determinato dal Signore. La fanciulla d'Israele, l'ignota vedova di Sarepta, Lidia, Febe e altre donne che hanno operato "dietro le quinte" e non da "prime donne", prive di fama agli occhi degli uomini ma preziose a quelli di Dio. Brian H. Edwards è un pastore residente in Gran Bretagna, è autore di molti libri di stampo teologico e apologetico nonché di alcune biografie bibliche. Nel suo ampio ministerio ha predicato e insegnato oltre che in Inghilterra anche in altri paesi esteri.

Download or read book Torah written by Irmtraud Fischer and published by SBL Press. This book was released on 2011-11-10 with total page 501 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume is the first in The Bible and Women series. It presents a history of the reception of the Bible as embedded in Western cultural history with a special focus on the history of women and issues of gender. It introduces the series, explaining the choice of the Hebrew canon in connection with the Christian tradition and preparing the way for a changed view of women throughout the series. The contributors explore the gendered significance of the canonical writings as well as the process of their canonization and the social-historical background of ancient Near Eastern women’s lives, both of which play key roles in the series. Turning to the Pentateuch, essays address a variety of texts and issues still relevant today, such as creation and male-female identity in the image of God, women’s roles in the genealogies of the Pentateuch and in salvation history, the rights and responsibilities of women according to the Hebrew Bible's legal and ritual texts, and how archaeology and iconography can illustrate the texts of the Torah. Contributors include Sophie Démare-Lafont, Dorothea Erbele-Küster, Karin Finsterbusch, Irmtraud Fischer, Mercedes García Bachmann, Thomas Hieke, Carol Meyers, Mercedes Navarro Puerto, Jorunn Økland, Ursula Rapp, Donatella Scaiola, Silvia Schroer, Jopie Siebert-Hommes, and Adriana Valerio.

Download or read book Women in the Biblical World written by Mayer I. Gruber and published by Scarecrow Press. This book was released on 1995-11-14 with total page 298 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Women's history" has emerged as an independent discipline because women have been written out of the history of Western civilization as commonly taught and researched. Likewise, feminist interpretation of the Bible (often called feminist hermeneutics) grew out of the realization that conscious and unconscious sexism had often led scholars and students to ignore and even obscure the substantial role of women and womanhood in Hebrew Scripture. Women in the Biblical World provides scholars, clergy, seminarians, college students, and others with access to books and articles—both technical and semi-popular—that shed light on the role of women in Hebrew Scripture. The guide demonstrates that the study of women and womanhood in the biblical world has assumed special importance during the two great periods of struggle for women's rights—the 1890s and the last quarter of the 20th century. However, this guide also demonstrates that the public role of women and womanhood in the ancient Near East was so great that scholarship has never been able to ignore it.

Download or read book Pastoral Care and Monasticism in Latin Christianity and Japanese Buddhism (ca. 800-1650) written by Toshio Ohnuki, Gert Melville, Yuichi Akae, Kazuhisa Takeda and published by LIT Verlag Münster. This book was released on with total page 282 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Monasticism has a special position in the history of pastoral care. It produced innovations in various aspects of pastoral care despite, or more precisely, because of its isolation in legal or social terms from the secular world. The thirteen papers contained in this volume will reveal that there was a great variety in the ways pastoral care continued to be practised by monasticism, depending on time, space, and the nature of each religious order. Adopting a comparative approach, their historical and geographical range of investigation is not limited to medieval Europe but expands to the Americas and even to Japan in the early Modern Age. This volume bases on a conference held on 1 and 2 March 2019 at Okayama University, Japan, as part of the close collaboration between a Japanese research group on Christian/Buddhist religious movements and the Research Project "Monasteries in the High Middle Ages: Innovation Laboratories for European Life Designs and Regulatory Models" of the Saxon and the Heidelberg Academies of Sciences and Humanities, as well as the Research Center for Comparative History of Religious Orders (FOVOG, Dresden).
