At its apogee, it stretched from the Castilian plateau to the high peaks of the Andes; from the cosmopolitan cities of Seville, Naples, or Mexico City to Santa Fe and San Francisco; from Brussels to Buenos Aires and from Milan to Manila.

How to Recognize Baroque Art
Baroque art began in the early seventeenth century as the official artistic expression of Catholicism, a role to which its massive scale and swirling forms were perfectly suited. Though it later spread from papal Rome and underwent many national variations, it always retained its grandeur. Its extravagance is analyzed in this book in terms of a well-reasoned system that covers the three important Baroque modes--architecture, painting, and sculpture -- Publisher.
Theology of Christian Marriage
Marriage is a foundering institution in the modern world, and the pressures that have eroded its cultural supports have had a severely erosive effect upon married life within the Christian community as well.
