Oliver, Mary, Love is a light burden. The life of Mother Mary Gonzaga Barry, I.B.M.V.
first publ.
Burns Oates 1950
267 S.

Klappentext:

Born in 1834, daughter of an Irish bank manager, Mary Barry had quite early a vocation to be a nun. The Order she joined was tie Institute of the B.V.M. where she had been educated, and where she felt quite sure she would end her days in the quiet routine of an Irish school. When at the age of 41 she learnt that she was to be the first Superior of a new foundation in Australia, the prospect nearly danted her. But in the true spirit of Mary Ward, the foundress of her order, and pioneer of all the Active Orders, she steeled her courage and went. In the fourty years that remained to her she blazed the trail of Catholic education in that vast land, overcoming every difficulty fo distance, prejudice, lack of resources and Governmental indifference.
It is thanks to her that the I.B.V.M. now has twelve flourishing houses in Australia and that Catholic education is nowhere more soundly established. But above all, Mother Gonzaga possessed the art of friendship. And in this record of her many contacts and acquaintances ma be found the secret of her lasting memory.

Orchard, Emmanuel (Hrsg.), Till God will. Mary Ward through her writings [Foreword by Mother Teresa of Calcutta]

  1. Aufl.
    Darton, Longman and Todd 1985
    126 S.

Klappentext:

Mary Ward was a pioneer of active, unenclosed religious life for women and a firm believer in the rights of women in the seventeenth century. In Till God Will she tells her own story and Emmanuel Orchard IBVM has drawn substantially on Mary Ward’s autobiographical writings and letters to give a living portrait of this dynamic woman and of the foundation of the Institute of the Blessed Virgin Mary. Mary Ward’s life was marked by suffering, persecution and set-backs from within and without her own church. Religious life without formal monastic enclosure was seen as revolutionary and members of the newly founded institute were known to their detractors as "Galloping Girls".

Mother Teresa of Calcutta is one of Mary Ward’s best known and most faithful daughters as she spent the first twenty years of her religious life in the Loreto Branch of the Institute of the Blessed Virgin Mary. Mother Teresa’s enthusiastic advocacy of Mary Ward in the foreword to the book emphasises that this "woman for all seasons" is truly a bridge between formal religious life which Mother Teresa can be seen to represent and today’s feminist movement within the churches.

Orchard, Emmanuel, Mary Ward: Once and future foundress
first ed.
The Incorporated Catholic Truth Society 1985
16 S.

Klappentext:

In the early years of the seventeenth century a young Yorkshire woman, Mary Ward, began a new form of religious life for women: free of enclosure, free to open schools and work amongst the poor, free to move wherever the need was greatest, free to pray whenever oppurtunity allowed, free from government by a male Order. But the fledgling community was condemned and Mary herself briefly imprisoned; it was many years after her death before the Institute of the Blessed Virgin Mary was confirmed by the Church and only in 1909 that she was officially declared its foundress.
This is the story of her life.
