Christ, Mary, and the Saints
Author:
Publisher: BRILL
ISBN: 9004380124
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 366
Book Description
The last decade has witnessed a striking upsurge of interest in Iberian hagiography. In painting and the fine arts through to poetic and narrative treatments composed in Castilian and Catalan, the legacies of Christ, Mary, and the saints have been approached from a range of perspectives and subjected to detailed critical scrutiny. This book, which focuses specifically on the application of theoretical and methodological approaches to analysis, asks what scholars of early Iberian hagiography can bring to the analysis of the sacred past and how the study of the discipline can be taken forward innovatively in the future. Its fourteen essays, each focusing on a different aspect of composition, seek in particular to explore interdisciplinary methodologies and the ways in which they intersect with broader discourses in other branches of research. Contributors are Carme Arronis Llopis, Fernando Baños Vallejo, Andrew M. Beresford, Sarah Jane Boss, Sarah V. Buxton, Marinela Garcia Sempere, Ryan D. Giles, Ariel Guiance, Lluís Ramon i Ferrer, Rebeca Sanmartín Bastida, Connie L. Scarborough, and Lesley K. Twomey.

Libro de Margery Kempe
Author: Margery Kempe
Publisher: Universitat de València
ISBN: 8437089395
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 289
Book Description
El «Libro de Margery Kempe» constitueix la primera autobiografia escrita en llengua anglesa i, així mateix, es conta entre els exemples més notables de la literatura mística anglosaxona medieval. Concebut amb una finalitat eminentment didàctica, és l'única font per a reconstruir la controvertida vida d'una figura insòlita, d'una dama burgesa, muller, mare, dona de negocis, pelegrina i visionària. Aquestes memòries, dictades per ella mateixa al final de la seua vida, tracen un extraordinari retrat d'una dona de caràcter indoblegable, immersa en una experiència mística que la va portar a enfrontar-se a la religiositat dominant i a les jerarquies eclesiàstiques, sempre en el tall de l'acusació d?heretgia. El llibre constitueix un ampli i bigarrat retaule de la societat i la vida quotidiana en una època de grans transformacions com van ser els segles XIV i XV.

THE HOURS OF THE PASSION OF OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST
Author: LUISA PICCARRETA
Publisher: Fivestar
ISBN:
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 116
Book Description
In 1914, Luisa writes in a letter to the now Saint, Annibale M. di Francia: “I am finally sending you this handwritten copy of The Hours of the Passion of Our Lord Jesus Christ. May it all be for His greater Glory. I have also enclosed a few pages where I describe the effects and the beautiful promises that Jesus makes to everyone who meditates these Hours of the Passion. I believe that if whoever meditates on them is a sinner, he will convert; if he is imperfect, he will become perfect; if he is holy, he will become holier; if he is tempted, he will find victory; if suffering, he will find strength, medicine, and comfort in these Hours; if weak and poor, he will find a spiritual food and a mirror in which to look at himself continually and so become beautiful and similar to Jesus, our model”.

The Cristos yacentes of Gregorio Fern?ez
Author: Ilenia Col?n Mendoza
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1351545299
Category : Art
Languages : en
Pages : 221
Book Description
Analyzing seventeenth-century images of the dead Christ produced by Gregorio Fern?ez, author Ilenia Col?endoza investigates how and why the artist and his patrons manipulated these images in connection with the religious literature of the time to produce striking images that moved the faithful to devotion. In so doing, she contributes new findings to the topic of Spanish sacred sculpture. The author re-examines these sculptures not only in the context of a larger sculptural group but also as independent sculptures that were intended as powerful aids to contemplation and devotion as was prescribed by the writings of San Juan de la Cruz and Luis de Granada. Combining study of the sculptural works with that of liturgical sources, she reveals the connection between the written word and the sculpted work of art. Through this interdisciplinary approach, the author links Fern?ez's sculptural program with the strategic objectives of major patrons of the period, such as the Duke of Lerma and King Philip III of Spain, both fervent defenders of the Catholic faith.
