	Magdalen Asylum - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Magdalen Asylums grew out of the "rescue movement" in Britain and Ireland in the 19th century, which had as its formal goal the rehabilitation of women who had worked as prostitutes.
		In Ireland, the institutions were named for Mary Magdalene, a character in the Bible who, according to Catholic tradition, repented her sins and became one of Jesus' closest followers.
		As the Magdalen movement became increasingly distant from the original ideas of the "Rescue" movement, that is, to take prostitutes off the streets who would not find regular employment because of their background, the Asylums took an increasingly prison-like character.

	CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: St. Mary Magdalen
		Mary Magdalen was so called either from Magdala near Tiberias, on the west shore of Galilee, or possibly from a Talmudic expression meaning "curling women's hair," which the Talmud explains as of an adulteress.
		Yet it is Mary Magdalen who, according to all the Evangelists, stood at the foot of the cross and assisted at the entombment and was the first recorded witness of the Resurrection.
		Magdalen is said to have retired to a hill, La Sainte-Baume, near by, where she gave herself up to a life of penance for thirty years.

	The Legend of Mary Magdalen, Penitent and Apostle, Introduction
		Like the stanzaic accounts of Margaret and Katherine in the present edition, this version of the Mary Magdalen legend borrows frequently and sometimes conspicuously from the conventions of secular verse romances, suggesting that it was competing for the attention of a lay audience whose tastes and expectations had been formed by that genre.
		Mirk's sermon on Mary Magdalen begins and ends with lessons about the connections between her experience and that of "alle synful [people]," who should be inspired to repent as she did in the certainty that God's grace will meet and surpass their needs.
		In the case of Mary Magdalen, it takes her directly from Christ's Ascension to the desert, omitting the entire legend of her apostleship and concentrating instead on the priest's encounters with her just before she dies and a series of posthumous miracles in which she intervenes to save a child and two adult sinners.
