SUMMARY Hypercorrection, as it has traditionally been defined in historical linguistics, is often described as a sporadic and irregular performance error that does not affect the structure of a language in any sort of systematic or lasting way. In this article, evidence is presented from the South Dravidian family of languages to show that such an assumption cannot be supported in all cases. Early in the history of this family, a phonological change involving umlaut operated to lower high vowels in root syllables before a low-vowel suffix. However, in one of the languages of this family, Literary Tamil, a subsequent change occurred whereby the effects of umlaut were reversed, and the resultant new pattern was hypercorrectively extended to new environments that did not originally contain the appropriate conditioning for the change. So widespread was the overextension of the pattern that its outcome was virtually identical to the outcome of a regular, phonetically-conditioned sound law. This suggests not only a reformulation of the importance of hypercorrection in bringing about significant linguistic change, but also a reconsideration of the role accorded to phonetic factors as the only means through which exceptionless phonological change can be effected. RÉSUMÉ L'hypercorrection, selon la définition traditionnelle qu'en donne la linguistique historique, est une erreur sporadique et irrégulière qui ne concerne que la parole et qui n'a pas de conséquences systématiques ou permanentes pour ce qui est la structure de la langue. Cet article présente pourtant des données linguistiques de la famille sud-dravidienne qui montrent qu'en fait cette supposition ne tient pas toujours. Tout au début dans l'histoire de cette famille, un changement métaphonique a eu lieu dont le résultat a été l'abaissement d'une voyelle haute dans une syllabe de racine devant un suffixe comprenant une voyelle basse. Toutefois, dans une des langues de cette famille, le tamoul littéraire, un changement s'est produit plus tard, renversant les effets de la métaphonie, et par lequel la nouvelle distribution phonologique qui résultait du renversement s'étendait par hypercorrection aux mots qui n'avaient pas ä l'origine les conditions nécessaires pour subir le changement métapho-nique. L'hyperextension de cette nouvelle distribution phonologique a été si générale dans la langue que ses effets sont pratiquement identiques ä ceux d'un changement phonique régulier et attendu. Ces données mènent ä revoir l'importance de l'hypercorrection dans l'introduction de changements linguistiques importants, et ä repenser le rôle des facteurs phonétiques comme seul moyen d'arriver aux changements phonologiques sans exceptions. ZUSAMMENFASSUNG Die Hyperkorrektion, ihrer traditionellen Stellung innerhalb der histori-schen Sprachwissenschaft zufolge, wird oft als ein sporadischer, unregelmäs-siger Performanzfehler beschrieben, der keine systematische, dauernde Wir-kung auf die Struktur einer Sprache ausube. In diesem Beitrag werden Fakten aus der süddravidischen Sprachfamilie vorgelegt, die die Unannehmbarkeit einer allgemeinen Gültigkeit dieser Auffassung beweisen. In der frühen Ge-schichte dieser Familie fand nämlich ein Lautwandel statt, der den hohen Vokal einer Wurzelsilbe niedrig werden liess, wenn diese einem Suffix, der einen niedrigen Vokal enthielt, voranging. In einem Mitglied dieser Sprachfamilie — der tamilischen Schriftsprache — hat aber eine spätere Entwick-lung die Ergebnisse des Umlautwandels beseitigt, und danach ist ein daraus resultierendes Muster entstanden, das durch Hyperkorrektion nun in neuen Umgebungen verbreitet worden ist, die die urspriinglich zutreffende Bedin-gung nicht besassen. So verallgemeinert wurde dièse iibertriebene Ausdeh-nung des Musters, daß ihr Ergebnis wie das Ergebnis eines regelmässigen, phonetisch bedingten Lautwandels — zumindest der äußeren Erscheinung nach — aussah. Daraus lässt sich schliessen, dass die Bedeutung der Hyperkorrektion bei der Sprachentwicklung, sowie die Rolle der phonetischen Fak-toren, die man im allgemeinen fur das einzige Mittel hait, durch das ein aus-nahmsloser Lautwandel statt findet — eine neue Einschätzung verdienen.

Full textAbstract:
Broadcasting and television are two popular types of media, with more audience than other types of media in Viet Nam today. Tay-Nung is a common language of two ethnic groups with the largest population of ethnic minorities in Viet Nam. Research on broadcasting and television in the Tay-Nung language is importance research, involving both journalism and the science of language. On the basis of surveys on the state of broadcasting in Tay-Nung language and the attitude, needs and aspirations of the Tay and Nung ethnicity on this activity, this article aims to describe and evaluate the current status of broadcasting in the Tay-Nung language, thereby proposing ways and means to improve the efficiency and effectiveness of broadcasting in Tay- Nung language. The main methods used in this study are a scientific observation method, a sociological survey method (interviews, discussions, investigation by questionnaires), method of description (analytical, statistical, classification, systematization) and a comparison method. Research data is collected from relevant documents and from the use of sociological survey methods. The subject of the article is the broadcast in Tay-Nung language activities in Viet Nam at present. This subject is considered in the following aspects: The places, the levels of broadcasting and television; the choice and use of language / dialect; attitude, needs and aspirations of the recipients, and some ways and solutions to be implemented. Research results of the project will help the Ministry of Information and Communication, in radio and television, to develop specificsuggestions on the choice of type and level of communication. At the same time, the Viet Nam has also suggested the development of policies related to communication in ethnic minority languages. Raising the effectiveness of broadcasting in the Tay-Nung language will contribute to the preservation of language and culture; will improve quality of life for the Tay and Nung ethnicity and will contribute to sustainable development of nations in the renewal period. The work will inform work by the State, the Ministry of Information and Communication, should the State and the Ministry of Information and Communications pay attention to this timely guidance. Results will contribute to studies on communication in ethnic minority languages in Viet Nam or on communication in Tày Nùng in Southeast Asia.

Full textAbstract:
This article is devoted to the research of the History of the Book of Psalms manuscript from A.S.Norovʼs book collection stored in the Department of manuscripts of the Russian State Library. The manuscript was written at the beginning of the 18th century in Church Slavonic language Polish letters by two nuns from the East Slavic region of the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth who moved to Russia at that time. Very few such texts have survived, and almost all of them were created in the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth. Records by the owners of the manuscript indicate that the manuscript was found at the estate of Prince Andrei Dolgorukov near Moscow — in the village of Bogorodskoye located in the immediate vicinity of the Moscow Ascension maiden Monastery. It is suggested that the creator of the manuscript could be a village nun of this monastery who lived in the village of Bogorodskoye. The article analyzes indirect information about the authors of the manuscript and draws a conclusion about their use of certain symbols characteristic of the cultural and theological environment of the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth.

Full textAbstract:
SUMMARY Ablaut, a morphological device familiar to Indo-Europeanists, is extremely rare in the more than 900 Austronesian languages, but is widespread in the languages of northern Sarawak. At least seven languages within this area make extensive use of simple verbal ablaut, and all but two of these also use 'compound ablaut', an affixational process which combines homorganic nasal substitution of the stem-initial consonant with internal vowel change. Comparative evidence shows that simple ablaut developed from earlier infixes *-um- and *-in- under specific phonological conditions, producing a three-way vowel alternation: /e/ (nominal/imperative) : /u/ (active verb) : /i/ (passive verb). In the same languages *-um- and *-in- generally became /m/-, -/em/-and /n/-, -/en/- respectively under complementary phonological conditions, thereby allowing the original situation to be inferred at least in part through internal reconstruction. Compound ablaut developed under a subset of the conditions which gave rise to simple ablaut as a result of metathesis which was motivated by the need to eliminate highly disfavored sequences of consonants in successive syllables. Unlike the Proto-Indo-European system of vowel-grades or 'apophony', which already existed in some form at the earliest reconstructed stage, ablaut in western Borneo thus documents rather clearly the steps by which an ablaut system can evolve from an earlier system of infixes. RÉSUMÉ Le phenomene de 1''ablaut', technique de marquage morphologique bien connue des indo-europeanistes, est extrêmement rare parmi les plus de 900 langues austronesiennes, mais il est frequant parmi les langues du Sarawak du nord. Au moins sept langues dans cette region se servent abondamment de l'ablaut verbal simple et, a l'exception de deux d'entre elles, ces langues con-naissent egalement 'l'ablaut compose', un processus d'affixation qui combine la substitution homorganique nasale de la consonne initiale du radical avec un changement interne de la voyelle. Les donnees comparatives demontrent que l'ablaut simple s'est developpe a partir d'ancien infixes, *-um- et *-in- sous des conditions phonologiques specifiques, produisant une alternance vocalique a trois formes: /e/ (nominal/imperatif) : /u/ (verbe actif) : /if (verbe passif). Dans ces memes langues *-um- et *-in- sont devenus /m/-, -/em/- et /n/-, -/en/-, respectivement, sous des conditions phonologiques complementaires, permit-tant ainsi d'inferer, du moins en partie, de la situation d'origine a l'aide de la reconstruction interne. 'L'ablaut compose' s'est developpe a l'interieur d'un sous-groupe des conditions qui ont donnees suite a l'ablaut simple, en raison d'une metathese motivee par le besoin d'elimination de suites fort defavorisees de consonnes dans des syllabes successives. A l'encontre du systeme proto-indo-europeen de la gradation des voyelles ou de Tapophonie', qui existait deja sous une forme quelconque au stage le plus ancien de la reconstruction, l'ablaut au Borneo occidental documente assez clairement les pas a travers lequel un systeme d'ablaut peut evoluer a partir d'un systeme d'infixes. ZUSAMMENFASSUNG Ablaut, die in der Indogermanistik so gelaufige morphologische Erschei-nung, ist unter den mehr als 900 austronesischen Sprachen sehr selten, aber weit verbreitet unter den Sprachen des nordlichen Sarawak. Wenigstens sieben Sprachen in dieser Gegend bedienen sich extensiv des einfachen verbalen Ablauts und alle, mit Ausnahme von zwei von ihnen, verwenden einen 'komina-torischen Ablaut', einen AffigierungsprozeB, der die homorganische nasale Substitution eines stamminitialen Konsonanten mit internem Vokalwechsel verbindet. Sprachvergleichende Evidenz zeigt, daB der einfache Ablaut sich aus den fruheren Infixen *-um- und *-in- unter spezifischen phonologischen Bedingungen entwickelte und drei Arten von Vokalabwechslung produzierte: /e/ (nominal/imperativ) : /u/ (fiir aktive Verben) : /i/ (für passive Verben). In denselben Sprachen entwickelten sich *-um- und *-in- generell zu /m/-, -/em/-beziehunsweise zu /n/-, -/en/- unter komplementaren phonologischen Bedingungen, wodurch die Moglichkeit gegeben war, die urspriinglichen Gegeben-heiten zumindest teilweise durch interne Rekonstruktion zu erschlieBen. Der 'kom-binatorische Ablaut' entwickelte sich unter einer Untergruppe von Bedingungen, die den einfachen Ablaut hervorriefen, und zwar als Ergebnis einer Metathese, die der Not entsprang, besonders unliebsame Konsonan-tenfolgen in sukzessiven Silben zu eliminieren. Im Gegensatz zum urindo-germanischen System der Vokalgradierung oder 'Apophonie', die in irgendeiner Form schon zum frühesten rekonstruierbaren Zeitpunkt bestand, zeigt der Ablaut im westlichen Borneo deutlich die einzelnen Stufen, in denen sich ein Ablautsystem aus einem friiheren System von Infixen entwickeln kann.

Full textAbstract:
In this paper we analyze the graphic and the linguistic characteristics of the 1375 Paris Miscellany (Slave 73) by examining the Psalter and the canticles. Since the author of this oldest Croato-Glagolitic miscellany, Grgur Borislavić, was from Modruš, we have studied to what extent the language of the manuscript was influenced by the Modruš vernacular. Furthermore, considering that, according to the colophons, the target audience of the manuscript were the Šibenik nuns of St Julian’s Church we have also examined to what extent the linguistic concept was affected by the intended readership of the text. Linguistic research has proven that the text was written in the Croatian Old Slavonic language with some features of the Modruš vernacular, i.e. Čakavian. It is possible that some of these linguistic features were common to both the author and the inhabitants of Šibenik. The only linguistic characteristics that indicate that the text was adapted to the readership (Šibenik nuns) are the occasional Ikavisms. The Paris Miscellany is without a peer among the Croato-Glagolitic manuscripts. Not only is it the oldest complete miscellany, but it is also the only Glagolitic codex associated with Šibenik and one of the rare miscellanies that contain Biblical texts. Both the liturgical and the textological elements confirm the uniqueness of this manuscript. Special attention should be paid to the liturgical order and the Canon which both belong to the original redaction of the Croatian Glagolitic sacramentary. Since the Paris Miscellany is the most Croaticized 14th century Croato-Glagolitic manuscript, its language is particularly distinctive. It is reasonable to assume that the intended readership affected the concept on which it was based, i.e. its modernisation, as the nuns (as opposed to priests) were not educated or taught the Church Slavonic language. In other words, this manuscript (unlike other Croato-Glagolitic psalters in breviaries) was fairly Croaticized since it needed to be adapted to its readership.

Full textAbstract:
The sign like a large final nun that appears in the margins of some early manuscripts has been considered another way of expressing the ketib-qere phenomenon. The analysis and study of the more than five hundred occurrences located in the Cairo Codex of the Prophets question this explanation and make it possible to define its use and explain its function in the context of this codex. According to this analysis, the marginal nun is related to the consonantal text without any reference to the reading tradition; its function is to warn that something happens in the consonantal text but not to explain it; and finally, its use in the Cairo Codex is determined by the probability that the spelling of a word might lead to a serious error in understanding.

Full textAbstract:
The story of the rescue of Jewish women by the Sisters of the Studite Rule belongs to the lesser known pages of the Holocaust history in Ukraine. The issue involves many other female orders and congregations of the Greek Catholic Church as well. The subject, considered from this perspective, is paradoxical – in fact the activity of the Studite nuns provides a most promising area of research because of its source base and contemporary references in the works of Ukrainian historians. The reason for this is that the rescued were primarily adults who left testimonies. Even though other congregations were larger in number and had better material resources, they hid children of a very young age who remembered very little. This is why we have a paucity of recollections. Mother Yosyfa (Witer), the Abbess of the Sviato-Pokrovskyi (Holy Protection) monastery, played a leading role in providing Jewish women with a place to hide. By the authority granted to her, she utilized virtually all the affiliated houses to shelter Jews. She also personally played an active role in developing plans for hiding Jews and in this way implementing the vision of Metropolitan Andrew Sheptytskyi and personally supervised the care of those entrusted to her. It is noted that the Abbess was notable for her deep empathy for the victims’ situation and for her attempts to support them. It is stated that the most vivid recollections were left by Faina Lacher (who later joined the Sisters of the Studite Rule and became Schema-nun Maria), Neham Kagane and Lili Stern-Pohlmann. They left detailed descriptions of their pre-war lives, life in the ghetto, escape from the ghetto and final rescue in their memoirs. It is emphasized that the fact that they left written accounts and testimonies in their lifetimes іs of great importance, as it allows to approach their stories from a historic perspective. In summary, we may claim that the subject of the Greek Catholic Church’s female congregation’s hiding of Jewish women during the Holocaust warrants further research. It is a complex subject that requires thorough archival investigation coupled with modern Holocaust research methodology. But it is very necessary. It will offer a broader look at the response of the Greek Catholic Church to the needs of the Holocaust victims. Keywords: The Sisters of the Studite Rule, Jews, women, the Holocaust, hiding

Full textAbstract:
SUMMARY Many studies of linguistic change have drawn distinctions between contrasting types of change. Examples are the Neogrammarian distinction between regular sound change and borrowing, and Labov's contrast between 'change from above' and 'change from below'. A basic criterion for many such distinctions is whether or not language contact is involved in the genesis of a change. Recent works by Thomason & Kaufman (1988) and Van Coetsem (1988) suggest a further important distinction between contact-induced changes that arise through borrowing and those that arise from the imposition of native language habits on a second language. This paper attempts to summarize and critique some major proposals concerning change types, and provide a systematic synthesis that identifies three basic types: spontaneous change, borrowing, and imposition. Each is associated with a distinctive set of social, psychological, and linguistic characteristics, such as the social class distribution, whether speakers are consciously aware of the innovation, and the domains of language structure that are affected. Certain variable parameters that allow the further differentiation of subtypes are also explored, such as (in contact-induced change) the degree of bilingualism and the demographic balance between the languages, and (in spontaneous change) the possible coexistence of contrasting social interpretations of the innovation. RÉSUMÉ Dans les études consacrées au changement linguistique on trouve souvent un façon dichotomique lorsqu'on parle des différents types de changement. Les néogrammariens faisaient une distinction entre changement phonétique régulier et emprunt; Labov parle de l'opposition entre changement de 'en haut' et changement de 'en bas'. Le critère de base pour de telles dichotomies est si du contact linguistique est impliqué ou non dans la genèse d'un changement. Des travaux récents, notamment ceux de Thomason & Kaufman (1988) et Van Coetsem (1988), proposent une importante distinction supplémentaire, à savoir la distinction entre des changements provoqués par des contacts avec d'autres languages (qui prennent leur source dans l'emprunt) et des changements qui résultent d'une imposition des comportements linguistique d'un locuteur natif sur une langue seconde. Le présent article essaie un résumé critique de certains propositions majeures concernant les types de changement et présente un synthèse de ces ouvrages en identifiant trois types de base, à savoir le changement spontané, l'imprunt et l'imposition. Chaque type est associé avec en ensemble particulier de traits sociaux, psychologiques et linguistiques comme, par exemple, la stratification sociale, la question si les locuteurs sont conscients d'une innovation, et les domaines de la structure langagière atteints par un changement. L'article examine également certain paramètres variables qui permettent la différentiation supplémentaire en sous-types, comme le degré du bilingualis-me et la balance démographique entre les langues (au cas des changements provoqués par le contact) et la co-existence possible des interprétations sociales qui s'opposent d'une innovation donnée. ZUSAMMENFASSUNG Viele Untersuchungen zum Sprachwandel haben eine Reihe von sich scharf untereinander unterscheidenden Arten der Sprachver ä nderung aufgestellt. Die Junggrammatiker unterschieden zwischen regul ä rem Lautwandel und Entleh-nung; Labov unterscheidet zwischen einem Wandel 'von oben' und einem Wandel 'von unten'. Grundkriterium für viele solcher Unterscheidungen ist ob Sprachkontakt in der Genese eines Wandels eine Rolle spielt oder nicht. Jüngst erschienene Arbeiten von Thomason & Kaufman (1988) und von Van Coet-sem (1988) schlagen eine weitere Unterscheidung vor, nämlich zwischen kon-takt-induzierten Veränderungen, die durch Entlehnung entstehen, und solchen, die ihren Ursprung in der Imposition von spezifischen Sprachgewohnheiten auf eine zweite Sprache haben. Der vorliegende Aufsatz versucht, eine kritische Übersicht über die wichtigsten Vorschläge bezüglich Sprachverände-rungstypen zu bieten und eine Synthese, die drei Haupttypen herausstellt: spontaner Wandel, Entlehnung und Imposition. Jeder Typ wird mit bestimm-ten sozialen, psychologischen und linguistischen Kriterien in Verbindung gebracht, z.B. solchen der soziologischen Schichtung, ob Sprecher sich einer Neuerung bewußt sind und welche Teile der Sprachstruktur betroffen sind. Ebenfalls untersucht werden gewisse veränderliche Parameter, die eine weitere Untergruppierung der Typen ermöglicht, wie etwa der Grad von Zweispra-chigkeit und der demographische Ausgleich zwischen den jeweiligen Sprachen (im Falle von kontaktinduziertem Wandel) und die mögliche Koexistenz von sich widersprechenden gesellschaftlichen Auslegungen einer bestimmten Neuerung (im Falle spontanem Wandels).

Full textAbstract:
One tends to take for granted that in women's monasteries the only voices raised were those of its masculine directors and preachers. However, while sermons by priests were generally reserved for Sundays and feast days, the abbesses addressed their communities several times a week or even daily. Although the Pauline prohibitions restricted women from speaking on religious topics in public or to mixed groups, within the walls of the convent that was assimilated to the private domain of a household, abbesses exhorted, instructed and rebuked their nuns at chapter meetings or during recreation sessions. Many such talks might have been considered a form of preaching if they had been delivered by abbots in a monastery of men. However, because abbesses of the era generally lacked rhetorical and theological training, they had to content themselves with the informal registers of sacred oratory.

Full textAbstract:
This chapter examines Afro-Mexicans' level of involvement in colonial society and religious life as well as their desires to gain social power as defined by colonial authorities. An important form of Christian practice for Africans in the Diaspora came through membership in Catholic confraternities, lay groups that were organized around venerating saints and often served as mutual aid societies for their members. This chapter considers the case of a group of black men and women who performed clandestine religious ceremonies in the alleys of late seventeenth-century Mexico City and claimed to be religiosos (clerics) and religiosas (nuns) of Saint Iphigenia. In particular, it analyzes the possible meanings such gatherings held for the congregants. The case demonstrates how Afro-Mexicans asserted their right to worship as Christians on their own terms, deployed their understandings of Christianity around the prescribed tenets of religious orthodoxy, and interpreted the language of hierarchy and power embodied in religious objects and rituals.

This article draws on the nearly 1800 letters which survive from the Benedictine convent of Lüne, near Lüneburg in northern Germany, and were written between c. 1460 and 1555. It explores the textual and visual strategies which nuns in the later Middle Ages used to negotiate their enclosed status. It suggests that the language and imagery of openness were a means for the nuns to remind those outside the convent wall of their presence and purpose in life.

This chapter explains how Ronald Reagan's public diplomacy campaign reflected conservative Nicaraguan and U.S. Catholic viewpoints and language. It talks about the officials who worked with Catholic allies, including a former Maryknoll sister, that critique the Maryknoll and liberation theology in the United States, Latin America, and Europe. It also recounts Reagan's promotion as defender of the Nicaraguan Catholic Church to win support among conservative Catholics for U.S. policy and his reelection bid. The chapter discusses the White House's attempt to move the public focus from human rights in El Salvador to Nicaragua by alleging that the Sandinista government persecuted religion and was trying to create a fake church. It describes the public diplomacy campaign that involved cooperation with religious conservatives, including its design and execution that reflected conservative Catholic viewpoints and language.

Full textAbstract:
Chapter 7 shows how the complex, individual experiences of nuns and convent congregations during the later Reformation led to the creation of temporary religious hybridity and blended traditions within many convents. As a result, most nuns worshipped in ways that did not follow the orthopraxy expected by their regional ruler, even supposedly evangelical convents. Some congregations of pluriconfessional nuns adapted their devotional lives to accommodate the religious diversity in their community. Exploring the various disagreements over space, time, language usage, and material culture that continually shaped and disrupted devotional practices, this chapter examines how religiously diverse convent congregations continued to worship together in shared convents. Shared devotional interactions in the resulting pluriconfessional convent congregations challenged the nuns’ understanding of their community and necessitated continual reconsiderations of convent sacred space and material culture. Even so, these communities experienced a very precarious balance between communal harmony and external expectations.

Full textAbstract:
Chapter 4 examines how and why all nuns adapted, adopted, and rejected aspects of the new models of convents and spiritual expectations and religious piety through the late sixteenth century, focusing on three issues: habits, choir services, and spiritual authority. It also shows the negotiations and compromises made between the nuns, political authorities, and clergy about devotional life throughout the 1530s to 1550s. This process is evident in the changes in the new convent orders presented to nuns that outlined the new habits they had to wear and the language, liturgy, and texts they had to use. Some women found that temporarily conforming to authority or demurring in answering questions provided an effective strategy to retain their habits and devotional practices. Few abbesses conceded control over their convents, leading to tensions as they actively sought imperial protection and brought property cases and jurisdictional violations to the imperial court.

Full textAbstract:
Medieval and early modern nuns and anchoresses, upon entering their enclosures, became metaphorically ‘dead to the world’ in order to join in a spiritual marriage with Christ that would (hopefully) lead them to heaven. Yet this death or exile rarely marked a complete departure from the world. It is within this context that the loving letters written to her family by Winefrid Thimelby (Prioress of St Monica’s from 1668 to 1690) are examined. This chapter argues that Thimelby was anxious to promote religiosity and right living among her family members in order for them all to unite in heaven. The letters reveal how nuns, even when limited to writing one or two letters per year, could articulate a clear selfhood, a clear convent identity, and a clear sense of familial identity without diminishing any of these identities for the sake of the others. Thimelby’s decades-long engagement with the theme of longing for death—‘that gate of lyfe’, in her words—is crucial to our understanding of the language of love and longing at the heart of her identity.

Abstract work: This burial inscription is from Nikaia, in Greece. The term philosophissa is reminiscent of other late imperial terms formed by the addition of the feminine ending -issa, such as archisynagogis(s)a, diakonissa, etc. Horsley argues that the term identifies Attia as a consecrated virgin (a “nun” in his terminology), which is reinforced by the phrase “garbing herself in virginity.” The constellation of language as a whole should probably be taken as Christian.

In the United Kingdom there were a number of rape threats made to prominent public figures who identify feminists. It led to three people being jailed, namely Isabella Sorley, John Nimmo and Peter Nunn. This was at a time when the UK police had identified around 50,000 online sex offenders but said they could not all be prosecuted. This study investigates the use of rape threats and other threatening language based on those tweeted by these people to see the contexts in which they are used. The study finds that most rape and other threats made are done as a joke and not with any real malicious intent. The chapter recommends on the basis of the evidence necessary for the authorities to use the judgement in DPP v Chambers, which would mean the context of an alleged abusive message would be considered.

This chapter investigates the use of dance in evoking and transmitting ineffable religious experience. While earlier chapters examined group dances performed in public, this chapter turns to more intimate or private performances within the mystic’s imagination. Focusing on female mystics and so-called brides of Christ (including saints, nuns, and beguines) of the thirteenth and fourteenth centuries, it reveals how these women created a new repertoire of choreography (dance-writing) that privileged the body and the imagination. Mystics’ dance language opened creative and subversive avenues to access the radical alterity of God. The first section analyzes the kinetic content of bridal mysticism. The second section takes a closer look at women’s own writings and the (de)privatization of performance. The choreography of intimacy marked a state of interiority and ecstasy; it manifested the privileged, personalized moment of encounter. The third section presents evidence for the gender politics of certain partnerships, in which women were victims of divine domination.

Abstract How do children and young people in the Burmese diaspora learn Buddhism? What strategies do teachers use? And how do the students themselves view their experiences? This chapter attempts to answer these questions through the cases of two young lay females who both had short-term but highly impactful experiences: one as a temporary nun, and the other as a repeat attendee at a Buddhist youth camp. These experiences are contextualized, in the first instance with descriptions of the monastic space and the Burmese-language classes that prompted the subject’s choice of monastery, and in the second, with the history of the camp and exploration of its monastic spaces. In both these cases, Buddhism was not always taught directly by monks; that is, while they physically recalled the Buddha and Buddhism in terms of aesthetics, comportment, and the practice of sīla or “morality,” they were not usually the ones teaching Buddhism in the strictest sense. Thus, this research demonstrates the importance of studying lived Buddhism and how the laity—and especially the female laity—serve as active agents in the maintenance of Burmese Buddhism, and of Burmese culture more generally.
