Returning to rural Ireland in 1938 and a young girl full of hope and expectation, A Song for Bridget recounts a series of tragic events that eventually bring her to Manchester and Birmingham and a desperate daily struggle to survive. Bridget s haunting story, told for her by her daughter, is a perfect example of both the fragility and resilience of the human spirit.

The Liber Celestis of St Bridget of Sweden vol I

The Liber Celestis of St Bridget of Sweden vol I

Oxford University Press
1987
sidottu
St Bridget of Sweden (1303-73) began to experience supernatural revelations as a lady-in-waiting at the Swedish court in 1335. After her husband's death she left the court and founded a monastery for nuns and monks which became the basis of the Brigettine Order. Her visions continued after she left Sweden for Italy in 1349, and she spent the rest of her life in pilgrimage and religious activities. The visions, some of the Passion and others concerned with political and religious events of her day, were recorded in Latin by her spiritual directors, as the Liber Celestis. The mystical equivalent of a medieval manual for preachers, the work points us to what was best and worst in late medieval spirituality. It was several times translated into Middle English but the only translation hitherto available has been the partial and truncated version published in 1929. The present work is a critical edition of one of the two complete Middle English translations of the Liber, contained in British Library MS Claudius BI. This first volume consists of the text and a brief introduction to the Liber. The second volume will include a study of the manuscript and the translation; a full commentary, explanatory notes, bibliography, and glossary.

Universal Holiness: 21st Century Spiritual Guidance from Bridget of Sweden, Catherine of Siena and Edith Stein

Universal Holiness: 21st Century Spiritual Guidance from Bridget of Sweden, Catherine of Siena and Edith Stein

Dr Elodie Boublil

T. T.Clark Ltd
2021
sidottu
This is the first publication in English providing a profound and detailed understanding of the spirituality of Saint Bridget of Sweden, Saint Catherine of Siena and Edith Stein (Saint Teresa Benedict of the Cross). Philosopher Elodie Boublil reflects on the feminine theology of these saints to show its relevance for today's world and the Church. Beyond their European anchorage, the testimony of these three women is a 'proclamation of hope'. They bear witness to Christ-Way (Bridget from Sweden), Truth (Catherine of Siena) and Life (Edith Stein/Teresa Benedict of the Cross)-and to the Holy Spirit which shaped their hearts. Through their lives and teachings the co-patronesses of Europe remind us of the urgent necessity to reopen a path to interiority to better serve others, showing thereby the unity of contemplation and action. These women embodied the 'culture of the encounter' and the spirit of fraternity that Pope Francis calls for and the universal call to holiness made by the Vatican II Council.

Seminar paper from the year 2007 in the subject Sociology - Gender Studies, grade: 1,0, University of Newcastle upon Tyne, course: Representations: The Communication Culture, Identity and Society, 15 entries in the bibliography, language: English, abstract: This essay introduces various concepts of identity formation, including hegemony, discursive formation and invented categories. On the basis of these concepts, it discusses masculinity and femininity in the movie "Bridget Jones's Diary," comparing the leading men Daniel Cleaver (Hugh Grant) and Mark Darcy (Colin Firth) with each other, and the heroine Bridget Jones (Ren e Zellweger) with the seemingly perfect Natasha. Secondly, the essay seeks to evaluate the role of the feminine gaze and objectification of Cleaver and Darcy.

The Comparison of Pride and Prejudice and Bridget Jones's Diary

The present study has analysed Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice and Helen Fielding's Bridget Jones's Diary comparatively in relation to the genre of the novel of manners. As the novels have been compared, the times in which they were written have been examined concerning their impact on the novels. Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice, as one of the most widely known novels in English literature, is explored as one of the representatives of the novel of manners genre. Helen Fielding's Bridget Jones's Diary, a popular novel in chick literature, is examined as a modern adaptation of the novel of manners. Since an exploration of the features of the novel of manners as regards the novels requires background information on the genre, its definition, subject and characteristics have been reviewed. The novel of manners is concerned with the issues of manners, class distinctions, financial matters, courtship and marriage. As these aspects of the genre are explored in the novels comparatively, an analysis of Pride and Prejudice and Bridget Jones's Diary in relation to the features of the novel of manners is presented.
