Transatlantic anti-CatholicismFrance and the United States in the nineteenth century /[electronic resource] :Timothy Verhoeven. - 1st ed. - New York ;Palgrave Macmillan,2010. - ix, 230 p. - Palgrave Macmillan transnational history series. - Palgrave Macmillan transnational history series..

Includes bibliographical references (p. 211-224) and index.

Introduction : Father Hyacinthe in America -- The transatlantic caseagainst Catholicism -- Catholicism, slavery, and the family -- The Mortara affair -- Natural or unnatural? : doctors and the vow of celibacy -- Neither male not female -- The Jesuit as androgyne -- The captivity of Sister Barbara Ubryk -- Conclusion : Father Hyacinthe and the Vatican Council.

This book is a cultural and intellectual history of anti-Catholicismin the period 1840-1870. The book will have two major themes: trans-nationalism and gender. Previous approaches to anti-Catholicism in the United States have adopted an exclusively national focus. This book breaks new ground by exploring the trans-Atlantic ties joining opponents of Catholicism in the United States and in France. The anticlerical works of major French writers such as Jules Michelet and Edgar Quinet flowed into the United States in the middle decades of the century. From the French perspective, the UnitedStates offered a model in combating the alleged ambitions of the Church. The literature and ideas which passed through this trans-Atlantic channel were overwhelmingly concerned with masculinity, femininity and domesticity. On both sides of the Atlantic, anti-Catholic literature was filled with images of priests or Jesuits craftily usurping the authority of fathers, of young girls tricked into entering convents and then subjected to merciless sexual and physical abuse, of families torn apart by the agents of the Church. Of course, the gender and domestic ideals underlying this opposition to Catholicism were not identical across the two societies. Nevertheless, gender and domesticity acted asaplatform on which the trans-Atlantic case againstCatholicism was built.
