Book The Refashioning of Catholicism  1450 1700

Download or read book The Refashioning of Catholicism 1450 1700 written by Robert Bireley and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2015-12-31 with total page 239 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Unlike the traditional terms Counter-Reformation or Catholic Reform, this book does not see Catholicism from 1450 to 1700 primarily in relationship to the Protestant Reformation but as both shaped by the revolutionary changes of the early modern period and actively refashioning itself in response to these changes: the emergence of the early modern state; economic growth and social dislocation; the expansion of Europe across the seas; the Renaissance; and, to be sure, the Protestant Reformation. Bireley devotes particular attention to new methods of evangelization in the Old World and the New, education at the elementary, secondary and university levels, the new active religious orders of women and men, and the effort to create a spirituality for the Christian living in the world. A final chapter looks at the issues raised by Machiavelli, Galileo and Pascal. Robert Bireley is a leading Jesuit historian and uniquely well placed to reassess this centrally important subject for understanding the dynamics of early modern Europe. This book will be of great value to all those studying the political, social, religious and cultural history of the period.

  • Author : MICHAEL A. MULLETT
  • Publisher : Routledge
  • Release : 2023-06-14
  • ISBN : 9781032506647
  • Pages : 0 pages

Download or read book The Catholic Reformation written by MICHAEL A. MULLETT and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2023-06-14 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Catholic Reformation (1999) provides a dynamic and original history of this crucial movement in early modern Europe. Starting from the late middle ages, it clearly traces the continuous transformation of Catholicism in its structure, bodies and doctrine. Charting the gain in momentum of Catholic renewal from the time of the Council of Trent, it also considers the ambiguous effect of the Protestant Reformation in accelerating the renovation of the Catholic Church. It explores how and why the Catholic Reformation occurred, stressing that many moves towards restoration were underway well before the Protestant Reformation. The huge impact the Catholic renewal had, not only on the papacy, Church leaders and religious ritual and practice, but also on the lives of ordinary people - their culture, arts, attitudes and relationships - is shown in colourful detail.

Book Protestant and Catholic Reform

Download or read book Protestant and Catholic Reform written by Enzo Bellini and published by Harper San Francisco. This book was released on 1981 with total page 134 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Protestant Reformation and the Catholic or Counter-Reformation form the main topic of this book, the seventh in the series. In the sixteenth century, abuses in the Church demanded correction. The religious revolution began in earnest in 1517, sparked by Martin Luther, a German Augustinian monk. Other great leaders, especially John Calvin, spread Protestant ideas; religious differences spread throughout Europe, leading to deep divisions. The modern world began with these unhappy divisions, but it began also with that serious seeking for God which is a noble inheritance left by Luther and his contemporaries.

  • ISBN : 0812203496

Download or read book Protestant Empire written by Carla Gardina Pestana and published by University of Pennsylvania Press. This book was released on 2011-06 with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The imperial expansion of Europe across the globe was one of the most significant events to shape the modern world. Among the many effects of this cataclysmic movement of people and institutions was the intermixture of cultures in the colonies that Europeans created. Protestant Empire is the first comprehensive survey of the dramatic clash of peoples and beliefs that emerged in the diverse religious world of the British Atlantic, including England, Scotland, Ireland, parts of North and South America, the Caribbean, and Africa. Beginning with the role religion played in the lives of believers in West Africa, eastern North America, and western Europe around 1500, Carla Gardina Pestana shows how the Protestant Reformation helped to fuel colonial expansion as bitter rivalries prompted a fierce competition for souls. The English—who were latecomers to the contest for colonies in the Atlantic—joined the competition well armed with a newly formulated and heartfelt anti-Catholicism. Despite officially promoting religious homogeneity, the English found it impossible to prevent the conflicts in their homeland from infecting their new colonies. Diversity came early and grew inexorably, as English, Scottish, and Irish Catholics and Protestants confronted one another as well as Native Americans, West Africans, and an increasing variety of other Europeans. Pestana tells an original and compelling story of their interactions as they clung to their old faiths, learned of unfamiliar religions, and forged new ones. In an account that ranges widely through the Atlantic basin and across centuries, this book reveals the creation of a complicated, contested, and closely intertwined world of believers of many traditions.

Book Preaching Power

  • Author : Charles A. Witschorik
  • Publisher : Wipf and Stock Publishers
  • Release : 2013-10-21
  • ISBN : 1630870226
  • Pages : 367 pages

Download or read book Preaching Power written by Charles A. Witschorik and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2013-10-21 with total page 367 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book uses a gender perspective to examine sermons and other officially endorsed discourses of the Catholic Church in eighteenth- and nineteenth-century Mexico City. Analyzing the different ways that, over time, gendered images, metaphors, and hagiographical examples were used in sermons and other documents, the book examines how the church negotiated challenges to its cultural and ideological hegemony. Beginning with sermons from the early eighteenth century, the author follows the evolution of church discourses as preachers reveled in Baroque analogies, embraced ideals of the Enlightenment, targeted women's alleged moral vices at times of political crisis, and ultimately turned to notions of women as "the devout sex" in order to combat incipient liberalism. Put another way, liberals after independence were not the only ones to assert a kind of "republican motherhood": preachers countered with a vision of "Catholic motherhood" that had great resonance in Mexico even into the twentieth century.
