Sacramental Trans Feminism explores historical and contemporary accounts of sacramental gender trouble, and bring them into dialogue with trans and feminist thinkers and concepts. This volume is inspired and informed by the author's own experience of gender exploration in the context of Anglo-Catholicism in the Church of England - a tradition with a long history of being accused of fostering gender transgression.

Sacramental Trans Feminism searches the history of ritualism in the Church of England for theological resources which might help us meet the current political moment, when lines are being drawn, and forces both secular and theological seek to make trans lives unlivable. By identifying aspects of Christian tradition which might point towards trans liberation, while also being clear-sighted about where the tradition has enabled harm, Sacramental Trans Feminism offers a vision of a Church which draws from the past but which is not content to live there. Rather, through a trans feminist reading of ritualist history, it seeks nothing less than the beatific vision, the Kingdom come on earth, liveable lives for all, especially for those of us who find our lives made unliveable by the powers and principalities of this world

Water and the Word, Volume I: Baptism and the Education of the Clergy in the Carolingian Empire: A S
<p><em>Water and the Word</em> focuses on a genre of literature written for the education of the Carolingian clergy: Carolingian baptismal instructions. This literature has never been brought together and studied collectively in the context of the books in which it circulated. As a corpus, read in comparison to one another, the baptismal tracts tell how baptism was celebrated and interpreted across Carolingian Europe. At the same time, in their manuscript context, they are an important new source of information regarding the nature and the success of the Carolingian Reform to educate the clergy.</p><p>This comprehensive study has three major objectives. One is to describe the codices in which the baptismal instructions are found, in order to show what other kinds of material the baptismal tracts were associated with and to show where, how, and by whom these codices were intended to be used. Another is to bring together the baptismal texts and study them systematically. Finally, a third objective is to interpret the Carolingian Reform in light of the baptismal instructions and the manuscripts in which they were copied.</p><p>Volume 1 of this two-volume set is devoted to analysis and interpretation of the material in volume 2. It is divided into three parts. The first part is concerned with the manuscript context of the baptismal instructions. In the second, the baptismal expositions themselves are analyzed. Part 3 of volume 1 offers some conclusions about the Carolingian Reform. Volume 2 contains the Latin text of sixty-six manuscripts, as well as descriptions, introductions, and a topical survey of the contents of these manuscripts. In its broadest context this study is about the Christianization of Europe--not the superficial conversion of conquered peoples, but the slow replacement of one mindset with another that came about through the education of the people under the care of pastors.</p>
