Rogers, Moira R.: Newtonianism for the Ladies and other Uneducated Souls. The Popularization of Science in Leipzig, 1687-1750. New York, Bern, Berlin, Bruxelles, Frankfurt/M., Oxford, Wien Peter Lang Vlg. 2003. ISBN: 978-0-8204-5029-2
In the course of the eighteenth century, lay people came to see science as an authority beyond criticism. The cultural status that science acquired continued for centuries and, even though it has been challenged in our times, science is still one of our main sources of meaning. In spite of universalist claims, eighteenth-century philosophers and popularizers did not grant women-traditionally the emblem of the uneducated-access to the sanctuary of science. Rather, the popularization of science functioned as an effective means for preaching the Enlightenment gospel to an educated laity. Popular science works are fragments in the composition of a new human and social ideal, in which science plays a crucial part. They are key building blocks in the construction of a learned worldview shaped by Enlightenment ideals, tensions, and contradictions.

Maitland, Karen: The Owl Killers, PENGUIN, 039 ISBN: 0718153219
England, 1321. Deep in the heart of countryside lies an isolated village governed by a sinister regime of Owl Masters - theirs is a pagan world of terror and blackmail, where neighbour denounces neighbour and sin is punishable by murder. This dark status quo is disturbed by the arrival of a house of religious women, who establish a community outside the village. Why do their crops succeed when village crops fail; their cattle survive despite the plague But petty jealousy turns deadly when the women give refuge to a young martyr.

Pressler, Carolyn: The View of Women Found in the Deuteronomic Family Laws. (= Beihefte zur Zeitschrift für die alttestamentliche Wissenschaft (BZAW), Band 216. Herausgegeben von Otto Kaiser). Berlin & New York, Walter de Gruyter 1993. ISBN: 3110137437
Aus der Einleitung: "The purpose of this study is to examine the view of women found within the Deuteronomic family laws. Several recent discussions have suggested that these laws manifest a highly positive appraisal of women's Status. In contrast, we will argue that the laws presuppose the dependence of women within male-headed households and the subordinate role of women within the family. The laws aim to support the stability of the family by undergirding hierarchical, patrilineal family structures. They also protect dependent family members. Their efforts to protect dependents do not, however, fundamentally challenge the hierarchical family structure. The position of this study is more consistent with findings of earlier studies by Roland de Vaux and Johannes Pedersen which argue that Israelite women held a dependent Status within a thoroughly patriarchal family. These early studies, however, fail to differentiate between texts from different historical periods, geographical areas, or social spheres in their discussion of women. Thus, they shed little light on the particular concerns of Deuteronomic family law äs that law relates to women. 1. The Scope of the Study This study is limited to the view of the Status of women within the family found within four sets of laws: 1. Deut 21:10-21 - the law of the captive bride; the law of primogeniture; the law of the rebellious son; 2. Deut 22:13-29 - sexual offense laws; 3. Deut 24:1-4 - the prohibition of the restoration of marriage; and 4. Deut 25:5-12 - the law of levirate marriage and the law of breach of modesty." - Mit 13 Seiten Literaturverzeichnis.
