Behind the Mask
This study asserts that the Lessing in the Postscript can only be understood within Kierkegaard's usage of pseudonymous figures to fulfill the requirements of indirect communication.
Spiritual Transformation
Although we often talk about spirituality, we usually cannot define it or explain how to achieve it. Besides offering a definition of spirituality, this book examines the need for spiritual vision in our lives. It further explores our individual journey into an "apprenticeship" with God, which takes us beyond the merely mortal into transformative closeness to Jesus Christ. Spirituality grows as we strengthen the three basic relationships established by Christ--to God, to ourselves, and to others. We gain this strength by first learning to align ourselves with God, then binding our mortal self to our spiritual self, and finally by emulating Christ as we reach out to others in charity and service. Jesus Christ is the focus and source of all true spirituality, as well as the power behind all lasting change. The end result of spiritual transformation for individuals is a life of service infused with light, gratitude, and joy. The collective result is Zion, a community of Christ-focused people who are bound together in charity, the essence of God.
Sophie Discovers Amerika
Cultural and literary historians investigate the unique literary bridge between German-speaking women and the "New World," examining novels, films, travel literature, poetry, erotica, and photography. In a 1798 novel by Sophie von La Roche, a European woman swims across a cold North American lake seeking help from the local indigenous tribe to deliver a baby. In a 2008 San Francisco travel guide, Milena Moser, the self-proclaimed "Patron Saint of Desperate Swiss Housewives," ponders the guilty pleasures of a media-saturated world. Wildly disparate, these two texts reveal the historical arc of a much larger literary constellation: the literature of German-speaking women who interact with the ...

Heroines and Local Girls
Over the course of the long eighteenth century, a network of some fifty women writers, working in French, English, Dutch, and German, staked out a lasting position in the European literary field. These writers were multilingual and lived for many years outside of their countries of origin, translated and borrowed from each others' works, attended literary circles and salons, and fashioned a transnational women's literature characterized by highly recognizable codes. Drawing on a literary geography of national types, women writers across Western Europe read, translated, wrote, and rewrote stories about exceptional young women, literary heroines who transcend the gendered destiny of their dist...
Radical Relationships
This collection of intimate letters reveals the remarkable radicalism—personal and political—of Mathilde Franziska Anneke. Anneke first became a well-known feminist and democrat in Prussia, earning notoriety for divorcing her first husband and fighting in the German Revolutions of 1848–1849. After moving to the United States, she became a noted proponent of woman suffrage, working with Elizabeth Cady Stanton and Susan B. Anthony. Like many other refugees of the German revolutions, Anneke was deeply involved in the Civil War.
