Origins of the Magdalene Laundries
The convents, asylums, and laundries that once comprised the Magdalene institutions are the subject of this work. Though originally half-way homes for prostitutes in the Middle Ages, these homes often became forced-labor institutions, particularly in Ireland. Examining the laundries within the context of a growing world capitalist economy, the work argues that the process of colonization, and of defining a national image, determined the nature and longevity of the Magdalene Laundries. This process developed differently in Ireland, where the last laundry closed in 1996. The book focuses on the devolution of the significance of Mary Magdalene as a metaphor for the organization: from an affluent, strong supporter of Jesus to a simple, fallen woman.

The Magdalene Version: Secret Wisdom from a Gnostic Mystery School
Here is the real voice of Mary Magdalene, giving secret teachings from her Mystery School! During the years that followed the crucifixion, a Gnostic group met in Midsummer Gatherings on the island of Cyprus. Channeling by the angelic source Alariel has revealed eight Keynote Speeches by Mary Magdalene during these Gatherings. These speeches show a profound understanding of the Way that Jeshua taught. This is forbidden knowledge—forbidden by the Church because it could lead to the enlightenment and empowerment of those who heard it and applied it in their lives. The Pure Transmission which forms the teachings of Mary Magdalene has been restored to us through angelic intervention at the end of the planetary cycle. These teachings will change your perception of Mary Magdalene forever!
Mary Magdalene Revealed
--WALL STREET JOURNAL BESTSELLER-- The Gospel of Mary Magdalene reveals a very different love story from the one we've come to refer to as Christianity. Harvard-trained theologian Meggan Watterson leads us verse by verse through Mary's gospel to illuminate the powerful teachings it contains. A gospel, as ancient and authentic as any of the gospels that the Christian bible contains, was buried deep in the Egyptian desert after an edict was sent out in the 4th century to have all copies of it destroyed. Fortunately, some rebel monks were wise enough to refuse-and thanks to their disobedience and spiritual bravery, we have several manuscripts of the only gospel that was written in the name of a...
Mary Magdalene
Mary Magdalene -- probably the Bible's most enigmatic and controversial figure -- has fired imaginations for nearly two thousand years. In the search for the true story, the author takes readers through the gospels of the New Testament, the Gnostic Gospels, and Nag Hammadi texts, as well as through the High Middle Ages when adoration of Mary Magdalene was at its height.Dr. Ralls considers both the Western tradition of Mary Magdalene, which documents her escaping persecution and landing in the south of France with her family and many others; and the Eastern tradition, which describes her ending her days as a hermit in Ephesus. All is considered -- from Mary Magdalene's importance to medieval pilgrims to the more contentious theories of her supposed marriage to Jesus.
The Magdalene
A story that, for too long, has been crying out to be told’ Henry Lincoln, author of Holy Blood, Holy Grail ‘The heights that the climb may lead you to are in proportion to the depths to which you are willing to delve’ Mary Magdalene is arguably one of Jesus’s best-known disciples and yet we know very little about her. From the writing of the New Testament to the filming of The Da Vinci Code, her image has been repeatedly conscripted, contorted and contradicted. Mary is considered by many as an outcast, underserving of Jesus’s love. In this follow up book to The Seer, we join Lars Muhl as he seeks to find out more about the intimate relationship between Jesus (Yeshua) and Mary Magdalene. This is the story of a forgotten feminine power recounted in parallel to the author’s journey. The Magdalene is the second book in the Grail Trilogy otherwise known as The O Manuscript
Mary Magdalene from the New Testament to the New Age and Beyond
An international team of twenty scholars under Edmondo F. Lupieri’s direction produced Mary Magdalene from the New Testament to the New Age and Beyond. While the historical figure of the Magdalene may be lost forever, the construction of her literary images and their transformations and adaptations over the centuries are a lively testimony to human creativity and faith. Different pictures of Mary travelled through time and space, from history to legend and mythology, crossed religious boundaries, going beyond the various Christianities, to become a “sign of contradiction” for many. This book describes a special case of biblical reception history, that of the New Testament figure of a woman whose presence at the side of Jesus has been disturbing for some, but proves to be inspiring for others.
Power of the Magdalene
The long-awaited, compelling sequel of the best-selling book The Essenes - Children of the Light. 1. What is the secret of Mary Magdalene's power? 2. Who were the female disciples of Jeshua? 3. Did Jeshua and Mary Magdalene have a child? 4. How can we understand the New Children now being born? 5. What changes will the New Consciousness bring into our lives? This is the story of the Essenes and the female disciples of Jeshua who were deliberately marginalised and written out of the record. This book focuses on the partnership of Jeshua and Mary Magdalene, and culminates in the work of the Crystal Children who are just now being born. This fascinating story was revealed through the process of past life regression and through the insight of an angelic being called Alariel. This is the "inner history" or our planet as it has never been told before. A narrative to inspire the spirit and warm the heart.
Mary Magdalene and the Drama of Saints
A sinner-saint who embraced then renounced sexual and worldly pleasures; a woman who, through her attachment to Jesus, embodied both erotic and sacred power; a symbol of penance and an exemplar of contemplative and passionate devotion: perhaps no figure stood closer to the center of late medieval debates about the sources of spiritual authority and women's contribution to salvation history than did Mary Magdalene, and perhaps nowhere in later medieval England was cultural preoccupation with the Magdalene stronger than in fifteenth-century East Anglia. Looking to East Anglian texts including the N-Town Plays, The Book of Margery Kempe, The Revelations of Julian of Norwich, and Bokenham's Lege...
