Book Synopsis Soldiers of God in a Secular World by : Sarah Shortall
Download or read book Soldiers of God in a Secular World written by Sarah Shortall and published by Harvard University Press. This book was released on 2021-10-19 with total page 353 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A revelatory account of the nouvelle thologie, a clerical movement that revitalized the Catholic ChurchÕs role in twentieth-century French political life. Secularism has been a cornerstone of French political culture since 1905, when the republic formalized the separation of church and state. At times the barrier of secularism has seemed impenetrable, stifling religious actors wishing to take part in political life. Yet in other instances, secularism has actually nurtured movements of the faithful. Soldiers of God in a Secular World explores one such case, that of the nouvelle thologie, or new theology. Developed in the interwar years by Jesuits and Dominicans, the nouvelle thologie reimagined the ChurchÕs relationship to public life, encouraging political activism, engaging with secular philosophy, and inspiring doctrinal changes adopted by the Second Vatican Council in the 1960s. Nouveaux thologiens charted a path between the old alliance of throne and altar and secularismÕs demand for the privatization of religion. Envisioning a Church in but not of the public sphere, Catholic thinkers drew on theological principles to intervene in political questions while claiming to remain at armÕs length from politics proper. Sarah Shortall argues that this Òcounter-politicsÓ was central to the mission of the nouveaux thologiens: by recoding political statements in the ostensibly apolitical language of doctrine, priests were able to enter into debates over fascism and communism, democracy and human rights, colonialism and nuclear war. This approach found its highest expression during the Second World War, when the nouveaux thologiens led the spiritual resistance against Nazism. Claiming a powerful public voice, they collectively forged a new role for the Church amid the momentous political shifts of the twentieth century.

Book excerpt: In Anthony Pickup's Darkness: The Corruption of Sarah Jane, the limits of how much the human mind can take before madness takes over is brilliantly and eerily depicted. Sarah Jane Flint is born into a happy and religious family in 1830. Her father is gainfully employed and her mother and sister consider little Sarah another blessing to the family. But life deals Sarah a blow when, at the age of nine, her mother suddenly dies. Years pass and Sarah's sister marries and moves far away, leaving Sarah to take care of their ailing father. When the money runs out, father and daughter are separated and are forced to live in a parish workhouse where Sarah will soon learn what evil is in human form -- Mrs. Leach, an abusive supervisor who mistreats her and steals the only thing Sarah has left from her mother, a family locket. But Sarah has her revenge and, over the next few years, an unimaginable fury is unleashed that Sarah cannot and will not contain. Where is this God she put her faith in so many years ago and why did he desert her? Pickup's novel is a terrifying web of murder, deception and explores what happens to the psyche when it is broken and falls into madness. What happens to the soul when it is destroyed?

Book Synopsis A Great Sacrifice by : James G. Mendez
Download or read book A Great Sacrifice written by James G. Mendez and published by Fordham Univ Press. This book was released on 2019-02-05 with total page 413 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Offers readers new insight into the lives of African American men and women from the North in the era of the Civil War.” —Liz Regosin, Charles A. Dana Professor of History, St. Lawrence University A Great Sacrifice is an in-depth analysis of the effects of the Civil War on northern black families carried out using letters from northern black women—mothers, wives, sisters, and female family friends—addressed to a number of Union military officials. Collectively, the letters give a voice to the black family members left on the northern homefront. Through their explanations and requests, readers obtain a greater apprehension of the struggles African American families faced during the war, and their conditions as the war progressed. The original letters that were received by government agencies, as well as many of the copies of the letters sent in response, are held by the National Archives in Washington, D.C. This study is unique because it examines the effects of the war specifically on northern black families. Most other studies on African Americans during the Civil War focused almost exclusively on the soldiers. “In this deeply researched and revealing book, James G. Mendez seeks to recover the experience of northern black soldiers and their families during the Civil War era in order to discover the ways they engaged the governments of their day both to recognize and respect their service and sacrifice during the war and to count the costs northern blacks paid out in impoverished families, wartime casualties, and unfulfilled promises . . . Mendez’s book deserves our attention and appreciation.” —American Historical Review
