  • Pages : 260 pages

Download or read book The Rosary Cantoral written by Lorenzo F. Candelaria and published by University Rochester Press. This book was released on 2008 with total page 260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The Rosary Cantoral: Ritual and Social Design in a Chantbook from Early Renaissance Toledo presents a model for realizing the fuller significance of illuminated music manuscripts as cultural artifacts, and offers unprecedented insights into the social and devotional life of Toledo, Spain, around the turn of the sixteenth century. After solving the mystery of the Rosary Cantoral's origins, subsequent essays probe the meaning and cultural significance of the manuscript's iconography (including a border decoration after Albrecht Durer), its rare Spanish chants for the Mass, and two striking musical works for multiple voices (one by Josquin Desprez and another on "L'homme arme"). Ultimately, this book focuses on the extraordinary circumstances that engendered the compilation of the Rosary Cantoral around 1500: a system of patronage between a brotherhood of suspected heretics and a religious house that was a key supporter of the Inquisition in Toledo."--BOOK JACKET.

  • Author : Katherine Weikert
  • Publisher : Berghahn Books
  • Release : 2021-11-01
  • ISBN : 1800731566
  • Pages : 146 pages

Download or read book Medieval Intersections written by Katherine Weikert and published by Berghahn Books. This book was released on 2021-11-01 with total page 146 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Status and gender are two closely associated concepts within medieval society, which tended to view both notions as binary: elite or low status, married or single, holy or cursed, male or female, or as complementary and cohesive as multiple parts of a societal whole. With contributions on topics ranging from medieval leprosy to boyhood behaviors, this interdisciplinary collection highlights the various ways “status” can be interpreted relative to gender, and what these two interlocked concepts can reveal about the construction of gendered identities in the Middle Ages.

Book Inquisition

  • Author : Toby Green
  • Publisher : Macmillan
  • Release : 2009-03-17
  • ISBN : 9780312537241
  • Pages : 510 pages

Download or read book Inquisition written by Toby Green and published by Macmillan. This book was released on 2009-03-17 with total page 510 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A journey across centuries of religious conflict Toby Green’s incredible new book brings a vast panorama to life by focusing on the untold stories of individuals from all walks of life and every section of society who were affected by the Inquisition. From witches in Mexico, bigamists in Brazil, Freemasons, Hindus, Jews, Moslems and Protestants, the Inquisition reached every aspect of society. This history, though filled with stories of terror and the unspeakable ways in which human beings can treat one another, is ultimately one of hope, underscoring the resilience of the human spirit. Stretching from the unification of Spain under Ferdinand and Isabella in the fifteenth century to the Napoleanic wars, The Inquisition details this incredible history in all its richness and complexity.

Book Cultural Encounters

    Book Details:
  • Author : Mary Elizabeth Perry
  • Publisher : Univ of California Press
  • Release : 2024-07-26
  • ISBN : 0520414284
  • Pages : 308 pages

Download or read book Cultural Encounters written by Mary Elizabeth Perry and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 2024-07-26 with total page 308 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: More than just an expression of religious authority or an instrument of social control, the Inquisition was an arena where cultures met and clashed on both shores of the Atlantic. This pioneering volume examines how cultural identities were maintained despite oppression. Persecuted groups were able to survive the Inquisition by means of diverse strategies—whether Christianized Jews in Spain preserving their experiences in literature, or native American folk healers practicing medical care. These investigations of social resistance and cultural persistence will reinforce the cultural significance of the Inquisition. Contributors: Jaime Contreras, Anne J. Cruz, Jesús M.

Book Queens  Princesses and Mendicants

Download or read book Queens Princesses and Mendicants written by Nikolas Jaspert and published by LIT Verlag Münster. This book was released on 2019-03-11 with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The decades between ca 1280 and ca 1380 were marked by a striking affinity to the Mendicant orders on the part of many female members of royal and princely courts. And yet, "Queens, Princesses and Mendicants" is both an innovative and comparatively neglected juxtaposition in medieval studies, for historical research has generally tended to neglect the relationship between Mendicants and aristocratic women. This volume unites twelve articles written by experts from seven European countries. The contributions cover a wide array of medieval European kingdoms in order to facilitate direct comparisons. Was affinity towards the Mendicants a prevalent phenomenon in the late Middle Ages? Can one even term "philomendicantism" a late medieval European movement? The collection of essays provides answers to these and other questions within the field of gender, religious and cultural history.

Book Women   s Networks of Spiritual Promotion in the Peninsular Kingdoms  13th 16th Centuries

Download or read book Women s Networks of Spiritual Promotion in the Peninsular Kingdoms 13th 16th Centuries written by AA. VV. and published by Viella Libreria Editrice. This book was released on 2013-09-11T00:00:00+02:00 with total page 293 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The starting point for this research is the ascertainment of a major change in the spirituality paradigm of the last centuries of the European Middle Ages, which, since the 13th century, results in a new and final interpretation, focused on pauperistic, evangelical and apostolic ideals, of the religious phenomenon. This symbolic revolution, which completely changed parameters and involved both men and women, entailed an intense urbanisation and feminisation of spirituality. Within that general framework, the pages of this book attempt at investigating the penetration, evolution and changes of the new forms of female monastic and religious life in a delimited space and time: the kingdoms of the Iberian Peninsula during the period from the 13th to the 16th century, trying to establish the connection between those new spaces of female spirituality and the strategies, wishes and potentialities of the women who promoted their creation, strengthening or reform.
