Sinossi
Excerpt from Lectures on the Calling of a Christian Woman: And Her Training to Fulfil It; Delivered During the Season of Lent, A. D. 1883
I ask the reader of the following lectures to bear in mind: I. That they were written for my own people, and in the line of my usual pastoral work. 2. That they were not intended for pub lication. 3. That I now give them to the public in my own defense, because of the misrepresen tation of my views by critics who had not the means of knowing exactly what I said, or all that I said. They are printed just as they were delivered, with scarcely the change of a word; and, in order to comply with the request of the publishers that they should appear at the ear liest possible day, I am obliged to omit add ing a large number of notes and quotations by which, if more time were allowed me, I should have endeavored to fortify, by strong authoriproceeds. In their present crude state, these conferences may, perhaps, serve only as a brake on some wheels which appear to me to be volving too fast for safety.

Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book focuses on the calling and training of Christian women in the Victorian Era. The author argues that the rise of new ideas about women's rights, duties, and education in the late 1800s was part of a larger movement to revolutionize society. These changes sparked concerns, especially among the clergy, that such a revolution would produce anarchy. At the heart of this book is an exploration of the differences between men and women, and a discussion of how these differences should be reflected in their roles and responsibilities. The author traces the degradation of women in pagan societies and emphasizes the elevation of women through Christianity. Importantly, the author argues this elevation and liberation is only possible through a strong connection with the Church and warns that women who stray from Christian principles risk a return to their former state of oppression. Ultimately, this book provides valuable insights into the complex and contested social, religious, and intellectual world of Victorian womanhood.
