The Chastity Plot

The Chastity Plot

Lisabeth During

University of Chicago Press
2021
sidottu
In The Chastity Plot, Lisabeth During tells the story of the rise, fall, and transformation of the ideal of chastity. From its role in the practice of asceticism to its associations with sovereignty, violence, and the purity of nature, it has been loved, honored, and despised. Obsession with chastity has played a powerful and disturbing role in our moral imagination. It has enforced patriarchy’s double standards, complicated sexual relations, and imbedded in Western culture a myth of gender that has been long contested by feminists. Still not yet fully understood, the chastity plot remains with us, and the metaphysics of purity continue to haunt literature, religion, and philosophy. Idealized and unattainable, sexual renunciation has shaped social institutions, political power, ethical norms, and clerical abuses. It has led to destruction and passion, to seductive fantasies that inspired saints and provoked libertines. As During shows, it should not be underestimated. Examining literature, religion, psychoanalysis, and cultural history from antiquity through the middle ages and into modernity, During provides a sweeping history of chastity and insight into its subversive potential. Instead of simply asking what chastity is, During considers what chastity can do, why we should care, and how it might provide a productive disruption, generating new ways of thinking about sex, integrity, and freedom.

The Bounceback: From Heartbreak to Wholeness

In "The BounceBack: From Heartbreak to Wholeness" LisaBeth Willis chronicles her journey of restoration after losing herself in marriage and a subsequent relationship. She details her life experiences that led her to her "rock bottom" and then outlines her healing process and how through prayer and forgiveness God guided her back to herself. This book is for women who have lost their sense of self due to heartbreak, divorce or from simply juggling life's responsibilities. It chronicles the journey of the author and inspires readers to embark upon self-exploration. In addition, it gives tips for restoration by offering nine steps that readers can conduct to reclaim their own lives. Everyone is born with gifts and a level of passion for something that is greater than themselves. For LisaBeth Willis, her passion was always expressing herself creatively by singing and writing. As a child, she mimicked the vocal artistry of Natalie Cole and longed to forge a career in the music and entertainment industry. However, like many others, she was discouraged from pursuing her entertainment interests in favor of a career that granted her middle class standing, but ultimately failed to provide inward fulfillment. After college, she networked herself into the music industry; however, after making an emotional decision she stepped away from her heart's desires, lost her sense of self and ultimately ended up heartbroken and in a state of depression. The BounceBack: From Heartbreak to Wholeness chronicles her journey of pain and devastation and lists the steps she took to be restored. The enclosed workbook also provides introspective questions and insights you can use to help you re-discover yourself, find your purpose, and jumpstart you on a journey to fulfillment.

The relationship of the writer Bettina von Arnim (1785-1859) to the protagonists of her letter and conversation books has long intrigued readers and critics. The first sustained reading of Arnim's six major texts written in English, this book investigates the relationship of Arnim to her literary Bettine-figures and the roles - including those of child, friend, lover, mother, writer, and genius - that she assigned to these textual personae. Employing feminist theories of positionality, it demonstrates how Arnim developed various subject positions for both herself and her protagonists. Further, it shows how Arnim's increasing public stature over the course of the 1840s strongly influenced the transformation of her literary namesake from childlike figures who focus primarily on the development of the self into mature women who concern themselves first and foremost with issues of politics and social justice.

We want to pursue new adventures, pathways and are energized to explore the best life has to offer. But why does it take facing death for us to live our best life? How do we embrace the greatness of our world without having to first face trauma and fear?
