Abstract

Dit boek verhaalt de ervaringen van vrouwelijke leerkrachten en pedagogen in het onderwijsveld in de periode van 1900 tot 1960. Het vertelt hoe zij zich een weg baanden in het onderwijs en hun loopbanen vorm gaven. Biografische gegevens leren ons hoe deze vrouwen elkaar steunden via persoonlijke contacten of via professionele netwerken. Vrouwen uit alle onderwijsnetten en onderwijsniveaus delen ons mee hoe zij voor zichzelf een plaats veroverden in de publieke intellectuele sfeer. Enkele hoofdstukken gaan over de rol die vrouwen hadden bij de ontwikkeling van het onderwijssysteem in Ierland en Canada. Verder is er aandacht voor de campagne van Henriette Rodman voor de rechten van gehuwde vrouwelijke leerkrachten in de VS aan het begin van de 20e eeuw. Vrouwen moesten toen kiezen tussen hun beroep of een huwelijk.

Abstract

The year 2015 marked the fiftieth anniversary of the end of the Second Vatican Council, which aimed to align the Church with the modern world. Over the last five decades, women religious have engaged with the council’s reforms with unprecedented enthusiasm, far exceeding the expectations of the Church. Addressing how Canadian women religious envisioned and lived out the changes in religious life brought on by a pluralistic and secularizing world, Vatican II and Beyond analyzes the national organization of female and male congregations, the Canadian Religious Conference, and the lives of two individual sisters: visionary congregational leader Alice Trudeau and social justice activist Mary Alban. This book focuses on the new transnational networks, feminist concepts, professionalization of religious life, and complex political landscapes that emerged during this period of drastic transition as women religious sought to reconstruct identities, redefine roles, and signify vision and mission at both the personal and collective levels. Following women religious as they encountered new meanings of faith in their congregations, the Church, and society at large, Vatican II and Beyond demonstrates that the search for a renewed vision was not just a response to secularization, but a way to be reborn as Catholic women.
