Category : Religion
Languages : es
Pages : 144
Book Description
Francesco Forgione, desde niño ha tenido visiones de la Virgen María, Jesús y también del Diablo. Todo ello forja en él el deseo de llegar a ser sacerdote. Tras entrar en la orden de los Capuchinos con el nombre de Pío de Pietralcina, se evidencian en él unos poderes para lo que no hay explicación científica: sana enfermos, conoce el nombre y los problemas de desconocidos a quienes predice el futuro... Cuando en 1918 le aparecen estigmas en manos y pies, sus devotos seguidores se multiplican, provoca que el Vaticano lo acuse de embaucador. Aunque no se le permite ejercer como sacerdote, la gente sigue creyendo en sus milagros. Poco antes de su muerte en 1968, la Iglesia reconoce una obra que lo llevará a ser santificado en 2002 por Juan Pablo II, el mismo a quien décadas atrás, cuando sólo era Karol Wojtyla, el Padre Pío le predijo que llegaría a ser Papa.

The Spacious Word
Author: Ricardo Padrón
Publisher: University of Chicago Press
ISBN: 9780226644332
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 318
Book Description
The Spacious Word explores the history of Iberian expansion into the Americas as seen through maps and cartographic literature, and considers the relationship between early Spanish ideas of the world and the origins of European colonialism. Spanish mapmakers and writers, as Padrón shows, clung to a much older idea of space that was based on the itineraries of travel narratives and medieval navigational techniques. Padrón contends too that maps and geographic writings heavily influenced the Spanish imperial imagination. During the early modern period, the idea of "America" was still something being invented in the minds of Europeans. Maps of the New World, letters from explorers of indigenous civilizations, and poems dramatizing the conquest of distant lands, then, helped Spain to redefine itself both geographically and imaginatively as an Atlantic and even global empire. In turn, such literature had a profound influence on Spanish ideas of nationhood, most significantly its own. Elegantly conceived and meticulously researched, The Spacious Word will be of enormous interest to historians of Spain, early modern literature, and cartography.

Food Provisioning in Complex Societies
Author: Levent Atici
Publisher: University Press of Colorado
ISBN: 1646422562
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 216
Book Description
Through creative combinations of ethnohistoric evidence, iconography, and contextual analysis of faunal remains, this work offers new insight into the mechanisms involved in food provisioning for complex societies. Contributors combine zooarchaeological and historical data from global case studies to analyze patterns in centralization and bureaucratic control, asymmetrical access and inequalities, and production-distribution-consumption dynamics of urban food provisioning and animal management. Taking a global perspective and including both prehistoric and historic case studies, the chapters in the volume reflect some of the current best practices in the zooarchaeology of complex societies. Embedding faunal evidence within a broader anthropological explanatory framework and integrating archaeological contexts, historic texts, iconography, and ethnohistorical sources, the book discerns myriad ways that animals are key contributors to, and cocreators of, complex societies in all periods and all places. Chapters cover the diverse sociopolitical and economic roles wild animals played in Bronze Age Turkey; the production and consumption of animal products in medieval Ireland; the importance of belief systems, politics, and cosmologies in Shang Dynasty animal provisioning in the Yellow River Valley; the significance of external trade routes in the kingdom of Aksum (modern Sudan); hunting and animal husbandry at El Zotz; animal economies from two Mississippian period sites; and more. Food Provisioning in Complex Societies provides an optimistic roadmap and heuristic tools to explore the diverse, resilient, and contingent processes involved in food provisioning. The book represents a novel and productive way forward for understanding the unique, yet predictably structured, provisioning systems that emerged in the context of complex societies in all parts of the world. It will be of interest to zooarchaeologists and archaeologists alike. Contributors: Joaquin Arroyo-Cabrales, Fiona Beglane, Roderick Campbell, Kathryn Grossman, Patricia Martinez-Lira, Jacqueline S. Meier, Sarah E. Newman, Terry O'Connor, Tanya M. Peres, Gypsy C. Price, Elizabeth J. Reitz, Kim Shelton, Marcus Winter, Helina S. Woldekiros
