Download or read book El nuevo pueblo de Dios written by Joseph Ratzinger and published by . This book was released on 1972-01 with total page 470 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La presente obra del joven Joseph Ratzinger, hoy Benedicto XVI, exhaustivo tratado de eclesiología, se abre con un importante estudio sobre su historia, donde se establecen, los fundamentos de la pertenencia a la iglesia y se bosqueja la doctrina del primado. En la sección destinada a estudiar la Iglesia y sus oficios, se empieza viéndola en sus orígenes, remontándose para ello a la institución divina y examinándola luego a la luz de la teología paulina, como signo y misterio de fe. Se estudia más a fondo el problema de la pertenencia a la Iglesia, tomando como base los documentos del Magisterio, hasta llegar al concilio Vaticano II con su valiosa aportación a este respecto. Bajo nueva luz, Ratzinger, ahonda en los conceptos de primado y episcopado, y hace hincapié en la doctrina conciliar sobre la colegialidad de los obispos e implicaciones de esta doctrina. El destacado teólogo, entonces catedrático de Dogmática en la universidad de Ratisbona, establece las bases de una verdadera reforma en la Iglesia, comenzando por aquello que es esencial a toda auténtica reforma: la renovación interna del reformador, en este caso de cualquier cristiano. En suma, el libro aborda, con plena responsabilidad cristiana, las doctrinas que más impacto han causado sobre la estructura de la Iglesia y sus más urgentes adaptaciones.

Download or read book Byzantine Rome and the Greek Popes written by Andrew J. Ekonomou and published by Lexington Books. This book was released on 2007-01-26 with total page 360 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Byzantine Rome and the Greek Popes examines the scope and extent to which the East influenced Rome and the Papacy following the Justinian Reconquest of Italy in the middle of the sixth century through the pontificate of Zacharias and the collapse of the exarchate of Ravenna in 752. A combination of factors resulted in the arrival of significant numbers of easterners in Rome, and those immigrants had brought with them a number of eastern customs and practices previously unknown in the city. Greek influence became apparent in art, religious ceremonial and liturgics, sacred music, the rhetoric of doctrinal debate, the growth of eastern monastic communities, and charitable institutions, and the proliferation of the cults of eastern saints and ecclesiastical feast days and, in particular, devotion to the Theotokos or Mother of God. From the late seventh to the middle of the eighth century, eleven of the thirteen Roman pontiffs were the sons of families of eastern provenance. While conceding that over the course of the seventh century Rome indeed experienced the impact of an important Greek element, some scholars of the period have insisted that the degree to which Rome and the Papacy were 'orientalized' has been exaggerated, while others argue that the extent of their 'byzantinization' has not been fully appreciated. The question has also been raised as to whether Rome's oriental popes were responsible for sowing the seeds of separatism from Byzantium and laying the foundation for a future papal state, or whether they were loyal imperial subjects ever steadfast politically, although not always so in matters of the faith, to the reigning sovereign in Constantinople. Finally, there is the important issue of whether one could still speak of a single and undivided imperium Roman christianum in the seventh and early eighth centuries or whether the concept of imperial unity in the epoch following Gregory the Great was a quaint and fanciful fiction as East and West, ignoring and misunderstanding one another, began to go their separate ways. Byzantine Rome and the Greek Popes provides a guide through this complicated and often contradictory history.
Download or read book The Republic of St Peter written by Thomas F. X. Noble and published by University of Pennsylvania Press. This book was released on 2010-08-03 with total page 411 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Republic of St. Peter seeks to reclaim for central Italy an important part of its own history. Noble's thesis is at once original and controversial: that the Republic, an independent political entity, was in existence by the 730s and was not a creation of the Franks in the 750s. Noble examines the political, economic, and religious problems that impelled the central Italians—and a succession of resolute popes—to seek emancipation from the Byzantine Empire. He delineates the social structures and historical traditions that produced a distinctive political society, describes the complete governmental apparatus of the Republic, and provides a comprehensive assessment of the Franco-papal alliance.

Book excerpt: Since 1600, whenever a Pope dies, the Cardinals of the Roman Catholic Church convene in Rome to elect a successor. The Papal Conclave is an event like no other. Highly secret and conducted behind the locked doors of the Sistine Chapel, it happens about eight times every century. It is an event that has evolved over the centuries and is always filled with high drama: cardinals meeting en masse in their scarlet robes, throngs of the faithful standing watch in St. Peter's Square, the black or white smoke billowing from the chimney signalling the election of a new Pontiff Since secrecy was not heavily invoked until the twentieth century, there is a vast store of rich material to work from and Fred Baumgartner uses it to its utmost detailing the bickering and blatant politicking that goes on behind the locked doors of the Sistine Chapel in this important and timely book.

Download or read book Mi cristiandad written by Papa Benedicto XVI and published by . This book was released on 2012-02 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: El 24 de abril de 2005, el cardenal Joseph Alois Ratzinger se convirtió en el Papa Benedicto XVI, el sucesor del siglo XXI del apóstol Pedro y el dirigente espiritual de más de mil millones de católicos. ¿Quién es este hombre complejo cuyo cargo le convierte en líder único de la religión con más seguidores del mundo? ¿Cómo influirá en nuestro futuro? En estos textos que aquí se recogen se podrán encontrar las respuestas a estas preguntas porque en sus discursos no deja ningún tema sin tratar pero, sobre todo, habla de la situación algo crítica en la que se encuentra la Iglesia católica hoy día. Con la lectura de estos discursos descubriremos gran parte del pensamiento del que hoy es nuestro Papa y sus opiniones sobre cuestiones muy actuales, como el abandono de los valores tradicionales y religiosos, las nuevas costumbres sociales, el concepto y el carácter sagrado de la vida, los desafíos con los que se enfrenta el sacerdocio, y las relaciones de la Iglesia católica con otras religiones mundiales. Cuando era cardenal, Ratzinger defendió con entusiasmo la doctrina de la Iglesia y se ganó la fama de guardián heroico de la fe para los conservadores, mientras recelaban de él los elementos más liberales de la Iglesia. Aún es pronto para saber qué es lo que definirá el papado de Benedicto XVI, pero siempre será visto como una de las voces teológicas más importantes de nuestro tiempo. Y este volumen quedará como una de las mejores fuentes para entender el corazón, el alma y el pensamiento de este singular sucesor de san Pedro.
