I gave Carol Balizet's book "Born in Zion" a lengthy footnote. I didn't include her book in my mention of the various strains of UC thought--and perhaps I should have--but instead wrote a long footnote explaining the basis of her ideas and mentioning that they don't seem very prevalent in contemporary online conversations about UC. This is something I'd like to delve into more deeply for my book revision. Not just Quiverfull, but the intersection of religion & UC in general. <br /><br />And that article, and all the other ones related to it, is a huge case of blog telephone. That mother's case has been used to demonize UC, to demonize midwifery, to support UC (since she survived a condition that has a 50% fatality rate even in hospitals), etc. And so much of it is hearsay--someone reading a blog about it, writing an article on another blog, then another blogger or journalist writing their article based on the earlier blogs...and on it goes. Anyway more later, need to go.Rixahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07908864785513937876noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20642800.post-746020922468919892009-09-04T16:54:26.649-04:002009-09-04T16:54:26.649-04:00I've been wanting to read Quiverfull for a whi...I've been wanting to read Quiverfull for a while - this reminds me to check the library! I'm curious whether you're reading it because of, or are aware of, the UC movement related to Quiverfull. A friend in religious studies forwarded me this link: http://www.religiondispatches.org/archive/sexandgender/1618/ I'm curious to know if you've encountered any of these moms in UC communities. To me, it seemed like a clear way that the cult-y aspects of some UCers can be incorporated into actual cult (or cult-like) movements.<br /><br />(BTW, I forwarded him back a link to your thesis so he could see that there's more sides to UC.)Rebeccahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02589949170980959443noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20642800.post-1767331462807030872009-09-03T13:46:59.033-04:002009-09-03T13:46:59.033-04:00I've just been reading Writing Motherhood by L...I've just been reading Writing Motherhood by Lisa Carrigues and am finding it be a very accessible and interesting book about how to write about motherhood experiences. It's making me feel very motivated (amnd making it seem fun and doable) to do some actual writing about motherhood. I'd love to hear what you think of it, should you choose to read it.Maryannehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05674022115623396106noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20642800.post-31596241385366894512009-09-03T12:20:59.820-04:002009-09-03T12:20:59.820-04:00Only 2 of these were from my local library--the re...Only 2 of these were from my local library--the rest were ILLs.Rixahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07908864785513937876noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20642800.post-71508653408717089132009-09-03T10:52:38.952-04:002009-09-03T10:52:38.952-04:00That Quiverfull book looks very interesting.

I loved the Kabul Beauty School book--it only took me one evening to read it, but it was one of those books you always keep in the back of your mind and think back about from time to time, know what I mean?Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01924822265478305280noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20642800.post-29959527373506134722009-09-02T23:44:30.847-04:002009-09-02T23:44:30.847-04:00I'd be interested to read more of your thought...I'd be interested to read more of your thoughts when you finish the Quiverfull book.
