Book Description
Excerpt from Acta Et Dicta, Vol. 2: A Collection of Historical Data Regarding the Origin and Growth of the Catholic Church in the Northwest Prayers which on this occasion I offer up on high, for your preserva tion and continued happiness are not restricted to the changeable and perishable possessions which men of the world wish each other; they are well-wishes, prompted by religion, that the Lord might protect you by His grace, and that He grant you all spiritual blessings which I desire for myself. Dear parents, my filial love recalls to my mind the good example with which you have never ceased to inspire me, the salutary lessons which you have given me in such abundance, and inspires me with the most firm resolution to profit by them; forget, I humbly beg, the weakness of my youth; I hope that in the future you will never find me a disobedient child, I shall always be docile and ever desirous of profiting by the kindness showered upon me, so as to merit your es steem and your love.

Spirited Lives
Author: Carol K. CoburnPublisher: Univ of North Carolina Press
ISBN: 0807875716
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 344
Book Description
Made doubly marginal by their gender and by their religion, American nuns have rarely been granted serious scholarly attention. Instead, their lives and achievements have been obscured by myths or distorted by stereotypes. Placing nuns into the mainstream of American religious and women's history for the first time, Spirited Lives reveals their critical impact on the development of Catholic culture and, ultimately, the building of American society. Focusing on the Sisters of St. Joseph of Carondelet, one of the largest and most diverse American sisterhoods, Carol Coburn and Martha Smith explore how nuns directly influenced the lives of millions of Americans, both Catholic and non-Catholic, through their work in schools, hospitals, orphanages, and other social service institutions. Far from functioning as passive handmaidens for Catholic clergy and parishes, nuns created, financed, and administered these institutions, struggling with, and at times resisting, male secular and clerical authority. A rich and multifaceted narrative, Spirited Lives illuminates the intersection of gender, religion, and power in nineteenth- and early-twentieth-century America.
