Book Synopsis The Society of Jesus in Ireland, Scotland, and England 1541-1588 by : Thomas M. McCoog, S.J.
Download or read book The Society of Jesus in Ireland, Scotland, and England 1541-1588 written by Thomas M. McCoog, S.J. and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2021-10-11 with total page 340 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume is the first comprehensive study of the work of the Society of Jesus in the British Isles during the sixteenth century. Beginning with an account of brief papal missions to Ireland (1541) and Scotland (1562), it goes on to cover the foundation of a permanent mission to England (1580) and the frustration of Catholic hopes with the failure of the Spanish Armada (1588). Throughout the book, the activities of the Jesuits - preaching, propaganda, prayer and politics - are set within a wider European context, and within the framework of the Society's Constitutions. In particular, the sections on religious life and involvement in diplomacy show how flexibly the Jesuits adapted their "way of proceeding" to the religious and political circumstances of the British Isles, and to the demands of the Counter-Reformation.

Download or read book The [Oxford] Handbook of the Jesuits written by Ines G. Zupanov and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2019-05-15 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Through its missionary, pedagogical, and scientific accomplishments, the Society of Jesus-known as the Jesuits-became one of the first institutions with a truly "global" reach, in practice and intention. The Oxford Handbook of the Jesuits offers a critical assessment of the Order, helping to chart new directions for research at a time when there is renewed interest in Jesuit studies. In particular, the Handbook examines their resilient dynamism and innovative spirit, grounded in Catholic theology and Christian spirituality, but also profoundly rooted in society and cultural institutions. It also explores Jesuit contributions to education, the arts, politics, and theology, among others. The volume is organized in seven major sections, totaling forty articles, on the Order's foundation and administration, the theological underpinnings of its activities, the Jesuit involvement with secular culture, missiology, the Order's contributions to the arts and sciences, the suppression the Order endured in the 18th century, and finally, the restoration. The volume also looks at the way the Jesuit Order is changing, including becoming more non-European and ethnically diverse, with its members increasingly interested in engaging society in addition to traditional pastoral duties.

Book Synopsis Pedro de Ribadeneyra’s 'Ecclesiastical History of the Schism of the Kingdom of England' by : Spencer J. Weinreich
Download or read book Pedro de Ribadeneyra’s 'Ecclesiastical History of the Schism of the Kingdom of England' written by Spencer J. Weinreich and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2017-03-06 with total page 865 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1588, the Spanish Jesuit Pedro de Ribadeneyra published a history of the English Reformation, which he continued to revise until his death in 1611. Spencer J. Weinreich’s translation is the first English edition of the History, one fully alive to its metamorphoses over two decades. Weinreich’s introduction explores the text’s many dimensions—propaganda for the Spanish Armada, anti-Protestant polemic, Jesuit hagiography, consolation amid tribulation—and assesses Ribadeneyra as a historian. The extensive annotations anchor Ribadeneyra’s narrative in the historical record and reconstruct his sources, methods, and revisions. The History, long derided as mere propaganda, emerges as remarkable evidence of the centrality of historiography to the intellectual, theological, and political battles of early modern Europe.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Following upon his Papist Pamphleteers and his English Catholic Books, 1641-1700, Father Clancy's new study focuses on the literary history of the English and Welsh Jesuits in the Seventeenth century, from the close of the Elizabethan age through the Stuart Period and up to the Enlightenment." "Tracing the main currents of the intellectual development of this important body of authors who wrote, translated and/or edited over 500 works on spirituality, theology, catechetics, history, sermons, drama, biography, controversy and devotional writings in Latin and English, this thorough study explores the shift of Jesuit spiritual writings from high spirituality to popular religion and the propagation of devotions. Besides new editions of Elizabethan authors such as Robert Persons, Henri Garnet and Robert Southwell, it analyses the works of later writers such as Nathaniel Bacon, Henry Hawkins, John Falconer, Emmanuel Lobb, Edward Scarisbrick, Matthew Wilson, John Warner, William Darrell and John Huddleston." "An engaging portrayal of the spiritual and intellectual evolution of these influential writers, A Literary History of the English Jesuits will be of interest not only to religious historians but to students and teachers of literature and bibliography as well."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.

Download or read book The Watchers written by Stephen Alford and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2012-11-13 with total page 417 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In a Europe aflame with wars of religion and dynastic conflicts, Elizabeth I came to the throne of a realm encircled by menace. To the great Catholic powers of France and Spain, England was a heretic pariah state, a canker to be cut away for the health of the greater body of Christendom. Elizabeth's government, defending God's true Church of England and its leader, the queen, could stop at nothing to defend itself. Headed by the brilliant, enigmatic, and widely feared Sir Francis Walsingham, the Elizabethan state deployed every dark art: spies, double agents, cryptography, and torture. Delving deeply into sixteenth-century archives, Stephen Alford offers a groundbreaking, chillingly vivid depiction of Elizabethan espionage, literally recovering it from the shadows. In his company we follow Her Majesty's agents through the streets of London and Rome, and into the dank cells of the Tower. We see the world as they saw it-ever unsure who could be trusted or when the fatal knock on their own door might come. The Watchers is a riveting exploration of loyalty, faith, betrayal, and deception with the highest possible stakes, in a world poised between the Middle Ages and modernity.

Download or read book Law and Conscience written by Stefania Tutino and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-03-02 with total page 279 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines the Catholic elaboration on the relationship between state and Church in late Elizabethan and Jacobean England. Among the several factors which have contributed to the complex process of state-formation in early modern Europe, religious affiliation has certainly been one of the most important, if not the most important. Within the European context of the consolidation of both the nation-state entities and the state-Churches, Catholicism in England in the 16th and 17th centuries presents peculiar elements which are crucial to understanding the problems at stake, from both a political and a religious point of view. Catholics in early modern England were certainly a minority, but a minority of an interestingly doubled kind. On the one hand, they were a "sect" among many others. On the other hand, Catholicism was a "universal", catholic religion, in a country in which the sovereign was the head - or governor - of both political and ecclesiastical establishments. In this context, this monograph casts light on the mechanisms through which a distinctive religious minority was able to adapt itself within a singular political context. In the most general terms, this book contributes to the significant question of how different religious affiliations could (or might) be integrated within one national reality, and how political allegiance and religious belief began to be perceived as two different identities within one context. Current scholarship on the religious history of early modern England has considerably changed the way in which historians think about English Protestantism. Recent works have offered a more nuanced and accurate picture of the English Protestant Church, which is now seen not as a monolithic institution, but rather as complex and fluid. This book seeks to offer certain elements of a complementary view of the English Catholic Church as an organism within which the debate over how to combine the catholic feature of the Church of Ro

Book Synopsis Art and Reform in the Late Renaissance by : Jesse M. Locker
Download or read book Art and Reform in the Late Renaissance written by Jesse M. Locker and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-08-14 with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Drawing on recent research by established and emerging scholars of sixteenth- and seventeenth-century art, this volume reconsiders the art and architecture produced after 1563 across the conventional geographic borders. Rather than considering this period a degraded afterword to Renaissance classicism or an inchoate proto-Baroque, the book seeks to understand the art on its own terms. By considering artists such as Federico Barocci and Stefano Maderno in Italy, Hendrick Goltzius in the Netherlands, Antoine Caron in France, Francisco Ribalta in Spain, and Bartolomeo Bitti in Peru, the contributors highlight lesser known "reforms" of art from outside the conventional centers. As the first text to cover this formative period from an international perspective, this volume casts new light on the aftermath of the Renaissance and the beginnings of "Baroque."

Download or read book The Library of a Jesuit Community at Holbeck, Nottinghamshire (1679) written by Hendrik Dijkgraaf and published by Arizona Center for Medieval and Renaissance Studies (ACMRS). This book was released on 2003 with total page 396 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The Holbeck catalogue is apparently the only recorded 17th-century Jesuit missionary library. There are of course several catalogues of Jesuit institutional libraries in France, Germany and elsewhere, but these are libraries solely for the clergy, and in some cases these libraries lost their Jesuit identity through being swamped by large gifts from outside sources. The Holbeck library, on the other hand, was just large enough to be a working tool, and compact enough to have a recognizable identity. Dr Dijkgraaf has supplied a comprehensive account of the library and its context and thanks to his elaborate analysis of the contents, we are able to rationalize and justify the presence of each and every book on the shelves."--BOOK JACKET.
