  • Easter 6 2017 Acts 8: 5-17 There Is So Much Lovable Material in the Acts of Apostles, Fifth Book in the New Testament. We Hear
    Easter 6 2017 Acts 8: 5-17 There is so much lovable material in the Acts of Apostles, fifth book in the New Testament. We hear it every Sunday in the Easter season as first reading. We mostly ignore it. Church officials have cut out the colorful material, thinking it trivial, an error I will now remedy. We shouldn’t be surprised at the book’s lovability. It was written by Luke the gentle physician, author of the third gospel. He was a real literary writer, adept in the creation of character. He is therefore like the Russian writer Chekhov who could be funny and poignant in the same story or play, and was also a medical doctor. When you examine someone dressed in a skimpy hospital gown for medical purposes, I suspect it is both touching and absurd. I often extol Luke’s unique contributions to the Jesus story (contrasting with dull, didactic approaches): he gives us the good Samaritan, prodigal son, penitent thief--brilliant characters—and, best of all, the Christmas story from Mary’s viewpoint, with the angels and shepherds. A sequel is always inferior to the original book (think of the attempt for Gone with the Wind). Acts is a sequel, yet has many delightful episodes. For example, the Christians are being persecuted and Peter is imprisoned. “Peter in chains” is Fr Peter’s preferred patron-saint story, grimly shackled as he is to school duties. An angel (what Chekhov makes a walk-on role, Luke makes an angel) comes through the prison walls at the silence of midnight, with a key (why would an angel need one?), releasing Peter from his cell, and leading him through the empty streets.

  • Infanticide in Early Modem Gennany: the Experience of Augsburg, Memmingen, Ulm, and Niirdlingen, 1500-1800
    Infanticide in Early Modem Gennany: the experience of Augsburg, Memmingen, Ulm, and Niirdlingen, 1500-1800 Margaret Brannan Lewis Charlottesville, Virginia M.A., History, University of Virginia, 2008 B.A., History and Gennan, Furman University, 2006 A Dissertation presented to the Graduate Faculty of the University of Virginia in Candidacy for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of History University of Virginia May, 2012 i Abstract Between 1500 and 1800, over 100 women and men were arrested for infanticide or abortion in the city of Augsburg in southern Germany. At least 100 more were arrested for the same crime in the three smaller cities of Ulm, Memmingen, and Nördlingen. Faced with harsh punishments as well as social stigma if found pregnant out of wedlock, many women in early modern Europe often saw abortion or infanticide as their only option. At the same time, town councils in these southern German cities increasingly considered it their responsibility to stop this threat to the godly community and to prosecute cases of infanticide or abortion and to punish (with death) those responsible. The story of young, unmarried serving maids committing infanticide to hide their shame is well-known, but does not fully encompass the entirety of how infanticide was perceived in the early modern world. This work argues that these cases must be understood in a larger cultural context in which violence toward children was a prevalent anxiety, apparent in popular printed literature and educated legal, medical, and religious discourse alike. In the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries, this anxiety was expressed in and reinforced by woodcuts featuring mass murders of families, deformed babies, and cannibalism of infants by witches and other dark creatures.
