The Crisis of Christendom
Author: Warren Hasty Carroll
Publisher:
ISBN: 9780931888847
Category : Church history
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
This final volume on the history of Christendom is concerned with the crises of the modern era, the turning points in the diseases which plagued humanity during these two centuries. The book discusses in detail Nazi and Japanese militarism and its crisis in World War II, the damage caused by the inhuman system of communism and its fall in 1989, and the origins and consequences of the denial of the dignity of the human person in the modern culture of death. As did earlier volumes in this series, the book reflects an unabashedly Christian and Catholic view of history, taking as one of its major themes the centrality of the papacy to the destiny of the West. Carroll holds that God and individual men and women, not impersonal social and economic forces, make history.--

The Building of Christendom
Author: Warren Hasty Carroll
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : Church history
Languages : en
Pages : 632
Book Description
The second of a projected six volumes, this carries the story of the building of a Christian civilization in Europe from the conversion of Roman Emperor Constantine in the fourth century to the end of the First Crusade. Christ and His Church remain at the center of the story and the key to judging the significance and character of the events described. However, this is more than a history of the Church; it is a political and religious history of Christendom as shaped by the Church - by lay men and women as well as Popes, bishops, priests, monks and nuns - during eight dramatic centuries when Rome fell, Muslims and barbarians attacked Christian Europe, and a new civilization was born.

Mary Magdalene
Author: Adriana Valerio
Publisher: Europa Editions
ISBN: 1609457064
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 99
Book Description
“Brilliant . . . Essential reading for anyone who cares about Church history and gender equality. . . . speaks to our times with impressive relevance.” —Reading in Translation From one of Italy’s most renowned historians of religion, an exciting new portrait of one of Christianity’s most complex—and most misunderstood—figures: Mary Magdalene Jesus’ favorite and most devoted disciple? A prostitute shunned from her community? A symbol of female leadership and independence? Who really was Mary Magdalene, and how does her story fit within the history of Christianity, and that of female emancipation? In this meticulously researched, highly engaging book, Adriana Valerio looks at history, art, and literature to show how centuries of misinterpretation and willful distortion—aimed at establishing and preserving gender hierarchies—have stripped this historical figure of her complexity and relevance. By revealing both the benign and the pernicious misrepresentations of Mary Magdalene, this thought-provoking essay reaffirms the central role played by women in the origins of Christianity and their essential contribution to one of the founding experiences of Western thought and society. “Persuasive. . . . Academics working in Christianity should get much from this well-argued study.” —Publishers Weekly “A masterful work.” —Osservatore Romano “A short and readable yet sweeping and well-researched essay that stands out for its intellectual honesty [ . . . ] We are all Mary Magdalene.” —Cultura al femminile
