Book excerpt: Beginning with volume 41 (1979), the University of Texas Press became the publisher of the Handbook of Latin American Studies, the most comprehensive annual bibliography in the field. Compiled by the Hispanic Division of the Library of Congress and annotated by a corps of more than 130 specialists in various disciplines, the Handbook alternates from year to year between social sciences and humanities. The Handbook annotates works on Mexico, Central America, the Caribbean and the Guianas, Spanish South America, and Brazil, as well as materials covering Latin America as a whole. Most of the subsections are preceded by introductory essays that serve as biannual evaluations of the literature and research under way in specialized areas. The Handbook of Latin American Studies is the oldest continuing reference work in the field. Dolores Moyano Martin, of the Library of Congress Hispanic Division, has been the editor since 1977, and P. Sue Mundell was assistant editor from 1994 to 1998. The subject categories for Volume 56 are as follows: ∑ Electronic Resources for the Humanities ∑ Art ∑ History (including ethnohistory) ∑ Literature (including translations from the Spanish and Portuguese) ∑ Philosophy: Latin American Thought ∑ Music

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cuando leemos los escritos de un profundo pensador cualquiera, despiértase al punto en nuestro corazón un ardiente deseo de saber cuál fué su patria, en qué época vivió, en qué medio ambiente moral respiró, cuáles fueron las vicisitudes de su vida, qué gloria le rodeó ó qué humillaciones y desprecios tuvo que sufrir, y, inalmente, cuáles fueron sus virtudes ó sus vicios. Si no podemos satisfacer esta curiosi- dad natural, consiguiendo una noticia al menos general de todas estas cosas, nuestro corazón siente un vacio muy grande, y nuestro entendimiento se ve privado de un conocimiento necesario para penetrarse mejor de la doctrina de esos escritos y para formar un juicio más exacto y cabal de ellos. Si tales escritos son, no ya meramente especulativos, sino que se refieren á la práctica y nos dan reglas y documentos para nuestro perfeccionamiento moral, entonces es más vivo é intenso el deseo de conocer la vida de ese escritor, y sube de punto la necesidad de tener algunas noticias de ella. Y es la razón, porque quisiéramos saber si las acciones de tal hombre conformaban con las reglas de moral que á nosotros nos dá; si sus enseñanzas son frutos de la era especulación, ó si nacen más bien de lo que ha aprendido en la práctica de la virtud y de la perfección. Y deseamos también saber todas esascosas, porque en caso de que el sabio en cuestión no nos enseñe sino lo que él mismo ha practicado, sus acciones serán para nosotros la explicación más clara y exacta de su doctrina. Este es el caso en que se hallarán los lectores de las obras de San Juan de la Cruz. Sabio éste y profundo escudriñador del corazón humano y gran conocedor de las vtas del espíritu, nos ha indicado los medios más á propósito para purificar nuestro propio cotazón de la escoria de los vicios, y ha tra- zado con mano maestra y singular el camino y ruta que deben seguir las almas, si quieren arribar á la alta cumbre del monte de ¡a perfección, si anhelan venir á unirse con Dios y á transformarse en él, mediante el, más puro y acendrado amor. Por otra parte, la doctrina que contienen sus celestiales escritos y las reglas y avisos que dá á las personas ansiosas de perfección, no son otra cosa que enseñanzas que brotan espontáneamente de su corazón; enseñanzas aprendidas, no en las aulas ni en los escritos de los filósofos, sino en la práctica continua de la perfección evangélica.Según estos principios, no podíamos contentarnos con sólo los reli- minares que anteceden, y que no dan cuenta sino de ¡as vicisitudes por que estos escritos han pasado: era necesario ade nás, que fuera al frente de ellos la vida admirable de su autor. Asi todas aquellas personas á cuyas manos vinieren estas obras, podrán conocer el caiácter, talento y virtudes del sabio Maestro, cuyos discípulos quieren ser, y con esto habrán dado un gran paso para comprender mejor sus admirables lecciones. Esta es la razón porque publicamos aquí este compendio de la vida de San Juan de la Cruz. Es el mismo que publicó el Padre Fray Andrés de Jesús María al frente de la edición de Sevilla, hecha el año de 1703, y el que se ha reproducido después en algunas otras ediciones. Casi todo él está extractado literalmente de la Historia lata que escribió del Místico Doctor, Fray Jerónimo de SanJosé. Algunos datos (muy pocos), se (ornaron de la vida que del Sanio publicó en las Flores del Carmelo el Padre Fray José de Santa Teresa. Nosotros, paia darle algún interés y novedad, le hemos añadido algunas notas curiosas, que generalmente hemos tomado del Proceso para la beatificación del Santo Padre. Quiera Dios que la lectura de esta Vida sirva para que todos los que la lean se revistan y animen del espíritu de San Juan de la Cruz, y asi entren con pie seguro en el estudio de sus admirables y celestiales escritos.

Book excerpt: This book is a study of the nine short poems, called romances, composed by the Spanish mystic Saint John of the Cross (San Juan de la Cruz). The focus of the poems is the Trinity, and their point of departure is the opening verses of the Gospel of John. This is the first in-depth, English-language analysis of these poems, and looks at their literary, historical, scriptural, theological, and mystical elements. It also ties these works to San Juan’s better-known lyrical poems and his prose commentaries. It will appeal to anyone interested in Spanish mystical poetry and the sources that inform that poetry.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 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.

Fue allá, en el año de 1927, cuando hice la exposición de la Fenomenología así como el Neokantismo, el Existencialismo de Heidegger y sus antecedentes y la Teoría de los Valores, especialmente de Max Scheler, en mis cátedras de Epistemología analítica y de Metafísica en la Facultad de Filosofía y Letras, dependiente de la Universidad Nacional de México. - Dr. Adalberto Garcia de Mendoza

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Acerca de Una encuesta de Gallup informa que una de cada veinticinco personas ha tenido una experiencia cercana a la muerte. El corazón les dejó de latir, sus ondas cerebrales cesaron, pero afirman que estaban más vivos que nunca. Con la reanimación médica mejorada, cada vez más pruebas --verificables-- indican que la vida no termina con nuestro último aliento, al contrario, solo está comenzando. Al extraer las similitudes encontradas en un estudio de más de mil relatos de experiencias cercanas a la muerte en todo el mundo, John Burke desarrolla una visión convincente y reconfortante de un mundo en el que · estamos libres de dolor · nos sentimos plenamente conocidos y aceptados · somos recibidos por seres queridos · nos encontramos con una belleza indescriptible · descubrimos un Dios que tiene un amor incondicional Si has perdido a un ser querido, recibiste un diagnóstico pavoroso o te preguntaste qué pasa después de la muerte, esta perspectiva concisa de la vida futura te brindará esperanza y sosiego.

Book excerpt: This title was first published in 2000: These essays ecplore the spiritual culture shared by texts and writers in Western Europe from the 13th to 17th centuries; the visionaries, mystics and nuns who were poets or scholars and the creative writers who drew on spiritual themes. The topics range chronologically from the late 13th to late 17th centuries and geographically from Germany, England, Italy, France, Spain and New Spain (Mexico), though the volume's centre is the spiritual culture of 16th-century Spain. Common concerns of each essay are the exploration of spiritual culture; how some texts and writers shape expectations attending the life of the spirit; and how they are in turn shaped by them. The sub-themes many of the essays share are the gendering of spiritual culture and the relationship between traditional literary genres like poetry and drama and spiritual discourse. Each text or spiritual figure covered here has a distinctive spiritual voice - a mystical gesture - that contributes an individual mysticism to the common spiritual culture they all share. Each scholar in her or his own way defines this mystical gesture. The essays analyze Mechthild von Magdburg, "Piers Plowman", "The Second Shepherds' Play", Catherine of Siena, Bernardo de Laredo, Teresa of Avila, Alonso de la Fuente, Luisa de Carvajal y Mendoza, Cecilian de nacimiento, Margaret Mary Alaconque and Sor Juana.

This book was released on 2009-08-01 with total page 138 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: San Juan de la Cruz es el gran desconocido del pueblo cristiano. En los últimos cuarenta años han proliferado métodos de oración y meditación trascendental. Y es precisamente en esa búsqueda por encontrar una guía firme y permanente donde muchos se han topado con san Juan de la Cruz. Al paso que canta la belleza de la creación en sus sublimes poemas, el santo nos recuerda que toda la belleza creada es nada comparada con la divina. Quien renuncie a lo pasajero, superficial e ilusorio, se encontrará con el Todo de Dios. El libro que nos ofrece Isaías A. Rodríguez no pretende sustituir a san Juan en lo que pueda decirnos, sino que nos ayuda a entender lo que san Juan nos dice, a ver los caminos que va señalando, y a seguir las pautas para nuestra peregrinación que es la vida. Saint John of the Cross is the great unknown of the Christian community. The last forty years have seen a growth in prayer methods and transcendental meditation. The search for a guide that teaches such prayer and meditation practices have led many seekers to the teachings of Saint John of the Cross. Like a song that sings the beauty of the creation in its sublime poems, the Saint teaches us that all of the beauty of creation is nothing in comparison with the beauty of the divine. In this book, Isaías A. Rodriguez does not pretend to be able to substitute Saint John in what he can teach us, but he helps us to understand what Saint John says to us, to discover the roads that he shows us, and to stay on course for our life pilgrimage.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book tracks New Spain's mendicant orders past their so-called golden age of missions into the ensuing centuries and demonstrates that they had equally crucial roles in what Melvin terms the "spiritual consolidation" of cities. Beginning in the late sixteenth century, cities became home to the majority of friars and to the orders' wealthiest houses, and mendicants became deeply embedded in urban social and cultural life. Friars ministered to urban residents of all races and social standings and engaged in traditional mendicant activities, serving as preachers, confessors, spiritual directors, alms collectors, educators, scholars, and sponsors of charitable works. Each order brought to this work a distinct identity that informed people's beliefs and shaped variations in the practice of Catholicism. Contrary to prevailing views, mendicant orders flourished during the seventeenth and early eighteenth centuries, and even the eighteenth-century reforms that ended this era were not as devastating as has been assumed.Even in the face of new institutional challenges, the demand for their services continued through the end of the colonial period, demonstrating the continued vitality of baroque piety.
