King claims that every sect within early Christianity which had advocated women's prominence in ancient Christianity was eventually declared heretical, and evidence of women's early leadership roles was erased or suppressed. Classicist Evelyn Stagg and New Testament scholar Frank Stagg in their jointly authored book, Woman in the World of Jesus, document very unfavorable attitudes toward women that prevailed in the world into which Jesus came. They assert that there is no recorded instance where Jesus disgraces, belittles, reproaches, or stereotypes a woman. They interpret the recorded treatment and attitude Jesus showed to women as evidence that the Founder of Christianity treated women with great dignity and respect.

His Industrial Farmers of 1920 is an oil painting with collage that depicts a Bible-clutching farmer with money erupting from his forehead, seated next to his monstrous wife who cradles a piglet. Their subhuman son, his head open at the top to show that it is empty, is torturing a frog. Perhaps Scholz' best-known work, it is typical of the paintings he produced in the early 1920s, combining a controlled, crisp execution with corrosive sarcasm. Newspaper Carriers (Work Disgraces), 1921 Scholz quickly became one of the leaders of the New Objectivity, a group of artists who practiced a cynical form of realism.

The Spanish Prime-Minister Manuel Godoy, Prince of the Peace (1767–1851), credited the Franco-Spanish defeat of 1762 mainly to the peasant uprising, caused by the excesses of the invaders: "The war of 62 alternated between defeats and disgraces; forty thousand Spanish soldiers and twelve thousands French only managed to take Almeida and penetrate some leagues inland, and then were defeated in the mountains with very little honour to the Spanish and French arms... the country was trampled, the people subjected to violence and repression. And the peasantry rebelled."Godoy, Manuel – Memorias, Emilio La Parra López, Elisabel Larriba (editors), Publicaciones Universidad de Alicante, 2008, pp. 781–782. It was a war without formal battles, of marches and counter-marches, and that is why it is called the Fantastic War in Portuguese historiography.

On May 1, 1908, a new labor newspaper, La Planca, was launched by Carmela's friend, feminist and activist Esther Valdés de Díaz, a promoter of the Association of Seamstresses. In her first editorial, the publisher acknowledged the groundbreaking work of La Alborada but noted that Carmela had suffered the “destruction of her house and an uninterrupted series of disgraces, forcing her to interrupt her noble crusade.” The editor went on to say that she knew nothing of her friend's life after that time, but that Jeria had inspired disciples who would continue her work. Jeria’s work is said to have contributed to the formation of several women's associations dedicated to the suffrage movement, eventually leading to Chilean women gaining the right to vote in municipal elections in 1934, and in presidential elections in 1952.

Don Fernando Ruiz de Castro (Opening stanzas from a poem in El Drama Universal by Ramón de Campoamor, with translation.) :Mi esposa Estefanía, que está en gloria, :fue del Séptimo Alfonso hija querida; :desde hoy sabréis, al escuchar su historia, :que hay desgracias sin fin en nuestra vida. :Yo la maté celoso; y si, remiso, :no me maté también la noche aquella, :fue por matar después, si era preciso, :a todo el que, cual yo, dudase de ella. My wife Estefanía, who is in glory, / was of Alfonso VII a dear daughter; / after today you will know, upon listening to this story, / that there are disgraces without end in our life. // Jealous, I killed her; and if, reluctant, / I did not kill myself also that night, / it was to kill later, if it was necessary, / all who, even I, doubted her.

To this rule there is one very rare exception, namely, where one disgraces a sleeping person (say, by exposing their nude body), and the sleeper dies without finding it out, the action for the disgrace does not pass to his heirs.Bava Kamma 86b The maxim of the common law, that a felony merges the civil remedy, was also known to the Rabbis. When a man strikes his father or mother so as to leave a mark ("ḥabburah"), or when he wounds any one on sabbath, he can not be sued for compensation; for he is deserving of death (קים ליה בדרבה מיניה). While it was very unlikely that the offender would be put to death—for long before the days of the Mishnah capital punishment under the Mosaic law had ceased —still this excuse of the lesser offense by the greater was held good.

The New Criterion was founded in 1982 by The New York Times art critic Hilton Kramer. He cited his reasons for leaving the paper to start The New Criterion as "the disgusting and deleterious doctrines with which the most popular of our Reviews disgraces its pages", as well as "the dishonesties and hypocrisies and disfiguring ideologies that nowadays afflict the criticism of the arts, [which] are deeply rooted in both our commercial and our academic culture". "It is therefore all the more urgent", he went on to say, "that a dissenting critical voice be heard, and it is for the purpose of providing such a voice that The New Criterion has been created." Kramer's decision to leave The New York Times, where he had been the newspaper's chief art critic, and to start a magazine devoted to ideas and the arts "surprised a lot of people and was a statement in itself", according to Erich Eichmann.
