The First Blast of the Trumpet Against the Monstrous Regiment of Women

The First Blast of the Trumpet Against the Monstrous Regiment of Women

John Knox

Berith Press
2024
sidottu
"To promote a woman to bear rule, superiority, dominion, or empire above any realm, nation, or city, is repugnant to nature, contumely to God, a thing most contrarious to his revealed will and approved ordinance, and finally, it is the subversion of good order, of all equity and justice."John Knox's classic treatment of the authority of women in the civil sphere has been freshly typeset for the modern age. Setting out his position that female rule was ordinarily contrary to nature, Knox brings in Scriptural and historical proofs in order to make his case forcefully and powerfully.

Hailes Castle, 1511. Midnight on a doom-laden Hallowe'en and Elisabeth Hepburn, feisty daughter of the Earl of Bothwell, makes a wish - to wed her lover, the poet David Lindsay. But her uncle has other plans. To safeguard the interests of the Hepburn family she is to become a nun and succeed her aunt as Prioress of St. Mary's Abbey, Haddington. However, plunged into the political maelstrom and religious turmoil of the early Scottish Reformation, her life there is hardly one of quiet contemplation. Strong-willed and independent, she clashes with those who question her unorthodox regime at St. Mary's, including Cardinal David Beaton and her rival, Sister Maryoth Hay. But her greatest struggle is against her thrawn godson, John Knox. Witnessing his rejection of the Roman Catholic Church - aided by David Lindsay - she despairs that the sins of her past may have contributed to his present disenchantment. As he purges himself from the puddle of papistry, Knox finds his voice, denouncing everything he once held dear, but will that include his godmother, Prioress Elisabeth? And by confessing her dark secrets, will Elisabeth steer Knox from the pernicious pull of Protestantism or drive him further down the fateful path he seems hell-bent on, a path that leads to burning at the stake? In a daring attempt to shed light on a wheen of unanswered questions about John Knox's early, undocumented life, this novel throws up some startling claims and controversial conjectures.

The First Blast to Awaken Women Degenerate

Rachel McCrum

The First Blast to Awaken Women Degenerate by the inaugural BBC Scotland Poet-In-Residence Rachel McCrum is both lyrical and gentle, demanding and fierce as it carves its own path through themes of family, place, environment, and repression. The poems in the collection are fragments of McCrum's sea-bourne journey from Northern Island, across Scotland, and alighting in Canada. It's a collection about leaving home and what you take with you.About Rachel McCrumRachel McCrum was born in 1982 and grew up in Donaghadee, Northern Ireland. She lived in Edinburgh, Scotland from 2010 to 2016, where she previously published two pamphlets with Stewed Rhubarb Press: The Glassblower Dances (2012, winner of the Callum MacDonald Award) and Do Not Alight Here Again (2015, also a solo Fringe show). She was the Broad of cult spoken word cabaret Rally & Broad, the inaugural BBC Scotland Poet-In-Residence, and a recipient of an RLS Fellowship in 2016.

She currently lives in Montreal, Quebec, where she is Director of Les Cabarets Batards.ReviewsFrancesca Beard: These voices] come in, banging doors, from the street and the public house and the rented room above the library, with a blast of salt air and the smell of malt and red-knuckled ideas that say 'Let's dance' and there's so much oxygen in them, to breathe them in is rich for the blood.Stuart Kelly, The Scotsman: There is a great deal of won humour and wonder here. ...] The whole collection manages to take the lyrical and whittle it into the political. ...] Time and again there are snatches that stick in the memoryAnnie Rutherford, The Skinny: McCrum's] poems - irreverent, heart-wrenching, rallying - have etched themselves into the literary landscape of the country she has now left behind. ...] There are poems of the sea, bracing and surprising as spray-slapped salt air ...] humour, passion and delightful monstrosityArusa Qureshi, The List: Another impassioned addition to her repertoire ...] soulful and yet defiantAlison Craig, The Bottle Imp: A voice that sings, rages, roars as you read. These poems make their own stage. The voice is an extraordinary one: strident, angry, full of blood and air, but then tender, lyrical, quiet.
