* First rate author team that provides a truly international
perspective on the issues covered within the text * Offers rich
case-studies and reflections on a portfolio of qualitative,
quantitative and mixed method studies * Includes cross-disciplinary

This book reports on innovative interdisciplinary research in the
field of cultural studies. The study spans the early twentieth to
twenty-first centuries and fills a gap in our understanding of how
girls' and women's religious identity is shaped by maternal and
institutional relations. The unique research focuses on the stories
of thirteen groups of Australian mothers and daughters, including
the maternal genealogy of the editor of the book. Extended
conversations conducted twenty years apart provide a situated
approach to locating the everyday practices of women, while the
oral storytelling presents a rich portrayal of how these girls and
women view themselves and their relationship as mothers and
daughters. The book introduces the key themes of education, work
and life transitions as they intersect with generational change and
continuity, gender and religion, and the non-linear transitional
stories are told across the life-course examining how Catholic
pasts shaped, and continue to shape, the participants' lives.
Adopting a multi-methodological approach to research drawing on
photographs, memorabilia passed among mothers and daughters,
journal entries and letters, it describes how women's lives are
lived in different spaces and negotiated through diverse material
and symbolic dimensions.
