Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Based on extensive primary archival materials, Faith and Action is a comprehensive history of the Catholic Archdiocese of Cincinnati over the past 175 years. Fortin paints a picture of the Catholic Church's involvement in the city's development and contextualizes the changing values and programs of the Church in the region. He characterizes the institution's history as one of both faith and action. From the time of its founding to the present, the way Catholics in the archdiocese of Cincinnati have viewed their relationship with the rest of society has changed with each major change in society. In the beginning, while espousing separation of church and state and religious liberty, they wanted the Church to adapt to the new American situation. In the mid-nineteenth century Cincinnati Catholics dealt with a dominant Protestant culture and, at times, a hostile environment, whereas a century later it had become much more a part of the American mainstream. Throughout most of the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries most Catholics saw themselves as outsiders. During the past fifty years, however, Cincinnati Catholics, like most of their counterparts in the United States, have felt more confident and viewed themselves as very much a part of American society"--Publisher's description

Download or read book Dutch Chicago written by Robert P. Swierenga and published by Wm. B. Eerdmans Publishing. This book was released on 2002-11-07 with total page 940 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Now at least 250,000 strong, the Dutch in greater Chicago have lived for 150 years "below the radar screens" of historians and the general public. Here their story is told for the first time. In Dutch Chicago Robert Swierenga offers a colorful, comprehensive history of the Dutch Americans who have made their home in the Windy City since the mid-1800s. The original Chicago Dutch were a polyglot lot from all social strata, regions, and religions of the Netherlands. Three-quarters were Calvinists; the rest included Catholics, Lutherans, Unitarians, Socialists, Jews, and the nominally churched. Whereas these latter Dutch groups assimilated into the American culture around them, the Dutch Reformed settled into a few distinct enclaves -- the Old West Side, Englewood, and Roseland and South Holland -- where they stuck together, building an institutional infrastructure of churches, schools, societies, and shops that enabled them to live from cradle to grave within their own communities. Focusing largely but not exclusively on the Reformed group of Dutch folks in Chicago, Swierenga recounts how their strong entrepreneurial spirit and isolationist streak played out over time. Mostly of rural origins in the northern Netherlands, these Hollanders in Chicago liked to work with horses and go into business for themselves. Picking up ashes and garbage, jobs that Americans despised, spelled opportunity for the Dutch, and they came to monopolize the garbage industry. Their independence in business reflected the privacy they craved in their religious and educational life. Church services held in the Dutch language kept outsiders at bay, as did a comprehensive system of private elementary and secondary schools intended to inculcate youngsters with the Dutch Reformed theological and cultural heritage. Not until the world wars did the forces of Americanization finally break down the walls, and the Dutch passed into the mainstream. Only in their churches today, now entirely English speaking, does the Dutch cultural memory still linger. Dutch Chicago is the first serious work on its subject, and it promises to be the definitive history. Swierenga's lively narrative, replete with historical detail and anecdotes, is accompanied by more than 250 photographs and illustrations. Valuable appendixes list Dutch-owned garbage and cartage companies in greater Chicago since 1880 as well as Reformed churches and schools. This book will be enjoyed by readers with Dutch roots as well as by anyone interested in America's rich ethnic diversity.

Download or read book Teach Me to Be Generous written by Anthony D. Andreassi and published by Fordham Univ Press. This book was released on 2014-03-03 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Teach Me to Be Generous tells the remarkable story of Regis High School, the Jesuit school on New York’s Upper East Side that was founded in 1914 by an anonymous donor as a school for Catholic boys whose families could not otherwise afford a Catholic education. Enabled by the philanthropy of the founding family for nearly a century, and now by alumni and friends carrying on that tradition of generosity, Regis has been able to provide tuition-free, all-scholarship education for its entire history. It also holds the distinction of being the first free-standing Jesuit high school in the United States, with no connection to any Jesuit colleges or universities. Regis High School’s unique story is told by an engaging storyteller and historian who has taught at the school for more than ten years. Father Andreassi offers captivating glimpses into the lives and daily experiences of Regis’s students and faculty while chronicling the development of the school’s educational philosophy and spiritual approach in its first century. Filled with entertaining anecdotes alongside wider historical context and illuminating statistical analysis, Teach Me to Be Generous tracks Regis High School through the decades of the twentieth century to the present day—from the generosity of a devout Catholic widow, through the Depression and World War II, to changes in demographics of the Catholic community and shifts in the landscape of Catholic education in New York City. During the school’s first few decades, Regis admitted thousands of Catholic boys, mostly from poor or lower-middle-class families, helping prepare them for success in college and leadership positions in the professions. Because of the closing of dozens of urban Catholic schools and the general decline of the quality of New York City’s public schools, in more recent years the school has faced the challenge of remaining true to its mission in offering an education to Catholic boys “who otherwise would not be able to afford a Catholic education.” Teach Me to Be Generous paints a vivid portrait of the first one hundred years of an exceptional institution and looks with hope and confidence to its future.

Download or read book Transcontinental Links in the History of Non-Western Christianity written by Klaus Koschorke and published by Otto Harrassowitz Verlag. This book was released on 2002 with total page 348 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sehr viel starker und fruher, als bislang wahrgenommen, ist die Geschichte des Christentums in Asien, Afrika und Lateinamerika seit dem 16. Jahrhundert durch polyzentrische Strukturen gekennzeichnet. Zugleich bestanden zahlreiche Querverbindungen zwischen den entstehenden UberseeKirchen, teils auch ganz unabhangig von missionarischen Netzwerken. Die Beitrage der Zweiten Internationalen Munchen-Freisinger Konferenz behandeln unterschiedliche Formen transkontinentaler Verbindungen und fruhe Beispiele direkter SudSudBeziehungen. Dabei werden drei Paradigmen diskutiert: 1. Ethnische Diasporen als Netzwerke, die fur eine uberregionale Selbstausbreitung des Christentums relevant sind; 2. Transkontinentale Rezeptionsprozesse; 3. Parallelentwicklungen in Asien, Afrika und Lateinamerika. (Texte in deutscher und englischer Sprache). Since the 16th century the history of Christianity in Asia, Africa and Latin America has been much more polycentric in patterns of interaction than has been traditionally recognized. At the same time there have existed many links between the emergent overseas churches, often quite independent of missionary connections. The papers from the Second International MunichFreising Conference deal with various forms of transcontinental links and early instances of SouthtoSouth interactions. (Texts in German and English)

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This re-issue of the 1984 work includes a new preface. The saga of the failed town of Alderson, Alberta illustrates the greater story of drought and depopulation in the prairie dry belt of southwestern Alberta and eastern Saskatchewan from the turn of the century through the mid 1900s. According to Jones, a professor of history from Calgary, the doomed farmer exodus from the core of the continent, "part of a massive North American tragedy," was encouraged by boosterism, lightning expansion, and miscalculation. A substantial appendix lists population data and crop prices. Annotation copyrighted by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR
