Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During this Jubilee year there will be many millions world-wide going on pilgrimages to special designated shrines to gain the Jubilee Indulgence. It is estimated that there will be millions of pilgrims converging on Italy during this Jubilee year. There are over 1500 Marian Shrines in Italy, which account for 85% of all their shrines. Marian Shrines in Italy is both timely and informative. Anyone reading this book during this Jubilee year will have a greater appreciation of what it means to be Catholic, and to be Catholic means to be Marian. The history, the culture, the great masterpieces of Italy, and above all the Faith that inspired the building of these great Marian Shrines can not help but to make one proud of being a member of the Holy, Roman, Catholic Faith. The book has over 40, well illustrated chapters on the Marian shrines. Each inspiring story shows dramatically how Mary has helped her children both collectively and individually, visibly shown at her shrines through the many thousands of ex-voto offering for favors received. The chapters vary from apparitions of Our Lady which motivated the building of a shrine where many graces and miracles have been recorded and documented. Other topics include; a Basilica built on a plot of ground marked off by snow in the hottest month of the year in Rome; the Holy House of Mary in Nazareth appearing in Loreto, Italy; a beautiful Icon of Our Lady on a piece of heavy slate floating from an overflowing well; the building of a whole city around a basilica in honor of Our Lady of the Rosary constructed by a lawyer who was a former Satanist priest, and more.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Oxford Handbook of Mary offers an interdisciplinary guide to Marian Studies, including chapters on textual, literary, and media analysis; theology; Church history; art history; studies on devotion in a variety of forms; cultural history; folk tradition; gender analysis; apparitions and apocalypticism. Featuring contributions from a distinguished group of international scholars, the Handbook looks at both Eastern and Western perspectives and attempts to correct imbalance in previous books on Mary towards the West. The volume also considers Mary in Islam and pilgrimages shared by Christian, Muslim, and Jewish adherents. While Mary can be a source of theological disagreement, this authoritative collection shows Mary's rich potential for inter-faith and inter-denominational dialogue and shared experience. It covers a diverse number of topics that show how Mary and Mariology are articulated within ecclesiastical contexts but also on their margins in popular devotion. Newly-commissioned essays describe some of the central ideas of Christian Marian thought, while also challenging popularly-held notions. This invaluable reference for students and scholars illustrates the current state of play in Marian Studies as it is done across the world.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1295, a house fell from the evening sky onto an Italian coastal road by the Adriatic Sea. Inside, awestruck locals encountered the Virgin Mary, who explained that this humble mud-brick structure was her original residence newly arrived from Nazareth. To keep it from the hands of Muslim invaders, angels had flown it to Loreto, stopping three times along the way. This story of the house of Loreto has been read as an allegory of how Catholicism spread peacefully around the world by dropping miraculously from the heavens. In this book, Karin Vélez calls that interpretation into question by examining historical accounts of the movement of the Holy House across the Mediterranean in the thirteenth century and the Atlantic in the seventeenth century. These records indicate vast and voluntary involvement in the project of formulating a branch of Catholic devotion. Vélez surveys the efforts of European Jesuits, Slavic migrants, and indigenous peoples in Baja California, Canada, and Peru. These individuals contributed to the expansion of Catholicism by acting as unofficial authors, inadvertent pilgrims, unlicensed architects, unacknowledged artists, and unsolicited cataloguers of Loreto. Their participation in portaging Mary’s house challenges traditional views of Christianity as a prepackaged European export, and instead suggests that Christianity is the cumulative product of thousands of self-appointed editors. Vélez also demonstrates how miracle narratives can be treated seriously as historical sources that preserve traces of real events. Drawing on rich archival materials, The Miraculous Flying House of Loreto illustrates how global Catholicism proliferated through independent initiatives of untrained laymen.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As someone who has led Catholic pilgrimages to Italy for more than twenty years and serves as an Italy travel coach, Teresa Tomeo is all too familiar with stories of travelers who rushed from one church to another, barely stopping to enjoy a good Italian meal as they check off the items on their Italy bucket lists. They arrive back home exhausted, barely able to remember what they saw and experienced. They fail to embrace la dolce far niente, the sweetness of doing nothing, and feel they have little or nothing to show for their visit except credit card bills and sore feet. Italy's Shrines and Wonders is a welcome and important tool for pilgrims and tourists in general who, in addition to seeing the main places of interests, long to experience a slice of real Italian life. The book will include a look at some of the most unique sacred spaces as well as fascinating places not often visited by the typical tourist. Whether it's a small Marian shrine hidden in the Umbrian hills where believers have been visiting for several hundred years, or the modern but quirky big benches that force one to slow down and make you feel like a kid again, Italy's Shrines and Wonders would add so much more to their voyage. It would also be one of those books that folks who can't get overseas would enjoy with unique stories-some attached to major festivals and processions unknown outside of the various Italian regions.

This book was released on 2002 with total page 488 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This groundbreaking book looks at the major approved Marian apparitions of the last five centuries and relates them to important historical moments: the Reformation, the French and Russian Revolutions, the rise of Nazism. These Marian apparitions, and particularly Fatima, are not historically unimportant events, but rather follow a preordained plan: they have a crucial role in helping us to see how the modern world, with all its problems, has developed. Donal Foley makes clear the fascinating and intriguing connections between Marian apparitions and the Scriptural types of Mary found in the Bible, a crucial element in the theology and exegesis of the early Church Fathers. By understanding these biblical types and their symbolism we see that each of the apparitions has a much greater significance for both the Church and the modern world than has generally been recognised. Here is a convincing demonstration that the future of the Church, and the papacy, is intimately bound up with a proper understanding of the role of Mary: there will only be true peace in the world when her message is accepted and lived. If you thought you really understood how the modern world developed, and the role and meaning of Marian apparitions, then this book will make you think again. 'Donal Foley has written a book with an extraordinary message.' Aidan Nichols, O.P.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Christian Pilgrimage in Modern Western Europe is a commanding exploration of the importance of religious shrines in modern Roman Catholicism. By analyzing more than 6,000 active shrines and contemporary patterns of pilgrimage to them, the authors establish the cultural significance of a religious tradition that today touches the lives of millions of people. Roman Catholic pilgrimage sites in Western Europe range from obscure chapels and holy wells that draw visitors only from their immediate vicinity to the world-famous, often-thronged shrines at Rome, Lourdes, and Fatima. These shrines generate at least 70 million religiously motivated visits each year, with total annual visitation exceeding 100 million. Substantial numbers of pilgrims at major shrines come from the Americas and other areas outside Western Europe. Mary Lee Nolan and Sidney Nolan describe and interpret the dimensions of Western European pilgrimage in time and space, a cultural-geographic approach that reveals regional variations in types of shrines and pilgrimages in the sixteen countries of Western Europe. They examine numerous legends and historical accounts associated with cult images and shrines, showing how these reflect ideas about humanity, divinity, and environment. The Nolans demonstrate that the dynamic fluctuations in Christian pilgrimage activities over the past 2,000 years reflect socioeconomic changes and technological transformations as well as shifting intellectual orientations. Increases and decreases in the number of shrines established coincide with major turning points in European history, for pilgrimage, no less than wars, revolutions, and the advent of urban-industrial society, is an integral part of that history. Pilgrimage traditions have been influenced by -- and have influenced -- science, literature, philosophy, and the arts. Christian Pilgrimage in Modern Western Europe is based on ten years of research. The Nolans collected information on 6,150 shrines from published material, correspondence with bishops and shrine administrators, and interviews. They visited 852 Western European shrines in person. Their book will be of interest to many general readers and of special value to historians, cultural geographers, students of comparative religion, anthropologists, social psychologists, and shrine administrators.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The works of Spanish nun SAINT TERESA OF AVILA (1515-1582) rank among the most extraordinary mystical writings of Roman Catholicism and among the classics of all religious traditions... and her own life story is considered one of the finest autobiographies in any language. From her carefree childhood through her life as an ascetic Carmelite nun, from her visions of Satan through her worship of God, this is her passionate yet earthy retelling of her struggles with temptation, her work founding and ruling convents, and her devotion to God. Hailed by those seeking spiritual succor as one of the most accessible guides to achieving a closer relationship to God through prayer, this extraordinary book remains a commanding entry to numinous Christianity.
