Book Synopsis Widow's Weeds and Weeping Veils by : Bernadette Loeffel-Atkins
Download or read book Widow's Weeds and Weeping Veils written by Bernadette Loeffel-Atkins and published by Gettysburg Publishing. This book was released on 2012-04-01 with total page 57 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During the 19th century, death shadowed daily life. A high infant mortality rate, poor sanitation, risk during childbirth, poisons, ignorance, and war kept 19th-century Americans busy practicing the ritual of mourning. The Victorian era in both Europe and America saw these rituals elevated to an art form expressing not only grief, but also religious feeling, social obligation, and even mourning fashion. Complete with period illustrations, Widow's Weeds and Weeping Veils explores how Victorians viewed death and dying as a result of the profound historical events of their time. This concise, informative work is ideal for students of Victorian-era culture and Civil War enthusiasts.
Book Synopsis Female Mourning and Tragedy in Medieval and Renaissance English Drama by : Katharine Goodland
Download or read book Female Mourning and Tragedy in Medieval and Renaissance English Drama written by Katharine Goodland and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-03-02 with total page 468 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Grieving women in early modern English drama, this study argues, recall not only those of Classical tragedy, but also, and more significantly, the lamenting women of medieval English drama, especially the Virgin Mary. Looking at the plays of Shakespeare, Kyd, and Webster, this book presents a new perspective on early modern drama grounded upon three original interrelated points. First, it explores how the motif of the mourning woman on the early modern stage embodies the cultural trauma of the Reformation in England. Second, the author here brings to light the extent to which the figures of early modern drama recall those of the recent medieval past. Finally, Goodland addresses how these representations embody actual mourning practices that were viewed as increasingly disturbing after the Reformation. Female Mourning and Tragedy in Medieval and Renaissance English Drama synthesizes and is relevant to several areas of recent scholarly interest, including the performance of gender, the history of emotion, studies of death and mourning, and the cultural trauma of the Reformation.

Book Synopsis The Third Gender and Aelfric's Lives of Saints by : Rhonda L McDaniel

This book was released on 2018-03-31 with total page 307 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In The Third Gender, McDaniel addresses the idea of the "third gender" in early hagiography and Latin treatises on virginity and then examines Aelfric's treatment of gender in his translations of Latin monastic Lives for his non-monastic audiences. She first investigates patristic ideas about a "third gender" by describing this concept within the theoretical frameworks of monasticism and then turns to creating a historical and theological cultural context within which to locate an interpretation of Aelfric's portrayals of male and female saints.

Book Synopsis Reimagining History from an Indigenous Perspective by : Joyce M. Szabo
Download or read book Reimagining History from an Indigenous Perspective written by Joyce M. Szabo and published by University of New Mexico Press. This book was released on 2022 with total page 120 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Few contemporary artists before the 1990s explored the negative impact of the Spanish in the Southwest, but unreflective celebrations of the Columbus Quincentennial brought about portrayals of a more complicated legacy of Columbus's arrival in the Americas--especially by Indigenous artists. Through a series of etchings, Floyd Solomon of Laguna and Zuni heritage undertook a visual recounting of Pueblo history using Indigenous knowledge positioned to reimagine a history that is known largely from non-Native records. While Solomon originally envisioned more than forty etchings, he ultimately completed just twenty. From nightmarish visions of the Spanish that preceded their arrival to the subsequent return of the Spanish and their continuing effects on the Pueblo people, Solomon provides a powerful visual record. These insightful, probing etchings are included in this important full-color volume showcasing Solomon's work and legacy. In Reimagining History from an Indigenous Perspective, Joyce M. Szabo positions Solomon among his contemporaries, making this vibrant artist and his remarkable vision broadly available to audiences both familiar with his work and those seeing it for the first time.
Book Synopsis Stakes Is High by : Michael W. Waters
Download or read book Stakes Is High written by Michael W. Waters and published by Chalice Press. This book was released on 2017-02-07 with total page 120 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What happens when a people can take no more injustice rained down upon their sons and daughters? When each new travesty echoes the cries of ancestors killed for the color of their skin? How do a people rediscover hope? And how do they use that new-found hope as momentum and strength for change? In his powerful new book Stakes Is High, pastor, activist, and community leader Michael W. Waters blends hip-hop lyricism and social justice leadership, creating an urgent voice demanding that America listen to the suffering if it hopes to redeem its soul. Weaving stories from centuries of persecution against the backdrop of today's urban prophets on the radio and in the streets, Waters speaks on behalf of an awakened generation raging against racism - yet fueled by the promise of a just future. Through the pain and hard but holy work, you will hear the call to join the faithful struggle for racial justice.
