Book Historia de la Iglesia en Hispanoam  rica y Filipinas  siglos XV XIX   Aspectos generales

Download or read book Historia de la Iglesia en Hispanoam rica y Filipinas siglos XV XIX Aspectos generales written by Pedro Borges and published by . This book was released on 1992 with total page 876 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La historia de la Iglesia en Hispanoamérica y Filipinas durante la época española está necesitada de una visión de conjunto que, superando la brevedad de un esbozo, la sintetice sin incurrir en prolijidad. Tal es el objetivo que persiguen estos dos volúmenes, cuya concepción obedece al criterio de que el lector culto, el investigador no especializado en este campo e incluso los alumnos de centros de estudios superiores dispongan de un instrumento de lectura, de consulta o de estudio que les oriente en el planteamiento, en el enfoque y en el actual estado de conocimiento de los diversos aspectos de esa historia, cronológicamente breve, temática-mente complicada e ideológicamente controvertida. El primer volumen no es una introducción al segundo, ni éste es una continuación de aquél. El primero está concebido como una amplia y desmenuzada síntesis de los numerosos aspectos que ofrece la historia en América y Filipinas, a fin de proporcionar una idea suficientemente fundada del funcionamiento y actividad de esta institución. Con él queda básicamente trazada la historia de la Iglesia en el espacio geográfico señalado. Si a este primer volumen se le ha adicionado el segundo no es porque el primero sea algo incompleto, sino porque las conveniencias históricas y las necesidades del mundo hispanoamericano y filipino aconsejan dejar en claro cómo se plasmaron las variadas facetas de la Iglesia, aludidas anterior-mente, en las diversas naciones o regiones que hoy constituyen el antiguo Nuevo Mundo. Esta faceta de lo nacional o regional es lo que ha inducido a que los colaboradores del segundo volumen sean en su mayoría naturales o residentes de la nación que historian, criterio del que solamente se ha prescindido cuando las circunstancias han obliga-do involuntariamente a ello y que en el primero no se ha tenido en cuenta por la índole supranacional de los temas. Es de esperar que con la presente Historia, por la autoridad que al tratamiento de cada tema le otorga la reconocida preparación de los diversos auto-res, sirva de punto de partida para enfocar en adelante correctamente la actividad de la Iglesia en Hispanoamérica y Filipinas encuadrándola debidamente en lo que por lo general se desconoce: el verdadero ambiente y las auténticas dimensiones en las que se desarrolló esa actividad.

Book The Jesuits

    Book Details:
  • Author : John W. O'Malley
  • Publisher : University of Toronto Press
  • Release : 2016-01-28
  • ISBN : 1487511930
  • Pages : 804 pages

Download or read book The Jesuits written by John W. O'Malley and published by University of Toronto Press. This book was released on 2016-01-28 with total page 804 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In recent years scholars in a range of disciplines have begun to re-evaluate the history of the Society of Jesus. Approaching the subject with new questions and methods, they have reconsidered the importance of the Society in many sectors, including those related to the sciences and the arts. They have also looked at the Jesuits as emblematic of certain traits of early modern Europeans, especially as those Europeans interacted with 'the Other' in Asia and the Americas. Originating in an international conference held at Boston College in 1997, the thirty-five essays here reflect this new historiographical trend. Focusing on the Old Society- the Society before its suppression in 1773 by papal edict- they examine the worldwide Jesuit undertaking in such fields as music, art, architecture, devotional writing, mathematics, physics, astronomy, natural history, public performance, and education, and they give special attention to the Jesuits' interaction with non-European cultures, in North and South America, China, India, and the Philippines. A picture emerges not only of the individual Jesuit, who might be missionary, diplomat, architect, and playwright over the course of his life in the Society, but also of the immense and many-faceted Jesuit enterprise as forming a kind of 'cultural ecosystem'. The Jesuits of the Old Society liked to think they had a way of proceeding special to themselves. The question, Was there a Jesuit style, a Jesuit corporate culture? is the thread that runs through this interdisciplinary collection of studies.

Book The Histories of the Latin American Church

Download or read book The Histories of the Latin American Church written by Joel M. Cruz and published by Fortress Press. This book was released on 2014-11-15 with total page 650 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Latin American Christianity is too often presented as a unified story appended to the end of larger western narratives. And yet the stories of Christianity in Latin America are as varied and diverse as the lands and the peoples who live there. The unique political, ecclesial, social, and historical realities of each nation inevitably shaped a variety of Christian expressions in each. Now, for the first time, a resource exists to help students and scholars understand the histories of Latin American Christianity. An ideal resource, this handbook is designed as an accompaniment to reading and research in the field. After a generous overview to the history and theology of the region, the text moves nation-by-nation, providing timelines, outlines, and substantial introductions to the politics, people, movements, and relevant facts of Christianity as experienced in that nation. The result is an informative and eye-opening introduction to a kaleidoscope of efforts to articulate the meanings and implications of Christianity in the context of Latin America.

The inclusion of German research in this book is an important asset to the Anglo-American research area, in disclosing information that was hitherto not available in English. This work will present the reader with a very good survey into the history of Christianity on the South American continent, based on a tremendous breadth of literature.

Book Essays from the Margins

    Book Details:
  • Author : Luis N Rivera-Pagan
  • Publisher : Lutterworth Press
  • Release : 2015-04-30
  • ISBN : 0718843975
  • Pages : 198 pages

Download or read book Essays from the Margins written by Luis N Rivera-Pagan and published by Lutterworth Press. This book was released on 2015-04-30 with total page 198 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: These essays emerge from different crucial and complex conflicts: from the memory of a bishop, Bartolome de las Casas, urging the pope of his time to cleanse the church of complicity with violence, oppression, and slavery; from the lament and defiance ofso many Middle Eastern women, victims of male domination and too many wars; from the voices bursting out from the colonial margins that dare to question and transgress the norms and laws imposed by colonizers and conquerors; from the emerging and diversetheological disruptions of traditional orthodoxies and rigid dogmatisms; from the denial of human rights to immigrant communities, living in the shadows of opulent societies; from the use of the sacred Hebrew Scriptures to displace and dispossess the indigenous peoples of Palestine. The essays belong to different intellectual genres and conceptual crossroads and are thus illustrative of the dialogic imagination that the Russian intellectual Mikhail Bakhtin considered basic to any serious intellectual enterprise. They are also the literary sediment of years of sharing lectures, dialogues, and debates in several academic institutions in the United States, Mexico, Argentina, Chile, Costa Rica, Malaysia, Switzerland, Germany, and Palestine.

Book Franciscan Spirituality and Mission in New Spain  1524 1599

Download or read book Franciscan Spirituality and Mission in New Spain 1524 1599 written by Steven E. Turley and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-04-15 with total page 326 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Franciscans in sixteenth-century New Spain were deeply ambivalent about their mission work. Fray Juan de Zumárraga, the first archbishop of Mexico, begged the king to find someone else to do his job so that he could go home. Fray Juan de Ribas, one of the original twelve 'apostles of Mexico' and a founding pillar of the church in New Spain, later fled with eleven other friars into the wilderness to escape the demands of building that church. Fray Jerónimo de Mendieta, having returned from an important preaching tour in New Spain, wrote to his superior that he did not want to enlist again, and that the only way he would return to the mission field was if God dragged him by the hair. This discontent was widespread, grew stronger with time, and carried important consequences for the friars' interactions with indigenous peoples, their Catholic co-laborers, and colonial society at large. This book examines that discontent and seeks to explain why the exhilaration of joining such a 'glorious' enterprise so often gave way to grinding discontent. The core argument is that, despite St. Francis's own longing to do mission work, his followers in New Spain found that effective evangelization in a frontier context was fundamentally incompatible with their core spirituality. Bringing together two streams of historiography that have rarely overlapped - spirituality and missions - this book marks a strong contribution to the history of spirituality in both Latin America and Europe, as well as to the growing fields of transatlantic and world history.

Book The Cambridge History of Global Migrations  Volume 1  Migrations  1400   1800

Download or read book The Cambridge History of Global Migrations Volume 1 Migrations 1400 1800 written by Cátia Antunes and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2023-06-01 with total page 1067 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Volume I documents the lives and experiences of everyday people through the lens of human movement and mobility from 1400–1800. Focusing on the most important typologies of pre-industrial global migrations, this volume reveals how these movements transformed global paths of mobility, the impacts of which we still see in societies today. Case studies include those that arose from the demand of free, forced and unfree labour, long and short distance trade, rural/urban displacement, religious mobility and the rise of the number of refugees worldwide. With thirty chapters from leading experts in the field, this authoritative volume is an essential and detailed study of how migration shaped the nature of global human interactions before the age of modern globalization.

  • Publisher : Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG
  • Release : 2024-11-04
  • ISBN : 3111455203

Download or read book News from the Epicentre written by Gennaro Varriale and published by Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG. This book was released on 2024-11-04 with total page 301 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For decades historians argued for the downfall of communication, when early modern societies were hit by a natural disaster. After all, earthquakes caused the destruction of infrastructure, which hindered the spread of news. Instead, the last investigations opened a new point of view about the political communication: every crisis was a catalyst for news. The book widens this reading through a comparative analysis of several earthquakes in the Hispanic Monarchy territories, from Asia to America. However, the examination of communications provided in this volume is not an end in itself but is offered as a basis for reflection and to propose the notion that earthquakes trigger change in social and political dynamics. Earthquake-related crises exposed the underlying contradictions that the court of Madrid needed to address in the most effective way, and, if possible, swiftly. Earthquakes not only destroyed buildings and infrastructure but also social norms. Urgency reduced the distance between interlocutors, to some extent blurring the boundaries of self-censorship. Tremors therefore offer a rare opportunity to observe the political and military crises faced by the Hispanic Monarchy, the global empire of the time.

Book Bernardo de G  lvez

Download or read book Bernardo de G lvez written by Gonzalo M. Quintero Saravia and published by UNC Press Books. This book was released on 2018-03-23 with total page 617 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although Spain was never a formal ally of the United States during the American Revolution, its entry into the war definitively tipped the balance against Britain. Led by Bernardo de Galvez, supreme commander of the Spanish forces in North America, their military campaigns against British settlements on the Mississippi River—and later against Mobile and Pensacola—were crucial in preventing Britain from concentrating all its North American military and naval forces on the fight against George Washington's Continental army. In this first comprehensive biography of Galvez (1746@–86), Gonzalo M. Quintero Saravia assesses the commander's considerable historical impact and expands our understanding of Spain's contribution to the war. A man of both empire and the Enlightenment, as viceroy of New Spain (1785@–86), Galvez was also pivotal in the design and implementation of Spanish colonial reforms, which included the reorganization of Spain's Northern Frontier that brought peace to the region for the duration of the Spanish presence in North America. Extensively researched through Spanish, Mexican, and U.S. archives, Quintero Saravia's portrait of Galvez reveals him as central to the histories of the Revolution and late eighteenth-century America and offers a reinterpretation of the international factors involved in the American War for Independence.
