Censura, libros e inquisición en el Perú colonial, 1570-1754

Se intenta ofrecer una nueva interpretación acerca de la acción de la Inquisición y la difusión de los libros en la colonia, mediante el estudio de un aspecto central de las actividades del Tribunal: la censura. --

Visualizing Sensuous Suffering and Affective Pain in Early Modern Europe and the Spanish Americas
Visualizing Sensuous Suffering and Affective Pain in Early Modern Europe and the Spanish Americas is a trans-cultural collection of studies on visual treatments of the phenomena of suffering and pain in early modern culture. Ranging geographically from Italy, Spain, and the Low Countries to Chile, Mexico, and the Philippines and chronologically from the fourteenth to the eighteenth centuries, these studies variously consider pain and suffering as somatic, emotional, and psychological experiences. From examination of bodies shown victimized by brutal public torture to the sublimation of physical suffering conveyed through the incised lines of Counter-Reformation engravings, the authors consider depictions of pain and suffering as conduits to the divine or as guides to social behaviour; indeed, often the two functions overlap.
La fisonomía del libro medieval y moderno: entre la funcionalidad, la estética y la información
Comprender el libro antiguo difícilmente será posible si atendemos solo a su contenido textual. En los siglos medievales y modernos la fisonomía de los libros tuvo un papel crítico en el modo en que eran producidos y consumidos estos materiales. La elección de una tipografía frente a otra en la composición del texto, la presencia, o no, de ilustraciones (y su mayor o menor relación con el contenido, así como su valor estético), o la elección de un determinado formato, entre otros tantos aspectos, eran muchas veces decisiones meditadas por sus creadores o costeadores, e implicaban revestir al libro con unos valores nuevos que lo diferenciaban. Determinar el alcance y originalidad d...
Corporate Jurisdiction, Academic Heresy, and Fraternal Correction at the University of Paris, 1200-1400
In Corporate Jurisdiction, Academic Heresy, and Fraternal Correction at the University of Paris, 1200-1400, Gregory S. Moule explains how the theological faculty acquired independent jurisdiction over cases of academic heresy among its membership. He convincingly demonstrates that the faculty's jurisdiction and procedures were modelled on the pattern of a bishop and his cathedral canons. Gregory S. Moule's analysis of Pierre D'Ailly's Apologia confirms the faculty's jurisdiction and establishes that the censures of Denis Foulechat and John of Monteson were instances of judicial rather than fraternal correction. Medieval discussions of Judas Iscariot further clarify fraternal correction's role in the process of censure. Canon law, corporate theory, scholastic theology, and biblical commentary are employed to produce a wide-ranging, original, and thought-provoking study.
Immaculate Conceptions
Immaculate Conceptions investigates the religious imagination - sacred truth communicated through contingent and contextually determined theological propositions - as deployed in early modern Spanish textual and visual representations of the Virgin of the Immaculate Conception.
The Catholic Church and the Dutch Bible
In The Catholic Church and the Bible: From the Council of Trent to the Jansenist Controversy (1564–1733), Els Agten studies the impact of Jansenism and anti–Jansenism on the ideas regarding vernacular Bible reading and Bible production in the Low Countries in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries. The book provides a review of book censorship during this time. Furthermore, it analyses the ideas and the writings of ten protagonists, including theologians, Bible translators, ecclesiastical authorities and representatives of Port-Royal. In particular, the author demonstrates how, even as their opponents took a more cautious position, the Jansenists encouraged the laity, including women and children, to read the Bible without any restrictions.
