Book excerpt: Praying--with the Saints--to God Our Mother celebrates the feminine characteristics of God by uncovering a treasury of texts that have been overlooked for centuries. Over 150 scriptural passages, both from the original biblical languages and other ancient translations, radiate the warmth and vitality of the maternal face of God. Additionally, passages from five Ecumenical Councils, all thirty-three Doctors of the Church, another thirty-six Fathers, and a total of seventy-one saints from every century reveal a vast richness of feminine images of God. Stramara's in-depth scholarship, presented in a format of prayer and meditation, makes this book inviting for all readers. Praying-with the Saints-to God Our Mother will be the standard reference for Christians of any tradition for years to come.

Download or read book Writing Teresa written by Denise DuPont and published by Bucknell University Press. This book was released on 2011-12-16 with total page 307 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Writing Teresa: The Saint from Ávila at the fin-de-siglo examines the Teresa de Jesús “boom” of roughly 1880–1930, and offers an in-depth study of five major Spanish participants in the turn-of-the-twentieth-century explosion of literary treatments of St. Teresa. This historical period’s interest in the Saint from Ávila relates to popularization and nationalization of aspects of Catholicism, technological advances, a modernist fascination with saintly heroes, the search for new Spanish identities, and the evolving role of women writers and intellectuals. Teresa was mysticism in its historical context, energy in a time of doubt, the possibility of reconciling science and spirituality, a new vision for writing, and a maternal figure linked to the religion of the past for those who had lost the faith of their childhood.

Download or read book Autobiographical Writing by Early Modern Hispanic Women written by Elizabeth Teresa Howe and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-04-08 with total page 321 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Women’s life writing in general has too often been ignored, dismissed, or relegated to a separate category in those few studies of the genre that include it. The present work addresses these issues and offers a countervailing argument that focuses on the contributions of women writers to the study of autobiography in Spanish during the early modern period. There are, indeed, examples of autobiographical writing by women in Spain and its New World empire, evident as early as the fourteenth-century Memorias penned by Doña Leonor López de Cordóba and continuing through the seventeenth-century Cartas of Sor Juana Inés de la Cruz. What sets these accounts apart, the author shows, are the variety of forms adopted by each woman to tell her life and the circumstances in which she adapts her narrative to satisfy the presence of male critics-whether ecclesiastic or political, actual or imagined-who would dismiss or even alter her life story. Analyzing how each of these women viewed her life and, conversely, how their contemporaries-both male and female-received and sometimes edited her account, Howe reveals the tension in the texts between telling a ’life’ and telling a ’lie’.

Download or read book The Atlantic in Global History written by Jorge Canizares-Esguerra and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-09-05 with total page 303 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Atlantic in Global History is a collection of original essays by leading authors that both introduce the main themes of Atlantic history and expand the category of the Atlantic chronologically, spatially, and methodologically. Moving away from the nation-state focused model of Atlantic history, this book emphasizes the comparisons among national experiences of the Atlantic. Meanwhile, by extending beyond the early modern period and into the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, it presents the continued analytical value of the Atlantic paradigm. Each chapter explores the events that formed the nations and cultures of the Atlantic region and examines the Atlantic’s relationship with non-Atlantic communities. This second edition is updated with a new introduction, which includes a section dedicated to developments in the field since the publication of the previous edition, and a new guide for instructors, with suggestions for classroom use. The volume’s broad global and chronological coverage makes it an ideal book for students and lecturers of Atlantic History.

Book excerpt: Santa Teresa de Jes�s o de �vila (Espa�a 1515-1582), monja fundadora de la Orden de las Carmelitas Descalzas es considerada una de las grandes m�sticas de su tiempo, escribi� con gran espontaneidad su experiencia personal en sus escritos, cartas, poes�as. Por cuatro razones las personas espirituales suelen escribir los buenos conceptos, pensamientos, deseos, visiones, revelaciones y otras gracias interiores que Dios les comunica en la oraci�n. La primera, porque cantan eternamente las misericordias del Se�or, dej�ndolas escritas, para que se lean en el futuro, a fin de que el Se�or sea m�s glorificado y ensalzado. La segunda, para refrescarles en su memoria aquellas gracias, la tercera porque la caridad les fuerza a sacar la luz y talentos que les ha sido otorgados por Dios a trav�s de la oraci�n para otros, y finalmente, por obediencia a sus confesores, aunque su humildad querr�a callarlos. Esto �ltimo acaeci� a Santa Teresa que por obediencia a sus confesores quiso "cantar eternamente las misericordias del Se�or", y para provecho de su alma y de las sus hijas espirituales, ha escrito libros de lo que ha recibido en su esp�ritu. Entre estos libros est� "Conceptos del Amor de Dios", que comprende conceptos divinos y pensamientos del amor de Dios y de la oraci�n y otras virtudes heroicas, en que se declaraban muchas palabras de los Cantares de Salom�n. Posee doctrina importante, y no es una declaraci�n sobre los Cantares, sino conceptos de esp�ritu, que Dios le daba, encerrados en algunas palabras de los Cantares.
