Book excerpt: Winner of an Honorable Mention in the Professional/Scholarly Publishing Awards given by the Association of American Publishers Between 1618 and 1750, sixteen people—nine women and seven men—were brought to the attention of the ecclesiastical authorities in Venice because they were reporting visions, revelations, and special privileges from heaven. All were investigated, and most were put on trial by the Holy Office of the Inquisition on a charge of heresy under various rubrics that might be translated as "pretense of holiness." Anne Jacobson Schutte looks closely at the institutional, cultural, and religious contexts that gave rise to the phenomenon of visionaries in Venice. To explain the worldview of the prosecutors as well as the prosecuted, Schutte examines inquisitorial trial dossiers, theological manuals, spiritual treatises, and medical works that shaped early modern Italians' understanding of the differences between orthodox Catholic belief and heresy. In particular, she demonstrates that socially constructed assumptions about males and females affected how the Inquisition treated the accused parties. The women charged with heresy were non-elites who generally claimed to experience ecstatic visions and receive messages; the men were usually clergy who responded to these women without claiming any supernatural experience themselves. Because they "should have known better," the men were judged more harshly by authorities. Placing the events in a context larger than just the inquisitorial process, Aspiring Saints sheds new light on the history of religion, the dynamics of gender relations, and the ambiguous boundary between sincerity and pretense in early modern Italy.

This book was released on 2013-02-05 with total page 99 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La ricerca che qui si presenta ha per oggetto un testo di spiritualita della fine del '500, il Breve Compendio di perfezione cristiana. Il libro e opera di un gesuita, il Padre Achille Gagliardi (1537-1607), membro assai attivo all'interno della Compagnia di Gesu e dedito in particolare, a promuovere una riforma: insieme pastorale e spirituale. Lo scritto, tuttavia, non e suo frutto esclusivo; esso infatti nasce dall'incontro del Padre Achille con una ""Dama milanese,"" Isabella Berizaga, le cui singolari esperienze mistiche e il cui sincero discernimento hanno svolto un grande ruolo, in quanto attiene la vita dello spirito nell'elaborazione del Compendio stesso. La singolarita dell'opera fu avvertita con forza dai contemporanei, e, se incontro il consenso di molti trovo pure in altri vivace ed anche maliziosa opposizione. Le vicende della sua recensione vennero poi ad inserirsi nel piu ampio dibattito che nei decenni successivi si accese intorno al Quietismo.
