Описание: Many Americans are familiar with the real, but repeatedly stereotyped problem of alcohol abuse in Indian country. Most know about the Prohibition Era and reformers who promoted passage of the Eighteenth Amendment, among them the members of the Woman's Christian Temperance Union. But few people are aware of how American Indian women joined forces with the WCTU to press for positive change in their communities, a critical chapter of American cultural history explored in depth for the first time in In League Against King Alcohol. Drawing on the WCTU's national records as well as state and regional organizational newspaper accounts and official state histories, historian Thomas John Lappas unearths the story of the Woman's Christian Temperance Union in Indian country. His work reveals how Native American women in the organization embraced a type of social, economic, and political progress that their white counterparts supported and recognized - while maintaining distinctly Native elements of sovereignty, self-determination, and cultural preservation. They asserted their identities as Indigenous women, albeit as Christian and progressive Indigenous women. At the same time, through their mutual participation, white WCTU members formed conceptions about Native people that they subsequently brought to bear on state and local Indian policy pertaining to alcohol, but also on education, citizenship, voting rights, and land use and ownership. Lappas's work places Native women at the center of the temperance story, showing how they used a women's national reform organization to move their own goals and objectives forward. Subtly but significantly, they altered the welfare and status of American Indian communities in the early twentieth century.

In 1902 the Woman’s Christian Temperance Union (WCTU)petitioned the Japanese government to stop rewarding good deeds withthe bestowal of sake cups. Alcohol production and consumption, itsmembers argued, harmed individuals, endangered public welfare, andwasted vital resources. This campaign was part of a wide-ranging reformprogram to eliminate prostitution, eradicate drinking, spreadChristianity, and improve the lives of women. As Elizabeth Dorn Lublinshows, members did not passively accept and propagate government policybut felt a duty to shape it by defining social problems and influencingopinion. Certain their beliefs and reforms were essential toJapan's advancement, members couched their calls for change in therhetorical language of national progress. Ultimately, the WCTU’sactivism belies received notions of women’s public involvementand political engagement in Meiji Japan.

Описание: Cyril, Bishop of Alexandria (412-444), is best known as a protagonist in the christological controversy of the second quarter of the fifth century. Readers may be surprised therefore to find such polemic absent from this early work on the twelve minor prophets of the Old Testament. Cyril appears in this work as a balanced commentator, eclectic in his attitude and tolerant of alternative views.
