However, of less academic concern up to this point is the aesthetic qualities that define much of what is said and done within the context of Black Religion. Recognizing the centrality of the black body for black religious thought and life, this book proposes a conversation concerning various dimensions of the aesthetic considerations and qualities of Black Religion as found in various parts of the world, including the the Americas, the Caribbean, Africa, and Europe. In this respect, Black Religion is simply meant to connote the religious orientations and arrangements of people of African descent across the globe.Religion and sociologyEthnology—AfricaReligionCulture—Study and teachingAfrican AmericansChristianitySociology of Religionhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/X22210African Culturehttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/411030Religious Studies, generalhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/1A0000Regional and Cultural Studieshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/411000African American Culturehttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/411020Christianityhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/1A3000AfricaReligionReligion and sociology.Ethnology—Africa.Religion.Culture—Study and teaching.African Americans.Christianity.Sociology of Religion.African Culture.Religious Studies, general.Regional and Cultural Studies.African American Culture.Christianity.200.89/96200.8996Pinn Aauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut1585147Pinn Anthony B872740BOOK9910792328203321Black Religion and Aesthetics3869456UNINA04443nam 2200697 a 450 991077704620332120230207224455.01-281-12563-60-226-25683-9978661112563910.7208/9780226256832(CKB)1000000000412784(EBL)408602(OCoLC)299127270(SSID)ssj0000275043(PQKBManifestationID)11211795(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000275043(PQKBWorkID)10330973(PQKB)10864163(MiAaPQ)EBC408602(DE-B1597)524038(OCoLC)824142074(DE-B1597)9780226256832(Au-PeEL)EBL408602(CaPaEBR)ebr10210005(CaONFJC)MIL112563(EXLCZ)99100000000041278419961203d1997 uy 0engurnn#---|||||txtccrThe worth of women[electronic resource] wherein is clearly revealed their nobility and their superiority to men /Moderata Fonte (Modesta Pozzo) ; edited and translated by Virginia CoxChicago, Ill.

Moderata Fonte was the pseudonym of Modesta Pozzo (1555-92), a Venetian woman who was something of an anomaly. Neither cloistered in a convent nor as liberated from prevailing codes of decorum as a courtesan might be, Pozzo was a respectable, married mother who produced literature in genres that were commonly considered "masculine"-the chivalric romance and the literary dialogue. This work takes the form of the latter, with Fonte creating a conversation among seven Venetian noblewomen. The dialogue explores nearly every aspect of women's experience in both theoretical and practical terms. These women, who differ in age and experience, take as their broad theme men's curious hostility toward women and possible cures for it. Through this witty and ambitious work, Fonte seeks to elevate women's status to that of men, arguing that women have the same innate abilities as men and, when similarly educated, prove their equals. Through this dialogue, Fonte provides a picture of the private and public lives of Renaissance women, ruminating on their roles in the home, in society, and in the arts. A fine example of Renaissance vernacular literature, this book is also a testament to the enduring issues that women face, including the attempt to reconcile femininity with ambition.Other voice in early modern Europe.WomenEarly works to 1800WomenSocial conditionsEarly works to 1800WomenHistoryRenaissance, 1450-1600women, gender studies, italian, italy, europe, european, renaissance, venice, venetian, moderata fonte, modesta pozzo, motherhood, marriage, literature, literary study, femininity, chivalric romance, dialogue, conversation, noblewomen, nobility, nobles, status, private vs public, vernacular, ambition, social expectations, cultural, unity, tradition, fortunes, influence, equality, giustizia delle donne, worth.WomenWomenSocial conditionsWomenHistory305.4Fonte Moderata1555-1592.402387Cox Virginia221360MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910777046203321The worth of women3806094UNINA
