Although women were called the "pious sex" much earlier, it was during the nineteenth century, when the differences between men and women were being made more explicit, that an intense bond between women and religion was developed. Religiosity was thought to be a "natural" part of femininity and turned religious masculinity into an oddity. This clear-cut gender ideology, however, remains an ideology (prescribed and contested) that needs to be put in the perspective of its context of origin, the bourgeois milieu. How were these gender identities constructed and by whom?
Tine Van Osselaer seeks to clarify how the gender differentiation was created among Belgian Catholics. She brings to light the extent to which religiosity was inscribed in these constructions and how religious teachings contributed to it. It is clear that the limitations of the "feminization" thesis, a master narrative that has strongly contributed to the introduction of women in religious history, have gradually become more visible. Documenting pastoral care, the devotion to the Sacred Heart of Jesus and Catholic Action, The Pious Sex offers critical commentaries on the master narratives, suggesting that even men could belong to a "pious sex."

Описание:
Human rights are increasingly described as being in crisis. But are human rights really on the verge of disappearing? Human Rights Transformation in Practice argues that it is certainly the case that human rights organizations in many parts of the world are under threat, but that the ideals of justice, fairness, and equality inherent in human rights remain appealing globally—and that recognizing the continuing importance and strength of human rights requires looking for them in different places. These places are not simply the Human Rights Council or regular meetings of monitoring committees but also the offices of small NGOs and the streets of poor cities. In Human Rights Transformation in Practice, editors Tine Destrooper and Sally Engle Merry collect various approaches to the questions of how human rights travel and how they are transformed, offering a corrective to those perspectives locating human rights only in formal institutions and laws. Contributors to the volume empirically examine several hypotheses about the factors that impact the vernacularization and localization of human rights: how human rights ideals become formalized in local legal systems, sometimes become customary norms, and, at other times, fail to take hold. Case studies explore the ways in which local struggles may inspire the further development of human rights norms at the transnational level. Through these analyses, the essays in Human Rights Transformation in Practice consider how the vernacularization and localization processes may be shaped by different causes of human rights violations, the perceived nature of violations, and the existence of networks and formal avenues for information-sharing.

Описание:
Gestalt Process Writing to C is about the longing to communicate and connect with teachers, colleagues, clients, students, and loved ones.
The moment I started my Gestalt training, I started Process Writing, though I didn't know this was what I was doing. Gestalt opened a source, a stream of energy that connected me with the wisdom that had been waiting there all the time. I just didn't know how to reach it.
Gestalt not only taught me how to reach this wisdom, but showed me how to express and contain it. No matter what I did, leading writing groups, teaching creative Gestalt in workshops, attending international conferences, exploring the Jewish Renewal World, I always had my notebook with me to connect with my thoughts, feelings, ideas, frustrations, longings. Me and my notebook cannot be separated, as we are One.
In this book you will find the most interesting results of my Process Writing, which began in 1984, when I started my Gestalt training program. You will find a complete Gestalt Process Writing to C Program to explore and write your own life story, to find your own answers to such existential questions as: Who am I? Where do I come from? Am I free to speak?
Tine van Wijk grew up in Amsterdam, the Netherlands, during World War II. "I am a Gestalt therapist/trainer/teacher. Gestalt saved my life. Gestalt Process Writing to C is about the longing to connect and to make contact with that one teacher who is sincerely interested in life, and who can therefore give you the right to exist and be who you are." This is her first book in English. She also published three books in Dutch.
