The identity of the woman--or, more likely, women--represented by this iconic figure has been the subject of dispute since the Church's earliest days. Much less appreciated is the critical role the Magdalene played in remaking modern Christianity. In a vivid recreation of the Catholic and Protestant cultures that emerged in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries, The Magdalene in the Reformation reveals that the Magdalene inspired a devoted following among those eager to find new ways to relate to God and the Church. In popular piety, liturgy, and preaching, as well as in education and the arts, the Magdalene tradition provided both Catholics and Protestants with the flexibility to address the growing need for reform. Margaret Arnold shows that as the medieval separation between clergy and laity weakened, the Magdalene represented a new kind of discipleship for men and women and offered alternative paths for practicing a Christian life. Where many have seen two separate religious groups with conflicting preoccupations, Arnold sees Christians who were often engaged in a common dialogue about vocation, framed by the life of Mary Magdalene. Arnold disproves the idea that Protestants removed saints from their theology and teaching under reform. Rather, devotion to Mary Magdalene laid the foundation within Protestantism for the public ministry of women.-- $c Provided by publisher. 600 00 $a Mary Magdalene, $c Saint. 600 00 $a Mary Magdalene, $c Saint $x Cult. 600 07 $a Mary Magdalene, $c Saint. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00032964 650 0 $a Reformation. 650 0 $a Women in Christianity $z Europe $x History. 651 0 $a Europe $x Church history $y 16th century. 651 0 $a Europe $x Church history $y 17th century. 941 $a 3 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20231019023924.0 952 $l PLAX964 $d 20230718093211.0 952 $l USUX851 $d 20200103021431.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=DD2188E8E19111E89124B82197128E48 994 $a C0 $b IWAInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
