Brossura. Condition: new. Alessandria, 2024; br., pp. 176, cm 15x21.(La Linea d'Ombra Nuova Serie. Sezione Seconda: Narrativa. 14). Camera 817 racconta una storia d'amore tanto intensa quanto fugace, consumata in pochi giorni tra le mura di un hotel a Memphis. È qui, in occasione di una conferenza, che Liesbet e Gustav si incontrano per la prima volta: lei, aspirante storica bloccata tra lavori precari e un mondo accademico che sembra chiuderle le porte;lui, un professore affermato, marito e padre perfetto, che vive un "American dream" ormai privo di emozioni autentiche.Liesbet e Gustav si scoprono legati da una passione che sembra arrivare da un'altra dimensione, che li porta a interrogarsi su cosa davvero significhi vivere e se un legame così profondo possa essere più forte della loro stessa realtà. Capitolo dopo capitolo, seguiamo i punti di vista alternati di Gustav, uomo iperlogico che cerca di mantenere il controllo di sé, e di Liesbet, che si abbandona senza freni alla convinzione di aver finalmente trovato l'Amore.È la storia di un incontro breve, ineluttabile, e così potente che rischia di far riscrivere ai due protagonisti non solo il presente e il futuro ma, in quanto storici, anche il passato.

Buch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - 'Profiling Saints' follows and expands the papers presented at the homonym online international conference (December 2021), which focused on cultural, theological, artistic, and social aspects of models of sanctity and their importance in the modern world up to the post-revolutionary period. This volume aims thus to shed light on the cultural value of canonizations and models of sanctity as models of Christian perfection, including the role of iconography and artworks, in the broader context of modern, global Catholicism. The topics presented by the authors include veneration to, and canonization and representations of, saint theologians, missionaries, martyrs, mystics, and reformers, men and women. 'Profiling Saints' looks at modern sanctity and saints from multidisciplinary perspectives, ranging from liturgy, theology, and Church history up to history of ideas, cultural history, history of emotions, and art history, and contributes to shed light on such a complex phenomenon of Christian history in its modern developments.…

Buch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - Winner of the 2023 Desiderio Pirovano Award for Best Book in Church History During the early modern period, thousands of Jesuits across Europe wrote individual applications for appointments in the 'Indies' directly to the superior general of the Society of Jesus in Rome. Known today as litterae indipetae (from Indias petere, that is, applying for the missions in the Eastern and Western territories), these letters encompassed the most personal desires, hopes, and dreams of young Jesuits who sought to become missionaries. This book is the first English monograph on litterae indipetae and studies their style and structure, the background of their authors and the reasons behind their choices, as well as the network surrounding this practice (natural and spiritual families, procurators, confrères). Its purpose is also to capture the experiences of these individuals since lost to history by studying thousands of indipetae, in this case written mainly by Italian Jesuits at the turn of the eighteenth century. It focuses especially on the petitions aimed at East Asia, and offers in-depth analysis of cases of Jesuits whose missionary zeal for China and Japan was fulfilled--or not.…

Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. Reframes missionary history through the study of affect, embodiment, and devotion, uncovering the human experiences that shaped Catholic expansion and intercultural negotiation across the early modern globe.Catholic missions were among the most powerful engines of cultural and religious encounter in the early modern world, yet their emotional dimensions have too often been overlooked in favour of theological controversy and intellectual history. Bringing together the histories of missions, emotions, ritual, and embodied devotion, this volume offers a major new perspective on how Catholicism was experienced, communicated, and transformed across the globe.Across a series of richly interdisciplinary essays, contributors investigate how missionaries sought to move hearts as much as minds, and how emotions shaped these encounters between Catholicism and the diverse cultures it engaged. Questions of suffering, sanctity, persuasion, and identity recur throughout the volume, revealing the central role of affective experience in missionary life.Essays on Jesuit mortification, pain, and martyrdom examine how bodily discipline and emotional performance operated as markers of holiness and spiritual authority, while studies of canonisation and missionary rhetoric show how emotional narratives shaped global perceptions of sanctity and persecution. Across the collection, emotions are also traced as instruments of communication and cultural exchange, through which affective practices circulated, adapted, and acquired new meanings across early modern Mexico, Ireland, the Atlantic world, and Asia.Together, these essays illuminate the emotional foundations of Catholic reform and reveal how gestures, rituals, and sensory experience shaped missionary activity during a period of unprecedented global change.Chapter 8 is available as Open Access under the Creative Commons licence CC BY-NC-ND Reframes missionary history through the study of affect, embodiment, and devotion, uncovering the human experiences that shaped Catholic expansion and intercultural negotiation across the early modern globe.
