This volume continues where Volumes I and II left off, but, unlike
these, it is organised according to key issues that cut across
nationalities, regions and generations. The concluding essay
synthesises the various interdisciplinary approaches that the book
presents.
This is the third volume in the groundbreaking study The Notre Dame
History of Hispanic Catholics in the U.S., continues the historical
investigation of the first two volumes, spanning the years 1965 to
the present. Unlike the two preceding volumes, whose articles are
arranged in terms of national origin (Mexican, Cuban, Puerto
Rican), the 11 essays in Hispanic Catholic Culture in the U.S. are
organized according to key issues that cut across nationalities,
regions, and generations.
Three leading scholars of Latino religious studies team up in this
edited collection to present original meditations and reflections
on Our Lady of Guadalupe, one of the most prominent religious
images of the western hemisphere. Newest in the Celebrating Faith
series, this book considers the meaning behind the symbol of
Guadalupe. Because of the wide array of contributors, the figure of
Guadalupe is examined from a variety of viewpoints: Catholic and
Protestant, male and female, scholarly and liturgical. Written in a
scholarly, yet spiritual manner, this analysis of Guadalupe
recognizes her dual roles of maternal figure and inspiring
evangelizer. Contributors discuss the history of Guadalupe and
analyze how to carry out her message and teachings in contemporary
society. The Treasure of Guadalupe is ideally suited to courses in
Latino religious and cultural studies, and adds important
contributions to the ongoing dialogue of Our Lady of Guadalupe.
