Paperback. Condition: New. «The Irish missionary momentum in the 19th century attests to the vitality of a Christian community whose richness and great diversity this book illustrates, with particular emphasis placed on the considerable effort made in the field of education, a privileged way for human promotion and the proclamation of the Gospel.»(Bernard Ardura, President, Pontifical Committee for Historical Sciences)«This book is a wonderful read: well researched, fascinating, clear, insightful and learned. It is an exceptional testimony of the achievements of the Irish Religious Diaspora. It is fundamental reading during a period in which our country has become a destination country, hosting so many from all parts of the globe. Although a small country on the periphery of Europe, Ireland was capable of projecting its values and culture globally through its diaspora. The Irish religious diaspora, as illustrated so deftly in this book, is a notable example of this throughout the ages. This book informs us and reminds us so well of the extraordinary efforts and tireless endeavours of the Hiberno-Roman missionaries in exporting Irish Catholic values globally over past centuries. The book is a pleasure to read.»(Patricia O'Brien, Ambassador of Ireland in Rome)Sourcing the circulation, settlement and influence of the Irish religious groups in continental Europe, the Americas, Australia and South Africa, the volume starts in Lisbon in the sixteenth century. How did Lisbon become the hub of Irish trade and the seat of the Irish Catholic Church in exile after the Reformation? Where did it move on from there in modern and contemporary times? At a time when Irish missionaries have largely returned home to a country that has often been described as «post-Catholic», this collection brings together historians and literary critics who trace the trajectories, destinies, acculturation and shifting senses of identity of Irish Catholic clerics and missionaries across the globe from the sixteenth to the twenty-first centuries. Studies of postwar Europe, Latin America and South Africa show the modern expression of the Irish Catholic missionary movement, as well as some of the same spiritual and ethical preoccupations that are captured in the literary works of some of the most famous French, Irish and Irish-American authors.…

Hardback. Condition: New. A new portrait of the Catholic church during apartheid, told through the life of Cardinal Owen McCann.Drawing on newly opened Vatican archives and Owen McCann's personal archives in Cape Town, Alexandra Maclennan offers the first full biography of Cardinal Owen McCann (1907-1994), a pivotal yet often overlooked figure in twentieth-century South African history. Born in a mixed-ethnicity, working-class neighborhood of Cape Town and educated by Irish religious orders, McCann rose to become South Africa's first cardinal and a key moral voice during the long years of apartheid.Maclennan traces how McCann's formation in Catholic Social Teaching shaped his quiet but persistent engagement with South Africa's racial crisis. As bishop, he lobbied government officials against apartheid laws, used the official Catholic newspaper The Southern Cross to challenge segregation, and defended non-European communities affected by discriminatory legislation. At the same time, newly revealed Vatican diplomatic correspondence shows how the Holy See responded to apartheid and what instructions they gave to the Apostolic Delegate, complicating assumptions about Catholic silence or complicity.Spanning McCann's life from the interwar years through Vatican II and the collapse of apartheid, Cardinal Owen McCann illuminates the Catholic Church's evolving self-understanding amid decolonization, political authoritarianism, and moral crisis-and restores a forgotten cardinal to his place in history.…
