Educating for Worldly Life. The Social Picture of the Teacher-Nun

Summary/Abstract: This article focuses on describing the educational activities of women's religious orders. Its aim is to reveal these practices from an anthropological perspective, to reconstruct the social picture of the nun as a teacher, and to indicate where this image derives from. Interviews conducted with sisters and lay persons provided the material for analysis. The paper is based on fieldwork carried out from 2006 to 2009 among selected women's orders in Kraków.
