        As the Father Sent Me, So I Send You

        Theology and Spirituality of Priestly Apostolic Ministry

        by Ángel Cordovilla

        This work, halfway between the personal testimony and the theological reflection, is divided into three parts. The first displays the historical and cultural situation that has provoked a radical change in the way of perceiving and understanding priestly ministry. The second identifies four features that may enlighten nowadays the image and mission of the priest: the disciple, apostolic, fraternal, and secular dimensions. The third part deepens into the basic tasks of his mission –the preaching of the Gospel, the sanctification by way of the sacramental and liturgical action, and the guidance of God’s people–, without forgetting that the criterion that must guide and feed the apostolic existence is the daily practice of the ministry, the true and proper way to holiness.

        Dissident identity

        themes for a new Brazilian history

        by Edgard Leite

        In ‘Dissident identity: themes for a new Brazilian History’, Edgard Leite continues the work done in 'Predators', which addresses the Brazilian history from the other side, rescuing facts, contradictions and ideas that, over the years and because of a historiography often biased, remained forgotten. A thorough job and an arduous task which the author is not exempt, but faces; as well as facing certain tradition in historical studies. With a concise writing, the author develops his argument from the idea that, since the Copernican revolution, mankind turned to quantity over quality. It is precisely this world that will emerge from Brazil, since the arrival of Europeans will just at a time when the effects of the Copernican turning shall introduce into Europe. Another important point for understanding the history of Brazil will be the secularization of the state, which is strengthened by the Enlightenment and the French Revolution is, above all, its most acute event. Understanding the relationship between state and religion and, especially, the understanding of the concept of mind, will be central to a discussion of the values that shape - or fail to shape - a society. The book ends with the 1964 event, and the reader will wait that the author addresses in forthcoming books, the continuation of Brazilian history. Always with his provocative and powerful bias.

        Ménage à Trois

        Contes–Kurzgeschichte–Relatos

        by Manuel Giron

        Ménage à trois Es gibt Momente im Leben, die unsere Entscheidungen nachhaltig prägen. Und am Nachmittag, an dem ich meine Frau in ihrem Höschen und ohne BH mit Hachiko im Bett spielen sah, wusste ich, dass ich meinem Dasein eine Wende geben musste. Ausgehend von diesem Bild, das die Wirklichkeit viel besser beschreibt, als es viele Worte jemals tun können, beschloss ich, folgende Geschichte zu schreiben, die ich nun ausführlich erzählen werde. Bevor ich aber beginne, möchte ich noch klarstellen, dass Hachiko das Hündchen ist, das meine Frau und ich schon vor einiger Zeit zu uns genommen haben und seither mit seiner kecken Art die mütterliche und väterliche Leere in unseren Herzen gefüllt hat. Ohne ihn hätte dieses existenzielle schwarze Loch unserer ohnehin schon abgekühlten Ehe, in der gemeinsame Ziele fehlten, schon lange den Gnadenstoß gegeben. Hachiko ist nicht irgendein Hund, der so von heute auf morgen in unser Leben gekommen ist. Es ist ein sehr besonderes Wesen, das sich unsere Liebe nach und nach durch sein echtes Interesse für unsere Probleme errungen hat. Mit ihm kann man über alles Mögliche sprechen, ohne dass er je ungeduldig wird. Manchmal wedelt er mit dem Schwanz oder wackelt mit den Ohren, um zu zeigen, dass er mit dem Gesagten einverstanden ist, oder er schaut uns mit Augen voller Mitgefühl an, das ich bisher in keinem menschlichen Auge gesehen habe. Usw Hay momentos en la vida que dejan una huella duradera en nuestras decisiones. Y la tarde en que vi a mi mujer jugando con Hachiko en la cama, en bragas y sin sujetador, supe que tenía que darle un giro a mi existencia. A partir de esta imagen, que describe la realidad mucho mejor de lo que pueden hacerlo muchas palabras, decidí escribir la siguiente historia, que paso a contar con todo detalle.Antes de empezar, sin embargo, me gustaría aclarar que Hachiko es el cachorro que mi mujer y yo acogimos hace algún tiempo y que, desde entonces, ha llenado con su alegre naturaleza el vacío materno y paterno de nuestros corazones. Sin él, este agujero existencial habría dado hace tiempo el golpe de gracia a nuestro ya de por sí frío matrimonio, carente de objetivos comunes. Hachiko no es un perro cualquiera que llegó a nuestras vidas de la noche a la mañana. Es una criatura muy especial que se ha ido ganando nuestro cariño gracias a su genuino interés por nuestros problemas. Puedes hablar con él de cualquier cosa sin que se impaciente. A veces mueve la cola o las orejas para mostrar que está de acuerdo con lo que se dice, o nos mira con unos ojos llenos de una compasión que nunca he visto en ningún ojo humano. Continúa........... Il y a des moments dans la vie qui laissent une empreinte durable sur nos décisions. Et l'après-midi où j'ai vu ma femme jouer avec Hachiko sur le lit, en culotte et sans soutien-gorge, j'ai su que je devais donner un tournant à mon existence. À partir de cette image, qui décrit la réalité bien mieux que ne le pourraient de nombreuses paroles, j'ai décidé d'écrire l'histoire suivante, que je vais vous raconter en détail. Avant de commencer, cependant, j'aimerais préciser que Hachiko est le chiot que ma femme et moi avons accueilli il y a quelque temps et qui, depuis lors, a comblé le vide maternel et paternel de nos cœurs avec sa nature joyeuse. Sans lui, ce trou noir existentiel aurait depuis longtemps porté un coup fatal à notre mariage déjà froid, dépourvu d'objectifs communs. Hachiko n'est pas un chien ordinaire qui est arrivé dans nos vies du jour au lendemain. C'est une créature très spéciale qui a gagné notre affection grâce à son véritable intérêt pour nos problèmes. Vous pouvez parler de tout avec lui sans qu'il s'impatiente. Parfois, il remue la queue ou les oreilles pour montrer qu'il est d'accord avec ce qui est dit, ou il nous regarde avec des yeux emplis d'une compassion que je n'ai jamais vue dans aucun œil humain.

      • Introduction to Christian Ethics

        In the Horizon of the New Testament

        by Alberto de Mingo Kaminouchi

        More than affirming a set of doctrines, being a Christian means to get involved in the task of responding to the God of Jesus of Nazareth without reservations. By imitating his Teacher and under the guidance of the Spirit, Jesus’ followers can contribute to the rising of a new creation already here on earth. That is the only way for Christian ethics to find its meaning and fulfil its goal. This innovative handbook runs through the New Testament with an eye to three key concepts in Aristotle’s ethics: happiness, virtue, and love, in order to create a basic grammar which allows today’s reader to enter into Christian ethics.

        The Practice of Theology

        An Introduction to Theological Reflection and Its Main Figures

        by Ángel Cordovilla

        What is theology? Anyone who tries to answer this question is invited, first of all, to practice such singular science. In order to do so, she or he will have to visit the loci where theology is made, to understand the essential forms it has adopted throughout history, and to deepen into the topics its inner configuration calls for: God’s revelation, human faith, Church, Scripture, Tradition, and Magisterium.  This introduction to theological reflection is written from the conviction that theology owns a unique word that only theology can say and propose as a service both to the Church and to society.

        Santo de palo

        by Mario Salazar Montero

        Kurzinformation ISBN 978-3-9525331-1-6 Titel “Santo de palo”. Mario Salazar Montero. Novela Existe sin duda alguna gente honesta en este mundo y en esta vida; gente admirable en quien confiar las vicisitudes íntimas y las incertidumbres, gente reconocible sin necesidad de alharaca de su parte, mortales comunes y corrientes, guiados por su propia experiencia, intuición y sufrimiento. Existe también desde luego otro tipo de consejeros, siempre en busca de reconocimiento, urgidos y ansiosos por obtener una aureola de bienhechores certificados, cueste lo que cueste, carentes de escrúpulos. A algunos entre estos últimos la suerte y la vida les sonrien, encuentran cómplices y adeptos, viven y mueren apestando a santidad comprada: son los inútiles “Santos de palo”; otros, menos afortunados, reciben a tiempo un merecido. Si el lugar geográfico donde los personajes que encarnan estas dos opciones de ayuda al prójimo es un pueblo a orillas del Océano Pacífico donde viven y conviven con sus protegidos o sus sometidos, un rincón perdido en las selvas tropicales de Suramérica, empobrecido y abusado, la selva no tiene en cuenta detalles de nacionalidad a la hora de castigar a su manera una santidad falsificada. Mario Salazar Montero. Geboren in Kolumbien, Südamerika. Lebt seit vielen Jahren in der Schweiz. Schriftsteller und Ingenieur. Hat mehrere Romane und Kurzgeschichten veröffentlicht. Spanisch und Deutsch. Mehr zum Autor und seinem literarischen Werk unter www.mariosalazar.ch

        TIEMPO DE MUJERES. LITERATURA, EDAD Y ESCRITURA FEMENINA.

        by ALMELA BOIX, Margarita; GUZMÁN GARCÍA, Helena; SANFILIPPO, Marina; ZAMORANO RUEDA, Ana Isabel

        Dado el momento demográfico que vivimos, la colección de volúmenes sobre literatura y mujer, de la UNED, no podía dejar pasar la oportunidad de reflexionar sobre ese gran componente identitario que es la edad. Ésta, aunque fenómeno biológico, se interpreta socialmente y se articula en las estructuras de poder que gobiernan y definen las vidas tanto de hombres como de mujeres (y no solo en ese último tramo de la vida que tanto interés despierta últimamente). Como locus político donde se asienta lo que una mujer "debe" ser, es decir su "valor" social y cultural asociado a sus papeles de género, la edad presenta un fructífero campo de investigación para los estudios de la mujer.Los distintos capítulos del presente volumen constituyen un novedoso y original estudio y una reflexión sobre la representación literaria de las mujeres y sus edades.

        Early emotional education

        by Gloria Latorre

        The family is the first modeler of interpersonal relationships. In it all the richness of the emotional world unfolds. That is why it is key to teach our children from birth to build their own path to inner well-being, through self-knowledge and the skills to manage their emotions. This will help them from the beginning of their lives to connect with the other from empathy and compassion. “This book offers us a journey to recognize the emotions in our relationships. On each page, it offers us pauses to reflect, realize and experiment, allowing true learning. It is a companion for travelers such as parents, teachers, psychologists and for all of us who work in accompaniment ”. Jorge Genzone, President of the Gestalt Association of Buenos Aires
