Made doubly marginal by their gender and by their religion, American nuns have rarely been granted serious scholarly attention. Instead, their lives and achievements have been obscured by myths or distorted by stereotypes. Placing nuns into the mainstream of American religious and women's history for the first time, Spirited Lives reveals their critical impact on the development of Catholic culture and, ultimately, the building of American society. Focusing on the Sisters of St. Joseph of Carondelet, one of the largest and most diverse American sisterhoods, Carol Coburn and Martha Smith explore how nuns directly influenced the lives of millions of Americans, both Catholic and non-Catholic, through their work in schools, hospitals, orphanages, and other social service institutions. Far from functioning as passive handmaidens for Catholic clergy and parishes, nuns created, financed, and administered these institutions, struggling with, and at times resisting, male secular and clerical authority. A rich and multifaceted narrative, Spirited Lives illuminates the intersection of gender, religion, and power in nineteenth- and early-twentieth-century America.

This is the colorful story of the life and times of an early Baby Boom generation member. In the US anyway, “Boomers” tended to be individualistic, experimental and social cause-oriented. They epitomized the cultural change of the 1960’s. Memorable events of this time included the Cold War, “Red Scare”, Cuban Missile Crisis, assassinations of JFK, RFK and MLK, Jr., political unrest, first moon walk, risk of the draft or military service in Vietnam, anti-war protests, women s liberation, “free love,” the Civil Rights and Environmental Movements, drug experimentation, protests and riots, and Woodstock. The author was a “free spirit” and stand-out member of a very large generation. It was an exciting time - and a time to stand up and make a difference!

Memory, Trauma and the Spirited Life offers a unique understanding of memory’s role in developing as a person, in navigating the course of life, and in mitigating emotional pain. This book develops the idea that memory, by what it endows, requires work of us that entails responsibility: to the self, the other, to the planet and to the living and the dead. Discussing the concept of memory and what it provides from the ancients to the present, Burrell draws on such writers as E. M. Forster and Rosa Luxemburg, Walter Benjamin, Tzvetan Todarov and Edward Said, as well as Susan Rubin Suleiman and Paul Ricoeur, to explore the operation of cultural and collective memory, trauma, otherness and the possibility for forgiveness. By means of richly detailed clinical vignettes, the author provides a psychoanalytic perspective to illustrate the transformative power of memory in coming to terms with the past, thereby making it essential reading for psychoanalysts and psychotherapists in practice and in training, as well as those with interests in history, literature, identity, the treatment of trauma and the question of hope.

The state of today’s modern world is triggering a deep, unavoidable desire to regain central balance within the hearts of many. Every day, we’re challenged with the questions: Who am I in this current world? What do I stand for? What is my purpose within it all? Many are seeking to understand our true natures and our purposes and we’re trying to embody that truth. Author Danielle Van de Velde is one of those people searching for answers. In Spirited, she shares her insights, observations and practices from her many years of teaching meditation and holding thousands of intuitive healing sessions. She speaks to those who are ready to claim their own natural spirituality, offering an upload of different perspectives for modern spirited living—ones that open access to our innate spiritual design and how to work with it. Spirited address three facets: • spirit self: an expanded perspective on the visible and invisible aspects of the self; • spirit dynamics: an expanded perspective on the nature of life and our engagement within it; and • spirit skills: an expanded perspective on meditation and working with your energy body. Van de Velde reframes meditation as an intentional practice to transform from reactive, to responsive, to expansive,and ultimately to creative living. She helps you remember who and what you really are, to live in active cohesion and cocreation with life and to operate creatively and intuitively in a state of flow. To remember this, is when we heal and come back to our true nature and design. This is being spirited.

Leskosky, Yuk Lan Ng, Giryung Park, Eileen Anastasia Reynolds, Akiko Sugawa-Shimada, Koji Yamamura, Masao Yokota, and Millie Young Getting in touch with a spiritual side is a craving many are unable to express or voice, but readers and viewers seek out this desired connection to something greater through animation, cinema, anime, and art. Animating the Spirited: Journeys and Transformations includes a range of explorations of the meanings of the spirited and spiritual in the diverse, dynamic, and polarized creative environment of the twenty-first century. While animation is at the heart of the book, such related subjects as fine art, comics, children's literature, folklore, religion, and philosophy enrich the discoveries. These interdisciplinary discussions range from theory to practice, within the framework of an ever-changing media landscape. Working on different continents and coming from varying cultural backgrounds, these diverse scholars, artists, curators, and educators demonstrate the insights of the spirited. Authors also size up new dimensions of mental health and related expressions of human living and interactions. While the book recognizes and acknowledges the particularities of the spirited across cultures, it also highlights its universality, demonstrating how it is being studied, researched, comprehended, expressed, and consumed in various parts of the world.
