Nicoletti, María Andrea, and Ana Inés Barelli. "Blessed among All Women: The Missionary Virgin, Identity and Territory in Patagonia." Studies in Religion/Sciences Religieuses 48, no. 2 (June 2019): 258–81. http://dx.doi.org/10.1177/0008429819831942.

Abstract:
After the creation of the Diocese of Viedma (1953), in Northern Patagonia, there took place the dedication to the Missionary Virgin, promoted by the Diocese’s second Bishop, Monsignor Miguel Hesayne (1975–1993). In the midst of the military dictatorship (1976–1983), he appointed her Patron Saint of Río Negro, a province that at the time belonged to the Diocese of Viedma. He followed the teachings of the Second Vatican Council, especially the Puebla Document, which considers the Virgin Mary as the patron saint of the Americas, with the dedication of the Virgin of Guadalupe. Hesayne sought to identify his Diocese with a female figure with indigenous features, like the Virgin of Guadalupe. In conceiving the Missionary Virgin deprived of ornaments and royal attributes, the bishop aimed to reflect his pastoral of the “option for the poor,” thus bringing attention to the marginalized groups and peripheral spaces of the province, and also attributing a new meaning to its social and territorial identity.

Abstract:
The question of providing financial assistance to women of clerical rank in the Tobolsk diocese in the 1820—1830s is considered. The results of a comparative analysis of the stages and terms of office work on this issue before and after the opening of the Tobolsk guardianship of the poor are presented. Particular attention is paid to the examination of the petition documents that were compiled in the Tobolsk spiritual consistory from the words of women of clerical rank who applied for financial assistance to the Tobolsk archbishop during this period. The novelty of the research is seen in the fact that the issue under consideration is being studied for the first time on the basis of documents of the Tobolsk spiritual consistory. The documents stored in the State Archives in the city of Tobolsk testify to the existence of a certain algorithm for recording a request, two different established procedures for conducting cases on the charity of female clergymen before and after 1823. The criteria, by which the selection of requests was carried out among the many requests for assistance, were identified. Criteria have been established for choosing between two types of salary — a guardianship allowance and a ten-ruble poorhouse salary. The reasons for the complete denial of support are also named.

Abstract:
AbstractMuch has been written to critique the Catholic church's position on the ordination of women based on arguments from scripture and tradition. However, there has been little local research on how South African women experience the consequences of this exclusion from ministry. In this article Ralphs and Kretzschmar set out, from an ethical and feminist theological position, to show the effects of this exclusion both on women and on the church. Through a study of the literature and interviews with 60 Catholic women from the diocese of Johannesburg, they attempt to explain what lies behind the Catholic church's position on women, and to describe it's negative consequences. The authors conclude that whilst many women are aware of the negative effects of exclusion, they are unable to name the structural forces which reinforce this exclusion, and that theological and pedagogical processes are required to shape a different consciousness among women.

Abstract:
The purpose of the current study was to describe the health-related quality of life (HRQOL) of older women religious (WR) and examine variables that may influence HRQOL. The sample consisted of WR, 65 years or older, living in the Cleveland Catholic Diocese. The participants completed a medical history, body-mass index (BMI) and blood pressure measurement, and self-report measures of HRQOL, frailty, social support, resilience, and depression. The study sample was composed of 108 older WR with a mean age of 75.6 (range 65–93 years). The women reported high levels of daily functioning, resilience, and social support, with low levels of depression. WR describe a relatively high level of HRQOL. Frailty was an independent negative predictor of HRQOL in all subscales except general health. Resilience and fear of falling had significant effects on several HRQOL subscales.

Abstract:
The article describes different ways to identify Ruthenian (Ukrainian) women living in the eastern part of the Lublin province. The material was excerpted from the registers of the Uniate parishes of the former Chełm diocese from the period 1596–1810. During the period under study, the anthroponymic system tended towards stabilisation in the form of two-element names in accordance with the [first name] + [surname] pattern. The majority of identification formulas consist of a given name and surname derived semantically or through word formation, although there are also few examples of the use of simple surnameless formulas or more extensive, two- and three-element anthroponymic descriptions used to identify adults.

Abstract:
These essays were presented at the Jubilate conference at Christ Church Cathedral in the Diocese of Southern Ohio on 2 November 2019. Meyers urges the expansion of images and metaphors used to speak of the mystery of God in liturgy while not abandoning classical masculine language for God. Expanding our language is essential, she argues, both to speak the truth about God and to uphold the dignity of every human being. Sonderegger contends that masculine language for God is a settled matter in the church and in liturgy, and that this is compatible with a particular vision of Christian feminism, one centered on the material conditions of living women.

Abstract:
In the early modern period, Basque women who could not or did not want to follow the traditional paths of monasticism or secular marriage had a third option. They could become seroras, or celibate laywomen licensed by the diocese and entrusted with caring for a shrine or parish church. Seroras enjoyed significant social prestige and their work was competitively remunerated by the local community; yet despite their central place in the local religious life of the early modern Basque Country and Navarre, the seroras have attracted almost no historical study. The purpose of this article is twofold: first, it summarizes the social and spiritual context that allowed for women to experiment with the more unorthodox religious vocations like that of the seroras; and secondly, it draws from extensive primary documentation concerning the seroras in order to outline the main features of the vocation, by extension differentiating them from better-known categories of the semi-religious life such as the beguines, Castilian beatas, or Italian tertiaries.

Abstract:
This article responds to Massimo Faggioli’s desire for early traditions that could be retrieved and supply a theological and moral vision for reforming the Roman Curia, the collaborators of the Bishop of Rome. From the New Testament we have scarce information about Peter’s ‘co-workers.’ Seven certainly authentic letters of Paul, however, show such apostolic collaborators functioning with Paul on his mission, and doing so in a variety of ways that prefigure the tasks of the modern Curia. The diocese of Rome is founded on the martyrdom of Peter and Paul. The Christian men and women who collaborated with Paul supply, not so much markers for some administrative changes, but rather an inspiring vision for a biblically based reform of the Roman Curia.

Full text
Abstract:
This article responds to a debate about the clash between canon law and common law positions on whether married women in England could make wills and what freedoms they had in terms of bequeathing property. In particular, it revises the argument that wives largely ceased to make wills c.1450 by arguing that local customs should be given more attention. The article offers a detailed study of the surviving wills in the deanery of Wisbech 1465–77, its linked diocese of Ely 1449–1505, and the probate acta of the Archdeaconry of Buckingham 1483–97, in order to demonstrate that there was regional variation in the decline in married women's will-making. In particular, a focus on court books, which included visitation material alongside the enrolled wills and probate acta, enables more to be said about the kinds of married women who continued to make wills and their motivations. The article argues that in these areas, as well as a continued tendency for wives who had some land or buildings to make wills, married women who had close connections with men who acted as churchwardens or jurors in church courts were also more likely to have their wills proved, even when they had little to bequeath.

Abstract:
The study addresses some aspects of the life experience of female prosphora bakers from the clergy in the Tobolsk diocese, Russian Empire, in the 19th and early 20th century. The research objectives were to investigate opportunities and difficulties that women faced trying to get the job of a prosphora baker, and to find out reasons why women would seek this position. The sources of information for the research were previously unexamined archival documents preserved in the State Archives in Tobolsk. General scientific, historical and special methods of records management were also used. The main problem for jobseekers was the fact that one parish most often required only one prosphora maker, and there were usually more people willing to take this position. It was up to the diocesan authorities to decide which candidate needed the job more, but the parishioners could also take part in the hiring process by submitting their letter of consent. In the modern period of Russian Orthodox Churchs resurgence, it is especially important to study how the clergy would manage their daily living needs in dioceses. The positive experience of the past can help improve the system of social relief in our time. The results of the research can be useful to archivists in their professional activities and to educators in developing courses on the history of Russia and records management.

Abstract:
To regularise and strengthen female monastic life in his Winchester diocese, in the early sixteenth century Bishop Richard Fox made a new translation of the Rule of St Benedict explicitly for women. He had it printed by Richard Pynson in 1517, thus taking advantage of the ability of the printing press to provide multiple copies for all the members of the four Hampshire womens' houses he addressed: St Mary Winchester (Nunnaminster), Wherwell, Romsey and Wintney.In addition to these printed copies Bishop Fox provided additional manuscript books for each of the four houses, as his preface to the Rule tells us: ‘And by cause we wolde not/that there shulde be any lacke amongis them of the bokis of this sayd translation/we haue therfore/aboue and besyde certayne bokes ther of/which we haue yeven to the sayde monasteris: caused it to be emprinted’ [italics mine] (sig.

Abstract:
AbstractThis article aims to provide insight into the nature, distribution and function of certain Middle Dutch translations of Latin hymns and sequences that originated in the circles of the Devotio Moderna. Unlike the vernacular versions in (most) Middle Dutch lay breviaries, which were used as texts for prayer in the context of private devotion, the translations in what I refer to as “vernacular mass and office books” functioned as subtitles to the Latin liturgy. This type of book was primarily intended for canonesses regular, religious women who had to attend the liturgical services of the Divine Office and of Mass, but had not (fully) mastered Latin. Mass and office books originated in the eastern part of the northern Netherlands, whereas the lay breviaries were intended for tertiaries from the western side of the diocese of Utrecht. These women, who followed the rule of the Third Order of St Francis, were not obliged to attend the liturgical services. In order to illustrate the nature and function of the mass and office books, the article focuses on the books of the canonesses regular of St Agnes's in Maaseik.

Abstract:
Abstract Just before 1261 the Dominican inquisitor Stephen of Bourbon (d.1261) visited an area of south-eastern France known as the Dombes, in the diocese of Lyons and there found that women were venerating a certain St Guinefort as a healer of children. He was extremely pleased to hear this, until he discovered that St Guinefort was not a holy man, but a greyhound. Furthermore, he discovered that the women of the Dombes were involved in a rite which allowed for the death of sickly babies. The medieval Church was unwavering in its condemnation of infanticide. Yet Stephen of Bourbon chose to shut down the rite, rather than impose more severe penalties, suggesting that he did not suspect ritual murder. The Church’s censure was not just a ban on a non-orthodox cult, or a theological statement that animals could not be saints, or a crackdown on magical and heretical practices – although it was all these things. It was also the condemnation of a healing cult that had got badly out of hand. The legend of St Guinefort the Holy Greyhound reveals the medieval Church engaged in a familiar struggle: to balance popular piety with orthodox teaching.

Abstract:
AbstractThis article explores the conspicuous role of singing in the hagiographical construction of saintly women in the thirteenth-century Diocese of Liège. The constellation of Lives about Liégeois women occupies a prominent place in the “origin story” of the new spirituality in the later Middle Ages. However, one aspect of these women's perceived religiosity—their musical and vocal talent—though omnipresent in the sources, has received only sparse attention from scholarship. This article focuses on two of the most important Lives in this group, those of Mary of Oignies and Christina of Sint-Truiden, and demonstrates that hagiographers, mobilizing liturgical vocabulary and ritual ideas identifiable to a local audience, consistently represented women's singing as magnificent ritual performance. By doing so, the hagiographers highlighted these women's privileged access to the divine and distinct potency as intercessors for the living and the dead. This article also intends to show the highly sophisticated ways in which Latin liturgy and its vernacular appropriation, popular ideas and scholastic theories about music were negotiated, developed, and together contributed to a distinctive religious rhetoric in the articulation of female sanctity in thirteenth-century Europe.

Abstract:
The article is devoted to studying the diocesan paperwork on appointment of widows of clergy as prosphora bakers in the 19th - early 20th centuries. It uses general scientific, historical, and special methods of document science. Despite an abundance of works devoted to the life of clergy in pre-revolutionary Russia, the issue of the Tobolsk Spiritual Consistory paperwork concerning request of the widows of clergy to appoint them prosphora bakers in the 19th - early 20th century remains unexplored. During the period of Church revival, it is of great importance to study the history of life of clergy and solution of their problems in the dioceses. The study is to identify the features of paperwork on appointment of widows of clergy as prosphora bakers in the Tobolsk diocese in the 19th - early 20th century. Having studied the previously unknown archival documents from the State Archive in Tobolsk, the author has found out what affected the duration of office-work processes and the number of their stages. Most quickly were solved problems of those women, who lived closest to the Tobolsk Spiritual Consistory, and of those, whose requests were uncontroversial. Thus, there was no need to collect the lacking data, to clarify the controversial points, to enter into correspondence, and the office work included the least number of stages — seven. The number of stages and, accordingly, time needed increased with the moteness of the widow’s place of residence from the city of Tobolsk, where the spiritual consistory was located. The main stages were nearly identical, however, sometimes additional documents were demanded. In case of appointment as prosphora bakers, these were, firstly, approvals expressing the consent of the parishioners and the clergy of churches in which women were to serve, or certificates of village councils, and secondly, tickets for travel to their places of service. These latter were not specific to this type of cases, but general for all personnel-related issues concerning placement in the service and transfer. Bureaucratization prevented widows from getting their desired place faster, but it contributed to a better preservation of documents, thus providing an opportunity for modern researchers to study valuable archival sources. The results of the research may interest archivists; they may be used in preparation of courses on records management, history of organization of office work, and of special courses on the history of office work in institutions.

Abstract:
The actualization of attention to this problem is caused by the fact that there has been a revival and development of the church and judicial system in Russia. It is obvious that the church and judicial system and canon law influenced on the formation of the Russian judicial system. The scientific novelty of this study is that it reflects the sources that were first introduced into scientific circulation, which contributes to a deeper theoretical understanding and actual enrichment of this problem. The aim of the study is to give a categorical description of the participants in court cases and the system of punishment in the Tobolsk diocese in the 17th–18th centuries, since the formation of the judicial system in the region has special features. Despite the large number of works on the history of the Russian Orthodox Church, the normative legal framework and practice of the church and judicial system were not given sufficient attention. The analysis of the material obtained in the course of this study makes it possible to fill in the existing gaps. The methodological basis of the research is the principle of historicism (from which private methods – problem-chronological, historical-comparative, historical-system and historical-typological), the principle of systematic and the principle of objectivity. The archpastors of Tobolsk had broad powers in church and judicial matters, based on the decrees of the tsar and the patriarch. To their help were appointed clerical elders, customers, the desyati and the pyatidesyati priests, the vicars, desyatilniy, deacons, boyars' children, thanes, lenders, bailiffs and nedelschick etc. A particularly acute problem in the study period was family relations, which was aggravated by the lack of a sufficient number of women in Siberia. The result of the study should be a description of the participants in cases and punishments considered by the church and judicial authorities of the Tobolsk diocese. Most of the church court cases concerned certificates of illegal marriages, divorce, forced marriage and theft of church property, dishonest behaviour of clergies and clergymen, etc.

Abstract:
Purpose According to Gazette Review report 2018, Malawi is reportedly the lowest-income country in southeastern Africa. It has a population of 19 million people, of which 70% are women and children. A powerful women’s organization was established to support the increased care and status of the women in the community. Methods Malawi’s Catholic Women’s Organization (CWO), with the Diocese of Mangochi, submitted approval for comprehensive breast examination (CBE) and basic patient navigation training, which was completed in May 2018, that targeted remote communities without resources for early breast cancer detection. The rural population-based data are incomplete, though it is commonly held that the high mortality rate from breast cancer is a result of a lack of education and transportation, cultural stigmas, a lack of support, and other barriers to care. Breast cancer is the most common cause of cancer death in women in Mangochi. The CWO routinely brings outside medical experts to address health care disparity and invited a breast care and cancer registered nurse to address these barriers and provide training in viable and sustainable solutions to overcome these obstacles. Results Trusted community members of an existing women’s organization were trained in breast physiology, anomalies, simplified medical reporting, and navigation to existing facilities for diagnostics and treatment. The following challenges were addressed: remote locations of communities without available imaging, early detection of anomalies without the benefit of local mammography or ultrasound, a poor to nonexistent belief that breast cancer can be cured with early diagnosis, poor to nonexistent communication and transportation means, and late presentation of breast cancer once diagnosed. With training, the following was achieved: education of CWO women of Mangochi in breast exams, reporting, and navigation pathways for diagnosis; breast molds (eight), PowerPoint presentations, and reporting tools were developed as educational tools; PowerPoints were created for breast education, breast anomaly education, CBE, self-breast examination, reporting, data collection, workshop start-up, and patient education; and ongoing support for breast cancer program development. Conclusion Collaborative and multidisciplinary work to mitigate the effects of breast cancer will greatly increase survivability among the women of Mangochi. Targeting the communities through the trusted women who live in the same villages allows for a unique outreach for ongoing, routine education through workshops, CBE, and supported efforts to overcome barriers through planned patient flow pathways to diagnostics and treatment as needed.

Abstract In the 1980s, the question of women’s ordination in the Anglican Church of Kenya (ACK) caused a controversy in Kirinyaga diocese, in which Archbishop David Gitari (1937–2013) played a critical role as an advocate for women. This controversy is just one example of how African Christian women have faced multiple material and theological obstacles to ordination, both in the Anglican Church and in other churches. Through an analysis of institutional texts we show how the issue of women’s ordination has been addressed in formal Anglican decision-making processes. We also outline the patriarchal attitudes that characterized the wider discourse of women’s ordination in Kenya and in the Anglican Communion, and discuss how this discourse informed Gitari’s intervention. Opposition to women’s ordination is only one facet of sexism in the ACK, as was implicitly recognized by Gitari in his wider project of ‘holistic development’.
