Rebecca Avery letter, Memphis, 1846
Full text linkLetter from Rebecca Avery and other members of her family at Memphis, Tennessee, to her daughter Amanda A. Avery, c/o Mrs. Holcolm, La Grange, Tennessee, written on November 13, 1846. The other family members include Amanda\u27s sister Cornelia Estelle, an unidentifiable author and cousin Bob. Rebecca Avery notes how tired she is with her six student lodgers and two day boarders. “I hope you will catch a smart beau, for I want you all married.” Estelle (Stella) complains of a cough and wonders if it is consumption. Says she is tired looking after the boarders also. The unidentifiable writer notes that “poverty is a most niggardly rascally tormenting pestiferous scamp of a thing – that sticks tighter and bites harder than a thousand musketoes in a Mississippi swamp could possibly do.” Amanda Avery (1828-1916) was the daughter of Nathan Avery (1792-1846), a physician born in Lebanon, New York, who practiced in Bolivar and Memphis, and Rebecca Jones Rivers (1793-1847), whom he married in Montgomery County, Tennessee, in 1818. Their children included: William Thomas (1819-1880), Elizabeth Edmunds (1824-1916, who married Minor Meriwether), and Cornelia Estelle (1830-1919). Amanda married Nathaniel Macon Trezevant (1829-1912), a lawyer, in 1848.https://digitalcommons.memphis.edu/speccoll-mss-shelbycountytn2/1045/thumbnail.jp

Credibility of Christian Revelation in theological reflection of Avery Dulles
No full textAmerican theologian Avery Dulles applies models to show different aspects of God's selfcommunication. But all models of revelation he integrates by using the idea of the symbol of participation, which is the external reality by which God reveals Himself to people. According to Avery Dulles revelation is the activity of God who gives Himself to a man through revelatory symbols and communicates his divine truths in order to welcome people to eternal, redemptive union with Himself.
In a question related to a rational character of revelation he explains the issues such as the possibility, necessity and nature of verification of revelation by human mind. The American theologian maintains that it is possible that revelation may occur and that it is essential to human eternal salvation. The author also claims that human mind can recognize divine revelation which is the first condition to accept revelation in faith. He maintained, moreover, that we may reach moral certainty in theology, not certainty of evidence, and that divine grace completes the rest of our religious knowledge. The next part of this article shows traditional arguments for the rational character of Christian revelation. According to Avery Dulles the argument from resurrection is the most important among other classic arguments. American scholar gives also new arguments for a rational character of Christian revelation. The argument from the testimony of Christians’ lives is typical for Avery Dulles way of thinking. Finally, when we justify God’s revelation, we can accept it reasonably

The Social and Neurobiological Differences Present in Men and Women with Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder
No full textAbout 60% of women and 50% of men experience at least one traumatic event in their lives (Gradus, 2018). The type of prevalent trauma in men and women is also different as women are more likely to experience sexual assault and child sexual abuse while men are more likely to experience physical assault, disaster, or combat (Gradus, 2018). These differences play a role in the treatment and diagnosis of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). While there is much known about PTSD, there are still many unknowns when it comes to the main gender differences. One major theory of hypothesis includes the social and neurobiological difference in the processing of trauma. The goal of this critical review is to examine the neurobiological and social differences that are present in men and women with PTSD.Winner of the 2021 Friends of the Kreitzberg Library Award for Outstanding Research in the Senior Science/Technical Honorable Mention category
