The convent, established in 1854 in central Singapore, is now the ‗premier lifestyle destination‘, CHIJMES. I show that the Sisters were early providers of social services and girls‘ education, with an orphanage, women‘s refuge and schools for girls. They survived the turbulent years of the Japanese Occupation of Singapore and adapted to the priorities of the new government after independence, expanding to become the largest cloistered convent in Southeast Asia.

  • Convents in Kraków in the 20 Th Century
    PRACe GeoGRAFICzne, zeszyt 137 Instytut Geografii i Gospodarki Przestrzennej UJ Kraków 2014, 159 – 173 doi : 10.4467/20833113PG.14.014.2159 Convents in KraKów in the 20 th Century Justyna Liro Abstract : Religious orders are clearly noticeable in the geographic space of major cities in Poland. The purpose of the paper is to analyse the location factors for religious orders in Kraków, including the location of the most important houses and their related activity in the city. Religious orders have been present in Kraków since its beginnings. The paper covers convents run by the Roman Catholic Church within the borders of Kraków. The paper is focused on the 20th century when a considerable increase of the number of religious orders and general spatial development of the city was observed. The data for this paper was obtained from church and secular sources, as well as land surveys. In addition, changes in the spatial distribution of religious orders and monastic houses operating in Kraków in the 20th century as well as modifications in their functions were analysed. The largest concentration of monastic houses is Kraków’s historic core. The actual distribution of convents is a result of centuries- old traditions and depends on numerous factors such as the capital city function of Kraków in effect until the end of the 16th century and the rank of religious administration ( bishopric ). A further increase in the number of monastic houses was also due to the spatial growth of the city and the general development of monastic life. Religious orders were characterised by various endogenous and exogenous functions.

  • Mary Ward Lecture February 11Th 2009 Cambridge Divinity
    MARY WARD LECTURE FEBRUARY 11TH 2009 CAMBRIDGE DIVINITY SCHOOL On the feast of the Annunciation, 1586 Margaret Clitherow, a butcher’s wife of York, suffered the horrific peine forte et dure of being crushed to death for harbouring a Catholic priest. This barbaric punishment was the legal sanction imposed on those who refused to testify during trial. Margaret’s silence was both a denial that she was guilty of any crime and an attempt to save her family and neighbours from having to testify. Though silent in death, Margaret’s life story resounded throughout the recusant Catholic community and beyond, told by John Mush, a priest whom she had sheltered. Mush was her spiritual director and later that of Mary Ward, whose cousin Francis Ingleby, another priest sheltered by Margaret Clitherow, died a martyr’s death on the Knavesmire in York in June of the same year. This web of connections was part of an extended network of recusant women and men whose enforced silence was broken by the irrepressible force of story and memory. This study looks at the theme of silence in the life of Mary Ward and those who sought to keep her story alive. Positively, contemplative silence operated as the ground of Mary’s remarkable vocation. Negatively, it was imposed on her and on her memory long after her death by a church that failed to understand the specific and universal value of that vocation. It stems from a more general silence imposed historically on women both in the church and in society as a whole.

When descriptive legends do appear on nautical charts, they are generally quite similar from one cartographer to another, from one language to another (Latin, Catalan, Italian), and even across the centuries: there are some legends on early sixteenth-century nautical charts which are very similar indeed to the corresponding legends on late fourteenth-century charts.
