Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: America stands to-day among the greatest and most progressive of thenations of the earth; and as the law of nations from earliest timeshas been the decline and fall of one, as another rises to prëeminence,it would seem that this great land of ours is fast soaring towards thehighest pinnacle of national attainment.If a nation is great, it is made so by the men who make and enforce itslaws, who fill its positions of trust, who manipulate its finances, andwho prove worthy citizens of the land of their birth or adoption.And who are responsible for the men?Are not the women, the wives and mothers of the nation, the bearers ofthis great burden of responsibility?No nation has ever risen, or can rise above the level of its women, andin no other country is this truth more obviously demonstrated than in ourown beloved and favored land.Reasoning thus, we find that the American woman not only holds a highposition of trust, but it is conceded by all who know her, that she fillsit worthily, and is capable of meeting the varied demands upon her withrare tact and skill.There are no women in the world to-day who are more truly the cynosureof all eyes, than are our own. They stand in the glare of public life inthe highest circles of their own land, and are closely allied to royaltyabroad, participating in, or presiding at, many of the functions ofalmost every foreign court, and everywhere the homage which is their dueis freely accorded them.There are two attributes of the American woman which are undeniablypredominant in her nature, and these are _adaptability_ and_individuality_.They are displayed by the members of all ranks and classes, but probablythe twenty-five women who form the coterie of "First Ladies of the Land"in our republican court at Washington, have had as great, if not greater,opportunities for exercising these qualities than any who have enteredonly into court life abroad."Noblesse oblige" is true in all stations of life, whether it be thenobility of honorable living or of high social birth, but in royalcircles there is a code of etiquette which is enforced from generation togeneration, just as royal sons and daughters are born to royal parents,and so its followers abide by its mandates as a matter of course. In ademocratic country like America, no such rule obtains, for the childrenof a President of the United States, after their father's term expires,may relapse into social inconspicuousness and seldom appear before thepublic, instead of, as in royalty, inheriting their father's officialgreatness.We have but one instance of the son of a President following in hisfather's footsteps, and only one where a grandson did likewise. The wifeof a President may have been born in affluence and social prominence, orshe may have passed her early years in the humblest environment, as wasthe case with a number of the women who have presided at the White House,but in every instance the duties of hostess have been faithfully andcreditably discharged, while natural ease, grace and tact, combined withthis wonderful power of adaptation, have rendered the hospitality of theWhite House unquestionably refined, and marked by the highest breeding.Some of the women who have held this exalted position have been calledto it while little more than young girls, and others have assumed itsresponsibilities and obligations late in life, yet all have upheld thedignity of the nation of whose social life they were, for the time being,the highest exponents.Can this always be said of the life at foreign courts?

Book Synopsis Women and the Value of Suffering by : Kristine M. Rankka
Download or read book Women and the Value of Suffering written by Kristine M. Rankka and published by Liturgical Press. This book was released on 1998 with total page 276 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Kristine Rankka has produced a masterpiece--an insightful analysis of modern feminist interpretations of 'radical' or 'tragic' suffering. Here is a mature work, comprehensive in its breadth, compelling in its argument, moving in its palpable sensitivity, poetic and graceful in its articulation. By invoking the category of the 'tragic, ' Rankka proposes a mystical-political spirituality to move reflection on suffering from the private, to the communal, interdependent realm. Rankka's _Women and the Value of Suffering_ is a creative retrieval of a conversation among women, long in progress, about the meaning of life's suffering. It is eminently readable and thoroughly enriching " George E. Griener, S.J. Academic dean Jesuit School of Theology at Berkeley
Book Synopsis This Assembly of Believers by : Bryan Cones
Download or read book This Assembly of Believers written by Bryan Cones and published by SCM Press. This book was released on 2020-11-30 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Among the symbols with which the liturgy deals, none is more important than this assembly of believers.” This claim made in the 1970s forces the local church to consider those within its congregation, and recognise the gifts and challenges of difference within the church community. In 'This Assembly of Believers' Bryan Cones seeks to take seriously the pastoral context of a congregation, recognising the physical ability, gender and sexuality of those who make up the congregation. Starting each chapter with their lived experience, Cones poses important questions of the liturgy in light of these experiences before realigning the liturgy to demonstrate the positive theological significance of the marginalised within the congregation.

Download or read book THE HISTORY OF WOMEN'S SUFFRAGE - Complete 6 Volumes (Illustrated) written by Harriot Stanton Blatch and published by Good Press. This book was released on 2024-01-15 with total page 4392 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Experience the American feminism in its core. Learn about the decades long fight, about the endurance and the strength needed to continue the battle against persistent indifference and injustice. Go back in time and get to know the founders and the followers, the characters of all the strong women involved in the movement. Find out what was the spark which started it all and kept the flame going. Learn about the organization, witness the backdoor conversations and discussions, read their personal correspondence, speeches and planned tactics. Learn about the relationship between great activists and what caused the fraction. See the movement in its full light and learn what it took to obtain most basic civil rights. Know your history! This six volumes edition covers the women's suffrage movement from 1848 to 1922. Originally envisioned as a modest publication that would take only four months to write, it evolved into a work of more than 5700 pages written over a period of 41 years and was completed in 1922, long after the deaths of its visionary authors and editors, Elizabeth Cady Stanton and Susan B. Anthony. However, realizing that the project was unlikely to make a profit, Anthony had already bought the rights from the other authors. As a sole owner, she published the books herself and donated many copies to libraries and people of influence. Elizabeth Cady Stanton (1815–1902) was an American suffragist, social activist, abolitionist, and leading figure of the early women's rights movement. Susan B. Anthony (1820–1906) was an American suffragist, social reformer and women's rights activist. Harriot Stanton Blatch (1856-1940) was a suffragist and daughter of Elizabeth Stanton. Matilda Gage (1826–1898) was a suffragist, a Native American rights activist and an abolitionist. Ida H. Harper (1851–1931) was a prominent figure in the United States women's suffrage movement. She was an American author, journalist and biographer of Susan B. Anthony.
