Den osynliga ledamoten : Poeten Anna Maria Lenngren i upplysningens Sverige
”I vissa kretsar var Anna Marias ointresse för skvaller, spetsar och havresoppors konsistens direkt provocerande. En del väninnor hade surnat till. De förstod sig inte på henne. Visste hon inte att intellektuella ambitioner stred mot kvinnans natur? Översätta latin, skriva vers på alexandrin – vem trodde hon att hon var?” Poeten Anna Maria Lenngren var en centralgestalt i Stockholms kulturliv i slutet av 1700-talet, då försvarare av upplysningens ideal stångades mot starka krafter som ville strypa det fria ordet. Mästerlig i sin språkliga musikalitet slog hon igenom som poet redan i tjugoårsåldern och fick översättningsuppdrag av hovet – allt i ett Sverige där kvinnor var omyndiga och knappt tilläts verka utanför hemmet. I tidningen Stockholms Posten skrev hon kvicka satirer om sin samtid som roar än idag – mer än två hundra år senare. Hon publicerade de flesta av sina poem under anonymitet och när samhällsklimatet hårdnade gjorde hon vad hon kunde för att dölja den bildning som ansågs vara förbehållen männen. I Svenska Akademien kallade man henne ”den osynliga ledamoten”. Ingrid Carlberg är en av Sveriges mest prisbelönta författare av sakprosa. I denna levande skildring av upplysningens Sverige låter hon den skygga men vasst ironiska Anna Maria Lenngren kliva ut ur skuggorna, se sitt Sverige röra sig från frihetstidens drömmar om mänskliga rättigheter till envälde och censur.

(Anna Maria Taigi 1769 - 1837) St. Alphonsus writes: "a single bad book will be sufficient to cause the destruction of a monastery." Pope Pius XII wrote in 1947 at the beatification of Blessed Maria Goretti: "There rises to Our lips the cry of the Saviour: 'Woe to the world because of scandals ' (Matthew 18:7). Woe to those who consciously and deliberately spread corruption-in novels, newspapers, magazines, theaters, films, in a world of immodesty " We at St. Pius X Press are calling for a crusade of good books. We want to restore 1,000 old Catholic books to the market. We ask for your assistance and prayers. This book is a photographic reprint of the original. The original has been inspected and many imperfections in the existing copy have been corrected. At Saint Pius X Press our goal is to remain faithful to the original in both photographic reproductions and in textual reproductions that are reprinted. Photographic reproductions are given a page by page inspection, whereas textual reproductions are proofread to correct any errors in reproduction.

Loss and the Other in the Visionary Work of Anna Maria Ortese

Loss and the Other in the Visionary Work of Anna Maria Ortese

This book examines the ?vre of Anna Maria Ortese (1914-1998) from her first literary writings in the Thirties to her great novels in the Nineties. The analysis focusses on two interweaving core themes, loss and the Other. It begins with the shaping of personal loss of an Other following death, separation, abandonment, coupled with melancholy for life's transience as depicted in autobiographical works and in her masterpiece Il porto di Toledo. The book then addresses Ortese's literary engagement with social themes in realist stories set in post-war Naples in her collection Il mare non bagna Napoli and then explores her continuing preoccupation with socio-ethical issues, imbued with autobiographical elements, in non-realist texts, including her masterful novels L'Iguana, Il cardillo addolorato and Alonso e i visionari The book combines theme and genre analysis, highlighting Ortese's adoption and hybridization of diverse literary forms such as poetry, the novel, the short story, the essay, autobiography, realism, fairy tales, fantasy, allegory. In her work Ortese weaves an ongoing dialogue with literary and non-literary works, through direct quotations, allusions, echoes, adoption of motifs and topoi. The book thus highlights the intertextual relationship with her sources: Leopardi, Dante, Petrarch, Manzoni, Collodi, Montale, Serao; Shakespeare, Milton, Keats, Blake, Joyce, Conrad, Melville, Poe, Hawthorne, Hardy; Manrique, Gongora, de Quevedo, Villalón, Bello, Cantar del mio Cid; Heine, Valery, Puccini's Madam Butterfly, folklore, popular songs, and the Bible. Ortese thus shapes her literary themes in the background of social, political and economic upheavals over six decades of Italian history, culminating in an allegorical critique of modernity and a call for a renewed bond between humans and the Other.
Sacrifice and Delight in the Mystical Theologies of Anna Maria Van Schurman and Madame Jeanne Guyon
In this compelling study of two seventeenth-century female mystics, Bo Karen Lee examines the writings of Anna Maria van Schurman and Madame Jeanne Guyon, who, despite different religious formations, came to similar conclusions about the experience of God in contemplative prayer. Van Schurman was born into a Dutch Calvinist family and became a superb scriptural commentator before undergoing a dramatic religious conversion and joining the Labadist community, a Pietistic movement. Guyon was a French layperson whose thought would be identified with Quietism—a spiritual path that was looked upon with suspicion both by the French Catholic Church and by Rome. Lee analyzes and compares the themes of self-denial and self-annihilation in the writings of these two mystics. In van Schurman's case, the focus is on the distinction between scholastic knowledge of God and the intima notitia Dei accessible only by radical self-denial. In Guyon's case, it is on the union with God that is accessible only through a painful self-annihilation. For both authors, Lee demonstrates that the desire for enjoyment of God plays an important role as the engine of the soul's progress away from self-centeredness. The appendices offer facing Latin and English translations of two letters by van Schurman and a selection from her Eukleria.
