Architectural Actions on the Religious Heritage after Vatican II
This book serves to shed some light on several controversial questions about contemporary interventions on religious heritage buildings. In the mid-1960s, a process of renewal of Catholic churches began, which sought to respond to the liturgical modifications implemented during the Vatican II (1962-65). Fifty years later, this process continues to be problematic in buildings with a high heritage or historical value. From an operational point of view, it is stimulating to revisit the most relevant architectures at the international level, those high-impact works that were generated thanks to an open and serene dialogue between principals, architects, users, artists and patrimonial leaders. Thus, it is essential to know the criteria that have supported interventions, whether legal (both ecclesiastical and civil), architectural, artistic, liturgical or pastoral. In this sense, what references could be used at a time like ours? How can we reform what has already been reformed?
Presiciones sobre arquitectura religiosa contemporanea
El lector tiene en sus manos una pequen~a coleccio ́n de textos acade ́micos que intentan combinar el rigor cienti ́fico con el intere ́s de un arti ́culo de divulgacio ́n. Todos ellos han sido publicados recientemente en journals o en actas de congresos especializados, o al menos, esta ́n en proceso de edicio ́n. Su hilo conductor es la arquitectura religiosa contempora ́nea. La palabra "Precisiones" que encabeza el ti ́tulo tiene un evidente sabor corbusieriano, pero tambie ́n latinoamericano. Si los textos de la primera mitad del libro giran en torno a diversos aspectos de la obra de Jeanneret —la dimensio ́n cosmolo ́gica de la arquitectura, su fascinacio ́n por el oculti...
La urbanística del culto
Por un lado, la compleja regulación, a nivel estatal, autonómico y local, en materia urbanística, unida a las en ocasiones problemáticas actuaciones administrativas por parte de los entes locales, hacen necesaria una clarificación que permita salvaguardar adecuadamente los legítimos derechos e intereses de la Iglesia en esta materia; por otro lado, también a nivel intraeclesial resulta conveniente realizar, desde planteamientos litúgicos y pastorales, una redefinición de los criterios a seguir en relación a la edificación de templos nuevos, y en otras cuestiones igualmente problemáticas.
Escritos sobre arquitectura religiosa contemporanea
Este libro es una recopilación de escritos dedicados a la arquitectura religiosa contemporánea, es decir, la producida en el entorno de los últimos cien años. Todos ellos han sido publicados previamente y han sido revisados para la presente edición. Los textos que aquí se presentan comparten una misma idea de fondo: la necesidad de encontrar una fundamentación sólida para poder explicar y construir las iglesias de nuestros días. En efecto. Uno de los problemas más delicados que han afrontar la arquitectura religiosa occidental en el arranque de este nuevo milenio es la identidad del edificio de culto cristiano. Las experiencias globalizadoras reclaman, de las personas y de las inst...
Between Concept and Identity
The identity of places of worship is one of the most difficult problems faced by religious architecture at the start of this new millennium. Contemporary globalising experiences demand, peremptorily, a reflection, both conceptual and situational, on the origin of objects, people and institutions. Nevertheless, the chance of these migration flows annihilating already-existing religious identities is perceived as a problem. This problem is directly linked to the survival of architecture as a system carrying a material representation of the divine and constituting a self-reference system for the community of believers. Therefore, it is important to define the extent to which the new religious a...
The Oxford Handbook of Religious Space
"How do we understand religious spaces? What is their role or function within specific religious traditions or with respect to religious experience? This handbook brings together thirty-seven authors addressing these questions, using a range of methods to analyze specific spaces or types of spaces around the world and across time. Their methods are grounded in many disciplines: religious studies and religion, anthropology, archaeology, architectural history and architecture, cultural and religious history, sociology, gender and women's studies, geography, and political science, resulting in a distinctly interdisciplinary collection. These essays are snapshots, each offering a specific way to...
A Living Presence, Proceedings of the Symposium
The symposium was presented by the Partnership for Catholic Sacred Architecture, a collaborative effort between the schools of architecture at The Catholic University of America and the University of Notre Dame. It was held at The Catholic University of America (CUA) School of Architecture and Planning on April 30 and May 1, 2010. The symposium was the vision of Professor Martin, whose desire was that these great universities would work together for the good of the Church in the important mission of creating beautiful sacred architecture.
Regenerating Cultural Religious Heritage
This book introduces important reflections on understanding the meaning of cultural-religious heritage in an international context and their relationship with issues of sustainability at the local community level. Through a holistic approach, the book charts new courses in analyzing different cultural policies and methods for preserving and enhancing cultural heritage. Stemming from an intercultural seminar promoted by the International Scientific Committee Places of Religion and Ritual (ICOMOS PRERICO) under the theme of “Reuse and regenerations of cultural-religious heritage in the world: Comparison among cultures,” the book examines the scientific diplomacy and cultural strategies pro...

Este libro presenta veinticuatro espacios para el culto realizados en España durante los primeros años del siglo XXI. Durante las dos últimas décadas, la arquitectura religiosa contemporánea ha gozado de una particular atención en nuestro país.

Entre las obras seleccionadas para este volumen se en 'Uentran veintidós iglesias católicas, una iglesia evangélica y otra levemente interconfesional. Es difícil...
