Download or read book The Canonical Path of Opus Dei written by Amadeo de Fuenmayor and published by . This book was released on 1994 with total page 670 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This book tells the complete history of how the Prelature of Opus Dei developed within the legal structure of the Catholic Church. What makes this history compelling is that the unique characteristics of Opus Dei's spirit did not fit into any existing framework in Church law when Opus Dei was founded in 1928 by Msgr. Josemaria Escriva, who was beatified by Pope John Paul II in 1992, nearly 17 years after his death. Msgr. Escriva sought to create a framework which harmonized the spirit of Opus Dei with the legal norms of the Church. The authors show how that quest was carried out over 54 years, from its earliest years in Madrid, approvals in various dioceses and by the Holy See, and culminating in the creation of Opus Dei as a personal prelature." /

Download or read book A New World of Gold and Silver written by John J. TePaske and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2010-10-15 with total page 364 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Colonial Latin America was famed for the precious metals plundered by the conquistadores and the gold and silver extracted from its mines. Historians and economists have attempted to determine the amount of bullion produced and its impact on the colonies themselves and the emerging early-modern world economy. Using official tax and mintage records, this book provides decade-by-decade and often annual data on the amount of gold and silver officially refined and coined in the treasury and mint districts of Spanish and Portuguese America. It also places American bullion output within the context of global production and addresses the issue of contraband production and bullion smuggling. The book is thus an invaluable source for evaluating the rise of the early-modern economy.
Download or read book Itinerario Jur dico del Opus Dei written by Amadeo de Fuemayor and published by Ediciones Universidad de Navarra. This book was released on 2013-11-07 with total page 1490 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: El objeto específico de este trabajo es el itinerario jurídico seguido por el Opus Dei hasta llegar a su configuración canónica definitiva, haremos también referencia a su espíritu y al desarrollo de su apostolado y, por tanto, a su historia en general, pues, en su defecto, su iter jurídico –como el de cualquier institución espiritual y apostólica– no resultaría plenamente inteligible. Reiteremos, sin embargo, que ni una ni otra realidad –es decir, ni el espíritu del Opus Dei, ni el desarrollo de su labor apostólica– serán objeto de examen directo: se hará referencia a esos aspectos sólo en la medida imprescindible para explicar las cuestiones sobre las que versa de forma inmediata nuestra investigación.
Download or read book New Worlds written by John Lynch and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 2012-06-26 with total page 582 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This extraordinary book encompasses the time period from the first Christian evangelists' arrival in Latin America to the dictators of the late twentieth century. With unsurpassed knowledge of Latin American history, John Lynch sets out to explore the reception of Christianity by native peoples and how it influenced their social and religious lives as the centuries passed. As attentive to modern times as to the colonial period, Lynch also explores the extent to which Indian religion and ancestral ways survived within the new Christian culture.The book follows the development of religious culture over time by focusing on peak periods of change: the response of religion to the Enlightenment, the emergence of the Church from the wars of independence, the Romanization of Latin American religion as the papacy overtook the Spanish crown in effective control of the Church, the growing challenge of liberalism and the secular state, and in the twentieth century, military dictators' assaults on human rights. Throughout the narrative, Lynch develops a number of special themes and topics. Among these are the Spanish struggle for justice for Indians, the Church's position on slavery, the concept of popular religion as distinct from official religion, and the development of liberation theology.
Download or read book Colour of Paradise written by Kris E. Lane and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 2010-03-30 with total page 299 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Among the magnificent gems and jewels left behind by the great Islamic empires, emeralds stand out for their size and prominence. For the Mughals, Ottomans, and Safavids green was—as it remains for all Muslims—the color of Paradise, reserved for the Prophet Muhammad and his descendants. Tapping a wide range of sources, Kris Lane traces the complex web of global trading networks that funneled emeralds from backland South America to populous Asian capitals between the sixteenth and the eighteenth centuries. Lane reveals the bloody conquest wars and forced labor regimes that accompanied their production. It is a story of trade, but also of transformations—how members of profoundly different societies at opposite ends of the globe assigned value to a few thousand pounds of imperfectly shiny green rocks.
