Eve's Pilgrimage: A Woman's Quest for the City of God

Autor Professor Tina Beattie
en Limba Engleză Paperback – apr 2002
In this original book, the author journies through Rome, following biblical events and themes in works of art: from Genesis in the Sistine Chapel, through Incarnation in the Pantheon and Resurrection in Michaelangelo's Last Judgement.She touches on many themes in her journey, including violence and power (at the Colloseum), social injustice (at St. Mary Major) and motherhood (at the icon of Our Lady in Perpetual Succour).Writing as an intelligent Christian feminist, Beattie doesn't resort to clichTs, and has a clear, elegant style which makes this a very readable book.

Recenzii

"I felt I had re-engaged with some of the main ideas of Christian Theology in an inviting way and that Rome as a city was a place I'd like to explore again." --Janet Lees, Reform, October 2002.

She and her husband Dave now divide their time between Rye on the South Coast of England, and Stirling in Scotland. They have four adult children and five grandchildren.On her website, Tina describes her passion for writing:"Writing - like love - is nothing if it is not shared. Even the most private diary has an audience - an imaginary other to whom it is addressed. To write is to find words for the half-formed realm of private thoughts, fears, and imaginings, to send them out into the world as an incarnate love offering. Like love, writing makes us vulnerable and exposes us in ways we would rather keep hidden. It sometimes goes wrong and brings disappointment and a sense of betrayal. To write is to reach out in trust to an unknown other with a yearning to communicate and to be understood, knowing that one might be rejected. But the ecstasy of communion is always worth the risk of rejection."To find out more, please visit Tina's website: https://www.tinabeattie.com/.
