Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La dévotion mariale, une des formes essentielles de la religiosité actuelle, au-delà même du monde chrétien. Aujourd'hui le culte de la Vierge est aussi florissant qu'il l'était hier, et l'intérêt du présent dictionnaire sans équivalent est de montrer la richesse et la multiplicité de ses facettes. Marie est présente dans les maisons et les églises, mais aussi dans les bandes dessinées, les contes pour enfants, le cinéma... Elle est celle vers laquelle, depuis des siècles, s'élèvent des prières. Elle est universelle avec des sanctuaires connus de tous, mais aussi locale avec ses fontaines sacrées, ses arbres mystérieux. Elle est priée par des dévots, mais aussi par des footballeurs ou des marins. C'est devant Notre-Dame d'Aparecida que sont déposés tous les mois 19 000 objets et ex-voto. C'est en son nom que les Loups de la Nuit parcourent les routes de Russie et d'Europe centrale sur leurs motos, c'est toujours en clamant son nom, un rosaire à la main, que les Philippins se sont élevés contre la dictature. Marie est de toutes les causes, de tous les temps et de tous les continents. Pour décrire les innombrables modalités du culte rendu à Notre-Dame, ce dictionnaire de 150 entrées en développe quatre types. Les premières sont des articles généraux, synthèses de sujets déjà bien étudiés (Apparitions, Immaculée Conception, Mariolâtrie...). Les secondes abordent les dévots, confessions constituées (Orthodoxes, Protestants...) ou groupes sociaux moins évidents (Motards, Footballeurs, Marins...). Les troisièmes visitent des sanctuaires (Aparecida, Fatima, Guadalupe, Lourdes...). Enfin, les dernières laissent la parole aux critiques ou aux remises en cause. L'ensemble dessine les contours d'une histoire qui s'articule autour de trois moments forts : le début du XVIe siècle lorsque la figure mariale s'affirme comme un étendard face au protestantisme et qu'en conséquence, les dévotions personnelles ou collectives s'amplifient ; le milieu du XIXe marqué par l'émergence de nouveaux hauts lieux et par la proclamation du dogme de l'Immaculée Conception ; le milieu du XXe, temps où le concile Vatican II recentre une piété mariale que d'aucuns jugent envahissante.

Download or read book Souls of Naples written by Autori Vari and published by Viella Libreria Editrice. This book was released on 2024-03-21T14:32:00+01:00 with total page 321 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this volume you will find stories about hyperactive relics, ghosts in spiritual or bodily form, as well as accounts of the dead being conjured, resurrected, and brought back to life from decomposing matter. This is not so much for the purpose of assembling a kind of Neapolitan Wunderkammer, but rather to allow these bodies – in physical or spiritual form, or sometimes both at the same time – to speak as protagonists, and to offer their own contribution to the historical anthropology of the Kingdom of Naples. This volume explores the boundaries between body and spirit, life and death, as well as the natural, preternatural, and supernatural in the long early modern era in southern Italy.

Download or read book Art Forgery written by Thierry Lenain and published by Reaktion Books. This book was released on 2012-01-15 with total page 386 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With the recent advent of technologies that make detecting art forgeries easier, the art world has become increasingly obsessed with verifying and ensuring artistic authenticity. In this unique history, Thierry Lenain examines the genealogy of faking and interrogates the anxious, often neurotic, reactions triggered in the modern art world by these clever frauds. Lenain begins his history in the Middle Ages, when the issue of false relics and miracles often arose. But during this time, if a relic gave rise to a cult, it would be considered as genuine even if it obviously had been forged. In the Renaissance, forgery was initially hailed as a true artistic feat. Even Michelangelo, the most revered artist of the time, copied drawings by other masters, many of which were lent to him by unsuspecting collectors. Michelangelo would keep the originals himself and return the copies in their place. As Lenain shows, authenticity, as we think of it, is a purely modern concept. And the recent innovations in scientific attribution, archaeology, graphology, medical science, and criminology have all contributed to making forgery more detectable—and thus more compelling and essential to detect. He also analyzes the work of master forgers like Eric Hebborn, Thomas Keating, and Han van Meegeren in order to describe how pieces baffled the art world. Ultimately, Lenain argues that the science of accurately deciphering an individual artist’s unique characteristics has reached a level of forensic sophistication matched only by the forger’s skill and the art world’s paranoia.

Download or read book The Hundred Years War Vol 5 written by Jonathan Sumption and published by Faber & Faber. This book was released on 2023-08-29 with total page 839 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'Sumption is that rare and precious thing: a serious, decent, honest thinker . . . and one of our finest historians.' Dan Jones, Sunday Times 'Gripping and eminently readable . . . a compelling justification for the enduring value of historical narrative.' The Times 'Unsurpassed, and probably unsurpassable.' Daily Telegraph In this final volume of his epic history of the Hundred Years War, Jonathan Sumption tells the story of the collapse of the English dream of conquest, from the opening years of the reign of Henry VI until the loss of all of England's continental dominions except Calais thirty years later. This sudden reversal of fortune was a seminal event in the history of the two principal nation-states of western Europe, ending four centuries of the English dynasty's presence in France and separating two countries whose fortunes had once been closely intertwined, creating a new sense of national identity in both. The legacy of these events would influence their divergent fortunes for centuries to come. Behind the clash of arms stood some of the most remarkable personalities of the age: the Duke of Bedford, the English Regent who ruled much of France; Charles VII of France, who patiently rebuilt his kingdom after the disasters of his early years; the captains populating the pages of Shakespeare - Fastolf, Montagu, Talbot, Dunois and, above all, the extraordinary figure of Joan of Arc who changed the course of the war in a few weeks at the age of seventeen. 'The Hundred Years War ends in England's agonising defeat - but triumph for Jonathan Sumption . . . There is no doubting his achievement. It is, as everyone says, a "monumental" work.' Spectator

Download or read book Joan of Arc written by and published by Manchester University Press. This book was released on 2013-01-01 with total page 392 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This sourcebook collects together for the first time in English the major documents relating to the life and contemporary reputation of Joan of Arc. Also known as La Pucelle, she led a French Army against the English in 1429, arguably turning the course of the war in favour of the French king Charles VII. The fact that she achieved all of this when just a seventeen-year-old peasant girl highlights the magnitude of her achievements and also opens up other ways of looking at her story. For many, Joan represents the voice of ordinary people in the fifteenth century; the victims of high politics and warfare that devastated France. Her story ended tragically in 1431 when she was put on trial for heresy and sorcery by an ecclesiastical court and was burned at the stake. This book shows how the trial, which was organised by her enemies, provides an important window into late medieval attitudes towards religion and gender, as Joan was effectively persecuted by the established Church for her supposedly non-conformist views on spirituality and the role of women. Presented within a contextual and critical framework, this book encourages scholars and students to rethink this remarkable story. It will be invaluable reading for those working in the fields of medieval society and heresy, as well as the Hundred Years’ War.

Download or read book Pierre Bayle 1647 1706 le philosophe de Rotterdam Philosophy Religion and Reception written by and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2008-07-31 with total page 287 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book contains 15 essays by philosophers, theologians and historians from the Netherlands, France, Italy, England and the United States on Pierre Bayle (1647-1706), the French Protestant who found refuge in Rotterdam just before the Revocation of the Edict of Nantes (1685). From the early 1680s onward, Bayle published a series of seminal works, culminating in his Dictionaire historique et critique (1697), that is generally regarded to have served as the "arsenal" of the Enlightenment. Over the last few decades, Bayle has been rediscovered as one of the key authors of the early Enlightenment, but experts have found it extremely difficult to come to any agreement concerning his ultimate position, most notably concerning the relationship between faith and philosophy. In this volume both Bayle's philosophy and his theological views are assessed as well as his impact on the Enlightenment and beyond. Contributors include: Hubert Bost, Hans Bots, Wiep van Bunge, Justin Champion, Jonathan Israel, Eric Jorink, Lenie van Lieshout, Antony McKenna, Gianni Paganini, Marie-Hélène Quéval, Todd Ryan, Adam Sutcliffe, Rob van der Schoor, Theo Verbeek, and Jan de Vet.
