Download or read book The Pope s Body written by Agostino Paravicini-Bagliani and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2000-07 with total page 448 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In contrast to the role traditionally fulfilled by secular rulers, the pope has been perceived as an individual person existing in a body subject to decay and death, yet at the same time a corporeal representation of Christ and the Church, eternity and salvation. Using an array of evidence from the eleventh through the fifteenth centuries, Agostino Paravicini- Bagliani addresses this paradox. He studies the rituals, metaphors, and images of the pope's body as they developed over time and shows how they resulted in the expectation that the pope's body be simultaneously physical and metaphorical. Also included is a particular emphasis on the thirteenth century when, during the pontificate of Boniface VIII (1294-1303), the papal court became the focus of medicine and the natural sciences as physicians devised ways to protect the pope's health and prolong his life. Masterfully translated from the Italian, this engaging history of the pope's body provides a new perspective for readers to understand the papacy, both historically and in our own time.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: En 1997, Jean-Paul II nommait Thérèse de Lisieux Docteur de l’Église, affirmant ainsi que celle que l’on a appelée « la plus grande sainte des temps modernes » était aussi une véritable maîtresse de vie spirituelle. Elle le montre particulièrement dans ses lettres où elle guide, soutient, conseille, réconforte ses destinataires, et, à travers eux, ses lecteurs d’aujourd’hui. Car la correspondance de Thérèse n’est pas lettre morte, figée dans une époque et réservée à des destinataires du passé ; elle est un message de confiance et d’amour adressé à tous ceux qui veulent suivre Thérèse dans sa « petite voie ». À PROPOS DE L'AUTEURE Thérèse de Lisieux est une jeune religieuse morte à 24 ans dans le secret d’un carmel normand. Son rayonnement atteint aujourd’hui les extrémités de la terre.

Download or read book Letters of St Therese of Lisieux Volume I written by St. Therese of Lisieux and published by ICS Publications. This book was released on 2014-07-07 with total page 431 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Letter writing at the end of the nineteenth century was an important activity for the people of France. Those who received letters from family and friends alike usually kept the hand-written texts sent to them as precious gifts. That is why this collection of letters by and to one of the greatest saints of modern times is so interesting to us today. No mere notes slapped together in distracted haste, the missives found in this volume reveal communications of warm personal sentiment along with expressions of lively spiritual development. Thérèse's efforts as a fifteen-year-old to enter Carmel before reaching the required age appear in revealing detail. This "tortuous course of a very subtle diplomacy" is set out not only by the letters of Thérèse herself, but also by those of so many others who shared her hopes and eventual victory. The translator-editor gives us 75 pages of introductory remarks to Thérèse's letters. This volume also includes 4 pages of facsimiles of Thérèse's letters.
