Download or read book Introducation to Mariology written by Manfred Hauke and published by Catholic University of America Press. This book was released on 2020-09-11 with total page 592 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Introduction to Mariology, Fr. Manfred Hauke provides a synthesis of Mariology and the biblical fundaments and development of Marian doctrine. While it works as a comprehensive introduction suitable for courses on the subject, it is in reality a panoramic view on the entire Marian doctrine, and as such will be essential for the theological formation of seminarians, priests, theologians, and all kinds of educated Catholics. With an unparalleled bibliographic citation of Marian literature across a dozen languages, it is also a perfect gateway to further research on the subject. It begins with Biblical doctrine, which is important especially for the dialogue with Protestant denominations: Catholic Mariology can be traced in its “embryonic” state already in Holy Scripture. From there Hauke presents a historical overview of the whole development of Marian doctrine, before developing further historical details in the subsequent chapters dedicated to systematic issues. The first systematic step approaches the figure of Mary through her role in the mystery of the Covenant between God and redeemed humanity; her being “Mother of God” and companion of the Redeemer is the “fundamental principle.” Then the four established Marian dogmas are presented: divine maternity, virginity, Immaculate Conception (in a chapter on Mary’s holiness more broadly), and bodily Assumption. A close look is given to maternal mediation which includes a part dedicated to the “Mater Unitatis”. A stand alone chapter is dedicated to Marian apparitions; authentic apparitions are presented as a part of prophetic charisma. The last chapter presents the basics on Marian devotion which culminates in the consecration to Mary (as a response to her maternal mediation). Already available in Spanish, Italian, Portugese, and Korean, this landmark work is published here for the first time in English.

This book was released on 2014-07-07T00:00:00+02:00 with total page 43 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Il volumetto propone la prolusione d'apertura al Convegno internazionale «Il concilio ecumenico Vaticano II alla luce degli archivi dei padri conciliari» (3-5.10.2012), promosso dal Pontificio comitato di scienze storiche in collaborazione col Centro studi e ricerche «Concilio Vaticano II» della Pontificia università lateranense. Il contributo si sofferma su tre nodi ermeneutici emergenti dai principali fatti e documenti del periodo di cui il Congresso si occupa: il rapporto tra l'elemento teologico e quello storico, e di conseguenza la definizione del «soggetto» dell'ermeneutica conciliare; la questione dell'«indole pastorale del Vaticano II»; e l'intreccio tra «evento» e «corpus dottrinale». L'intenzione dichiarata, «offrire qualche pista per un'adeguata ermeneutica conciliare necessaria per comprendere il processo di recezione», trova nell'idea di riforma nella continuità, proposta da Benedetto XVI, la categoria che sembra «più conveniente per leggere la natura dell'evento conciliare e per un'adeguata ermeneutica del suo corpus nell'ottica della pastoralità».
Download or read book Fatima at the Heart of the Church written by Fr Serafino M Lanzetta and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2018-05-13 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "We would be mistaken to think that Fatima's prophetic mission is complete." With these words, spoken by Pope Benedict XVI at Fatima on 13th May 2010, this great Marian prophecy came back to the centre of the Church. The third part of the Secret was to be read not only in reference to the martyrs of the twentieth century, but as a vision of the world and of the Church at Her very core. Can that "Portugal" - where the dogma of faith would be preserved - be also every nation and every person who, welcoming Our Lady's requests to consecrate oneself to Her Immaculate Heart and practise the devotion of the Five First Saturdays, would escape material and spiritual ruin? The city situated on the hill, in fact, was half in ruin. The true Faith is beset and fading. But a great hope shines: the Immaculate Heart of Mary, that pure place where God abides.
Download or read book Vatican II written by Serafino Lanzetta and published by . This book was released on 2016-04-28 with total page 552 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What is the meaning of the expression 'pastoral' applied to the Second Vatican Council? This seems a most difficult question to answer. Vatican II was a pastoral council, presenting teachings in a new, enriched manner, in a style which was not assertive or censorious, but descriptive or narrative. It also inaugurated a new way of being Council, although one must be careful to ensure that an over-enthusiastic welcome of the Council as 'event' does not obscure the rich conciliar texts and constant teaching of the Church. This new conciliar style can perhaps be seen as the passage from what is the Church to how it operates in the modern world. As a new conciliar paradigm, it can open the way to seeing Vatican II in a new light-hence the need to differentiate carefully a number of elements: the mind of the Council, the different nature of the documents, and the different magisterial authority even within the same documents. This book aims at clarifying and indicating a possible hermeneutical principle, leading towards a more faithful reception of the Second Vatican Council, which respects the Council in its precise identity and so gives the conciliar teaching its true place in a revealed and defined structure. Hopefully this historical and theological research, involving numerous archive documents, might help looking at Vatican II as a way which will foster unity within the Church.

Book excerpt: Gift and Communion offers a critical presentation of John Paul II's theology of the body, understood in the light of Christian theological tradition. The main thesis of the book is that John Paul II's theology of the body forms a new, inspiring approach to Christian ethics and the theology of marriage and family, as well as to theological anthropology. A central thrust of Gift and Communion is to treat theology of the body - as it deserves - in all its philosophical and theological seriousness and to present it as an important stage in the historical development of Catholic theology

Book excerpt: Faith as a door is a fascinating image. A new horizon appears at precisely the moment when a man decides to cross the threshold and look out at the reality that is beyond his doorstep. Yet, faith turns out to be an absurdity in today's post-Christian society. Reason would no longer be able to furnish us with certainties, such as the foundational role of truth to undertake the study of any discipline. Consequently, God is nonsensical. But while reason has seen its oblivion, there is however an attempt, in a dominant relativism, to overcome the role of reason with love. Love would mean and do more than truth. Love without truth-namely without its bond with reason- is empty, a mere sentiment, as, on the contrary, truth without love is a cold system of causality. Reason and love have rather to go hand in hand. Their circularity on a natural level, which includes the harmonic relation between intellect and will, is the condition for faith and charity to work out their indispensable complementarity. The paradigm "reason and love" is then propaedeutic to verifying for instance the correct relationship between doctrine and pastoral care or to showing how dangerous it is to ignore it. Bad effects of a denied encounter between reason and love can be seen in religious fundamentalisms or in a religious freedom that easily prefers social religious stability to the priority of the true God and true religion.
Download or read book Il Concilio Vaticano II written by Gilles Routhier and published by Vita e Pensiero. This book was released on 2007 with total page 408 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Quarant'anni fa, con il Concilio Vaticano la Chiesa Cattolica ha realizzato una svolta di straordinaria importanza, assumendo consapevolezza della storia in cui vive e dandosi con entusiasmo orientamenti che le schiudevano nuove strade per proseguire il suo cammino. Fu un periodo di fioritura eccezionale, di promesse e di sogni, che Giovanni XXIII descrisse con le immagini di "primavera" e "nuova Pentecoste". Tuttavia, nelle mutate condizioni storico-culturali dei decenni successivi al Concilio, la scelta di rinnovamento non sembrò produrre gli effetti sperati: l'entusiasmo iniziale si trasformò in perplessità e l'opposizione al Concilio, fino ad allora marginale, riuscì ad organizzarsi e farsi sentire. Gilles Routhier ha raccolto in questo volume le sue riflessioni sul Vaticano Il, tenendo presenti l'interesse attuale verso il Concilio, la proposta di Giovanni Paolo Il di farne la bussola per orientare la Chiesa nel prossimo secolo e quella di Benedetto XVI, che invita a un'interpretazione della riforma e del rinnovamento proposti dai testi conciliari.
Download or read book Primato e collegialit written by Leonardo Pelonara and published by Pontificia Univ. Gregoriana. This book was released on 2019 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Riferendosi al Concilio Vaticano II, Benedetto XVI aveva distinto due approcci ermeneutici, proponendo l'"ermeneutica della riforma nella continuità dell'unico soggetto-Chiesa" come la via per una corretta comprensione dei suoi documenti. Accogliendo tale indicazione, il presente lavoro affronta il rapporto tra il dogma del primato pontificio definito dal Vaticano I e la dottrina della collegialità episcopale dichiarata dal Vaticano II. Esso viene studiato a partire delle discussioni conciliari ma anche attraverso l'analisi del Magistero e della teologia tra i due Concili, offrendo inoltre uno studio a campione dei manuali di ecclesiologia elaborati dai docenti del Collegio Romano. L'opera si propone dunque nella duplice veste di un saggio di ermeneutica della riforma e di una sua verifica nell'ambito di una tematica teologica circoscritta.

If there is a single book that can shed light amid the postmodern darkness, this is it.

Download or read book Behold the Pierced One written by Joseph Ratzinger and published by Ignatius Press. This book was released on 2011-01-18 with total page 140 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this profound and illuminating work, Joseph Cardinal Ratzinger turns the gaze of an accomplished theologian upon the crucified Savior. This synthetic and meditative work is theological without being abstract or dry, and spiritual without being sentimental. The pierced heart of Christ must be the heart of theology and Christian life as well. Proceeding from the prayerful dialogue between the Incarnate Son and his Eternal Father, Joseph Ratzinger shows how one can approach the mystery of the Heart of Christ only through the imitation of this prayer. To know and understand Jesus we must participate in his prayer. The prayer of Christ must be the interior life of all who are joined to him in his Body, the Church. Using the Old and New Testaments and the Church Fathers, Ratzinger shows that the ecclesial community (the Church) was born from the pierced Heart of Christ on the Cross.
