From marriage comes virgin flesh : a comparison between classical male and Christian male perceptions of female sexuality with the advent of Christianity in the Roman Empire in the first four centuries AD.Haskins, Susan Louise. January 2002 (has links)
From the first to the fourth century AD, male perceptions of female sexuality
underwent a radical change with the advent of Christianity. This thesis is an
investigation into classical male and Christian male perceptions of female sexuality,
to determine the manner and extent to which this change in perceptions took place.
The investigation will be two-fold, studying both the laws that established these
perceptions, as well as representations of female sexuality within specific, subjective
male-authored texts. A study of the marriage legislation of Augustus and a male
writer of the early Empire, Apuleius, shows an underlying pattern of thought, or
paradigm, of female sexuality among classical males. Female sexuality was
perceived as existing for the sole purpose of procreation, and males in positions of
authority thought that it needed to be under male control in order to ensure
acceptable sexual behaviour. They believed this would be best achieved by situating
it under the authority of the family. With the advent of Christianity, however, a new
competing paradigm on female sexuality emerged, which challenged the perceptions
of men of the classical era. The church fathers spurned the classical view of female
sexuality by instead advocating lifelong celibacy. They too, believed female
sexuality had to be controlled, but they placed it under the authority of the church,
and outside the family. Since the basis of the classical and Christian patterns of
thought differed so markedly, especially when the Christian paradigm was first
being formulated in the second century, it was inevitable that they would come into
"
conflict. Advocates of the classical paradigm tried to suppress Christianity by
persecuting its supporters. Some Christian women became victims of this conflict.
This thesis will also include an example of this conflict - the martyrdom of the
female Christian Perpetua, who left a record of her persecution in the form of a
diary. The conversion of the Emperor Constantine to Christianity in the fourth
century brought about the end of the conflict ana a victory for the Christian
paradigm. The church fathers suggest that the shift from classical to Christian was
total and complete. However, closer examination of Constantine's legislation and
the work of the influential church father Jerome shows that while this shift was
complete in theory, it did not extend very far into social and legal practice.
Although the Christian ideals of the church fathers were a major component of thenew paradigm, it also came to be composed of classical notions - now motivated by
Christian thought - that were held by Constantine and the upper classes. It was
these classical notions that shaped the social reality of life in the fourth century AD.
The nature and extent of the paradigm shift was therefore radical and far-reaching in
theory, but not in practice. / Thesis (M.A.)-University of Natal, Durban, 2002.

African women, hospitality and HIV/AIDS : the case of the Mothers' Union of St. Margaret's United Church of Zambia.Siwila, Lilian Cheelo. January 2005 (has links)
The problem of African women's hospitality has not been well handled in most churches in Africa. Although many churches seem to attach great value to African women's hospitality, there are still a lot of situations related to African women's hospitality that have been dehumanising and oppressive to African women both in the church and in the society. Issues such as the HIV/AIDS pandemic, economic hardship and sexuality have
all affected African women's practice of hospitality. The fact that problems related with African women's hospitality surface within the church goes to show that this kind of hospitality needs to be re-examined by the Church if it has to be free and liberative to African women. Despite all these effects, African women themselves have valued and accepted hospitality as part of their calling in their service to God. The aim of this thesis is to discuss African women's hospitality from an African woman theologian's perspective. Writing as an African woman theologian, the researcher was
able to bring out some of the effects of African hospitality to African women. Apart from hospitality being an African way of life and a virtue that needs to be embraced by both African culture and Christianity, hospitality is also viewed as a' command from God to all the Jews and Christians. On the other hand it is also important to mention that hospitality is a gift from God in that there are people who are gifted in extending their acts of
hospitality to others. Hospitality as a concept, which has been practiced mainly by women in most African societies has impacted many dimensions of life especially in the Christian faith where African women's hospitality has been viewed as God's command to God's people. Although there is some literature produced on hospitality, the researcher noted with special interest that not much literature has been covered from the theological side on the issue of African women's hospitality and HIV/AIDS. The study was undertaken in the United Church of Zambia with the Mothers' Union
group of St. Margaret Church of Kitwe. Among many others, the study reviewed the need for enculturation and contextualization of the African culture and the gospel. Chapter one is the introduction to the study. This includes the background to and motivation for the study, statement of the problem, the methodology used to collect data and the literature review. Chapter two brings out the historical background of hospitality both from the Biblical and African concept. The chapter shows African women's practice
of hospitality in all these aspects and how their practises impacted the communities and people who lived at that time. Chapter three looks at different ways African women express their acts of hospitality. The effects of this expression of hospitality are also discussed. The other issues that have been covered are the response of African women theologians' to African women's practise of hospitality. Chapter four examines how HIV/AIDS has affected the practise of African women's hospitality and how these women who continue to offer hospitality under HIV/AIDS conditions cope with the risks involved in the practice. Chapter five analyses the research findings using cultural hermeneutics of Kanyoro 2000 as the frame of reference. Chapter six concludes African women's understanding of hospitality. This chapter states that African women's hospitality is a gift from God and women who are involved in this practice should be encouraged to do so. However, there is need for the church and
community to re-examine the practice and look out for oppressive structures that are destructive to the African women's practice of hospitality. The chapter has also called on the church to be supportive to African women in their practise of hospitality. / Thesis (M.Th.)-University of KwaZulu-Natal, Pietermaritzburg, 2005.
