Book Synopsis Mary Magdalene from the New Testament to the New Age and Beyond by : Edmondo F. Lupieri
Download or read book Mary Magdalene from the New Testament to the New Age and Beyond written by Edmondo F. Lupieri and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2019-10-14 with total page 518 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An international team of twenty scholars under Edmondo F. Lupieri’s direction produced Mary Magdalene from the New Testament to the New Age and Beyond. While the historical figure of the Magdalene may be lost forever, the construction of her literary images and their transformations and adaptations over the centuries are a lively testimony to human creativity and faith. Different pictures of Mary travelled through time and space, from history to legend and mythology, crossed religious boundaries, going beyond the various Christianities, to become a “sign of contradiction” for many. This book describes a special case of biblical reception history, that of the New Testament figure of a woman whose presence at the side of Jesus has been disturbing for some, but proves to be inspiring for others.
Book Synopsis Il velo che ricopre le tenebre ed. Lusso by : gerardo guerra
Download or read book Il velo che ricopre le tenebre ed. Lusso written by gerardo guerra and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2012-10-01 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Quest'opera nasce in uno stile innovativo: i dialoghi come in un copione cinematografico costruiscono l'ordito della narrazione e disegnano appieno l'evoluzione del carattere complesso dei personaggi. Le descrizioni dei luoghi colgono come fotografie i momenti salienti della vicenda. Il tutto rendendo la narrazione simile allo svolgersi di un film. Cinque amici studenti, nel loro solito viaggio estivo, portano con se un misterioso libretto, composto unicamente da pagine bianche. Ma ad un tratto le pagine si riempiono di scritte inquietanti e l'incubo ha inizio. Ombre terrificanti assaliranno le anime piu belle in un crescendo di tensione che culminera una notte in una cattedrale deserta, tra passaggi segreti e botole nascoste, mentre una lugubre musica d'organo chiama a raccolta le anime dannate. In questo libro, dove l'amicizia e piu che un sentimento traspare l'idea dell'autore, testarda e tenace, che nessun uomo nasca per essere dannato, ne nasca per essere solo.
Book Synopsis Il codice segreto dei Templari by : Tim Wallace-Murphy
Download or read book Il codice segreto dei Templari written by Tim Wallace-Murphy and published by Newton Compton Editori. This book was released on 2013-05-16 with total page 474 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Il messaggio nascosto nelle grandi opere architettoniche dell’ordine, dalle cattedrali di Chartres, Reims e Amiens, alla cappella di Rosslyn e a Rennes-Le-Château La vera storia del simbolismo nascosto nell’arte rinascimentale è assai più affascinante di qualsiasi romanzo. Queste pagine, attraverso la decifrazione dei messaggi segreti celati in grandi opere architettoniche – come le magnifiche cattedrali di Chartres, Reims e Amiens, la misteriosa cappella di Rosslyn in Scozia, l’enigmatico villaggio di Rennes-le-Château – portano alla luce una storia fatta di complotti e intrighi, di poteri corrotti e di valorosi eroismi, di disinformazione, tradimento e cavalleria: una storia “altra” che la Chiesa dell’epoca ha provato in tutti i modi a tenere nascosta. I segreti celati nel simbolismo delle opere d’arte rappresentarono l’unico modo, geniale e prudente, per preservare la verità che letterati, artisti e intellettuali intendevano comunicare alle generazioni future – cioè a noi. Una volta interpretati i simboli si può dunque accedere alle loro conoscenze e alle loro scoperte, ritenute un tempo pericolose eresie. Perché i massoni e i Templari sono stati perseguitati dalla Chiesa? Forse perché erano votati a conservare la memoria di verità sgradite? È ancora possibile decifrare i loro messaggi nascosti? In principio • Nascita e sviluppo del simbolismo sacro • L’eredità dell’antica gnosi egizia La Bibbia, origini egizie del giudaismo e due discordanti opinioni su Gesù • La Bibbia e gli israeliti • Due diverse ipotesi sulla vita e sul ministero di Gesù Il cristianesimo dei primordi e lo sviluppo del suo simbolismo • San Paolo, la storia della Chiesa delle origini e la nascita del simbolismo cristiano • Il consolidamento dell’Europa cristiana e la nascita del simbolismo della Chiesa • Le meraviglie del Gotico La corrente sotterranea risale in superficie • La geometria sacra e la “langue verte” • Le correnti segrete in seno alla Chiesa • L’aspetto esteriore della cattedrale di Chartres • Il mistico interno della cattedrale di Chartres • La venerazione della Madonna Nera • Il Graal, i Trionfi dei Tarocchi e l’annientamento dei Templari • Il simbolismo mistico della Cappella di Rosslyn • Il flusso mai interrotto della corrente iniziatica • Simbolismo eretico nei dipinti rinascimentali • La controversa fratellanza dei massoni Tim Wallace-Murphy è nato in Irlanda e ha studiato medicina allo University College di Dublino.

Download or read book The Templars written by Barbara Frale and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2011-05-01 with total page 213 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Barbara Frale gives us an explosive, exhaustively researched history of the medieval world’s most powerful military order, the Templars. At its height, the Order of the Knights Templar rivaled the kingdoms of Europe in military might, economic power, and political influence. For 700 years, the tragic demise of this society of warrior-monks amid accusations of heresy has been plagued by controversy, in part because the transcript of their trial by the Inquisition—which held the key to the truth—had vanished. Templar historian Barbara Frale happened to be studying a document at the Vatican Secret Archives when she suddenly realized that it was none other than the long-lost transcript! It revealed that Pope Clement V had absolved the order of all charges of heresy. The Templars chronicles the spectacular rise and fall of the organization against a sweeping backdrop of war, religious fervor, and the struggle for dominance, and finally lifts the centuries-old cloak of mystery surrounding one of the world’s most intriguing secret societies.
Book Synopsis The Templars and their Sources by : Karl Borchardt
Download or read book The Templars and their Sources written by Karl Borchardt and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2017-01-20 with total page 420 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Even 700 years after the suppression of the Order of the Temple and the execution of the last grandmaster, Jacques de Molay, there is no shortage of publications on this influential military order. Yet unlike other medieval institutions the Templars are subject to speculative fiction and popular myth which threaten to swamp the fruits of scholarly endeavour. Fortunately, recent years have produced a thriving academic scholarship which is challenging these myths. More and more sources are currently being edited, particularly those for the trial of the Templars (1307–1312). Others are still awaiting indepth study, among them, surprisingly, the greater part of the charters that cover more than 150 years of the Order’s history. The papers in this volume step into this gap and critically evaluate new directions in Templar studies on the basis of as-yet unedited source material. Open issues and desiderata regarding the sources are discussed and from a range of inspiring results a new status quaestionis is proposed that will not only provide a better understanding of the Order’s archaeological, economical, religious, administrative and military history, but also set new points of departure for the editing of charters and administrative documents. The papers here are grouped into six sections, focusing on the headquarters of the Order, its charters, manpower and finance, religious life and finally the suppression and the Order’s afterlife.
Book Synopsis The Templars and the Shroud of Christ by : Barbara Frale
Download or read book The Templars and the Shroud of Christ written by Barbara Frale and published by Skyhorse. This book was released on 2015-10-13 with total page 262 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The most powerful military religious order of the Middle Ages and their sacred treasure. For a certain period in history, the Knights Templar—the most powerful military religious order of the Middle Ages—secretly guarded the Shroud of Turin. Worshipped in a relentlessly secret manner, and known in its intimate nature by only a handful of the order’s officials, the swathe of fabric was kept in the central treasury of the Knights Templar, who were known for their expertise in the field of relics. The precious cloth’s history and whereabouts were known only to the highest dignitaries of the secretive order. In an era of widespread doctrinal confusion in much of the Church, the Templars considered the Shroud to be a powerful antidote against the proliferation of heresies. Easy to read and thoroughly researched, this book tracks the Templars from their inception as warrior-monks protecting religious pilgrims to the later fascination with their secret rituals and incredible wealth, which ultimately led to their dissolution and the seizing of their assets. Following the Shroud’s pathway through the Middle Ages, Vatican historian Barbara Frale has gone back in time, to the dawn of the Christian era, to provide a new perspective on the controversial relic. The author also includes several photos of the Shroud itself that reveal in startling detail a human face, mysterious writing, and marks of a crucifixion that many have claimed identify it as the true burial shroud of Jesus of Nazareth.
Book Synopsis The Persecution of the Templars by : Alain Demurger
Download or read book The Persecution of the Templars written by Alain Demurger and published by Profile Books. This book was released on 2018-08-09 with total page 344 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The trial of the Knights Templar is one of the most infamous in history. Accused of heresy by the king of France, the Templars were arrested and imprisoned, had their goods seized and their monasteries ransacked. Under brutal interrogation and torture, many made shocking confessions: denial of Christ, desecration of the Cross, sex acts and more. This book follows the everyday reality of the trial, from the early days of scandal and scheming in 1305, via torture, imprisonment and the dissolution of the order, to 1314, when leaders Jacques de Molay and Geoffroy de Charnay were burned at the stake. Through first-hand testimony and written records of the interrogations of 231 French Templars, this book illuminates the stories of hundreds of ordinary members, some of whom testified at the trial, as well as the many others who denied the charges or retracted their confessions. A deeply researched and immersive account that gives a striking vision of the relentless persecution, and the oft-underestimated resistance, of the once-mighty Knights Templar.

Book Synopsis Twelve-Tribe Nations by : John Michell
Download or read book Twelve-Tribe Nations written by John Michell and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2008-10-24 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The symbolism and use of the number twelve in organizing ancient societies • Connects the zodiac, the twelve months of the year, and the political divisions of ancient nations • Explores the sacred geography of ancient landscapes in Europe and Israel Throughout the world--in countries as far apart as China, Ireland, Iceland, and Madagascar--there survive records and traditions of whole nations being divided into twelve tribes and twelve regions, each corresponding to one of the twelve signs of the zodiac and to one of the twelve months of the year. Best known are the twelve tribes of Israel under King Solomon, but there have been many others. Wherever they occur, they are associated with an ideal social order and a golden age of humanity. Exploring examples of these twelve-tribe societies, John Michell and Christine Rhone explain the blueprint for this organizational structure and look at the musical, mythological, and astronomical enchantments that kept these societies in harmony with the cosmos. They also examine the astrological landscapes of classical Greece, the aligned St. Michael sanctuaries of Europe, and the true site and function of the Temple in Jerusalem. They show that the sacred geography of these sites was part of an ancient code of knowledge that produced harmony between nature and humanity and is as relevant to our present and future as it was to our past.
Book Synopsis The New Knighthood by : Malcolm Barber
Download or read book The New Knighthood written by Malcolm Barber and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2012-03-26 with total page 469 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Order of the Temple was founded in 1119 with the limited aim of protecting pilgrims around Jerusalem. It developed into one of the most powerful corporations in the medieval world which lasted for nearly two centuries until its suppression in 1312. Despite the loss of its central archive in the sixteenth century, the Order left many records of its existence as the spearhead of crusading activity in Palestine and Syria, as the administrator of a great network of preceptories and lands in the Latin west, and as a banker and ship-owner. Because of the dramatic nature of its abolition, it has retained its grip on the imagination and consequently there has developed an entirely fictional 'after-history' in which its secret presence has been evoked to explain mysteries which range from masonic conspiracy to the survival of the Turin Shroud. This book offers a concise and up-to-date introduction to the reality and the myth of this extraordinary institution.
