Related Items Women Amish Center Books In Anabaptist Studies History | This collection of original essays focuses on the rich,
historically diverse, and often misunderstood experiences of Amish,
Mennonite and other women of Anabaptist traditions across 400 years.
Equal parts sociology, religious history, and gender studies, the book
explores the changing roles and issues surrounding Anabaptist women in
communities ranging from 16th century Europe to contemporary North
America. Among the topics addressed by the contributors are: How
womanhood was defined by early Anabaptist societies; How 19th century
Amish tightened the connections among the individual, the family, the
household, and the community; The changing work world and domestic
life; The recent ascendancy of antimodernism and plain dress among the
Amish; and The special difficulties faced by scholars from within the
Anabaptist tradition who use historical or sociological methods to
study that culture. Copyright 2002 John Hopkins University Press | |
