Download or read book Mary Lyon and the Mount Holyoke Missionaries written by Amanda Porterfield and published by Oxford University Press, USA. This book was released on 1997 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: American women played in important part in Protestant foreign missionary work from its early days at the beginning of the nineteenth century, enabling them not only to disseminate religious principles but also to break into public life and create expanded opportunities for themselves and other women. No institution was more closely associated with women missionaries that Mount Holyoke College. This book examines Mount Holyoke founder Mary Lyon and the missionary women trained by her. Porterfield sees Lyon and her students as representative of dominant trends in American missionary thought before the Civil War. She focuses on how their activities in several parts of the world--particularly northwest Persia, Maharashtra in western India, and Natal in southeast Africa--and shows that while their primary goals remained elusive, antebellum missionary women made major contributions to cultural change and the development of new cultures.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is part of a series on historical female figures. It features Mary Lyon, an American educationalist born in 1797. She is best known for pioneering women's education and founding Mount Holyoke and Wheaton Colleges. These were the first all women seminaries devoted to the empowerment of young women and the creation of female leaders in a male-dominated world. In her words, when you choose your fields of labor go where nobody else is willing to go. Lyon continues to inspire women today and is still celebrated for her strength and determination in the field of women's emancipation.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Life of Mary Lyon Every book has many authors; the title-page names but one. To all those who in countless ways have furthered the making of this book, I gratefully acknowledge my debt: men and women who knew Miss Lyon personally; their sons and daughters; alumnae of Mount Holyoke and people holding no affiliation with it, some of them concerned with other schools; members of the college faculty who throughout the work have given me so wise a seconding. The warm helpfulness which Miss Lyon evoked in life has met her biographer at every turn. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Life Story of Mary Lyon: Founder of Mount Holyoke College It has been wisely said, that the greatest statues require least drapery. Certainly, the men and women who have been most useful require least eulogy. The object of this sketch is to give in fewest words the essence of a noble life. Miss Lyon's work can be better seen, from this standpoint, in the History of Time than from any former one, and now, as her child, The Mount Holyoke Seminary is rising as a Phœnix from its ashes, it seems desirable that we should review it. President Hitchcock, of Amherst College, assisted by several ladies who had intimately known her, prepared a memoir of Miss Lyon soon after her death. This has been widely circulated and highly prized in America, in England and in some of the islands of the sea. The American Tract Society, in 1858, published a review of this work.

Download or read book A Most Remarkable Family written by Michael Hewitt and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2014-06-06 with total page 311 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On a cold day on the thirtieth of January 1649 in London, an anonymous executioner severed the head of King Charles I of England. The watching crowds had very mixed feelings about this regicide, but Oliver Cromwell’s troops kept order, and eventually the crowd dispersed, stunned by this momentous event in English history, which left the country in turmoil. Amongst the crowd that day were a father of fifty-nine years and his three sons. This moment in history was to change their lives. Who were this family? Where had they come from? What would become of them? The answer to these questions would lead us back to King Robert the Bruce of Scotland, forward to our own Queen of the United Kingdom and the Commonwealth, and would also greatly influence much of American history.
