Il prossimo Giubileo, dedicato alla speranza, riprende - secondo l’Autore - molti dei temi del Giubileo Straordinario della Misericordia indetto da papa Francesco nel 2015. Anche perché è proprio la misericordia la linea che unisce tutti gli anni giubilari, ordinari e straordinari, che si sono susseguiti dal Concilio a oggi. Si tratta di un concetto che percorre i pontificati di Giovanni XXIII, Paolo VI, Giovanni Paolo I, Giovanni Paolo II, Benedetto XVI fino a papa Francesco: l’accesso del peccatore all’indulgenza e la speranza di ottenere il perdono delle proprie colpe sono centro di questo Anno Santo che, come tutti i giubilei, si caratterizzerà con riti antichi e suggestivi come l’apertura della Porta Santa e della pratica del pellegrinaggio giubilare verso Roma. Il testo ha la prefazione di monsignor Rino Fisichella, incaricato dal Papa dell’organizzazione dell’Anno Santo. Prefazione di Mons.

Book excerpt: FREDERICK THE SECOND is the story of the remarkable man whose power and sphere of influence straddled the worlds of Christendom and of Islam. The last of the Hohenstaufens, HolyRoman Emperor and King of Sicily and Jerusalem, Frederick II was an energetic and versatile ruler, a man of great ambition in whose lifetime the conflict between Emperor and Pope reached a newintensity. Excommunicated three times by the Church, he was an absolute monarch whose power, defended in almost continuous struggle, extended over much of Germany and Italy as well as the Holy Land. Frederick was a complex man of cultured tastes and licentious manners who had unusually wide intellectual interests. At his Sicilian court scholars of all religions were welcomed--Christian, Jewish, Mohammedan. He founded the University of Naples in 1224 and was a patron of the arts and sciences. The life of this dynamic man is fully explored in Ernst Kantorowicz's notable biography, filled with dramatic incident and absorbing detail, and written with style and scholarship.

Book Il Giubileo della misericordia

Download or read book Il Giubileo della misericordia written by Tommaso Stenico and published by Imprimatur editore. This book was released on 2015-08-27 with total page 216 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Il logo del Giubileo, opera di padre Marko Ivan Rupnik, rappresenta una summa teologica della misericordia. Nel motto, tratto dal Vangelo di Luca 6,36 – «Misericordiosi come il Padre» – si propone di vivere la misericordia sull’esempio di Dio Padre che chiede di non giudicare e di non condannare, ma di perdonare e di donare amore senza misura. L’immagine propone il Figlio che si carica sulle spalle l’uomo smarrito. È il Buon Pastore che, con estrema misericordia, assume su di sé i peccati dell’umanità mentre i suoi occhi si confondono con quelli dell’uomo. Il 13 marzo 2015, giorno dell’ingresso nel terzo anno del suo Pontificato, Papa Francesco ha indetto l’Anno Santo straordinario con la Bolla Misericordiae Vultus. Questo anno giubilare invita tutti a diventare uomini e donne della misericordia. Ma siamo sicuri di conoscere a pieno il significato di tale invito? Siamo pronti a cogliere questa occasione per cambiare noi stessi, per imprimere un senso nuovo alle nostre vite? Nel volume, monsignor Stenico fornisce gli strumenti per arrivare preparati all’evento più importante del mondo cattolico: indagando dapprima proprio il concetto di misericordia, raccontando la storia del Giubileo cattolico e dei suoi riti, spiegando l’importanza del pellegrinaggio e, nella seconda parte, approfondendo i temi di questo Giubileo, che ricorre nei cinquant’anni del Concilio Vaticano II. In appendice il testo integrale della Bolla Misericordiae Vultus, il calendario giubilare e una sintesi dell’Esortazione Apostolica Evangelii Gaudium. Tommaso Stenico, ordinato sacerdote nel 1971, ha conseguito il dottorato in teologia presso la Pontificia Università di San Tommaso d’Aquino in Urbe e il dottorato in psicopedagogia presso la Facoltà di Magistero dell’Università degli Studi La Sapienza di Roma.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Syn�goroi are widely known in Athenian law to have served as supporting speakers and aids to the main prosecutors within a courtroom. Lene Rubinstein argues that these people were an important part of court practice and social and political litigation, though largely ignored in many previous studies of Athenian politics. Her study draws extensively on the speeches of syn�goroi , revealing their multi-functionality as witnesses, as co-speakers alongside the main prosecutor and as part of a collaborative legal team.

Download or read book Zealots for Souls written by Anne Huijbers and published by Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG. This book was released on 2018-01-22 with total page 402 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Zealots for souls draws attention to the impact of the Observant reforms within the Order of Preachers, and ambitiously stirs up a broad scope of questions pertaining to the institutional narratives produced within the order between c. 1388 and 1517. Through the narratives and the forms of remembrance they fostered, the author traces the development of contemporary characteristics of the Dominican self-understanding. The book shows the fluid boundaries between the genres (order chronicles, convent chronicles, collective biographies), highlights the interplay between the narrative and the intended audience, addresses the complex question of authorship, and assesses the indebtedness of 'modern' (printed) narratives to older chronicles or biographical collections. The book demonstrates that the majority of the extant institutional narratives were written by Observant Dominicans, who strived for the internal reform of their order. They wrote history to justify their own reform agenda and therefore produced invariably partisan chronicles. The work's method is widely applicable and contributes to further reassessment of institutional narratives as sources for the analysis of religious and intellectual transformations.

Book Liturgical Time and Space

Download or read book Liturgical Time and Space written by Anscar J. Chupungco and published by Liturgical Press. This book was released on 2000 with total page 682 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The final volume in the Handbook for Liturgical Studies series, Volume V: Liturgical Time and Space contains the concluding material for an integral study of the liturgy. It opens with a preliminary notion of time and space, before discussing in detail three types of liturgical celebrations on which time and space have a direct and particular bearing. The first of these is the Liturgy of the Hours. This topic is developed in the light of the early Christian tradition until the fourth century and its subsequent forms in both East and West. The second is the Liturgical Year, traditionally called the anni circulas. The development of the Liturgical Year during the first four centuries is reviewed. This is followed by adetaled study of the Byzantine, Roman, and non-Roman Western tradition. It concludes with the theology and spirituality of the Liturgical Year wherein the mystery of Christ as a saving event is made present in time, so that the faithful may lay hold of it through the Word and the sacraments. The theology of liturgical space is drawn from the mutual interaction between the assembled community, which gives meaning to the place of assembly, and the place itself, which upholds and signifies community.

Book A Military History of the Mediterranean Sea

Download or read book A Military History of the Mediterranean Sea written by and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2018-05-07 with total page 489 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Mediterranean has always attracted the imagination of modern historians as the epicentre of great political entities, such as the Egyptians, Greeks, Romans, Arabs, Ottomans, Venetians, and Spanish. However, it seems that the sea itself was always on the margins of historical inquiry – at least, until the publication of the famous two-volume work by F. Braudel in 1949. This collection of essays aims to offer a vertical history of war in the Mediterranean Sea, from the early Middle Ages to the early modernity, putting the emphasis on the changing face of several different aspects and contexts of war over time. Contributors are Stephen Bennett, Stathis Birtachas, Cornel Bontea, Wayne H. Bowen, Lilia Campana, Raffaele D’Amato, Elina Gugliuzzo, Nikolaos Kanellopoulos, Savvas Kyriakides, Tilemachos Lounghis, Alan V. Murray, Chrysovalantis Papadamou, Jacopo Pessina, Philip Rance, Georgios Theotokis, Iason Tzouriadis, Ian Wilson, and Aysel Yildiz.

Download or read book History of the Adriatic written by Egidio Ivetic and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2022-05-27 with total page 311 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Adriatic is ‘the small Mediterranean’ – a sea within a sea, part of the Mediterranean and at the same time detached from it, a largely enclosed sea with stunning coastlines and a long history of commercial, political and cultural exchange. Silent witness to the flow of civilizations, the Adriatic is the meeting point of East and West where many empires had their frontiers and some overlapped. With Italy on one side and the Balkans on the other, the Adriatic is the area where the Latin West became intertwined with the Greek and Ottoman East. This book tells the history of the Adriatic from the first cultures of the Neolithic Age through to the present day. All of the great civilizations and cultures that bordered and crossed the Adriatic are discussed: Ancient Greece and Rome, Byzantium and the Holy Roman Empire, Venice and the Ottomans, Catholicism, Orthodox Christianity and Islam. Byzantium was replaced by Venice, queen of the Adriatic, which reached its zenith at the beginning of the sixteenth century and maintained commercial and military hegemony in its Gulf, sharing the sea with the Turks, the Habsburgs, the Pope and the Spanish vice-kingdom of Naples. It was Napoleon who ended Venice’s reign in 1797. In the nineteenth century, the Austrian Empire prevailed, and Central Europe reached the Mediterranean through the Adriatic. United Italy placed its most symbolic frontier in the eastern Adriatic, clashing with Austria-Hungary in the First World War. The twentieth century was marked by the prolonged conflicts and eventually peace between Yugoslavia, Albania and Italy. Today the Adriatic is a region increasingly integrated into the European Union, experiencing a new era of cooperation following the dramatic collapse of Yugoslavia. Across centuries, this book illustrates the rich cultural and artistic heritage of diverse civilizations as they left their mark on the cities, shores and states of the Adriatic.
