Recognizing the marginalization experienced by many Catholic women within the Church, the book explores the enduring appeal of the Church's professed ideals, drawing in women who seek membership despite facing exclusion. Building upon diverse feminist theories of ethos, the authors in this collection examine how North American Catholic women from various backgrounds, races, ethnicities, sexualities, and classes have harnessed elements of their positionality to bring about transformative change. The book spans a broad spectrum, encompassing the earliest Catholic sisters who arrived in the United States to women who courageously held the Church hierarchy accountable for the sexual abuse scandal, redefining the concept of a \"good Catholic mother.\" It also sheds light on lesser-known Catholic women who have made significant contributions, such as those in an African-American order who cultivated an ethos of resistance against racism. Furthermore, chapters delve into the lives and legacies of well-known Catholic figures like Dolores Huertas, Mary Daly, and Joan Chittister, highlighting their profound impact on the feminist movement and the Catholic Church.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 703g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 228 x 161 x 27 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9781793636218\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Shulph Ink","offers":[{"title":"Hardback","offer_id":44102213566714,"sku":"9781793636218","price":109.8,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/1646319010420_book.jpg?v=1646946083","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/catholic-womens-rhetoric-in-the-united-states-ethos-the-patriarchy-and-feminist-resistance-9781793636218","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
