Models of Charitable Care: Catholic Nuns and Children in Their Care in Amsterdam, 1852-2002
Annelies van Heijst
Analyses the practice of Catholic nuns in Amsterdam in the 19th and 20th century. This book focuses on the ambiguous ascetic spiritual discourse that underpinned their work: it encouraged charity as solidarity with strangers, but caused intense emotional distance too.
