Abstract:
In this article we identify two models of women’s social engagement in contemporary Taiwanese Buddhism: mother and moral activist. The model of mother is represented by the famous Tzu Chi founder Shih Cheng Yen (b. 1937)—a Buddhist nun who is viewed by her followers as the embodiment of the compassionate mother ideal. The model of moral activist in contemporary Taiwanese Buddhism has received far less attention from scholars than Cheng Yen and Tzu Chi. However, in comparison to the model of mother, Taiwanese women who are moral activists actively challenge existing social institutions based on their Buddhist consciousness. This article discusses the nun Shih Chao-hwei (b. 1957) as representative of women moral activists and highlights two events—the public abandonment of the Eight Special Rules for nuns in 2001 and support for a lesbian wedding in 2012—to illustrate how moral activists challenge the existing patriarchal status quo. We argue that these two models of women’s social engagement are equally important in contemporary Taiwanese Buddhism and are the two important sources of women’s social engagement that aims to alleviate suffering and improve society.

Abstract:
Benedetta Carlini, a mystic and visionary who rose from countryside origins to become abbess of the Theatine convent known as Holy Mary of Pescia (Tuscany), was a “lesbian.” For her crimes she was imprisoned for thirty-five years until her death in 1661, at the age of seventy-one. Abbess Benedetta's fascinating story is reconstructed by historian Judith C. Brown in Immodest Acts: The Life of a Lesbian Nun in Renaissance Italy (New York and Oxford: Oxford University Press, 1985).

Abstract:
Coming-out stellt insbesondere für lesbische und schwule Jugendliche und junge Erwachsene eine relevante Aushandlung mit Umfeld und Welt dar. Der Beitrag untersucht das Erleben und Gestalten dieser Praxis. Die Sekundäranalyse 19 problemzentrierter Interviews zeigt, dass Coming-out als Problem des Spektakels hervorhebender Dramatisierung und des unausweichlichen Drucks gedeutet wird. Strategien der Heteronormalisierung, der Usurpation und der Aussetzung der Seinsrelation reagieren auf diese Problematisierungen und setzen sie teilweise außer Kraft. Die Fallstricke der Sichtbarkeit als Politikum, Authentizitätsanforderung und unhintergehbare Tatsache verweisen dabei auf eine gesellschaftliche Wandlung – eine Transformation der Ökonomie der Sichtbarkeit. Trotz – oder gerade wegen – der Vielzahl sich outender Stars und Aktivist_innen, Familien- und Freundschaftserzählungen sind nicht Lesbisch- und Schwul-Sein selbstverständlicher geworden, sondern die Praxis des Comingouts. Der Akt der Herstellung von Sichtbarkeit hat eine Eigenständigkeit entwickelt und ist nun selbst Zeichen der Homosexualität.
