Enel octavocentenario de lamuerte de Francisco de Asís,elhistoriador Alessandro Barberoreescribe lavida delcélebre santoentodasucomplejidad.¿Quién fue Francisco de Asís? En 2026 se cumplen 800 años de la muerte de san Francisco. Aunque creemos conocerlo, la realidad pocas veces se corresponde con lo que nos han contado. En esta nueva biografia, el gran historiador medieval Alessandro Barbero desentierra los distintos relatos de la vida del diacono para dar forma a un retrato completo de uno de los santos mas populares de la Iglesia catolica.Las biografias mas antiguas de Francisco vinieron de la pluma de frailes que lo habian conocido de primera mano. Sin embargo, habia discrepancias constantes entre los testimonios. Era tal el contraste entre las versiones que, cuarenta años despues de su muerte, la Orden tomo la decision de destruirlas y sustituirlas por la Legenda Maior, escrita por Buenaventura de Bagnoregio. No querian recordar que Francisco habia sido un hombre lleno de contradicciones, que habia experimentado la decepcion y la derrota, sino mostrar a un santo libre de dudas y amarguras, semejante a Cristo.Pasados los siglos, los textos ocultos empezaron a resurgir gracias a afortunados hallazgos y revelaron a un Francisco muy distinto. No el santo alegre que hablaba con los pajarillos, representado en los frescos de Giotto en Asis. Tampoco el santo que amansaba a los lobos y conversaba amistosamente con los musulmanes, precursor del ecologismo, del pacifismo y del ecumenismo. El Francisco que emerge del recuerdo de sus discipulos es un hombre duro y atormentado, dulce a veces, pero tambien aspero. Estos testimonios no retratan una sola version de Francisco, porque cada uno de aquellos autores lo recordaba a su manera. Asi pues, ¿quien fue realmente este hombre extraordinario? Con el rigor del historiador y el pulso del gran narrador, en este libro Alessandro Barbero se propone buscar las respuestas.

Un evocador estudio sobre el imaginario que rodea a las nubes en la historia de la mística medieval y su influencia en el arte moderno.Mirar las nubes. Imaginar. ¿Quién no ha visto formarse en ellas extrañas figuras, rostros o animales monstruosos que se van deshaciendo para generar otras formas nuevas? Las nubes han sido siempre un soporte elemental, como decia Andre Breton, que ha estimulado la imaginacion. En la Edad Media formaban parte de las imagenes negativas, junto a las tinieblas o la noche, porque impedian ver a Dios; eran una invisibilidad que expresaba la supraesencialidad divina mas alla de toda afirmacion reductiva. En la modernidad, las nubes, esas maravillosas nubes en el verso de Baudelaire, han continuado incitando nuestras facultades visionarias y creando imagenes fantasticas, segun puede apreciarse en textos como el de Thomas de Quincey. Los estudios sobre ellas en el paisajismo de los siglos XIX y XX resultan fascinantes, tanto como en los analisis meteorologicos; manchas que encontramos en la historia del arte, desde las obras de Meister Francke o Andrea Mantegna en el siglo XV, hasta las de Johann Georg von Dillis, Eugene Boudin o Andre Kertesz.

Explore the Enscripturation of Christian Identity Across History Every time we read the Bible, it invites us to find ourselves within its pages. When we do so, we do more than interpret ScriptureScripture interprets us. And it interprets us by naming us as we stand before the crucified and risen Lord.In Clothed in the Word, David Ney combines historical analysis and biblical hermeneutics to explore the ways in which Christians throughout church history have found themselves embodied or "enscripturated" in the stories of the Bible.Through meticulous examination of pivotal biblical figures, this scholarly work reveals how people of faith across centuries have applied scriptural names and identities to themselves and their communities. Extending beyond individual identification, this practice creates a participatory experience that encompasses entire faith communities and speaks to their standing before God and in Christ.As the text of Scripture and the reader interact with one another, many Christians throughout history have identified with the experiences of biblical figures, clothing themselves with their names and roles as a way of understanding and living out their faith.Clothed in the Word explores numerous examples like these from throughout Christian history: In the New Testament, John the Baptist is identified with Elijah the prophet. In ancient Christianity, believers often portrayed themselves as Paul the athlete who endured to the end, as they, too, persevered under trial. In the Middle Ages, Hildegard of Bingen saw herself as the Blessed Virgin Mary, not merely identifying with her but literally living out her life as a consecrated virgin. During the Reformation, several figures viewed themselves as Abel, appealing to God on behalf of their enemies, whom they identified as Cain. In recent years, Harriet Tubman famously understood herself to be a Moses figure commissioned by God to lead her people to a Promised Land. Perfect for church history courses, seminary education, and advanced undergraduate religious studies, this work offers professors, students, and interested lay readers perceptive insights on how Scripture continues to shape Christian identity across time and culture.Through this study of how the saints of history have enscripturated the saints of Scripture, Ney invites us to interpret our own lives in light of the stories of Scripture, thus clothing ourselves in the garments of the Word and discovering anew that the Bible is the Book of Life.

Edwards presents a creative framework for understanding Christs work on the cross by taking you on a poetic journey through the many rooms of a house. With each chapter presenting a new room that uniquely explains how the cross transforms discipleship, At Home with God invites you to embrace the multidimensional beauty of Christs love.Thejourney begins at the front door, where you are welcomed into a dwelling shaped by grace.
