Book Description
Es verdad que no hay que saber de teología sacramental o litúrgica para salvarse o ser buen cristiano. Sin embargo, una sólida formación litúrgica y sacramental nos ayuda tanto espiritual como humanamente. Pues se ama más y mejor a quién se conoce que a quién se desconoce. Ese amor informado nos prepara para cumplir con la misión principal de la Iglesia: evangelizar, comunicar ese gran regalo de la fe recibida de Dios en Cristo Jesús. El entendimiento de los sacramentos puede aportarte mucho: desde un entendimiento más profundo de cómo Jesucristo se te acerca a través de los sacramentos, hasta el descubrimiento de nuevos enfoques capaces de iluminar nuestras mentes y de fortalecer nuestros corazones ante los desafíos cotidianos. Although there is no need to know sacramental or liturgical theology in order to be a good Christian, a solid understanding of the sacraments helps us both spiritually and humanly. For the sacraments are loved more and deeper by whom they are known than not known. This informed love prepares us to fulfill the main mission of the Church: to evangelize--to communicate that great gift of faith received from God in Jesus Christ. Understanding the sacraments can bring us a lot: from a deeper understanding of how Jesus Christ comes to us through the sacraments, to the discovery that the sacraments can illuminate our hearts and strengthen them in the face of everyday challenges.

Book Description
Honorable Mention, Bandelier/Lavrin Book Award in Colonial Latin America, Rocky Mountain Council on Latin American Studies (RMCLAS), 2019 Honorable Mention, The Alfred B. Thomas Book Award, Southeastern Council of Latin American Studies (SECOLAS), 2019 Scholars have written reams on the conquest of Mexico, from the grand designs of kings, viceroys, conquistadors, and inquisitors to the myriad ways that indigenous peoples contested imperial authority. But the actual work of establishing the Spanish empire in Mexico fell to a host of local agents—magistrates, bureaucrats, parish priests, ranchers, miners, sugar producers, and many others—who knew little and cared less about the goals of their superiors in Mexico City and Madrid. Through a case study of the province of Michoacán in western Mexico, Promiscuous Power focuses on the prosaic agents of colonialism to offer a paradigm-shifting view of the complexities of making empire at the ground level. Presenting rowdy, raunchy, and violent life histories from the archives, Martin Austin Nesvig reveals that the local colonizers of Michoacán were primarily motivated by personal gain, emboldened by the lack of oversight from the upper echelons of power, and thoroughly committed to their own corporate memberships. His findings challenge some of the most deeply held views of the Spanish colonization of Mexico, including the Black Legend, which asserts that the royal state and the institutional church colluded to produce a powerful Catholicism that crushed heterodoxy, punished cultural difference, and ruined indigenous worlds. Instead, Nesvig finds that Michoacán—typical of many frontier provinces of the empire—became a region of refuge from imperial and juridical control and formal Catholicism, where the ordinary rules of law, jurisprudence, and royal oversight collapsed in the entropy of decentralized rule.

Book Description
Children meet the gentle Jesus while they learn about the Mass and their responses to the prayers. Meet the Gentle Jesus: The Mass for Children introduces the Mass in a way that will start children on a lifelong journey of knowing and loving Jesus. Barbara Yoffie--a primary grades classroom teacher, religious education coordinator, and popular children's books author--explains every prayer and ritual gesture of the Mass in age-appropriate language. Because children learn by asking questions and doing, Yoffie also provides introspective questions at every step of the Mass so children get involved. These questions help children carry out what they learned at Mass to their community, becoming missionary disciples. The charming, colorful illustrations by renowned artist Jeff Albrecht stimulate children and enable them to follow along during Mass. This engaging booklet is an essential tool for any primary grade child preparing for First Communion or learning about the Mass. It is a perfect supplement to Liguori's forthcoming Meet the Gentle Jesus First Eucharist sacrament preparation program. It also makes a great First Communion gift. Meet the Gentle Jesus: The Mass for Children has been reviewed and approved by the Office of Divine Worship at the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops (USCCB) and by the International Commission for English in the Liturgy (ICEL).

Book Description
In 1803 in the colonial South American city of La Plata, Doña Martina Vilvado y Balverde presented herself to church and crown officials to denounce her husband of more than four years, Don Antonio Yta, as a “woman in disguise.” Forced to submit to a medical inspection that revealed a woman’s body, Don Antonio confessed to having been María Yta, but continued to assert his maleness and claimed to have a functional “member” that appeared, he said, when necessary. Passing to América is at once a historical biography and an in-depth examination of the sex/gender complex in an era before “gender” had been divorced from “sex.” The book presents readers with the original court docket, including Don Antonio’s extended confession, in which he tells his life story, and the equally extraordinary biographical sketch offered by Felipa Ybañez of her “son María,” both in English translation and the original Spanish. Thomas A. Abercrombie’s analysis not only grapples with how to understand the sex/gender system within the Spanish Atlantic empire at the turn of the nineteenth century but also explores what Antonio/María and contemporaries can teach us about the complexities of the relationship between sex and gender today. Passing to América brings to light a previously obscure case of gender transgression and puts Don Antonio’s life into its social and historical context in order to explore the meaning of “trans” identity in Spain and its American colonies. This accessible and intriguing study provides new insight into historical and contemporary gender construction that will interest students and scholars of gender studies and colonial Spanish literature and history.
