Abstract

Hubert Wolf und der evangelische Theologe Christoph Markschies haben für diesen Band 42 "Orte" zusammengestellt, die heute als die wichtigsten Fixpunkte christlicher Erinnerung – aber auch der Vergegenwärtigung des Christentums durch Nicht-Christen – gelten. Renommierte Theologen, Historiker und Journalisten beschreiben in glänzenden Essays 7 christliche "Erzorte" wie Rom, Konstantinopel und Wittenberg, 14 weitere geographische Orte wie Assisi, Bethel und Taizé sowie 21 symbolische Orte wie Kreuz, Gesangbuch oder Bibel. Das Ergebnis ist eine lehrreiche und kurzweilige Einführung in die christliche Religion, die verstehen lässt, warum Erinnerungsorte im Zentrum des Christentums stehen und Grundlage seiner kulturellen Bedeutung sind.

Abstract

Saints and Signs analyzes a corpus of hagiographies, paintings, and other materials related to four of the most prominent saints of early modern Catholicism: Ignatius of Loyola, Philip Neri, Francis Xavier, and Therese of Avila.Verbal and visual documents - produced between the end of the Council of Trent (1563) and the beginning of the pontificate of Urban VIII (1623) - are placed in their historical context and analyzed through semiotics - the discipline that studies signification and communication - in order to answer the following questions: How did these four saints become signs of the renewal of Catholic spirituality after the Reformation? How did their verbal and visual representations promote new Catholic models of religious conversion? How did this huge effort of spiritual propaganda change the modern idea of communication?The book is divided into four sections, focusing on the four saints and on the particular topics related to their hagiologic identity: early modern theological debates on grace (Ignatius of Loyola); cultural contaminations between Catholic internal and external missions (Philip Neri); the Christian identity in relation to non-Christian territories (Francis Xavier); the status of women in early modern Catholicism (Therese of Avila).

Abstract

Indigenous Symbols and Practices in the Catholic Church presents views, concepts and perspectives on the relationship among Indigenous Peoples and the Catholic Church, as well as stories, images and art as metaphors for survival in a contemporary world. Few studies present such a multidisciplinary interpretation of appropriation, spiritual and religious tradition, educational issues in the teaching of art and art history, the effects of government sanctions on traditional practice, or the artistic interpretation of symbols from Indigenous perspectives. Through photographs and visual studies, i
