ary M. Schaefer offers a groundbreaking examination of the church of Santa Prassede in Rome. Rebuilt by Pope Paschal I in the early ninth century, the church was named in honor of Saint Praxedes, identified by some seventeenthand eighteenth-century sources as a presbytera or female priest. Schaefer gives an in-depth and wide-ranging account of the history of the church and of women officeholders in the West—particularly diaconas, presbyteras, and episcopal abbesses—from the first through the twelfth centuries.

Mary M. Schaefer was Professor of Liturgy at the Atlantic School of Theology in Halifax, Nova Scotia.

Gary Macy, John Nobili,

SJ Chair of Theology, Santa Clara University

“This book could not have come at a better time. The historical question of women’s ordination has been studied more seriously in the past thirty years than ever before. Professor Schaefer’s use of the architecture and imagery in the Church of Santa Prassede in Rome as a source for re-examining women in church orders is very much at the cutting edge of research and results in an original and significant contribution to the larger picture. Scholars will respect the immense care for detail and context Schaefer uses to develop her argument, and less specialized readers will connect particularly with her chapters on the evidence for women’s ordination.”

Susan K. Roll, Associate Professor of Liturgy and Sacraments, Saint Paul University

“In this important work, the liturgical scholar Mary Schaefer presents an engaging interdisciplinary appraisal of women as pastoral officeholders in antiquity and the early Middle Ages. Schaefer’s magisterial scholarship is wide-ranging: using the early Roman basilica of Santa Prassede, and its titular saint, Saint Praxedes, as starting points, she weaves together precise and insightful analyses of an impressive array of primary sources (biblical, liturgical, and artistic) to offer a fresh, comprehensive assessment of women’s official roles in the church during its first thousand years.”

Joanne M. Pierce,

Professor, Department of Religious Studies, College of the Holy Cross

Women in Pastoral Off ice

“This careful work of scholarship combines the most complete history yet of women’s role in ministry with a delightful unraveling of the mystery of the beautiful ninth-century church of Santa Prassede. More than a fascinating plunge into the past, the book, in its own words, ‘invites us to a renewed way of being church’ in the present.”

Women in Pastoral Office shows how the liturgy as well as the vita of Praxedes and her sister Pudentiana shaped the church’s architecture and its wealth of mosaics and interior art, one of the largest intact programs of church decoration in Rome up to 1200. Though Santa Prassede has been studied intensively in recent years, Schaefer’s study is the first to address the significance of the balanced male and female imagery throughout the church, with its depictions of men and women disciples, Praxedes and Pudentiana as house church leaders in the post-apostolic period, and Pope Paschal’s mother Theodora, titled episcopa.

Drawing on a wide variety of scholarly disciplines, Schaefer investigates the church’s scriptural and liturgical sources and reconsiders its foundation myth. Her book provides a critical view into the “golden age” of women’s work in ecclesial ministries, explores feminist claims, and challenges the official Roman position that women have never been ordained in the Church of Rome.

“Our world lives, loves, suffers and triumphs by myth, often unseen and unconsidered. In the tradition of Carl Jung and Joseph Campbell, Gloria Mendoza makes myths come alive; she helps us in the desperately important task of reimagining our way.” —Jack Kornfield, author of A Path With Heart and Teachings of the Buddha “Gloria Mendozaʼs Madness At The Gates Of The City explores how Euripidesʼ Bacchae, written to warn his late 5th century Athenian compatriots of the internal destructive forces threatening their beloved city, might help us look more honestly at the false innocence that sustains our illusions about the American dream and prevents our acknowledging its dark underside. Yet, the book ends with a beautifully voiced “story that could be true”: we could lift these repressive blinders, we could learn to hear and heed an archetypal cry for initiation into a way of being in the world that honors the life-giving energies the Greeks called by the name Dionysos.” —Christine Downing, author of The Goddess: Mythological Images of the Feminine and Gods in Our Midst: Mythological Images of the Masculine -- A Woman's View

FIVE CITIES

“Gloria Mendozaʼs book is a strikingly imaginative rumination on our society, reaching back into Greek mythology to illuminate the world today. It is a fascinating blend of literature, history and myth, and while we have had many critiques of contemporary America, his is unique in the way it draws upon the Greek gods to examine, with devastating accuracy, our present deities of war and greed. This is truly an original work.” —Howard Zinn, author of A Peopleʼs History of the United States

Mendoza

King Pentheus of Thebes with his cousin, the god Dionysus – who shows up at the gates of the city with the liberating blessings of madness as a stranger who is no stranger at all – as the paradigm for a devastating psychoanalytical critique of contemporary Americaʼs attitudes towards the imagined outsider. The power of myth is that it is eternal, and Mendoza not only offers much to contemplate about todayʼs society, but also new perspectives upon an ancient classic, Euripidesʼ tragedy of the Bacchants.

I

grew up in Monteria, a small livestock town 518 miles away from Bogota, Colombia. My family had this big library in the house, and I used to dedicate all my spare time after school browsing shelf by shelf each day. The Divine Comedy, and greek myths became my favorite pieces and eventually nourish my liking of foreign cultures. Communications in all its forms has always been my favorite subject. As of today, I study continuously german language, and I try to learn bits of other languages because I believe that you can reach a deeper connection with other people if you make an effort and speak to them in their native language. Time after I graduated from high school I attended to Universidad Autonoma del Caribe enrolled in the Graphic Design program, but did not made it to graduation because I moved to states right before. However, I enjoyed pretty much my journey there. I became much more familiar with art, and classic art movements, especially Russian Constructivism which I highly admire. In addition to art, film was another subject I found enjoyable. French cinema is my favorite kind I must say; mostly by directors such as Goddard, Truffaut, and Philippe Garrel–more contemporary.

Gill Sans Typeface Specimen

Gill Sans is a sans-serif typeface design by Eric Gill in 1926. Gill later on developed it into a complete font family.

Erbar, Futura and Kabel were the families combating Gill Sans. This font became popular in 1929.

Gill Sans was used for the London and North Eastern Railway in all the posters and publicity material.

1926

The capital M from Gill Sans is based on the propotions of a square with the middle strokes meeting at the center of the square.

The Gill Sans typeface family contains fourteen styles and has less of a mechanical feel than geometric sans-serifs like Futura.

ill

Its proportions derive from the Roman tradition. The carolingian influence is noticeable in the two lower case a and g.

ans Eric Gill was a well established sculptor, graphic artist, and type designer, and the Gill Sans typeface takes its inspiration from Edward Johnston’s Johnston typeface for the London Underground.

Gill worked on the London Underground while he apprenticed to Johnston. Eric Gill attempted to make

the ultimate legible sans-serif text face. Gill Sans was designed to function equally well as a text face and for display. Because Gill died in 1940, in most parts of the word the typeface became part of the public domain in 2011. In countries where typefaces are not copyrightable -like in the us- is possible to freely use this typeface for any purposes.
