Download or read book Love and Despair written by Jaime M. Pensado and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 2023-06-13 with total page 374 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Love and Despair explores the multiple and mostly unknown ways progressive and conservative Catholic actors, such as priests, lay activists, journalists, intellectuals, and filmmakers, responded to the significant social and cultural shifts that formed competing notions of modernity in Cold War Mexico. Jaime M. Pensado demonstrates how the Catholic Church as a heterogeneous institution--with key transnational networks in Latin America and Western Europe--was invested in youth activism, state repression, and the counterculture from the postwar period to the more radical Sixties. Similar to their secular counterparts, progressive Catholics often saw themselves as revolutionary actors and nearly always framed their activism as an act of love. When their movements were repressed and their ideas were co-opted, marginalized, and commercialized at the end of the Sixties, the liberating hope of love often turned into a sense of despair.

Book excerpt: In the crusader period Acre was in many ways a remarkable place, but the most striking thing about its history is the number of times it fell to enemies. The present volume Acre and Its Falls is unusual in that it analyses a wide range of aspects of the history of Acre across the crusader period, combining political, military and cultural history, with a notable emphasis on the memory of the city in Europe.

Download or read book Psychology in Brazil written by Silvia Helena Koller and published by Springer. This book was released on 2019-04-16 with total page 383 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents an overview of the work of the most important Psychology researchers in Brazil, contributing to the internationalization of the discipline and fostering cross-cultural approaches in the field. Over the last two decades, Psychology research has experienced an enormous growth in Brazil, which has placed the country among the ten nations with the highest scientific output in the area. A big part of this output, however, remains inaccessible to the majority of the international community because it’s mainly published in Portuguese. This book intends to overcome this barrier, presenting a highly relevant sample of the best Psychology research produced in Brazil to those who are unable to read in Portuguese. In each chapter, a top Brazilian researcher is invited to present a summary of his/her main contributions to the field. The result is a rich overview of the main areas in which Brazilian psychologists have concentrated their work over the last decades, such as Developmental Psychology, Community Psychology, Educational and School Psychology, Evolutionary Psychology, Health Psychology, History of Psychology and Social Psychology. By putting together such a wide array of topics, Psychology in Brazil – Scientists Making a Difference offers a rich overview of the research in the country to psychologists, educators and social scientists in general interested in cross-cultural approaches within the Behavioral Sciences.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "These critical studies propose innovative readings and overall reformulations of the texts and authors that stand as representative of the period for the contemporary reader. The first group of articles refers to reports, chronicles, and Renaissance epics, a vast block of texts that fall in most cases halfway between history and narrative fiction, and examine the experiences of the discovery, the conquest, and the colonization of the new territories. The second group concentrates on regionally marked texts from the Baroque period, especially those of the central figure of the Mexican nun poet and intellectual, Sor Juana In s de la Cruz. Finally, there are some essays on representative texts of the latter part of the colonial period."--Publisher's description.

Download or read book Pathways through Early Modern Christianities written by Andreea Badea and published by Böhlau Köln. This book was released on 2023-06-12 with total page 334 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the midst of a global pandemic, the Frankfurt POLY (Polycentricity and Plurality of Premodern Christianities) Lectures on "Pathways through Early Modern Christianities" brought together a virtual, global community of scholars and students in the Spring and Summer of 2021 to discuss the fascinating nature of early modern religious life. In this book, eleven pathbreaking scholars from the "four corners" of the early modern world reflect on the analytical tools that structure their field and that they have developed, revised and embraced in their scholarship: from generations to tolerance, from uniformity to publicity, from accommodation to local religion, from polycentrism to connected histories, and from identity to object agency. Together, the chapters of this reference work help both students and advanced researchers alike to appreciate the extent of our current knowledge about early modern christianities in their interconnected global context—and what exciting new travels could lie ahead.

Download or read book O Enigma de Judas written by Otto Gunter and published by Luiz Santos. This book was released on 2024-11-03 with total page 216 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: O Enigma de Judas - O Traidor Revelado Em um mundo onde as narrativas religiosas tradicionais consolidaram Judas Iscariotes como o traidor definitivo, surge uma revelação que desestabiliza séculos de dogmas e certezas. "O Enigma de Judas" convida o leitor a penetrar nos mistérios mais profundos do Evangelho de Judas, uma escritura esquecida que emerge como um símbolo do conhecimento proibido, reservado apenas àqueles que ousam questionar as verdades estabelecidas. Através de diálogos enigmáticos e revelações surpreendentes, Jesus desvela a Judas o segredo por trás da natureza do cosmos, expondo a existência de um criador menor, o Demiurgo, que aprisiona as almas humanas em um ciclo perpétuo de ignorância e sofrimento. Neste evangelho, Judas não é o vilão simplista que conhecemos, mas o discípulo que compreende o verdadeiro significado do sacrifício, aquele que enxerga além das ilusões do mundo material e assume um papel essencial para a libertação da alma. Otto Gunter nos guia por uma jornada de autoconhecimento e transcendência, revelando que a traição de Judas pode ser vista como um ato de redenção cósmica, um passo necessário para libertar o espírito do Salvador e abrir o caminho para a ascensão espiritual. Sob a luz do gnosticismo, "O Enigma de Judas" questiona a autoridade divina e desafia as interpretações ortodoxas, convidando o leitor a uma profunda reflexão sobre fé, liberdade espiritual e o poder libertador do conhecimento oculto. Este livro é mais que uma narrativa; é um convite à introspecção, um caminho para aqueles que buscam a verdade além dos véus da moralidade convencional. Prepare-se para explorar uma nova visão de Judas, onde a verdadeira traição talvez seja permanecer cego às revelações que se escondem por trás das aparências.
Download or read book The Fifth Crusade in Context written by E.J. Mylod and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2016-10-14 with total page 265 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Fifth Crusade represented a cardinal event in early thirteenth-century history, occurring during what was probably the most intensive period of crusading in both Europe and the Holy Land. Following the controversial outcome of the Fourth Crusade in 1204, and the decrees of the Fourth Lateran Council in 1215, Pope Innocent III's reform agenda was set to give momentum to a new crusading effort. Despite the untimely death of Innocent III in 1216, the elaborate organisation and firm crusading framework made it possible for Pope Honorius III to launch and oversee the expedition. The Fifth Crusade marked the last time that a medieval pope would succeed in mounting a full-scale, genuinely international crusade for the recovery of the Holy Land, yet, despite its significance, it has largely been neglected in the historiography. The crusade was much more than just a military campaign, and the present book locates it in the contemporary context for the first time. The Fifth Crusade in Context is of crucial importance not only to better understand the organization and execution of the expedition itself, but also to appreciate its place in the longer history of crusading, as well as the significance of its impact on the medieval world.

Download or read book Our Lady of Guadalupe written by Stafford Poole and published by University of Arizona Press. This book was released on 1995 with total page 348 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The devotion to Our Lady of Guadalupe, based on the story of apparitions of the Virgin Mary to Juan Diego, an Indian neophyte, at the hill of Tepeyac in December 1531, is one of the most important formative religious and national symbols in the history of Mexico. In this first work ever to examine in depth every historical source of the Guadalupe apparitions, Stafford Poole traces the origins and history of the account, and in the process challenges many commonly accepted assumptions and interpretations. Poole finds that, despite common belief, the apparition account was unknown prior to 1648, when it was first published by a Mexican priest. And then, the virgin became the predominant devotion not of the Indians, but of the criollos, who found in the story a legitimization of their own national aspirations and an almost messianic sense of mission and identity. Poole finds no evidence of a contemporary association of the Virgin of Guadalupe with the Mexican goddess Tonantzin, as is frequently assumed, and he rejects the common assertion that the early missionaries consciously substituted Guadalupe for a preconquest deity.
