Book Synopsis Transforming Saints by : Charlene Villaseñor Black
Download or read book Transforming Saints written by Charlene Villaseñor Black and published by Vanderbilt University Press. This book was released on 2022-07-15 with total page 385 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Transforming Saints explores the transformation and function of the images of holy women within wider religious, social, and political contexts of Old Spain and New Spain from the Spanish conquest to Mexican independence. The chapters here examine the rise of the cults of the lactating Madonna, St. Anne, St. Librada, St. Mary Magdalene, and the Suffering Virgin. Concerned with holy figures presented as feminine archetypes—images that came under Inquisition scrutiny—as well as with cults suspected of concealing Indigenous influences, Charlene Villaseñor Black argues that these images would come to reflect the empowerment and agency of women in viceregal Mexico. Her close analysis of the imagery additionally demonstrates artists' innovative responses to Inquisition censorship and the new artistic demands occasioned by conversion. The concerns that motivated the twenty-first century protests against Chicana artists Yolanda López in 2001 and Alma López in 2003 have a long history in the Hispanic world, in the form of anxieties about the humanization of sacred female bodies and fears of Indigenous influences infiltrating Catholicism. In this context Black also examines a number of important artists in depth, including El Greco, Murillo, Jusepe de Ribera, Pedro de Mena, Baltasar de Echave Ibía, Juan Correa, Cristóbal de Villalpando, and Miguel Cabrera.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this first annotated edition of F. R. Leavis' famous critique of C. P. Snow's influential argument about 'the two cultures', Stefan Collini reappraises both its literary tactics and its purpose as cultural criticism. The edition will enable new generations of readers to understand what was at stake in the dispute and to appreciate the enduring relevance of Leavis's attack on the goal of economic growth. In his comprehensive introduction Collini situates Leavis's critique within the wider context of debates about 'modernity' and 'prosperity', not just the 'two cultures' of literature and science. Collini emphasizes the difficulties faced by the cultural critic in challenging widely-held views and offers an illuminating analysis of Leavis's style. The edition provides full notes to references and allusions in Leavis's texts.
Book Synopsis Einstein in Spain by : Thomas F. Glick
Download or read book Einstein in Spain written by Thomas F. Glick and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2014-07-14 with total page 406 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From 1900 to 1924 Spain experienced a stage of vigorous academic freedom and unfettered scientific inquiry that strikingly contrasted with the repressive atmosphere of the periods before and after. Thomas Glick explores this "recovery of science" by focusing on the national discussion provoked by Einstein's trip to Spain in 1923. His visit stimulated a debate on the nature and social value of science that was remarkable in a society so recently awakened to the scientific role in the process of modernization. Einstein's universal appeal created the unlikely occasion for a fascination with science that cut across social classes and previously established domains of discourse. The political Right, which in other countries opposed relativity in the name of "traditional" Newtonian science, backed the new theories with surprising enthusiasm. Engineers, a politically conservative group, contributed much of the rank-and-file support for Einstein; physicians, who tended to the Left, also eagerly embraced his ideas, as did a host of mutually antagonistic political groups, including anarcho-syndicalists and bourgeois Catalan nationalists. Professor Glick's analysis of this multidimensional scientific forum provides an unusual amount of information on science in Spain and an opportunity to contrast the Spaniards' reception of Einstein's work and that of other nations during this historical period. Originally published in 1988.

Book Synopsis Environment, Trade and Society in Southeast Asia by :
Download or read book Environment, Trade and Society in Southeast Asia written by and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2015-03-20 with total page 270 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Environment, Trade and Society in Southeast Asia: A Longue Durée Perspective, eleven historians bring their knowledge and insights to bear on the long Braudelian sweep of Southeast Asian history. In doing so they seek both to debunk simplistic assumptions about fragile traditions and transformational modernities, and to identify real repeating patterns in Southeast Asia's past: clientelistic political structures, periodic tectonic and climatic disasters, ethnic occupational specializations, long cycles of economic globalization and deglobalization. Their contributions range across many centuries: from the Austronesian expansion to the Aceh tsunami, and from the Sanskrit cosmopolis to the Asian financial crisis. The book is inspired by, and dedicated to, Peter Boomgaard, a scholar whose work has embodied the Braudelian spirit in Southeast Asian historiography. This title is available online in its entirety in Open Access.
Book Synopsis La Historia y Novena de Nuestra Señora Del Buen Suceso by : Rev P. Manuel Sousa Pereira

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: El 16 de enero 1599, la Santisima Madre de Dios se aparecio a la Madre Mariana de Jesus Torres en el Convento de la Inmaculada Concepcion en Quito, Ecuador, para pedirle que tenga una estatua de si misma como ella aparecio, con el Nino Jesus en su el brazo izquierdo y un baculo y las llaves del claustro en su mano derecha. Nuestra Senora sostiene el baculo como una senal de que ella gobierna el convento y asimismo pidio que su estatua se coloco sobre el trono de la abadesa, donde la estatua aun se conserva hasta nuestros dias. La estatua fue consagrada por el obispo de Quito el 2 de febrero de 1611, con el titulo: "Maria del Buen Suceso de la Purificacion o Candelaria." Durante las diversas apariciones otorgados a la Madre Marianna hasta su muerte el 16 de enero de 1635, Nuestra Senora del Buen Sueso predijo los males de nuestro tiempo con gran detalle. Le dijeron que sus visiones y la vida solo se conocen a partir del siglo XX, y se le pidio ayudar con sus oraciones y penitencias las almas de la epoca en la que habria una enorme decadencia de la fe. Fue la voluntad de Dios para reservar estas revelaciones y el relato de la vida de la Madre Mariana de nuestro tiempo, cuando la corrupcion de comportamiento es universal y la preciosa luz de la fe esta casi extinguida, el cumplimiento de las profecias de Nuestra Senora. La Madre de Dios tambien predijo que esta devocion se alcanzaran misericordia y perdon para todos los pecadores que acuden a ella con un corazon contrito ya que ella es la Madre de la Misericordia. Del mismo modo, dijo, "El titulo consoladora del Buen Suceso... sera el apoyo y salvaguarda de la fe en la presencia de la corrupcion completa del siglo XX."
