‎Medieval Holy Women in the Christian Tradition c.1100-c.1500 9782503531809‎

‎, Brepols Publishers, 2010 hardcover XI 748 p., 3 b/w ill., 7 b/w line art, 156 x 234 mm Languages: English, Latin, French . ISBN 9782503531809.‎

‎The first comprehensive survey of the major - but much neglected - contribution made by holy women to the religious culture of the later Middle Ages. Medieval Holy Women in the Christian Tradition offers the first wide-ranging study of the remarkable women who contributed to the efflorescence of female piety and visionary experience in Europe between 1100 and 1500. This volume offers essays by prominent scholars in the field which extend the boundaries of our previous knowledge and understanding of medieval holy women. While some essays provide new perspectives on the familiar names of the unofficial canon of mulieres sanctae, many others bring into the spotlight women less familiar now, but influential in their own time and richly deserving of scholarly attention. The five general essays establish a context for understanding the issues affecting female religious witness in the later Middle Ages. The geographical arrangement of the volume allows the reader to develop an awareness of the particular cultural and religious forces in seven different regions and to recognize how these influenced the writing and reception of the holy women of that area. Seventeen major figures have essays devoted exclusively to each of them; in addition, the survey chapters on each region introduce the reader to many more. The extensive bibliographies which follow each chapter encourage further reading and study. Alastair Minnis was Director of the Centre for Medieval Studies and Head of the Department of English at the University of York, and is currently Douglas Tracy Smith Professor of English at Yale University. A Fellow of the Medieval Academy of America and of the English Association, he is the author of six monographs and the editor or co-editor of fifteen further volumes. Rosalynn Voaden (D.Phil., University of York, UK) is the author of God?s Words, Women?s Voices: The Discernment of Spirits in the Writing of Late-Medieval Women Visionaries, and is the editor or co-editor of several volumes in the field. She was a Research Fellow at St Anne?s College, Oxford, and is currently Associate Professor of English at Arizona State University.‎

‎Very Good French Original wrappers. Roy. 8vo. (24 x 16 cm). In French. [v], 163, [1] p. Chippings on extremities of cover, rubbed on spine, overall a good copy. First edition of this scarce book titled in English "The Legal Status of Women in the Law of Islam", written by Al-Yafi who was the Prime Minister of Lebanon serving twelve times between 1938 and 1969, and at the forefront of the struggle to give women the right to vote, which he was able to achieve with his cabinet in power in 1952. Abdallah Al-Yafi is the first Arab to receive a PhD from the Sorbonne University, where he wrote his thesis about women's rights in Islam. The thesis subject was "The Legal Status of Women in the Law of Islam" (French: La Condition Privée de la Femme dans le Droit de l'Islam). Drawing from Quranic decrees and Islamic principles, he made a case about how women are supposed to be allotted more rights in society. Al-Yafi believed that the empowerment of women was crucial for building a stronger society, equality providing a steadier base. These thoughts, when expressed in the 1920s, had quite an 'avant-garde' ring to conservative Muslim ears: they were not always welcome with wide open arms or minds. Later on in his political life, Abdallah Al-Yafi's political opponents brandished his thesis as a weapon of defamation to tarnish his reputation. According to them, he was not a "righteous Muslim" but a French minion who had given in to the French authorities-the colonial mandate authority in Lebanon at the time-in blaspheming the Islamic religion in reward of a "Doctorat d'État". These were aimed at ruining the honest image that he so carefully cultivated throughout his life.‎

‎Abusaleh Shariff‎

‎Fertility Transition in Rural South India [Hardcover]‎

‎THIS work reports the socio-economic correlates of the recent fertility decline in the rural areas of south India. After an in-depth discussion of the social and economic structure of the research area the book explores the aspects of differential fertility, effects of changing family structure, and intra-family relationship on fertility and pattern of fertility decision-making. A micro-demographic research methodology was used to undertake this investigation in a cluster of four villages about 65 km. away from Bangalore. A beginning of fertility decline in this area was found running parallel to profound economic and social changes which have occurred especially since independence. Besides an important effect of declining infant and childhood mortality, the fertility decline was a function of material fertility associated with changes in the intrinsic behaviour of individuals. The behaviour changes were due to recent modification in intra-and inter-family relationships-the unilinearly extended family system appears to have given way to a bilateral extended system in which affines (wife’s side relatives) are playing a greater role in decision-making. The young are assuming decision-making responsibilities relatively early and women have progressed to a higher level of participation in the family and fertility decision making. The pattern is that such changes are more frequent in the large heterogeneous villages while the smaller and remote villages are yet to experience these forces of social change. A moderate increase in literacy, an exposure to urban influence and the growing importance of monetization have enabled villagers to think and act more independently than in the past and this has made them more secular. The study is an important reference work for academics and students of demography sociology, family welfare and rural development. Planners and development workers will find invaluable fact and figures to help in their policy-making. About The Author:- Dr. Abusaleh Shariff has been working as an Associate Professor in the Population Research Unit of the Institute for Social and Economic Change, Banglore since 1985. He has a Ph.d. degree from the Australian National University, Canberra, Australia, and a Master's degree in Economics from Bangalore University. He served as a member of the research staff in the India Population Project, Karnataka, between 1974 and 1980. Dr. Shariff has participated and presented several papers in many national and international seminars and conferences, and is author of a number of papers. His more recent works include 'Child Survival: Some Cultural Factors Associated with Morbidity and Mortality in South India', 'Human Organization' and 'The Changing Family System: Woman's Status and Fertility Decision Making'.

‎ACKER, Kathy‎

‎Hannibal Lecter, My Father‎

‎Semiotext(e) / Columbia University, (New York) 1991. 148, (2) pages. Original softcover binding 18x11,5 m‎

‎* First edition. A collection of smaller previously published stories and essays ----- Kathy Acker (* 18. April 1947 in New York City; ? 30. November 1997 in Tijuana, Mexiko) war eine amerikanische Schriftstellerin. Ihr erstes literarisches Werk hieß Black Tarantula. Unter diesem Pseudonym trat Kathy Acker zuweilen auch auf. Sie begeisterte sich für die Arbeiten von William S. Burroughs und für die Ideen und Texte des Antipsychiaters Ronald D. Laing. Kathy Ackers Ruf als Queen of Punk beruhte einerseits auf formalen und inhaltlichen Schwerpunkten ihrer literarischen Arbeit, andererseits aber auch auf der Stilisierung ihrer Person. Die erste Arbeit der Autorin erschien Mitte der 1970er vor dem Hintergrund des damals aufkeimenden literarischen Untergrunds in New York City. Ihre ersten Werke wurden durch ihre eigenen mehrmonatigen Erfahrungen als Stripperin grundlegend beeinflusst. Acker blieb lange an den Rändern des literarischen Establishments und wurde bis Mitte der 1980er Jahre nur von kleinen alternativen Verlagen veröffentlicht, was der Autorin den Ruf einer literarischen Terroristin verlieh. 1984 wurde mit Blood and Guts in High School erstmals eines ihrer Werke im Vereinigten Königreich veröffentlicht. Acker schrieb in der folgenden Zeit eine bemerkenswerte Anzahl von Erzählungen, die fast alle im Verlag Grove Press erschienen. Weiterhin schrieb sie Beiträge für Magazine und Anthologien, unter anderem veröffentlichte sie in RE/Search, Angel Exhaust und Rapid Eye. 1997 erschien Kathy Ackers Buch Pussy König der Piraten (englisch Pussy, King of the Pirates). Das Buch ist die Geschichte von Piratinnen auf der Suche nach einem legendären Schatz, der ihrem Piratinnendasein so etwas wie Sinn und ihnen selbst die Freiheit gibt, etwas anderes als Piratinnen zu sein. Wie in vielen ihrer Bücher treten darin historische, mythische und reale Personen auf wie etwa Antonin Artaud, Antigone und König Kreon. Mit der Band Mekons nahm Kathy Acker eine CD auf, die denselben Titel wie das Buch trägt. Eine weitere CD von Kathy Acker mit dem Titel Redoing Childhood erschien im Jahr 1999. Zum Ende ihres Lebens publizierte Acker auch in klassischen Massenmedien wie zum Beispiel mehrere Artikel in der britischen Zeitung The Guardian, darunter ein Interview mit den Spice Girls, welches wenige Monate vor ihrem Tod erschien. Kathy Acker starb 1997 im Alter von 50 Jahren an Brustkrebs. Ihr Nachlass liegt im Englischen Seminar der Universität zu Köln. Er umfasst Teile ihrer Bibliothek, Manuskripte, Schallplatten und persönlichen Gegenstände. Der Nachlass kann wissenschaftlich benutzt werden. Er wird von Hanjo Berressem und Norbert Finzsch verwaltet. Kontroverse: Acker verwendet wiederholt bewusst auch Bruchstücke von Texten anderer Autoren und kam so mit dem Urheberrecht in Konflikt. Der Bestsellerautor Harold Robbins verklagte sie wegen Verwendung einiger Passagen. Über ihre Ideen zum Urheberrecht schrieb Kathy Acker unter anderem in ihrem Buch Ultra Light ? Last Minute (herausgegeben von Sylvère Lothringer), das 1990 im Merve Verlag erschienen ist. Ihrer Vorstellung nach sollten die Werke aller Kunstschaffenden anderen Kunstschaffenden zur Kommunikation zur Verfügung stehen und sie trat für ?Plagiarismus? als Kunstform ein. In Great Expectations (1983) (dt. Große Erwartungen, 1988) verwendete die Autorin umfangreiche Textteile aus dem bekannten sadomasochistischen Roman Dominique Aurys Geschichte der O. Trotz ihrer ambivalenten Gefühle den akademischen Bildungsinstitutionen gegenüber arbeitete Kathy Acker einige Jahre als Literaturdozentin in San Francisco. Rezeption: Ackers direkte Sprache und ihre eigenwilligen literarischen Bearbeitungen von Themen wie Sexualität und Gewalt brachten ihr Buch mit dem deutschen Titel Harte Mädchen weinen nicht (englischer Originaltitel: Blood and Guts in High School) im Jahr 1985 vor die deutsche Bundesprüfstelle für jugendgefährdende Schriften. Das Buch wurde 1991 gekürzt neu aufgelegt, da ein indiziertes Werk weder beworben noch Minderjährigen zugänglich gemacht werden darf. Textprobe: ?Es war einmal eine materialistische Gesellschaft und eines der Resultate dieses Materialismus war eine ?sexuelle? Revolution. Da es der materialistischen Gesellschaft gelungen war, Sex von jedem erdenklichen Gefühl zu lösen, könnt ihr Mädchen jetzt alle hergehen und eure Beine sooft ihr wollt breit machen, weil es ja so easy ist, rumzuficken, weil es ja so easy ist, nichts zu empfinden. Ich kann mich nicht erinnern, mit wem ich das erste mal gefickt habe, aber über Empfängnisverhütung kann ich nichts gewusst haben, weil ich nämlich schwanger wurde. An die Abtreibung kann ich mich erinnern: einhundertneunzig Dollar (?) Den Frauen in meiner Schlange wurden Vordrucke ausgehändigt; jedes Formular endete mit einem Absatz, der besagte, dass sie den Arzt berechtigte, genau das zu tun, was er wollte und dass es nicht seine Schuld war, wenn sie hinterher tot war. Wir hatten uns schon vorher Männern anvertraut. Deshalb waren wir ja hier.? (Quelle Wikipedia)‎
