The Gendered Nature of Quaker Charity Abstract For a holistic understanding of violence, the study of its antithesis, nonviolence, is necessary. A primary example of nonviolence is charity. Not only does charity prevent violence from rogue vagrants, but it also is an act of kindness. In seventeenth-century England, when a third of the population lived below the poverty line, charity was crucial. Especially successful were Quaker charity communities and the early involvement of Quaker women in administering aid. This is remarkable, considering that most parish- appointed overseers of the poor were usually male. What explains this phenomenon that women became the main administrators of Quaker charity? Filling in this gap of knowledge would shed further light on Quaker gender dynamics and the Quaker values that are still found in American culture today. Keywords Quakers, charity Disciplines History of Religion Comments This paper was part of the 2013-2014 Penn Humanities Forum on Violence.

  • Wider Quaker Fellowship, Aotearoa New Zealand
    WIDER QUAKER FELLOWSHIP, AOTEAROA NEW ZEALAND LETTER 145 MAY 2018 19 Exeter Place, Rotorua 3015, New Zealand. [email protected] Dear Friends, We’ve been hearing a lot about women’s rights recently. I’m not at all sure that we know just how long this has been a source of contention, or indeed how negatively women have been regarded since times past. Attitudes persisting in many quarters today shock those of us who have come to regard all human beings as individuals with equal rights to respect and opportunity. Did you know that in 16th and 17th century England women were considered by many to be “the silly and weaker Sex” and “naturally apt unto all mischiefe” (Anonymous, 1646)? John Knox, the Protestant reformer, maintained that women were physically frail, mentally feeble and lacking in leadership ability. In 1558 he wrote an article entitled “The First Blast of the Trumpet Against the Monstrous Regiment of Women”, using biblical references to reinforce his view that women should be submissive and subject to men in all things. In other words, they should be seen but not publicly heard. Early Quakers, with their belief that God is directly and equally accessible to all human beings, challenged this attitude. Against considerable opposition they encouraged women to express their spirituality. From 1667 George Fox was instrumental in setting up women’s meetings in England, Ireland, Barbados and New England. In this and throughout his life from 1652 he was supported by a remarkable woman - Margaret Fell. I have decided to devote this letter to an account of the life and work of the woman who did so much for the Quaker movement in its earliest days.

  • Inspiration from Quaker Women of the Past
    1 Marcelle Martin Friends Journal November 2011 https://www.friendsjournal.org/3011112/ Inspiration From Quaker Women of the Past When my life was overturned by unexpected mystical and spiritual experiences, I began a search for understanding. I asked friends about their spiritual experiences and dreams, and searched in books both old and new. In the Bible I found many accounts of direct experiences of God or God’s messages, and I read about the mystics and saints. When I became a Quaker, I was directed to read the journals of George Fox and John Woolman. All this reading was wonderfully helpful, but after a while it began to disturb me that most of the accounts were about men. Several women in the Bible, such as Hannah, become the mothers of prophets, but only a few scattered names of women prophets are mentioned, with little detail. The accounts of women mystics I found were mostly about Catholic nuns living in convents or monastic communities. Were there women whose call required them to travel and to speak and teach publically? Among the Quakers, I learned of Margaret Fell in the 17th century and Lucretia Mott in the 19th. Margaret Fell was the most prominent female among the early Quakers. She played nurtured and organized the fledging Quaker community and wrote more tracts than any other Quaker woman in her time. She deserves to be called a mother of Quakerism. However, there were hundreds of other seventeenth century Quaker women who preached publicly, traveled in the ministry, or wrote tracts about their faith.
