This book was released on 2012-12-14 with total page 400 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This second volume begins with the dawn of the eighteenth century, and relates how the Congregation of the Mission, founded by St. Vincent de Paul, worked to remain faithful to his vision while adapting itself to the demands of ecclesiastical and political life in France, Italy, Poland, Spain, and Portugal, overseas missions in North Africa and the Mascarenes, as well as the missions taken up after the suppression of the Jesuits in the Middle East and China. Among other problems, the Missioners found themselves in the middle of fights over Jansenism, but tempered by the success of the canonization of Saint Vincent de Paul. This is an important, down-to-earth side of history not often told.
Download or read book The Fear of Hell written by Piero Camporesi and published by Penn State Press. This book was released on 1991 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Fear of Hell is a provocative study of two of the most powerful images in Christianity&—hell and the eucharist. Drawing upon the writings of Italian preachers and theologians of the Counter-Reformation, Piero Camporesi demonstrates the extraordinary power of the Baroque imagination to conjure up punishments, tortures, and the rewards of sin. In the first part of the book, Camporesi argues that hell was a very real part of everyday life during the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries. Preachers portrayed hell in images typical of common experience, comparing it to a great city, a hospital, a prison, a natural disaster, a rioting mob, or a feuding family. The horror lay in the extremes to which these familiar images could be taken. The city of hell was not an ordinary city, but a filthy, stinking, and overcrowded place, an underworld &"sewer&" overflowing with the refuse of decaying flesh and excrement&—shocking but not beyond human imagination. What was most disturbing about this grotesque imagery was the realization by the people of the day that the punishment of afterlife was an extension of their daily experience in a fallen world. Thus, according to Camporesi, the fear of hell had many manifestations over the centuries, aided by such powerful promoters as Gregory the Great and Dante, but ironically it was during the Counter-Reformation that hell's tie with the physical world became irrevocable, making its secularization during the Enlightenment ultimately easier. The eucharist, or host, the subject of the second part of the book, represented corporeal salvation for early modern Christians and was therefore closely linked with the imagery of hell, the place of perpetual corporeal destruction. As the bread of life, the host possessed many miraculous powers of healing and sustenance, which made it precious to those in need. In fact, it was seen to be so precious to some that Camporesi suggests that there was a &"clandestine consumption of the sacred unleavened bread, a network of dealers and sellers&" and a &"market of consumers.&" But to those who ate the host unworthily was the prospect of swift retribution. One wicked priest continued to celebrate the mass despite his sin, and as a result, &"his tongue and half of his face became rotten, thus demonstrating, unwillingly, by the stench of his decaying face, how much the pestiferous smell of his contaminated heart was abominable to God.&" When received properly, however, the host was a source of health and life both in this world and in the world to come. Written with style and imagination, The Fear of Hell offers a vivid and scholarly examination of themes central to Christian culture, whose influence can still be found in our beliefs and customs today.

Download or read book Il breve compendio di perfezione cristiana di Achille Gagliardi 1537 1607 Introduzione a una sua lettura written by Esmeralda Marchioro and published by Lulu.com. 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.
