Book excerpt: "Roman Catholicism in Spain" is a historical novel of anonymous authorship on the rise and subsequent spread of the Roman Catholic Church in the nation of Spain. Tracing its origin from the time of the Goths, the author opines that the violent nature of Gothic culture had a bearing on the faith as it developed in Spanish culture. He states, "The Goths had embraced the Christian religion with all the ardor and sincerity peculiar to a nation but recently delivered from a violent and savage state; for, although a generous race, they were ignorant and coarse in their habits. Their conversion to Christianity not only entirely modified their moral and religious notions, and introduced among them a greater elevation of feeling and an amplitude of ideas, but associated, intimately, the religious with the poetical sentiment, in such a manner that, in their eyes, every enemy of Christ was the enemy of the whole nation..."

Book Radicals in Exile

  • Author : Freddy Cristóbal Domínguez
  • Publisher : Penn State Press
  • Release : 2020-02-13
  • ISBN : 0271086750
  • Pages : 391 pages

Download or read book Radicals in Exile written by Freddy Cristóbal Domínguez and published by Penn State Press. This book was released on 2020-02-13 with total page 391 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Facing persecution in early modern England, some Catholics chose exile over conformity. Some even cast their lot with foreign monarchs rather than wait for their own rulers to have a change of heart. This book studies the relationship forged by English exiles and Philip II of Spain. It shows how these expatriates, known as the “Spanish Elizabethans,” used the most powerful tools at their disposal—paper, pens, and presses—to incite war against England during the “messianic” phase of Philip’s reign, from the years leading up to the Grand Armada until the king’s death in 1598. Freddy Cristóbal Domínguez looks at English Catholic propaganda within its international and transnational contexts. He examines a range of long-neglected polemical texts, demonstrating their prominence during an important moment of early modern politico-religious strife and exploring the transnational dynamic of early modern polemics and the flexible rhetorical approaches required by exile. He concludes that while these exiles may have lived on the margins, their books were central to early modern Spanish politics and are key to understanding the broader narrative of the Counter-Reformation. Deeply researched and highly original, Radicals in Exile makes an important contribution to the study of religious exile in early modern Europe. It will be welcomed by historians of early modern Iberian and English politics and religion as well as scholars of book history.

Book The Last Jew

    Book Details:
  • Author : Noah Gordon
  • Publisher : Macmillan
  • Release : 2001
  • ISBN : 0312978391
  • Pages : 388 pages

Download or read book The Last Jew written by Noah Gordon and published by Macmillan. This book was released on 2001 with total page 388 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the year 1492, the Inquisition has all of Spain in its grip. After centuries of pogrom-like riots encouraged by the Church, the Jews - who have been an important part of Spanish life since the days of the Romans - are expelled from the country by royal edict. Many who wish to remain are intimidated by Church and Crown and become Catholics, but several hundred thousand choose to retain their religion and depart; given little time to flee, some perish even before they can escape from Spain. Yonah Toledano, the 15-year-old son of a celebrated Spanish silversmith, has seen his father and brother die during these terrible days - victims whose murders go almost unnoticed in a time of mass upheaval. Trapped in Spain by circumstances, he is determined to honor the memory of his family by remaining a Jew. On a donkey named Moise, Yonah begins a meandering journey, a young fugitive zigzagging across the vastness of Spain. Toiling at manual labor, he desperately tries to cling to his memories of a vanished culture. As a lonely shepherd on a mountaintop he hurls snatches of almost forgotten Hebrew at the stars, as an apprentice armorer he learns to fight like a Christian knight. Finally, as a man living in a time and land where danger from the Inquisition is everywhere, he deals with the questions that mark his past. How he discovers the answers, how he finds his way to a singular and strong Marrano woman, how he achieves a life with the outer persona of a respected Old Christian physician and the inner life of a secret Jew, is the fabric of this novel. The Last Jew is a glimpse of the past, an authentic tale of high adventure, and a tender and unforgettable love story. In it, NoahGordon utilizes his greatest strengths, and the result is remarkable and moving.

Book Catholicism and Spanish Society Under the Reign of Philip II  1555 1598  and Philip III  1598 1621

Download or read book Catholicism and Spanish Society Under the Reign of Philip II 1555 1598 and Philip III 1598 1621 written by Anthony David Wright and published by Edwin Mellen Press. This book was released on 1991-01-01 with total page 276 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Catholic Spain is usually identified, even by professional historians, with the Counter Reformation, as far as the supposedly golden age of Philip II and Philip III is concerned. This study examines not the foreign policy of Habsburg Spain, in its naval and military campaigns against militant Islam and Protestant heresy, but the reality of Catholic practice in the Iberian peninsula itself. Certain features of Spanish religion, such as the insistence on orthodoxy combined with a persistent anti-clericalism, are traced to this crucial period in the development of Catholicism in Spain. NonInquisitorial as well as Inquisitorial evidence is drawn on and Roman archival sources are used in addition to documents from Spain itself. This work thus seeks to analyze Spanish Catholicism during the period of the Counter-Reformation not in a traditional way, as part of Spanish history in isolation; but as a distinct part of the Catholic Church as a whole, in the era of post-Tridentine reform, taking as reference-points recent work on that larger subject by scholars not only in Spain but in other countries also, such as France and Italy.
