Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Es difícil señalar con exactitud cuándo comenzó el culto de Martín de Porres (1579-1639), pero para el momento de su exhumación en 1664, en el convento dominico de Nuestra Señora del Rosario, muchos residentes de Lima ya consideraban al piadoso sirviente del convento un santo local. Una orden papal de varias décadas atrás prohibía a los limeños no solo erigir un altar donde sus seguidores pudieran recordarlo y rezarle, sino también colocar su imagen o hasta una vela en el sitio donde estaba enterrado. A pesar de ello, la fama de Martín se había extendido rápidamente. Su popularidad había persuadido a los dominicos de llevar sus restos a la capilla recién construida en su celda en la enfermería del convento, debajo de un altar dedicado al ícono central de la cristiandad, particularmente apreciado por fray Martín: la Santa Cruz. El estudio de Celia Cussen se prolonga más allá de la muerte de fray Martín de Porres para reconstruir su vida póstuma. Se extiende hasta mediados del siglo XVIII, cuando el Vaticano lo reconoció como un héroe de virtud y lo designó un venerable de la Iglesia. Continúa hasta su beatificación en 1837 y su canonización en 1962. Por definición, una biografía es la historia de la vida de una persona hasta el momento de su muerte. Con Martín, la autora ha elegido desviarse de la norma para trabajar con un marco temporal que se extienda más allá de su vida natural. Pues no fue sino hasta los años posteriores a la muerte de fray Martín, que la comunidad de devotos elaboró y expresó su comprensión de lo que significaba para ellos su vida y su intercesión desde el cielo.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In May 1962, as the struggle for civil rights heated up in the United States and leaders of the Catholic Church prepared to meet for Vatican Council II, Pope John XXIII named the first black saint of the Americas, the Peruvian Martín de Porres (1579–1639), and designated him the patron of racial justice. The son of a Spanish father and a former slavewoman from Panamá, Martín served a lifetime as the barber and nurse at the great Dominican monastery in Lima. This book draws on visual representations of Martín and the testimony of his contemporaries to produce the first biography of this pious and industrious black man from the cosmopolitan capital of the Viceroyalty of Peru. The book vividly chronicles the evolving interpretations of his legend and his miracles, and traces the centuries-long campaign to formally proclaim Martín de Porres a hero of universal Catholicism.

Born in Peru in 1579, he died at age sixty. His life combined the apostolic zeal of Saint Dominic, the simple love for creation of Saint Francis and the endless compassion for the poor and sick of Blessed Teresa of Calcutta. In 1962, he became one of the few saints canonized by Pope John XXIII. Saint Martin did not write any books or preach any sermons. His life was his preaching. He initiated a new expression of the spiritual life: radical, simple and holy. He had the gift of spontaneous joy and a capacity for turning the suffering and oppression of the poor into an encounter with God. For that he is known today as the patron saint of social justice. The author is well imbued with the spirit of Martin de Porres as a fellow Dominican and as a student who lived in the area where Martin grew up and ministered in Peru. As he states in the Introduction to this book, “I have spent many hours snooping around and praying in many of Martin’s secret hideouts!” Each chapter concludes with pertinent reflection questions that can be used for group discussion or personal reflection. Come explore the life and spirituality of this poor friar from South America who now lives in the splendor of God’s kingdom. Anyone with a compassionate heart toward those oppressed by society will come to love and hold him in esteem.

This book was released on 2024-08-06 with total page 401 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Dominicans in the Americas and the Philippines (c. 1500–c. 1820) is part of a renewal of interest in the global history of the Dominican Order. Many of the essays were carefully selected among some of the papers presented at the III International Conference on the History of the Order of Preachers in the Americas, a gathering that stands in continuity with the conferences of Mexico (2013) and Bogotá (2016). This book, the contributors of which are active researchers specializing in the history of the Order of Preachers in Latin America, is organized in four parts: Women and the Order of Preachers; “Benditos Bienes”: Libraries and Material Patrimony; Missions, Devotional, and Daily Life; and The Order of Preachers and Their Writings. Contributions deal with different subfields including art history, gender studies, history of the book, and intellectual history more broadly. Additionally, it contains a chapter examining the historiography of the Order of Preachers in Latin America. Covering the time range from 1510 to the early nineteenth century, the book fills a gap in the historiography of the Order of Preachers in the Americas, especially in English-language scholarly literature. Students of Latin American history, the history of Christianity, and the history of global Catholicism will surely find the volume to be of great interest.

Book excerpt: Martin de Porres is a saint whose popularity has remained undiminished despite his obscure history as a seventeenth century Dominican in South America. His humility and love, in the face of racism and prejudice make him a model for our own time of conflict. In 1962 he became the first South American black saint and patron of interracial brotherhood. It was however, his care for the poor, the suffering and even sick animals that made him famous in his own lifetime. He performed many miraculous cures in his lifetime and to this day is prayed to with great effect for help in a variety of spheres.
