"#UsToo: How Jewish, Muslim, and Christian Women Changed Our Communities examines the relationship between sexual harassment, gender, and multiple religions, highlighting the voices of women of different faiths who found their voices and used them for the betterment of their communities. Through personal interviews and other research, this book explores the actions of American Jewish, Muslim, and Christian women who broke the silence about sexual misconduct and abuse of power by male co-religionists. Using a three-dimensional, ethnoreligious approach that examines gender, ethnicity, and religion, it addresses the relationship between religion and women's experiences and examines both historical contexts and present-day experiences of sexual misconduct within faith communities. This book will be of key interest to students within Gender Studies, History, Religion, and Sociology, clergy and lay religious leaders, and human rights advocates. Keren"-- Provided by publisher.

Leben und Wundertaten der heiligen Elisabeth von Thüringen sind der Inhalt des 'Elisabethlebens' des Eisenacher Ratsschreibers Johannes Rothe (ca. 1360-1434). Rothe, der zuvor bereits geistliche Werke sowie drei umfangreiche Chroniken ('Eisenacher Stadtchronik', 'Thüringische Landeschronik' und 'Weltchronik) verfasst hat, bietet in der paargereimten Verslegende von über 4000 Versen die umfassende Wiedergabe der chronikalischen und legendarischen Überlieferung, wobei er neben den Chroniken besonders die lateinische Vita Dietrichs von Apolda auswertet. In dem formalen Anschluss an Heiligenlegenden und der inhaltlichen Orientierung an der Chronistik nimmt Rothe einen gattungsübergreifenden Standpunkt ein. Elisabeths Leben wird in die Genealogie des Landgrafengeschlechts eingebunden und damit zum Bestandteil der landgräflichen Memorialkultur. In der Rezeptionsgeschichte des Textes, mit zahlreichen Abschriften bis ins 18. Jh., sind entsprechende Schwerpunkte nachweisbar: das Werk wurde teils als Andachtsbuch genutzt, teils als Bestandteil der Dynastiememoria des thüringischen Herrscherhauses. Rothes Text wird hier erstmals auf der Grundlage der gesamten Überlieferung ediert. Im Parallelabdruck wird eine zweite Fassung geboten, sodass sich die Interessenverschiebungen gegenüber dem Text und die damit verbundenen Varianzen jeweils überschauen lassen.br›

Alors que l'ère des grands maîtres de la mystique espagnole semble close, la floraison des autobiographies spirituelles féminines, dans les années 1580-1720, témoigne d'un double dynamisme : celui des femmes qui aspirent à la sainteté, à travers une expérience intérieure marquée par l'irruption de grâces surnaturelles ; celui des ordres religieux et de toute une société, qui voient en ces femmes le signe de l'élection divine. Pourtant, le débat reste vif, entre partisans et adversaires du mysticisme féminin. L'itinéraire des aventurières du surnaturel et de leurs écrits s'inscrit dans cette tension entre promotion et censure.

In this book, Helena Kupari examines the lived religion of Finnish, evacuee Karelian Orthodox women through an innovative reading and application of Pierre Bourdieu’s practice theory. After the Second World War, Finland ceded most of its Karelian territories to the Soviet Union. Over 400,000 Finns, including two thirds of the Finnish Orthodox Christians, lost their homes. This book traces the ways in which the religion of Orthodox women was affected by their displacement and their experiences as members of the Orthodox minority in post-war and contemporary Finland. It contributes to theoretical discussions on lived religion by producing an account of lifelong minority religion as habitus, or an embodied and practical “sense of religion”.
