Описание:
The most memorable prayer of the Jewish New Year--what it means, why we sing it, and the secret of its magical appeal.
Through a series of lively commentaries, over thirty contributors--men and women, scholars and rabbis, artists and poets, spanning three continents and all major Jewish denominations--examine Kol Nidre's theology, usage, and deeply personal impact. They trace the actual history of the prayer and attempts through the ages to emend it, downplay it and even do away with it--all in vain. They explore why Kol Nidre remains an annual liturgical highlight that is regularly attended even by Jews who disbelieve everything the prayer says.
Prayers of Awe An exciting new series that examines the High Holy Day liturgy to enrich the praying experience of everyone--whether experienced worshipers or guests who encounter Jewish prayer for the very first time.

Описание:
All True Vows is one woman's story of choosing to enter the religious life for all the wrong reasons--and how she finds her way out to wholeness and fulfillment.
Author Sharon Downey opens up about her struggles within her family of origin and the "family" she became a part of as a vowed Franciscan in a non-denominational church in Pittsburgh.
Her vows place a huge demand on her and stir up challenges and conflicts in her everyday world of work and family. She faces crises that test her faith and a cancer diagnosis that drives home the need for change in her life. Ultimately, she finds a brand of spirituality that leads her back to her true self.
With each turn of the page, readers witness a woman gaining her voice until she's speaking loud and clear.

An unwilling, desperate nun trapped in the cloister, unable to gain release: such is the image that endures today of monastic life in early modern Europe. In By Force and Fear, Anne Jacobson Schutte demonstrates that this and other common stereotypes of involuntary consignment to religious houses—shaped by literary sources such as Manzoni's The Betrothed—are badly off the mark.
Drawing on records of the Congregation of the Council, held in the Vatican Archive, Schutte examines nearly one thousand petitions for annulment of monastic vows submitted to the Pope and adjudicated by the Council during a 125-year period, from 1668 to 1793. She considers petitions from Roman Catholic regions across Europe and a few from Latin America and finds that, in about half these cases, the congregation reached a decision. Many women and a smaller proportion of men got what they asked for: decrees nullifying their monastic profession and releasing them from religious houses. Schutte also reaches important conclusions about relations between elders and offspring in early modern families. Contrary to the picture historians have painted of increasingly less patriarchal and more egalitarian families, she finds numerous instances of fathers, mothers, and other relatives (including older siblings) employing physical violence and psychological pressure to compel adolescents into "entering religion." Dramatic tales from the archives show that many victims of such violence remained so intimidated that they dared not petition the pope until the agents of force and fear had died, by which time they themselves were middle-aged. Schutte's innovative book will be of great interest to scholars of early modern Europe, especially those who work on religion, the Church, family, and gender.
