Catholicism and Citizenship

The beginning of the twenty-first century has provided abundant evidence of the necessity to reexamine the relationship between Catholicism and the modern, global world. This book tries to proceed on this path with a focus on the meaning, legacy, and reception in today’s world of the ecclesiology of Vatican II, starting with Gaudium et Spes: “This council exhorts Christians, as citizens of two cities, to strive to discharge their earthly duties conscientiously and in response to the Gospel spirit.” Catholicism and Citizenship is a call for a rediscovery of the moral and political imagination of Vatican II for the Church and the world of our time.

AN EXTRA-ORDINARY DISTINCTIVENESS

We live in societies that hunger and thirst for spirituality. Today we are witnessing the resurgence of the human being's search to give value and meaning to one's own life, and a sign of this is the demand to find spaces where to cultivate interiority, the taste for spirituality. The paths offered are very diverse. This work reflects on the lay spirituality proposed by Pedro Poveda. Some itineraries are offered in order to live the faith today in present-day societies and to be credible and audacious witnesses of the Gospel. Poveda proposes a way of being, a way of being present and committing oneself that makes visible, in daily life, the extra-ordinary distinctiveness of those who walk in the footsteps of the Risen Lord.

Un movimiento devocional nacido en Francia que arraigó en España y desde aquí se difundió por medio mundo, así podría resumirse el asunto de esta obra, que supone, de entrada, una indagación acerca de las transferencias culturales de matriz religiosa entre España y Francia, en los años 20 y 30 del pasado siglo.

American Catholicism Transformed

Situating the church within the context of post-World War II globalization and the Cold War, American Catholicism Transformed draws on previously untapped archival sources to provide deep background to developments within the American Catholic Church in relationship to American society at large. Shaped by anti-communist sentiment and responsive to American cultural trends, the Catholic community adopted "strategies of domestic containment," stressing the close unity between the Church and the "American way of life." A focus on the unchanging character of God's law as expressed in social hierarchies of authority, race, and gender provided a public visage of unity and uniformity. However, the ...

Por qué un libro de fuentes?... ¿por qué es útil su lectura?... ¿por qué acaba de publicarse?...; con estas breves impresiones pretendo contestar a estos interrogantes. Existen varias biografías sobre el fundador del Opus Dei, el beato Josemaría Escrivá, pero no una historia seleccionada que permita analizar en el tiempo -escaso para una institución de la Iglesia católica proyectada por Dios hasta el final de los tiempos- cómo cobró forma una semilla o un camino de santidad para gente corriente junto con su trayectoria jurídica, hasta concluir el 28 de noviembre de 1982 con la erección en prelatura personal.

En Sevilla y desde Sevilla

El Opus Dei -fundado por san Josemaría Escrivá en 1928- llegó a Sevilla en 1942, y desde Sevilla se extendió en esa década a otras ciudades de Andalucía Occidental, como Córdoba y Cádiz. Sevilla, salvo en Ronda, no intervino en los comienzos de otras ciudades de Andalucía Oriental, como Granada, donde el Opus Dei da también sus primeros pasos en esa misma década. Casi todos los que iniciaron esta labor en Sevilla, y muchos de los que se incorporaron al Opus Dei en esa ciudad durante esos primeros años, se trasladaron luego a diversos países de Europa e Hispanoamérica para ayudar en los primeros pasos en esas naciones.
