Hybridity in Nineteenth-Century Women’S Defenses of Women’S Preaching ABSTRACT Title of Document: A GENRE OF DEFENSE: HYBRIDITY IN NINETEENTH-CENTURY WOMEN’S DEFENSES OF WOMEN’S PREACHING. Lisa Dawn Zimmerelli, Ph.D., 2009 Directed By: Professor Jane Donawerth, English This dissertation explores how nineteenth-century Protestant women negotiated genre in order to manage more effectively the controversial rhetorical project of defending women’s right to preach. After providing a comprehensive overview of the debate of women’s preaching in America, this project presents a genre study of a subset of these defenses: those women who do not adhere strictly to their “home” genres, but rather demonstrate a range of generic blending and manipulation in their defenses of women’s preaching. This study further reads religion as an integral identity category that was the seat for other activist rhetorics; by extension, then, women’s defenses of women’s preaching is an important site of activism and rhetorical discourse. Foote, Willard, and Woosley are rhetoricians and theologians; the hybrid form of their books provides them with a textual space for the intersections of their rhetoric and theology. This study examines three books within the tradition of defenses of women’s preaching—Julia Foote’s A Brand Plucked from the Fire (1879), Frances Willard’s Woman in the Pulpit (1888), and Louisa Woosley’s Shall Woman Preach? (1891)—as representative of the journey a genre takes from early adaptation to solidification, what Carolyn Miller calls “typified rhetorical action” (151) and as the containers for an egalitarian theology. Foote adapts the genre of spiritual autobiography to include the oral and textual discourses of letters, sermons, and hymn in order to present her holiness theology. Willard experiments with the epistolary genre in order to present her Social Gospel theology. Woosley includes all of the genres of defenses of women’s preaching: sermon, spiritual autobiography, editorial letter, and speech; she also appropriates Masonic rhetoric in order to merge the defense of women’s preaching with another kind of defense prevalent at the time: the scriptural defense of women. Significantly, each woman resolves “separate spheres” ideology by suggesting a new religious sphere where men and women participate equally: Foote’s sphere is the sphere of holiness; Willard’s is her reconceptualized Kingdom of God; and Woosley’s is a world of action, where men and women, after ritualized initiation, are responsible for building the temple of God.

  • Female Preaching in Early Nineteenth-Century America by Catherine A
    20 Copyright 2009 The Center for Christian Ethics at Baylor University Female Preaching in Early Nineteenth-Century America BY CATHERINE A. BREKUS In the Second Great Awakening more than one hundred women crisscrossed the country as itinerant preachers, holding meetings in barns, schools, or outside in fields. They were the first group of women to speak publicly in America. Why have virtually all of them been forgotten? ome argued that she was “bold and shameless,” a disgrace to her fami- ly and to the evangelical movement. Others insisted that she was the S“instrument of God,” a humble woman who had given up everything for Christ. Few women in early nineteenth-century America provoked more admi- ration, criticism, and controversy than Harriet Livermore. She was the daughter of a congressman and the grand-daughter of a senator, but after an emotional conversion experience, she renounced her privileged life in order to become a female preacher. Reputed to be a gifted evangelist who was also a beautiful singer, she became so popular that she was allowed to preach in front of Congress four times between 1827 and 1844, each time to huge crowds. According to a Washington newspaper, more than a thousand people assembled in the Hall of Representatives to hear her preach in 1827, and hundreds more gathered outside to catch a glimpse of her. President John Quincy Adams had to sit on the steps leading up to her feet because he could not find a free chair. Harriet Livermore was the best-known female preacher of her day, but she was part of a larger community of evangelical women, both white and African-American, who claimed to have been divinely inspired to preach Female Preaching in Early Nineteenth-Century America 21 the gospel.

ALAN ROSE, B.A. Volume 49 October 1993 CHOSEN BY GOD: THE FEMALE TRAVELLING PREACHERS OF EARLY PRIMITIVE METHODISM The Wesley Historical Society Lecture 1993 t is just over a hundred years since the last Primitive Methodist female travelling preacher died. Elizabeth Bultitude (1809-1890) I had become a travelling preacher in 1832 and she superannuated after 30 years in 1862, dying in 1890. Of all the female itinerants the first, Sarah Kirkland (1794-1880), and the last, Elizabeth Bultitude, are the best known, but this is just the tip of the iceberg. Forty years ago Wesley Swift, wrote in the Proceedings about the female preach­ ers of Primitive Methodism: We have been able to identify more than forty women itinerants, but the full total must be considerably more.\ This was the starting point of my inquiry. First it is necessary to take a brief look at the whole question of women preaching. The Society of Friends, because they maintained both sexes equally received Inner Light, insisted that anyone who felt so called should be allowed to preach. So it was that many women within the Quaker movement were able to exercise their gifts of preaching without restriction. Many women undertook preaching tours both in this country and abroad, finding release from male-dominated society and religion and equal status with I Proceedings, xxix, p 79. 78 PROCEEDINGS OF THE WFSLEY HISTORICAL SocIETY men in preaching the word of God.

Imbler As the recently constituted nation was expanding beyond the settled northeast, in- formation on a variety of subjects was carried by an increasing number of newly estab- lished local presses. Presidential historian Doris Kearns Goodwin observes, “With few public entertainments in rural America (c. 1850s), villages and farmers regarded the spo- ken word and political debates as riveting spectator sports.” She continues, “Following such debates, the dueling remarks were regularly printed in their entirety in newspapers then reprinted in pamphlet form…where they provoked discourse over a wide space and prolonged time.”1 While her analysis refers to the general population, it also reflects the character of the Stone-Campbell people who were heavily invested in publications.

  • Churches of Christ and the Lord's Supper
    Churches of Christ and the Lord’s Supper: Twentieth Century Perspectives* John Mark Hicks Lipscomb University Nashville, Tennessee Alexander Campbell’s famous sentence, “In the house of God there is always the table of the Lord,” embodies the essence of Stone- Campbell Eucharistic theology and practice.1 This simple sentence describes the weekly celebration of the Lord’s Supper on the Lord’s Day in the presence of God as a joyous feast. The “house of God” is the weekly assembly of the saints where God and his people meet. Those assembled “must feel” themselves as “specially [sic] in the presence of the Lord, not as on other days or in other places.”2 Campbell possessed “a deep and solemn conviction that the [assembly] is the house of God—the temple of the Holy Spirit—and that we are, especially and emphatically, in the presence of the Lord while we are engaged in his worship.” Every occasion of the “assemblies of the saints” is a “meeting with the Lord.”3 Against the backdrop of Scottish Presbyterianism and Independents as well as in the context of a typological hermeneutic, “table” is a significant theological and liturgical term for Campbell. Extending the typological hermeneutic by recalling the language of Leviticus 23, Campbell calls the day of “assembly” a “day of rest, of peace, of joy, a festival sacred to the Lord.”4 Presbyterian sacramental solemnities, whether Scottish or American, were often characterized by the intense practice of penitential spiritual disciplines, including _________ *This paper was presented at the meeting of the Stone- Campbell Dialogue in June 2007 at University Christian Church, Austin, Texas.

    00:00:00 Oliver Wang Host Hi everyone. Before we get started today, just wanted to let you know that for the next month’s worth of episodes, we have a special guest co-host sitting in for Morgan Rhodes, who is busy with some incredible music supervision projects. Both Morgan and I couldn’t be more pleased to have arts and culture writer and critic, Ernest Hardy, sitting in for Morgan. And if you recall, Ernest joined us back in 2017 for a wonderful conversation about Sade’s Love Deluxe; which you can find in your feed, in case you want to refamiliarize yourself with Ernest’s brilliance or you just want to listen to a great episode. 00:00:35 Music Music “Crown Ones” off the album Stepfather by People Under The Stairs 00:00:41 Oliver Host Hello, I’m Oliver Wang. 00:00:43 Ernest Host And I’m Ernest Hardy, sitting in for Morgan Rhodes. You’re listening Hardy to Heat Rocks. 00:00:47 Oliver Host Every episode we invite a guest to join us to talk about a heat rock. You know, an album that’s hot, hot, hot. And today, we will be taking a trip to Rydell High School to revisit the iconic soundtrack to the 1978 smash movie-musical, Grease. 00:01:02 Music Music “You’re The One That I Want” off the album Grease: The Original Soundtrack.
