GESCHWIND This dissertation focuses on the development of devotional images of Mary Magdalene, in Venice and Rome during the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries, pertaining to the reform of prostitution. Although the Magdalene has a rich history in Christian tradition and art, my examination focuses on images of the Penitent Magdalene, both alone and in a group, related to the campaign against prostitution in early modern Italy. Images discussed in this dissertation include: Religious chapbooks dedicated to the subject of the Conversion of the Magdalene (Figs. 1, 2), analyzed in conjunction to their secular counterparts, prints and moralizing broadsheets dedicated to the Lives and Miserable Ends of Prostitutes (Fig. 3); Carlo Caliariʼs Madonna and Child, Saint Mary Magdalene and Convertite for the Venetian Casa del Soccorso (Fig. 4), examined in opposition to Gaulliʼs frescoes at the Casa Marta in Rome (Fig. 5) and Guliegmo Corteseʼs Christ in the House of Mary and Martha (Fig. 6); and two prominent versions of Titianʼs Penitent Magdalene created for Vittoria Colonna and Cardinal Federico Borromeo (Figs. 7, 8). The cities of Venice and Rome are the focus of ii my analysis, representing in microcosm the Italian peninsula and efforts to reform prostitution there through the use of Magdalene imagery. The approach of my dissertation emphasizes a range of patronage, including the open market, corporations, and influential individuals. My purpose in this dissertation is to present a comprehensive study of the complex purposing of the Magdaleneʼs image as a religious model and a social model for the reformation of prostitution in Venice and Rome from 1500 to 1700. The years 1500 and 1700 are the parameters of this investigation, coinciding with the introduction of syphilis in the early sixteenth century and the incarceration of prostitutes at the end of the seventeenth century. It is my conclusion in this dissertation that Magdalene imagery in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries can be inextricably linked to prostitution reform, and that the images presented in this study were created in order to persuade, reinforce, and assist the intended viewer to participate in the popular campaign to decrease prostitution in early modern Venice and Rome. iii LIST OF ILLUSTRATIONS Figure 1.

  • Magdalene Lauridsen (1873–1957): Danish Pioneer in the Field of Home Economics
    Annette Rasmussen and Karen E. Andreasen Aalborg University Magdalene Lauridsen (1873–1957): Danish pioneer in the field of home economics ABSTRACT: Magdalene Lauridsen (1873–1957) founded the first Danish school of home economics 1895 and later, in 1903, the first teacher training college of home economics and housekeeping. She initiated the Association of Teachers in Housekeeping and Home Economics, and the Danish Home Economics and Housekeeping Movement. She fought for the educational rights of women from especially rural areas and was very active in representing the women’s movement in local politics. In this paper, we ask, what characterised her activities in a wider historical perspective and how did she happen to play this particular role in adult education? We analyse these questions by drawing on Nordic studies of women’s role in contemporary society and thus frame it by the history sociology of gender. The empirical material includes both primary and secondary sources to illuminate the life and activities of Magdalene Lauridsen. We conclude the analysis by emphasizing the influences from abroad and from growing up in an active Folk High School environment that made her a pioneer in adult education. KEYWORDS: Home economics, woman pioneer, folk high school movement, education in rural areas, domestication. Introduction Magdalene Lauridsen (1873–1957) was one of the most intriguing fig- ures of Scandinavian adult education during the first half of the 20th century. At a time when women’s social roles were restricted to caring for the home, to providing for a husband, and to having limited access to education, she was a pioneer in launching itinerant courses and evening classes for farmers’ wives and other country homemakers.

  • SELF-FLAGELLATION in the EARLY MODERN ERA Patrick
    SELF-FLAGELLATION IN THE EARLY MODERN ERA Patrick Vandermeersch Self-fl agellation is often understood as self-punishment. History teaches us, however, that the same physical act has taken various psychologi- cal meanings. As a mass movement in the fourteenth century, it was primarily seen as an act of protest whereby the fl agellants rejected the spiritual authority and sacramental power of the clergy. In the sixteenth century, fl agellation came to be associated with self-control, and a new term was coined in order to designate it: ‘discipline’. Curiously, in some religious orders this shift was accompanied by a change in focus: rather than the shoulders or back, the buttocks were to be whipped instead. A great controversy immediately arose but was silenced when the possible sexual meaning of fl agellation was realized – or should we say, constructed? My hypothesis is that the change in both the name and the way fl agellation was performed indicates the emergence of a new type of modern subjectivity. I will suggest, furthermore, that this requires a further elaboration of Norbert Elias’s theory of the ‘civiliz- ing process’. A Brief Overview of the History of Flagellation1 Let us start with the origins of religious self-fl agellation. Although there were many ascetic practices in the monasteries at the time of the desert fathers, self-fl agellation does not seem to have been among them. With- out doubt many extraordinary rituals were performed. Extreme degrees 1 The following historical account summarizes the more detailed historical research presented in my La chair de la passion.

Is there anyone there?“ Marguerite called out loudly. “Yes, right beside you,” I replied, trying to reassure her. People who are dying sometimes wonder whether they are still alive and with people they know. As their priest, I have heard this question a number of times during visits with terminally ill patients. But Marguerite repeated her question despite my response: She wasn’t calling to me at all, and it took me a moment to realize that. I had found Marguerite in bed, on oxygen, and far from her normal, alert self. She was one of my favorites among the congregation of the small Episcopalian church that I serve in Barrytown, New York. She proved to be the best critic of sermons I have ever met. A formidable professional, she had been a social worker in Manhattan and possessed a passion for children’s rights that did not wane with her retirement. After she passed the age of ninety, congestive heart failure gradually sapped life from her. She couldn’t travel to church any longer, but we made it a point to meet at her home late in the afternoon once or twice a month to talk politics, gardening, and religion, drink gin and tonics, and pray together.

They offer a remarkable juxtaposition in terms of their physical scale and cultural history and are the two most interesting cities in Lombardy. Under the Romans Milan became a major settlement at the centre of a vital road network, eventually capital of the Western Roman Empire and an important Christian centre under St Ambrose. Thereafter, Lombardy, as it came to be known, was occupied by many of the German and other tribes who crossed over the Alps. As the outline of Medieval Italy emerged, Milan became an independent Duchy under the feudal control of the new, Holy Roman Empire, an entity dominated by mostly German dynasties. Cremona’s early history was chequered. Destroyed both by the Romans and Lombards it was later revived as a free commune. Though it fought against its Milanese neighbours, it eventually became a part of the Duchy of Milan, after which it enjoyed several centuries of prosperity. Meanwhile the Visconti Dukes of Milan dominated local affairs and became major patrons of the arts, creating a court of unrivalled wealth and beauty.
