Abstract

Warum nötigt Emilia Galotti ihren Vater, sie zu erstechen? Weshalb nimmt sich Miß Sara Sampson ihren Fehltritt so zu Herzen? Wieso flieht Luise Millerin nicht aus Liebe vor der höfischen Kabale? Selbsthass, Todeswunsch und Vatertreue sind keine individualpsychologischen Erscheinungen: Die Opferung der tugendhaften Tochter wird infolge einer im 18. Jh. neu formulierten Ideologie der Kleinfamilie konstitutiv für das bürgerliche Trauerspiel. Dem empfindsamen Patriarchen darf sich kein Kind entziehen. Lessing und Schiller inszenieren ‚bürgerliche’ Tugend als Problem: Lessings Experiment einer Tragödie ohne dramatische Fallhöhe wird bei Schiller zur dezidiert politischen Aussage, die ihre eigenen ideologischen Voraussetzungen massiv hinterfragt.

Abstract

Written for everyone interested in women's and gender history, History Matters reaffirms the importance to feminist theory and activism of long-term historical perspectives. Judith M. Bennett, who has been commenting on developments in women's and gender history since the 1980s, argues that the achievement of a more feminist future relies on a rich, plausible, and well-informed knowledge of the past, and she asks her readers to consider what sorts of feminist history can best advance the struggles of the twenty-first century.Bennett takes as her central problem the growing chasm between feminism and history. Closely allied in the 1970s, each has now moved away from the other. Seeking to narrow this gap, Bennett proposes that feminist historians turn their attention to the intellectual challenges posed by the persistence of patriarchy. She posits a "patriarchal equilibrium" whereby, despite many changes in women's experiences over past centuries, women's status vis-à-vis that of men has remained remarkably unchanged. Although, for example, women today find employment in occupations unimaginable to medieval women, medieval and modern women have both encountered the same wage gap, earning on average only three-fourths of the wages earned by men. Bennett argues that the theoretical challenge posed by this patriarchal equilibrium will be best met by long-term historical perspectives that reach back well before the modern era. In chapters focused on women's work and lesbian sexuality, Bennett demonstrates the contemporary relevance of the distant past to feminist theory and politics. She concludes with a chapter that adds a new twist-the challenges of textbooks and classrooms-to viewing women's history from a distance and with feminist intent.A new manifesto, History Matters engages forthrightly with the challenges faced by feminist historians today. It argues for the radical potential of a history that is focused on feminist issues, aware of the distant past, attentive to continuities over time, and alert to the workings of patriarchal power.

Abstract

Dans Divine Ressemblance, le cardinal Marc Ouellet dresse un parallèle saisissant entre la Trinité et l'institution familiale, en dégageant pour celle-ci des possibilités d'épanouissement incommensurables. La communion des personnes, dans la Trinité comme dans la famille, dépend de la qualité du don de soi atteinte dans les relations interpersonnelles. Cette " ressemblance" sacralise la famille au sein de laquelle se vit alors un véritable mystère d'alliance nourri à la source de la fidélité des époux, de leur unité et de leur fécondité. Cette alliance entre Trinité et famille engendre des femmes et des hommes nouveaux, des chrétiens qui témoignent que l'amour divin et l'amour humain sont capables de réciprocité. La fécondité sacramentelle de la famille, image de Dieu dans sa perspective trinitaire, apparaît enfin dans toute sa vitalité. Au terme de la lecture, on aura une meilleure compréhension des positions que l'Eglise promeut dans les débats captivants qui traversent la société contemporaine en soulevant des enjeux aux conséquences souvent insoupçonnées. Ces positions, loin d'exprimer le jugement ou l'exclusion, mettent en valeur l'intégrité de la personne en dévoilant sa place au cœur du projet divin, qu'il est parfois difficile d'exposer dans le cadre de certaines tribunes médiatiques, mais que le livre permet de saisir dans toutes ses dimensions.

Abstract

Contemporary trends such as increased one-parent families, high divorce rates, second marriages and homosexual partnerships have all contributed to variations in the traditional family structure. But to what degree has the function of the family changed and how have these changes affected family roles in cultures throughout the world? This book attempts to answer these questions through a psychological study of families in thirty nations, carefully selected to present a diverse cultural mix. The study utilises both cross-cultural and indigenous perspectives to analyse variables including family networks, family roles, emotional bonds, personality traits, self-construal, and 'family portraits' in which the authors address common core themes of the family as they apply to their native countries. From the introductory history of the study of the family to the concluding indigenous psychological analysis of the family, this book is a source for students and researchers in psychology, sociology and anthropology.
