Book Synopsis The Feeling Heart in Medieval and Early Modern Europe by : Katie Barclay
Download or read book The Feeling Heart in Medieval and Early Modern Europe written by Katie Barclay and published by Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG. This book was released on 2019-12-02 with total page 285 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The heart is an iconic symbol in the medieval and early modern European world. In addition to being a physical organ, it is a key conceptual device related to emotions, cognition, the self and identity, and the body. The heart is read as a metaphor for human desire and will, and situated in opposition to or alongside reason and cognition. In medieval and early modern Europe, the “feeling heart” – the heart as the site of emotion and emotional practices – informed a broad range of art, literature, music, heraldry, medical texts, and devotional and ritual practices. This multidisciplinary collection brings together art historians, literary scholars, historians, theologians, and musicologists to highlight the range of meanings attached to the symbol of the heart, the relationship between physical and metaphorical representations of the heart, and the uses of the heart in the production of identities and communities in medieval and early modern Europe.

Book Synopsis Religious Narratives in Italian Literature after the Second Vatican Council by : Jenny Ponzo
Download or read book Religious Narratives in Italian Literature after the Second Vatican Council written by Jenny Ponzo and published by Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG. This book was released on 2019-03-18 with total page 372 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents a semiotic study of the re-elaboration of Christian narratives and values in a corpus of Italian novels published after the Second Vatican Council (1960s). It tackles the complex set of ideas expressed by Italian writers about the biblical narration of human origins and traditional religious language and ritual, the perceived clash between the immanent and transcendent nature and role of the Church, and the problematic notion of sanctity emerging from contemporary narrative.
Book Synopsis The matter of miracles by : Helen Hills
Download or read book The matter of miracles written by Helen Hills and published by Manchester University Press. This book was released on 2021-02-02 with total page 742 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book investigates baroque architecture through the lens of San Gennaro’s miraculously liquefying blood in Naples. This vantage point allows a bracing and thoroughly original rethink of the power of baroque relics and reliquaries. It shows how a focus on miracles produces original interpretations of architecture, sanctity and place which will engage architectural historians everywhere. The matter of the baroque miracle extends into a rigorous engagement with natural history, telluric philosophy, new materialism, theory and philosophy. The study will transform our understanding of baroque art and architecture, sanctity and Naples. Bristling with new archival materials and historical insights, this study lifts the baroque from its previous marginalisation to engage fiercely with materiality and potentiality and thus unleash baroque art and architecture as productive and transformational.

Book Synopsis The Sacred Heart of Jesus by : David Morgan
Download or read book The Sacred Heart of Jesus written by David Morgan and published by Amsterdam University Press. This book was released on 2008 with total page 50 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From its origins in the mid-seventeenth century visions of the French nun Margaret Mary Alacoque (1647–90) to its continuing employment in worship today, the Devotion to the Sacred Heart of Jesus has been controversial. Vigorously promoted by Jesuit spiritual directors, embroiled in the controversies of Jansenist writers, closely associated with Royalist political causes in France, and taken around the world by Sister Sophie Barat in the nineteenth century, the Devotion’s practices took on the shape of its evolving visual culture and iconography. This volume traces the unfolding visual biography of the sacred heart and shows how imagery documents the Devotion’s remarkable evolution.
Book Synopsis La Devozione al S.Cuore di Gesù - Un libro indispensabile per il cammino spirituale di ogni cristiano by : Padre Giovanni Croiset S.j.
Download or read book La Devozione al S.Cuore di Gesù - Un libro indispensabile per il cammino spirituale di ogni cristiano written by Padre Giovanni Croiset S.j. and published by Giuseppe Amico. This book was released on 2015-09-02 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Questa edizione del libro di Padre Croiset S.J. dal titolo “Devozione al S. Cuore di Gesù” è un’opera antica dalla quale tante anime hanno raccolto copiosi frutti spirituali. Siamo convinti che anche al giorno d’oggi possa essere di utilità per molte persone che desiderano conoscere Dio, amarlo e glorificarlo nel suo figlio Gesù. Le motivazioni che illustrano l’importanza della devozione al S. Cuore di Gesù, sono citate nell’introduzione di Padre Venturini e spiegate in dettaglio nell’opera del Padre Croiset, il quale affianca anche pie meditazioni, orazioni, preghiere e atti d’amore da svolgere in determinati periodi dell’anno. Alcuni lettori potranno stupirsi del tono austero, severo, grave e solenne che talvolta traspare da queste pagine, scritte per un epoca che non è la nostra e che spesso, nel lodevole zelo dell’autore di voler tutti gli uomini salvi, dispensa consigli e ammonizioni che oggi potrebbero far sorridere molti, soprattutto chi è lontano dalle fonti dell’acqua viva offerta da Gesù a tutti gli uomini, coloro che non hanno ancora conosciuto le meraviglie dell’amore di Dio in un serio ed impegnato cammino spirituale e di ricerca. In questo libro sono presentate le pratiche che tutti i devoti del S. Cuore di Gesù dovrebbero compiere ogni giorno e in periodi predeterminati durante il corso dell’anno. Alle devozioni, vengono affiancate le formule e le speciali preghiere da accostare nei momenti di ritiro nell’orazione e nella meditazione. Questa nuova edizione, viene presentata nella sua versione originale, quindi con il linguaggio utilizzato dal Padre Croiset, quello del XVII secolo. Ma per ragioni di praticità e per rendere l’opera più fruibile, qua e là, sono state apportate piccole correzioni nella forma, aggiunte delle annotazioni e delle note a piè di pagina per rendere la lettura più scorrevole.

Book Synopsis The Devotion and Promotion of Stigmatics in Europe, C. 1800-1950 by : Tine Van Osselaer
Download or read book The Devotion and Promotion of Stigmatics in Europe, C. 1800-1950 written by Tine Van Osselaer and published by Numen Book. This book was released on 2021 with total page 470 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "In the nineteenth century a new type of mystic emerged in Catholic Europe. While cases of stigmatisation had been reported since the thirteenth century, this era witnessed the development of the 'stigmatic': young women who attracted widespread interest thanks to the appearance of physical stigmata. To understand the popularity of these stigmatics we need to regard them as the 'saints' and religious 'celebrities' of their time. With their 'miraculous' bodies, they fit contemporary popular ideas (if not necessarily those of the Church) of what sanctity was. As knowledge about them spread via modern media and their fame became marketable, they developed into religious 'celebrities'"--
Book Synopsis Diversity and Dissent by : Howard Louthan
Download or read book Diversity and Dissent written by Howard Louthan and published by Berghahn Books. This book was released on 2011-03-01 with total page 253 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Early modern Central Europe was the continent’s most decentralized region politically and its most diverse ethnically and culturally. With the onset of the Reformation, it also became Europe’s most religiously divided territory and potentially its most explosive in terms of confessional conflict and war. Focusing on the Holy Roman Empire and the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth, this volume examines the tremendous challenge of managing confessional diversity in Central Europe between 1500 and 1800. Addressing issues of tolerance, intolerance, and ecumenism, each chapter explores a facet of the complex dynamic between the state and the region’s Catholic, Protestant, Orthodox, Utraquist, and Jewish communities. The development of religious toleration—one of the most debated questions of the early modern period—is examined here afresh, with careful consideration of the factors and conditions that led to both confessional concord and religious violence.

Book Synopsis Finance and the Common Good by : Cor van Beuningen
Download or read book Finance and the Common Good written by Cor van Beuningen and published by . This book was released on 2019-07-16 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the past fifty years, (financial) capitalism has brought about an enormous growth in wealth. Millions around the world have been lifted out of poverty. However, the downsides of the present global economic constitution are rapidly becoming evident as well. Rising inequality, soaring debt levels, and repeated cycles of boom and bust have proven to be some of its key characteristics. After the 2008 crisis brought the financial system to the brink of collapse, new regulations, stricter supervision, higher capital requirements, and ethical codes were introduced to the sector. Today we find ourselves in the middle of another economic boom. Yet one pressing question remains: has anything changed? Have the (necessary) repairs fixed the flaws in the system? Or do we require even more fundamental reforms? This volume builds on the observation that society has co-evolved with the financial sector. We cannot simply claim that 'finance' was the sole instigator of the 2008 crisis. Society itself has become financialized; the process of replacing relations, structures of trust and reciprocity, by anonymous and systemic transactions. The volume poses vital questions with regard to this societal development. How did this happen? And more importantly: is change possible? If yes, how? This volume contains 21 essays on the themes mentioned above. Authors include Jan Peter Balkenende, Wouter Bos, Lans Bovenberg, Govert Buijs, and Herman Van Rompuy. A recommendation by Dutch Minister of Finance Wopke Hoekstra is also included.

Book excerpt: Fall of the Angels focuses on a biblical tradition whose significance has been recognised, elaborated and explored in literature and art outside the Bible.
