Book Description
Since its original appearance in 1949, Irving A. Leonard's pioneering Books of the Brave has endured as the classic account of the introduction of literary culture to the Spanish New World. Leonard's study documents the works of fiction that accompanied and followed the conquistadores to the Americas and argues that popular texts influenced these men and shaped the way they thought and wrote about their experiences. UC Press's 1992 edition combines Leonard's text with a selection of the documents that were his most valuable sources—nine lists of books destined for the Indies. Containing a wealth of information, these lists provide the documentary evidence for what is perhaps Leonard's greatest contribution: his demonstration that royal and inquisitorial prohibitions failed to control the circulation of books and ideas in colonial Spanish America. Rolena Adorno's introduction reaffirms the lasting value of Books of the Brave and chronicles developments in cultural-historical studies that have shed light on the role of books in Spanish American colonial culture. Adorno situates Leonard's work at the threshold between older, triumphalist views of Spanish conquest history and more recent perspectives engendered by studies of native American peoples. With its rich descriptions of the book trade in both Spain and America, Books of the Brave has much to offer historians as well as literary critics. Indeed, it is a highly readable and engaging book for anyone interested in the cultural life of the New World. This title is part of UC Press's Voices Revived program, which commemorates University of California Press’s mission to seek out and cultivate the brightest minds and give them voice, reach, and impact. Drawing on a backlist dating to 1893, Voices Revived makes high-quality, peer-reviewed scholarship accessible once again using print-on-demand technology. This title was originally published in 1992.

Book Description
The aim of this collection of essays is to bring together new comparative research studies on the place and role of the Bible in early modern Europe. It focuses on lay readings of the Bible, interrogating established historical, social, and confessional paradigms. It highlights the ongoing process of negotiation between the faithful congregation and ecclesiastical institutions, in both Protestant and Catholic countries. It shows how, even in the latter, where biblical translations were eventually forbidden, the laity drew upon the Bible as a source of ethical, cultural, and spiritual inspiration, contributing to the evolution of central aspects of modernity. Interpreting the Bible could indeed be a means of feeding critical perspectives and independent thought and behavior. Contributors: Erminia Ardissino, Xavier Bisaro, Élise Boillet, Gordon Campbell, Jean-Pierre Cavaillé, Sabrina Corbellini, François Dupuigrenet Desroussilles, Max Engammare, Wim François, Ignacio J. García Pinilla, Stefano Gattei, Margriet Hoogvliet, Tadhg Ó hAnnracháin, and Concetta Pennuto.

Book Description
En la presente obra te ofrecemos los capítulos dedicados a los Cuatro Evangelios: Mateo, Marcos, Lucas y Juan en el Nuevo Testamento y las profecías bíblicas encerradas en ellos. Si el lector analiza los Evangelios Cristianos desde el punto de vista bíblico y no solo doctrinal, notará que el ministerio de Jesús fue mayoritariamente profético y es algo inexplicable que ello no sea tratado como tal merecidamente en las iglesias y congregaciones establecidas. El Hijo de Dios constantemente nos remontó al futuro en Su Venida rodeado de ángeles, las señales de los tiempos y el cielo, la importancia de Jerusalém en su reino, el fuego eterno, las bodas, la siega del final, la puerta estrecha; en fin, profetizando sobre lo que se acercaba para nuestra época actual, que seríamos quienes presenciaríamos todo al unísono, en una sola generación; y con frecuencia trayéndonos citas de los profetas mayores y menores, mencionando alguno de ellos por su nombre, como por ejemplo Daniel, Moisés y Elías. Como libro de estudio Los Cuatro Evangelios Proféticos se diferencia de otros en que no es simplemente para saciar la curiosidad sobre el futuro, o entretenernos como lo hace un filme de ciencia ficción. Es más que nada lo que el Espíritu Santo de Dios nos ha revelado fruto del estudio esforzado de todas las profecías bíblicas que señalan indudablemente hacia la implantación con bases solidas y eternas del Reino de Dios. Es por tanto un libro dirigido a aquellos interesados en escudriñar-como se nos dice en San Juan 5:39-las profecías bíblicas, incluidas dentro del Plan de Dios, dedicándole tiempo, paciencia y mucha oración.Este libro es precedido por otros titulados:-Profecías en el Pentateuco.-Profetas Mayores del Antiguo Testamento.-Profetas Menores del Antiguo Testamento.-Apocalipsis de San Juan. Interpretación y Explicación del libro.(Todos en conjunto conformaban la obra mayor '¡Tierra, tierra, tierra! Oye Palabra de Yahweh')Deseamos de todo corazón que las Escrituras proféticas te acerquen más al Creador hallando la Salvación y puerta de entrada a la eternidad a través de nuestro Redentor. Esperamos que te sea de ayuda para seguir velando y estar preparados para los ciertos y duros acontecimientos que se le avecinan a la humanidad en nuestros días.Índice:-Notas del autor.-Reflexión Intertestamentaria.-Evangelio de San Mateo.-Evangelio de San Marcos.-Evangelio de San Lucas.-Evangelio de San Juan.-Resumen Post-Evangelios.
