This book tracks New Spain's mendicant orders past their so-called golden age of missions into the ensuing centuries and demonstrates that they had equally crucial roles in what Melvin terms the "spiritual consolidation" of cities. Beginning in the late sixteenth century, cities became home to the majority of friars and to the orders' wealthiest houses, and mendicants became deeply embedded in urban social and cultural life. Friars ministered to urban residents of all races and social standings and engaged in traditional mendicant activities, serving as preachers, confessors, spiritual directors, alms collectors, educators, scholars, and sponsors of charitable works. Each order brought to this work a distinct identity that informed people's beliefs and shaped variations in the practice of Catholicism. Contrary to prevailing views, mendicant orders flourished during the seventeenth and early eighteenth centuries, and even the eighteenth-century reforms that ended this era were not as devastating as has been assumed.Even in the face of new institutional challenges, the demand for their services continued through the end of the colonial period, demonstrating the continued vitality of baroque piety.

Описание: Gilles li Muisit was the abbot of the Benedictine monastery of St. Martin of Tournai, a city on the north-eastern border of France. This region was a at the centre of Edward III's campaigns in Flanders at the beginning of the Hundred Years War. Le Muisit's chronicle covers events in France and Flanders from the point of view of a well informed contemporary. He kept records of important events from around 1330 onwards, and when he went blind in 1345, he occupied his time by writing up these notes, which were read to him. He then dictated the text to a scribe. An operation for cataracts restored his sight in 1352, but he never managed to revise his text. It consists of a full chronicle up to 1348, and then annals after that. He is a spirited writer, and his comments on fashion (with illuminations) are often quoted; he also has a remarkable passage on how it is impossible for anyone to know what is going on in a battle (apropos of the battle of Cr cy), let alone for a historian to produced an accurate account afterwards. He uses some written records, and writes at first hand of the siege of Tournai in 1340. Much of his information comes from the distinguished guests who visited his abbey, but he is very wary about what he hears. 'What they say is partly false, partly true... if I write down things about which I may not be certain, my whole work will be in disrepute'. He is a largely realistic counterweight to the narratives of chivalrous exploits in Jean le Bel and Froissart, who cover the same place and period. And his voice speaks not for the nobility, for whom war represented glory and profit, but for the defenceless and weak who were the main sufferers.

Описание: Ever since the time of Francis of Assisi, a commitment to voluntary poverty has been a controversial aspect of religious life. This volume explores the interaction between poverty and religious devotion in the mendicant orders between the thirteenth and fifteenth centuries. While poverty has often been perceived more as a Franciscan than as a Dominican emphasis, this volume considers its role within a broader movement of evangelical renewal associated with the mendicant transformation of religious life. At a time of increased economic prosperity, reformers within the Church sought new ways of encouraging identification with the person of Christ. This volume considers the paradoxical tension between voluntary poverty as a way of emulating Christ and involuntary poverty as situation demanding a response from those with the means to help the poor. Drawing on history, literature and visual arts, it explores how the mendicant orders continued to transform religious life into the time of the renaissance. The papers in this volume are organised under three headings, prefaced with an introductory essay by the editors: Poverty and the Rule of Francis, exploring the interpretation of poverty in the Franciscan Order; Devotional Cultures, considering aspects of devotional life fostered by mendicant religious communities, Franciscan, Augustinian and Dominican; Preaching Poverty, on the way poverty was promoted and practiced within the Dominican Order in the later Middle Ages and Renaissance.
