This book was released on 2016-05-31 with total page 289 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Reappraisal of the pioneering humanist scholar Biondo Flavio During his lifetime the historian and antiquarian Biondo Flavio (1392– 1463) struggled to obtain recognition as a major contributor to the humanistic movement of the fifteenth century. Throughout the Renaissance, fellow Italian scholars far too often condemned rather than endorsed his scholarly works. His troublesome career and mixed reputation among his peers stand in stark contrast with the highly innovative character of his learning, which proved to be ground-breaking for the further development of various strands of historical and antiquarian research in the Early Modern Age. The authors of this volume aim to contribute to a reappraisal of this pioneering humanist scholar by a fresh assessment of his major writings in the fields of historical linguistics, historiography, Roman topography, and historical geography.

Download or read book Cosmopolitanism: Educational, Philosophical and Historical Perspectives written by Marianna Papastephanou and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-05-05 with total page 231 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume discusses perspectives on cosmopolitanism, as well as concepts and the work of key figures. For example, it examines educational, philosophical and historical perspectives, deals with such issues as citizenship, internationalism, patriotism, globalization, hegemony and many other topics. It brings together works on Alain Badiou, Giorgio Agamben, Ernesto Laclau, Bruno Latour and Homi Bhabha with works on Whitman, Kant, Martha Nussbaum, Thomas Pogge, Onora O’Neill and Philippe Van Parijs. The book engages in the new dialogue on cosmopolitanism from a variety of outlooks. It advances that dialogue and problematizes it through as yet unexplored paths. Its chapters respond to the intricacies of current discourses on cosmopolitanism and related notions and take into account both affirmative and negative stances to cosmopolitanism and its educational significance. Overall, the book relies on such stances as background material in order to transcend them and offer fresh perspectives on cosmopolitan stakes. It makes use of a recent tendency in political philosophical and cultural-critical debates that opens a possibility of more nuanced approaches to old ‘-isms’.

Download or read book A Short History of Western Ideology written by Rolf Petri and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2018-02-22 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We are arguably living in a 'postideological' era. However, when we tune into the TV news we can hear political leaders talk about 'advanced' societies, geopolitical experts suggest 'humanitarian' interventions, and sober events presenters qualify a murder as 'barbaric'. What does this mean? In this comprehensive book, Rolf Petri reveals how our everyday political language is full of ideological representations of the world, and places them in an accessible historical narration. From the secularization of Europe and the Enlightenment project of 'civilization' to the contemporary preoccupation with ecological catastrophes or the end of history, A Short History of Western Ideology carves out the central elements of western ideology. It focuses on a wide variety of issues including religion, colonialism, race and gender, which are essential for how we conceive of the modern world. By creating an awareness of the ideological character of the western worldview, its limits and its flaws, this book warns us of the dangers that derive from a self-righteous mindset. It is stimulating and important reading for history and politics students seeking to understand the ideology of the western world.

Download or read book Il mito delle radici cristiane dell'Europa written by Sante Lesti and published by Giulio Einaudi Editore. This book was released on 2024-02-06 with total page 237 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Le radici cristiane dell'Europa sono uno dei grandi miti del nostro tempo. Le radici cristiane dell'Europa sono un mito storico-identitario. Pretendono di dirci non soltanto da dove veniamo, ma anche chi siamo e, soprattutto, non possiamo non essere, perché - come affermano i sostenitori del mito - un albero cui vengono tagliate le radici muore. Nei due secoli abbondanti della loro storia, le radici cristiane dell'Europa hanno cercato soprattutto di elevare alcuni (la Chiesa e i cattolici) al di sopra degli altri. Questo libro costituisce la prima storia del mito, dalla Rivoluzione francese ai giorni nostri. Anche perché le radici cristiane dell'Europa sembrano essere giunte a una svolta. Spesso c'è un confine sottile - anzi, sottilissimo - tra il vero e il falso. È questo il caso delle «radici cristiane dell'Europa», che possono essere tanto una rappresentazione oggettiva, perfino scientifica, della realtà, quanto una rappresentazione ideologica della realtà stessa, cioè un mito. Da oltre due secoli, infatti, si confrontano due modi apparentemente simili, eppure estremamente differenti (se non opposti), di raccontare la storia europea e, in particolare, il ruolo esercitato, al suo interno, dalla religione cristiana. Il primo, che affonda le sue radici nella riscoperta romantica della religione, presenta semplicemente il cristianesimo come un elemento fondamentale del passato dell'Europa; il secondo, che risale alla Controrivoluzione francese ed europea dell'ultimo decennio del Settecento, presenta il cristianesimo, invece, come l'elemento chiave di quel passato. Questo libro ricostruisce la lunga storia del secondo, dall'assedio di Lione da parte dell'esercito rivoluzionario francese (1793) all'attuale presidente del Consiglio italiano Giorgia Meloni, passando per tanti altri luoghi, attori (praticamente tutti maschi) ed eventi della storia europea degli ultimi due secoli. Le radici cristiane dell'Europa sono un mito in tutti i sensi. Innanzitutto, sono un racconto falso (anche se non fantastico) sulle origini di una cultura, tramandato - e continuamente trasformato - per legittimare un certo sistema sociale. Inoltre, rappresentano il frutto dell'idealizzazione di eventi e personaggi del passato, a cominciare dalla «cristianità» medievale.

Download or read book The Miracle of Amsterdam written by Charles Caspers and published by University of Notre Dame Pess. This book was released on 2019-05-31 with total page 404 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Miracle of Amsterdam presents a “cultural biography” of a Dutch devotional manifestation. According to tradition, on the night of March 15, 1345, a Eucharistic host thrown into a burning fireplace was found intact hours later. A chapel was erected over the spot, and the citizens of Amsterdam became devoted to their “Holy Stead." From the original Eucharistic processions evolved the custom of individual devotees walking around the chapel while praying in silence, and the growing international pilgrimage site contributed to the rise and prosperity of Amsterdam. With the arrival of the Reformation, the Amsterdam Miracle became a point of contention between Catholics and Protestants, and the changing fortunes of this devotion provide us a front-row seat to the challenges facing religion in the world today. Caspers and Margry trace these transformations and their significance through the centuries, from the Catholic medieval period through the Reformation to the present day.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines the origins, development and history of the cult of Saint Catherine of Siena. Gerald Parsons argues that the cult of Catherine of Siena constitutes a remarkable example of the cult of a particular saint which, across more than six centuries, has been the vehicle for an evolving sequence of civil religious rituals and meanings. He shows how the cult of this particular saint developed, firstly, as an expression of Sienese civil religion; secondly, as a focus for Italian civil religion; and finally into an expression of European civil religion. Instead of the predominantly devotional - and frequently essentially hagiographical - approach of much of the literature on Catherine of Siena, Parsons examines the significance of her cult from the perspective of civil religion and the social history of religion.

Book excerpt: Eating God examines the history of the Eucharist as a means for understanding transformations in society from the late Middle Ages onwards. After an introduction on the sacrament from its origins to the Protestant Reformation, this book considers how it changed the customs and habits of society, on not only behavioural and imaginative levels, but also artistic and figurative level. The author focuses on Counter-Reformation Italy as a laboratory for the whole of Christendom subject to Rome, and reflects on how, even today, the transformations of the modern age are relevant and influence contemporary debate. This book offers an innovative path through the history of a sacrament, with consideration of its impact as an ‘object’ that was used, venerated, eaten, depicted and celebrated far beyond the sphere of liturgical celebration. It will be particularly relevant to those interested in cultural history and the history of Christianity.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How does a city boy who only lived to the age of fifteen "go viral" more than a decade after he died? Discover the story of Blessed Carlo Acutis, the first millennial to be beatified by the Catholic Church. Born in 1991, the same year as the launch of the World Wide Web, Carlo has been hailed by the pope as an example of love and holiness in our complex digital age. This tech-savvy Italian teen has shown the world that computer coding and video games are no obstacle to sainthood. From a young age, Carlo's enthusiasm for Jesus was contagious. His witness brought his own family back to faith and even helped convert his Hindu au pair to Catholicism. Carlo called the Eucharist "my highway to heaven" and was eager to tell everyone about the incredible reality of Christ's true presence in the world. To this end, he used his computer to help design an exhibition dedicated to eucharistic miracles that has traversed the globe. Vatican journalist Courtney Mares has traveled in the footsteps of Acutis across Italy to tell his story in depth, interviewing many whose lives he helped transform. This book paints a portrait of him as seen through the eyes of his friends, family, teachers, priests, doctors, classmates, and followers. Features an eight-page color photo insert and an account of the miracles attributed to Acutis' intercession, including one certified by the Vatican. Carlo sought no attention for himself while alive, yet in the years after his death, he has become a global "influencer for God".
