Abstract

Dieser Band stellt die Verschiedenheit der Gottesbilder des Altes Testamentes dar. Die einzelnen Schriften werden in ihrer synchronen Endfassung betrachtet. Sie reden auf ganz unterschiedliche Weise von Gott und zeigen dabei eine faszinierende Vielfalt von Theologien auf. Nessun altro tema è trattato in maniera più ampia ed estesa, nessun altro tema è più importante del modo in cui nell'Antico Testamento si parla di Dio. Nessun'altra parola ricorre più speso del nome proprio della divinità, Yhwh. La Bibbia è davvero il libro di Dio, è Lui il primo e anche il più importante aspetto. Nella prima frase del libro della Genesi è soggetto dell'atto del creare l'universo e nell'ultima frase dei libri delle Cronache la sua presenza gioca un ruolo decisivo. Nel presente volume, in maniera nuova, innovativa, seguendo una metodologia che presenta le caratteristiche letterarie di ogni libro nel suo "parlare di Dio" Georg Fischer si cimenta con successo a rispondere alla domanda centrale per la comprensione della visione teologica dell'Antico Testamento: come si parla di Dio al suo interno? Il risultato è un'opera variegata e complessa, puntuale e sistematica, riassuntiva e sintetica che già nel titolo - "teologie" al plurale - cerca di rendere giustizia a una dinamica che non vuole ridurre il discorso su Dio a un minimo comune denominatore riepilogativo, ma che accetta la sfida di confrontarsi con diverse immagini, complesse prospettive, descrizioni non uniformi e contenuti spesso contrastanti della figura del Dio di Israele. L'autore parte dall'analisi dei testi e giunge - dopo una presentazione approfondita delle teologie dei singoli libri - a un riepilogo dove le caratteristiche del Dio di Israele vengono considerate nella loro complessità, nel loro sviluppo e nelle prospettive che gettano anche sulla comprensione del Dio del Nuovo Testamento.

Abstract

The book brings to light a little-known story: the arrival in Italy of thousands of Moriscos exiles, descendants of Arab-Muslim origin, settled for centuries in the Iberian peninsula, baptized following the Christian Reconquista (1492), often accused of crypto-Islamism and betrayal of the homeland, eventually expelled and deported from Spain (1609-1614). What are the obstacles encountered by refugees along the journey of their exodus? What is the behavior of the authorities with respect to the landings? And in what terms have the refugees interacted with the local populations? These are current questions to ancient problems that Italy, in its political fragmentation, has already experienced.

Abstract

Summer of 1968: two young Spaniards arrive in Rome with a letter and a project to export. They are Francisco (Kiko) Argüello and Carmen Hernández. So, fifty years after its foundation, the Neocatechumenal Way begins, and this volume is among the first historiographical researches about it. The overall picture arising from the comparative analysis of archival documents and unpublished texts places the Neocatechumenal Way within the historical events that affected the Church of Rome from the end of the Second Vatican Council to the present today. From the study of a minor reality, the work aims at shedding light on more general questions: from the reception of the Second Vatican Council to the relations between the episcopates; from the publication of the New Dutch Catechism to the organized entrance of laymen and laity in the Church; from the liturgical reform to 'liturgical liberalism'.

Abstract

In the central centuries of the Modern Age, Latin was the official language of the Church of Rome, but from the analysis of papal edicts and decrees, it emerges that Vernacular was preferred as common language. While opposing the Lutheran doctrine, which favoured to the use of vernacular both in the Scriptures and in the liturgy, and keeping the knowledge of the mysteries of the faith only for those able to understand Latin, Italian bishops and inquisitors used vernacular to transmit papal edicts and conciliar decrees. What topics required complete understanding? Was there loyalty to the originals, or were the margins of interpretation exploited to contain the repressive hold imposed by the post-Tridentine papacy?.

Abstract

This work outlines the phenomenon of conversions to Catholicism which took place in Florence between the 17th and 18th century, and starts by reconstructing the history of the House of Catechumens. In the second half of the 17th century, thanks to a noblewoman from Florence's bequest, the Institute offered hospitality to "infidels" of all origins, and the number of conversions increased considerably. Such liberality ended up causing a serious economic crisis, which the Lorraine Grand Dukes tried to solve in the 18th century by restricting the field of action to Tuscan subjects only. However, there was no lack of abuse and interference by clergymen, especially towards Jews.

Abstract

In the context of the intense religious and social renewal known as "Gregorian Reform", the Camaldoli Hermitage and the Vallombrosa Abbey, both located in the Tuscan territory, gave rise to two movements of reform inspired by the spirituality of the respective founders, which later became congregations belonging to the benedictine family. Motivated by common instances, the Camaldolese and the Vallombrosan Orders were similar in some of their essential features and in the dynamics of their expansion. This statement has been the starting point of this work, which aims to formulate a comparative overview of the territorial spread of these reforms in Tuscany, by recording the known settlements and making an inventory of the religious communities interested by this phenomenom, in order to gather a broad range of examples of the way these movements interacted with the local situations in the different areas of the region. The text is enriched by a carthographic appendix illustrating the chronology of these congregations' development in medieval Tuscany.

Abstract

"Many scholars have studied the dialogue between the Epicurean tradition and Pierre Gassendi. However, no one so far has ever attempted to conduct a full analysis of the latter's specific reception of Lucretius. The book attempts to show that Gassendi was the first to discuss almost the whole De rerum natura, as part of an ambitious project. He sought to provide a Christianized version of Lucretius' theory or to develop an atomistic worldview "freed" from the many dangerous errors that were often imputed to atomism (impiety, debauchery, and irrationality). In particular, Gassendi developed a dialectical strategy that led him to recover a providential atomism, an Epicurean psychology that saves the immortality of the soul, and a Christian hedonism from the De rerum natura. The last goal was especially important. Gassendi here emerges as the culmination of a tradition of Christian philosophers, like Lorenzo Valla and Erasmus of Rotterdam, who have tried to merge Epicurean hedonism with the Christian religion. The volume could therefore attract both scholars of Antiquity and Renaissance/modern philosophy. It is also a rewarding reading for scholars of the reception of Latin poetry from a philosophical perspective."

Abstract

In principio era un uomo che interpretò la sua missione sulla terra nel senso di attrarre gli altri uomini fuori dai loro spazi (case, famiglie, attività, villaggi) e dal loro tempo (sto­rico) per condurli a sé verso altri spazi (ovunque egli andasse) in virtù dell’avvicendarsi di un altro tempo (escatologico). Quest’uomo fu condannato a morte e morì. A partire dai giorni immediatamente successivi alla sua creduta resurrezione, prende avvio il processo con cui altri uomini, in suo nome, si dedicano a ri-situare se stessi e l’uma­nità intera in quadri formali significativamente riconfigurati dall’evento cristico: luoghi al contempo mentali e sociali strutturati dalla duplice tensione tra gli spazi tradizionali del mondo e quelli peculiari della “chiesa”, tra il tempo presente della storia e quello della sua incipiente fine. In questo libro qualcosa come una nuova identità sociale dei credenti in Cristo è osservata nelle peripezie del suo costituirsi in relazione a quattro dei principali ambiti di soggettivazione del mondo antico: l’umanità, l’ethnos, la città, la scuola filosofica.

Abstract

The contributions collected in this volume are the result of the seminars organized by the Laboratory of Modern History during its ten-year activity (from 2003 to 2013) within the Department of Historical and Geographical Studies (now called SAGAS Department) of the University of Florence. Thanks to the participation of Italian and international colleagues, as well as young scholars, this annual cycle of seminars, entitled Temi e problemi della storia moderna ("Themes and problems of Modern History"), aims at encouraging the scientific community to discuss and reflect critically on topics of great historical importance. The theme of otherness is central in the Modern Age as well as in in the contemporary world, and it has been the subject of several seminars. The essays reconstruct significant moments and aspects of the relationships with "the other" in modern Europe: political models and cultural paradigms, cities of refuge and institutes of conversion, attitudes showing integration and/or exclusion of the Jews, Muslims, heretics and foreigners have been analysed in the volume according to the Laboratory's 'pluralistic spirit'.
