This is the first in-depth study of post-war female religious life.
It draws on archival materials and a remarkable set of eighty
interviews to place Catholic sisters and nuns at the heart of the
turbulent 1960s, integrating their story of social change into a
larger British and international one. Shedding new light on how
religious bodies engaged in modernisation, it addresses themes such
as the Modern Girl and youth culture, '1968', generational
discourse, post-war modernity, the voluntary sector and the women's
movement. Women religious were at the forefront of the Roman
Catholic Church's movement of adaptation and renewal towards the
world. This volume tells their stories in their own words. -- .
