La consolation
Author: Sophie de JésusPublisher: FeniXX

Languages : fr
Pages : 42
Book Description
"Consolez, consolez mon peuple", dit le Seigneur (Isaïe). Cet appel, s’il retentit en nos cœurs, est — avant tout — le cri du cœur de notre Dieu. Nous avons soif de consoler, besoin aussi de l’être, mais savons-nous nous tourner vers le Dieu de toute consolation, vers Celui, dont la compassion et la tendresse ne demandent pas mieux que de se répandre dans le cœur de tout homme pour le réconforter, l’apaiser, lui redonner vie. Ce traité nous donne d’approcher, d’abord à travers la Bible, cette consolation divine. Puisse l’Esprit consolateur visiter nos cœurs, et déployer en eux cette capacité à répandre la Consolation qui nous vient de Dieu.

This volume examines for the first time the most important methodological issues concerning Christian poetry – i.e. biblical and theological poetry in classical meters – from a diachronic perspective. Thus, it is possible to evaluate the doctrinal significance of these compositions and the role that they play in the development of Christian theological ideas and biblical exegesis.
The Pope's Body
Author: Agostino Paravicini-BaglianiPublisher: University of Chicago Press
ISBN: 9780226034379
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 448
Book Description
In contrast to the role traditionally fulfilled by secular rulers, the pope has been perceived as an individual person existing in a body subject to decay and death, yet at the same time a corporeal representation of Christ and the Church, eternity and salvation. Using an array of evidence from the eleventh through the fifteenth centuries, Agostino Paravicini- Bagliani addresses this paradox. He studies the rituals, metaphors, and images of the pope's body as they developed over time and shows how they resulted in the expectation that the pope's body be simultaneously physical and metaphorical. Also included is a particular emphasis on the thirteenth century when, during the pontificate of Boniface VIII (1294-1303), the papal court became the focus of medicine and the natural sciences as physicians devised ways to protect the pope's health and prolong his life. Masterfully translated from the Italian, this engaging history of the pope's body provides a new perspective for readers to understand the papacy, both historically and in our own time.

Africa from the Sixteenth to the Eighteenth Century
Author: Bethwell A. OgotPublisher: Univ of California Press
ISBN: 9780435948115
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 1088
Book Description
The result of years of work by scholars from all over the world, The UNESCO General History of Africa reflects how the different peoples of Africa view their civilizations and shows the historical relationships between the various parts of the continent. Historical connections with other continents demonstrate Africa's contribution to the development of human civilization. Each volume is lavishly illustrated and contains a comprehensive bibliography. This fifth volume of the acclaimed series covers the history of the continent from the beginning of the sixteenth century to the close of the eighteenth century in which two themes emerge: first, the continuing internal evolution of the states and cultures of Africa during this period second, the increasing involvement of Africa in external trade--with major but unforeseen consequences for the whole world. In North Africa, we see the Ottomans conquer Egypt. South of the Sahara, some of the larger, older states collapse, and new power bases emerge. Traditional religions continue to coexist with both Christianity (suffering setbacks) and Islam (in the ascendancy). Along the coast, particularly of West Africa, Europeans establish a trading network which, with the development of New World plantation agriculture, becomes the focus of the international slave trade. The immediate consequences of this trade for Africa are explored, and it is argued that the long-term global consequences include the foundation of the present world-economy with all its built-in inequalities.
