Helen Barrett Montgomery

Helen Barrett Montgomery

Kendal P. Mobley

Baylor University Press

nidottu
Helen Barrett Montgomery (1861-1934) was a social reformer, a Baptist luminary, and a prominent intellectual of the American women's ecumenical missionary movement. In this definitive biography, Kendal Mobley analyzes the intellectual development of a fascinating woman and locates her in the context of her rapidly-changing times. Mobley explores Montgomery's early family influences, her education and spiritual development, and her relationship with other notable individuals of the era, including Susan B. Anthony. As Mobley points out, Montgomery believed that Christianity gave women equal spiritual and social status with men. Consequently, she saw ""woman's work for woman"" as the cutting edge of a global movement for women's emancipation.

Socioliterary Practice in Late Medieval England

Socioliterary Practice in Late Medieval England

Helen Barr

Oxford University Press
2001
sidottu
Socioliterary Practice in Late Medieval England bridges the disciplines of literature and history by examining various kinds of literary language as examples of social practice. Readings of both English and Latin texts from the late fourteenth and early fifteenth centuries are grounded in close textual study which reveals the social positioning of these works and the kinds of ideological work they can be seen to perform. Distinctive new readings of texts emerge which challenge received interpretations of literary history and late medieval culture. Canonical authors and texts such as Chaucer, Gower, and Pearl are discussed alongside the less familiar: Clanvowe, anonymous alliterative verse, and Wycliffite prose tracts.

Transporting Chaucer

Transporting Chaucer

Helen Barr

Manchester University Press
2014
sidottu
Drawing on the work of British sculptor Antony Gormley, alongside more traditional literary scholarship, this book argues for new relationships between Chaucer’s poetry and works by others. Chaucer’s playfulness with textual history and chronology anticipates how his own work is figured in later – and earlier – texts. Responding to this, the book presents innovative readings of the relationships between medieval texts and early modern drama, literary texts and material culture. It re-energises conventional models of source and analogue study to reveal unexpected – and sometimes unsettling – literary cohabitations. At the same time, it exposes how associations between architecture, pilgrim practice, manuscript illustration and the soundscapes of dramatic performance reposition how we read Chaucer’s oeuvre and what gets made of it. An invaluable resource for scholars and students of all levels with an interest in medieval English literary studies and early modern drama, Transporting Chaucer offers a new approach to how we encounter texts through time.

pokkari
Desde la PARTICULARIDAD urbana, hacia propuestas de SUSTENTABILIDAD, se incursiona entre planes y modelos tomando como fuente de esta experiencia Madrid y Barcelona (Espa a). Se construye un prototipo de mobiliario de transporte p blico urbano, adecuado al clima del lugar donde se posiciona. Se experimenta a trav s de los flujos energ ticos determinando incidencias e influencias de estos en el confort de espacios interiores y exteriores. Se plantean propuestas desde el dise o urbano comunitario hasta edificaciones que sirven de equipamiento y vivienda para asentamientos informales (tambi n conocidas como favelas en Brasil, o bidonvilles en Francia), en Maracaibo (Rep blica Bolivariana de Venezuela). Y explora, a trav s de tres vuelos y cuatro miradas, las caracter sticas espaciales de Maracaibo, partiendo de la forma urbana preponderante, los asentamientos informales. Es as , como en este libro se inicia en el an lisis de ciudades, discurre por experimentos de la especificidad urbana y medio ambiental y desemboca en el an lisis espacial de la ciudad, desde lo informal, para re-construir una ciudad que logre una integraci n sin rgica de sus diversas formas urbanas
