Book Description
What is a woman to do when all she’s ever wanted was a happy, healthy family of her own, but now has nothing left to screw up? She has two choices: she can give up completely or start choosing herself, one day at a time. That’s exactly the choice Kimberly Sigurdson made: to heal, moment by moment. Growing up amid dysfunction, anger, and emotionally unavailable parents, Kimberly soon lost her voice and became a people pleaser. As she grew older, this led to dysfunctional relationships, where she put others’ needs before her own and made unhealthy choices. She felt stuck and unworthy and struggled with low self esteem. When an autoimmune disease flare-up landed her in the hospital at thirty-seven, Kimberly decided it was time to change her life. As her healing journey progressed, she found writing helped her release her thoughts and feelings and allowed her to share with the people she needed to. As Kimberly healed from her past, her letters changed. Her growth mindset provided a path to evolution, and she grew from writing from a place of self-pity to writing from a place of feeling grateful and empathetic to those who had hurt her. Follow Kimberly on her healing journey as she realizes it was never about not being good enough. Learn alongside her as she discovers that the way people treat others reflects how they feel about themselves and what they’ve been through in their own lives.

The Daughter’s Way
Author: Tanis MacDonald
Publisher: Wilfrid Laurier Univ. Press
ISBN: 1554584019
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 280
Book Description
The Daughter’s Way investigates negotiations of female subjectivity in twentieth-century Canadian women’s elegies with a special emphasis on the father’s death as a literary and political watershed. The book examines the work of Dorothy Livesay, P.K. Page, Jay Macpherson, Margaret Atwood, Kristjana Gunnars, Lola Lemire Tostevin, Anne Carson, and Erin Mouré as elegiac daughteronomies—literary artifacts of mourning that grow from the poets’ investigation into the function and limitations of elegiac convention. Some poets treat the father as a metaphor for socio-political power, while others explore more personal iterations of loss, but all the poets in The Daughter’s Way seek to redefine daughterly duty in a contemporary context by challenging elegiac tradition through questions of genre and gender. Beginning with psychoanalytical theories of filiation, inheritance, and mourning as they are complicated by feminist challenges to theories of kinship and citizenship, The Daughter’s Way debates the efficacy of the literary “work of mourning” in twentieth-century Canadian poetry. By investigating the way a daughter’s filial piety performs and sometimes reconfigures such work, and situating melancholia as a creative force in women’s elegies, the book considers how elegies inquire into the rhetoric of mourning as it is complicated by father-daughter kinship.

From Mesopotamia to the Mishnah
Author: Jonathan S. Milgram
Publisher: Mohr Siebeck
ISBN: 9783161540219
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 230
Book Description
In this study, Jonathan S. Milgram demonstrates that the transformation of inheritance law from the biblical to the tannaitic period is best explained against the backdrop of the legal and social contexts in which the tannaitic laws were formulated. Employing text and source critical methods, he argues that, in the absence of the hermeneutic underpinnings for tannaitic innovations, the laws were not the result of the rabbinic imagination and its penchant for inventive interpretation of Scripture. Turning to the rich repositories in biblical, ancient near eastern, Second Temple, Greek, Elephantine, Judean desert, and Roman sources, the author searches for conceptual parallels and antecedents as well as formulae and terminology adopted and adapted by the tannaim. Since the tannaitic traditions reflect the social and economic contexts of the tannaitic period - the nuclear family on privatized landholdings in urban centers - the author also considers the degree to which tannaitic inheritance laws may have emerged out of these contexts.
