| 520 | 8 | |a "On 25 July 1968, Pope Paul VI shook the world. His encyclical letter <i>Humanae Vitae</i> rejected calls to permit use of the contraceptive pill and deemed artificial contraception 'intrinsically evil'. The Catholic Church is now commonly identified as the antagonist in a story of sixties sexual revolution - a stubborn stone resisting the stream of sex-positive modernity. But there has been little consideration of how Catholic women themselves experienced this period of cultural upheaval. This book is about the sexual and religious lives of Catholic women in post-war England. It uses original oral history material to uncover how they negotiated spiritual and sexual demands at a moment when the two increasingly seemed at odds. It also examines the public pronouncements and secretive internal documents of the central Catholic Church, offering a new explanation of the Pope's decision to prohibit the pill. The materials gathered here provide a fresh perspective on the idea that 'sex killed God', reframing dominant approaches to the histories of sex, religion and modernity. The book will be essential reading not only for scholars of sexuality, religion, gender and oral history, but anyone interested in post-war social change." -- Back cover. | |
| 520 | |a This book is about the sexual and religious lives of Catholic women in post-war England. It uses original oral history material to uncover the way Catholic women negotiated spiritual and sexual demands at a moment when the two increasingly seemed at odds with one another. The book also examines the public pronouncements and secretive internal documents of the central Catholic Church, offering a ground-breaking new explanation of the Pope's decision to prohibit the Pill in 1968. The material gathered here offers a fresh perspective on the idea that 'sex killed God', reframing dominant approaches to the histories of sex, religion and social change. The book will be essential reading for not only scholars of sexuality, religion, gender and oral history, but anyone interested in social and cultural change more broadly. | ||
