Redefining Female Religious Life (eBook, ePUB)

French Ursulines and English Ladies in Seventeenth-Century Catholicism

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

This book explores two seventeenth-century female congregations that became, in France and England, the embodiment of new feminine efforts to become actively involved in the Catholic Reformation. Despite the differences in their national political and religious backgrounds, both the French Ursulines and the Institute of English Ladies shared the same aim. They wanted to revitalize the links between the Catholic faith and the people, reaching out of the cloister and into the world by educating girls who would later become wives and mothers.
