Historia De La Conquista De Am – (Spanish)
$19.99
Jose Luis Rivera Pagan en su libro Historia de la conquista de America Evangelizacion y violencia nos describe como este libro se concibio en medio de los intensos debates sobre el quinto centenario del “descubrimiento de America”. Esos debates estimularon y fertilizaron la investigacion historica sobre los pueblos americanos. Tambien propicio la publicacion de grandes textos relativos al descubrimiento y la conquista, algunos ineditos durante varios siglos.
El libro se divide en tres partes. La primera –Descubrimiento, conquista y evangelizacion– relata los hechos desde una perspectiva critica, ante la cual se desvela el vinculo intimo entre el descubrimiento y la conquista, como una toma de posesion de tierras y personas, legitimada por conceptos, imagenes y simbolos religiosos. La segunda –Libertad y servidumbre en la conquista de America– analiza los elementos centrales de la gran porfia teorica de la conquista: la licitud de la abrogacion de la autonomia de los pueblos aborigenes y los sistemas de trabajo forzoso –esclavitud y encomienda– que se les impuso, tanto a ellos como a las comunidades africanas que se importaban en gran numero, como seres desprovistos de libertad politica y autonomia personal. La tercera –Hacia una critica teologica de la conquista– intenta desarrollar justamente lo que su titulo sugiere: una evaluacion no panegirica de la conquista a la luz de los conceptos, imagenes y simbolos evangelicos que ella misma enarbolo como su paradigma de legitimidad.
History of the conquest of America
Jose Luis Rivera Pagan in his book, The Conquest of America: Evangelization and violence, describes how this book was conceived in the midst of the intense debates on the fifth centenary of the “discovery of America”. These debates stimulated and fertilized historical research on the American peoples. It also encouraged the publication of the great texts relating to the discovery and conquest, some of which had remained unpublished for several centuries.
The book is divided into three parts. The first – “Discovery, Conquest and Evangelization”- relates the facts from a critical perspective, revealing the intimate link between discovery and conquest, as a takeover of land and people, legitimized by religious concepts, images and symbols. The second – “Freedom and servitude in the conquest of America”- analyzes the central elements of the great theoretical challenge of the conquest: the lawfulness of the abrogation of the autonom

What It Means To Be Protestant
$22.99These days many evangelicals are exploring the more sacramental, liturgical, and historically-conscious church traditions, including Roman Catholicism and Eastern Orthodoxy. This hunger for historical rootedness is a welcome phenomenon–but unfortunately, many assume that this need can only be met outside of Protestant contexts.
In What it Means to Be Protestant, Gavin Ortlund draws from both his scholarly work in church history and his personal experience in ecumenical engagement to offer a powerful defense of the Protestant tradition. Retrieving classical Protestant texts and arguments, he exposes how many of the contemporary objections leveled against Protestants are rooted in caricature. Ultimately, he shows that historic Protestantism offers the best pathway to catholicity and historical rootedness for Christians today.
In his characteristically charitable and irenic style, Ortlund demonstrates that the 16th century Reformation represented a genuine renewal of the gospel. This does not entail that Protestantism is without faults. But because it is built upon the principle of semper reformanda (always reforming), Protestantism is capable of reforming itself according to Scripture as the ultimate authority. This scholarly and yet accessible book breaks new ground in ecumenical theology and will be a staple text in the field for many years to come.
