The Autobiography of Elizabeth M. Sewell (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from The Autobiography of Elizabeth M. Sewell I have been entrusted by my aunt, Miss Elizabeth Sewell, with her autobiography, and feel that I am carrying out her wishes in having it published, so that many to whom the record Of her life will be Of interest may have it in her own words. Some Of my friends have urged me to add to this record further extracts from her journal, so I have inserted them with the chapters in the auto biography, to correspond as nearly as possible with regard to dates. Any account Of her life would be incomplete without some notice Of her educational and literary work, and Of the deep interest she manifested in all schemes for women's welfare therefore a fe...

Religious Organizations in the United States

  • Categories: Law
  • Type: Book

  • Publisher: Unknown

This book examines the legal structures within which religious organizations conduct their activities. The legal structures of religious organizations encompass not only their corporate organizations, but the many ways employment, property ownership, decisions regarding forms of ministry, and participation in society define a particular institution. The authors, from a variety of practicing, religious, and scholarly backgrounds, provide a range of perspectives -- both practical and theoretical -- on these issues. The book fills a void in the current resources, providing a detailed description of policies, identity, and the effect of legal rules on church structures. Contributors include Patricia Carlson, Angela Carmella, Mark Chopko, Carl Esbeck, Patty Gerstenblith, H. Reese Hansen, Donald Hermann, Bernadette Kenny, Douglas Laycock, William Marshall, Martin Marty, John Massad, Patrick Schiltz, Elizabeth Sewell and Rhys Williams.

Silence and Voice in the Study of Contentious Politics

Silence and Voice in the Study of Contentious Politics

The aim of this book is to highlight and begin to give 'voice' to some of the notable 'silences' evident in recent years in the study of contentious politics. The seven co-authors take up seven specific topics in the volume: the relationship between emotions and contention; temporality in the study of contention; the spatial dimensions of contention; leadership in contention; the role of threat in contention; religion and contention; and contention in the context of demographic and life-course processes. The seven spent three years involved in an ongoing project designed to take stock, and attempt a partial synthesis, of various literatures that have grown up around the study of non-routine or contentious politics. As such, it is likely to be viewed as a groundbreaking volume that not only undermines conventional disciplinary understanding of contentious politics, but also lays out a number of provocative new research agendas.

The Field of Nonsense

The Field of Nonsense

This magnificent and witty study by an unrecognized innovator seeks to define and explore the nature of "nonsense" in literature. Relying mainly on readings of Lewis Carroll and Edward Lear, Elizabeth Sewell not only sets out plausible boundaries for what or does not constitutes gibberish, but elucidates just how much of what is considered "sensible" writing must rely on nonsense for its power. Comparable only to the greatest works of Viktor Shklovsky, The Field of Nonsense is a masterpiece of American literary criticism.
