Download or read book Mary Ward: First Sister of Feminism written by Sydney Thorne and published by Pen and Sword History. This book was released on 2021-10-31 with total page 291 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The little-known story of the woman who walked 1,500 miles to Rome to challenge the pope in 1621. Four centuries ago, an Englishwoman completed an astonishing walk to Rome. A Catholic, Mary Ward had already defied the authorities in her native country. In 1621 she walked across Europe to ask the Pope to allow her to set up schools for girls. “There is no such difference between men and women that women may not do great things,” she said. But Mary’s vision of equality between men and women angered the Church, and the pope threw her into prison. Her story is not only fascinating in its own right—it also shines a refreshingly new light on the Tudor/Stuart era. Mary’s uncles are the Gunpowder Plotters. Her sponsors are archdukes, prince-archbishops, and the emperor of the Holy Roman Empire. In Rome she spars with Pope Urban VIII and the Roman Inquisition, just as they are also dealing with the troublemaker Galileo. As the story sweeps from Yorkshire to Rome, from Vienna and Munich to Prague, and back to England, we see Mary dodging pirates in the Channel, witch hunts in Germany, and the plague in Italy. We see travelers crossing the Alps, and prisoners smuggling out letters written in invisible lemon juice. Ranging from the resplendent courts in Brussels and Munich to the siege of York in the English Civil War, this biography is a remarkable portrait of seventeenth-century European life.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Critical introductions to a range of literary topics and genres. The Literature of Love is designed to introduce students to one of the central themes in literature. Focusing first on different types and aspects of love - physical, emotional, spiritual - it then offers a chronological coverage, aiming to illustrate ways in which attitudes to the representation of love in literature have evolved from Chaucer to the present time. Other sections of the book examine particular genres such as the love sonnet, the love letter and 'romantic' fiction; and the differing reception of this literature over time is also considered. The book includes extracts from a range of authors.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "All but one of the stories are set in Alabama. They deal with dramatic turning points in the lives of people who happen to be southerners, many juxtaposed between Old South sensibility and manners and New South modernity and expectations. Among these characters is a new widow uncomforted by well-meaning, proselytizing Christians; a middle-aged waitress in love with the town "catch"; a bedridden belle dependent upon her black nurse; a "special" young man in a newspaper shop; a young faculty wife who attempts generosity with a lower-class neighbor; and a lawyer caught in the dilemma of race issues."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A unique and inspirational Pride and Prejudice sequel that will resonate with all readers who can relate to Mary Bennet's determination to live according to God's wishes Written by a Franciscan nun, this is a sympathetic tale of the middle Bennet sister from Pride and Prejudice. Pious Mary Bennet tries to do her duty in the world as she thinks God envisions it. Initially believing (mistakenly) that her sister Elizabeth married well only in order to provide for her sisters, Mary is happy to be relieved of the obligation to marry at all so that she can continue her faithful works. But she begins to have second thoughts after further studying marriage through her sisters' experiences as well as spending time with two young men. One is a splendid young buck whose determined courtship must have ulterior motives; the other is a kindly, serious young clergyman whose friendship Mary values more and more. One day she realizes that God very much made man and woman to be together...but which is the man for her?

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Here is an inspiring story that has been muted over the past 400 years. For much of this time, Mary Ward's role in changing the place of women in the Church was suppressed by Church authorities with their own unshakeable version of what women could (or could not) achieve. This remarkable Englishwoman, who began her company of sisters in 1609-11, today has followers in large cities and remote villages, in schools, universities and parishes and in justice networks, retreat centres and welfare services on every continent. Yet this was a woman who was ridiculed and imprisoned for pursuing her basic belief that women could both be religious and work to build the faith of their neighbours. It was not until 1909 that the Catholic Church finally allowed her sisters to name her as founder of the Institute. Christine Burke's volume celebrates the life of a woman of great faith and insight - always loyal to the church, resourceful, courageous and determined, a woman who never gave up on her own truth. The author, Loreto Sister, Dr Christine Burke IBVM has taught theology in Australia for a number of years and is at present in a senior leadership position in her Congregation.
