"The 500th anniversary of the arrival of Christopher Columbus in America has given rise to a host of celebrations and events in both Europe and America. At the same time, an increasing outcry is being heard from the native Americans who have borne the brunt of five hundred years of Christian "civilization."" "The Church in Latin America has been involved in both the process of conquest and the process of resistance to an extent unmatched on any other continent. The debates initiated by Bartolome de Las Casas about the dignity and personhood of the Indians are as relevant today as they were in the sixteenth century. As Enrique Dussel writes in his General Introduction: "Every historical event is unrepeatable, unique ... Every account supposes an 'interpretation,' whether conscious or not, willed or involuntary. So every history of the Church supposes a certain way of handling essential facts ... In Latin America we are trying to produce a history of the Church on the basis of a particular experience we have of the institutional community founded by Jesus Christ." The mission of the Church is essentially that of its founder: "to bring good news to the poor," and this is a basic criterion of the contributors to this volume." "Produced under the aegis of CEHILA, the Commission for the Study of Church History in Latin America, this work draws on the experience of many of the contributors in their research for CEHILA's eleven-volume General History of the Church in Latin America, in the process of publication in Spanish. This volume is designed to be read by those with little or no knowledge of this fascinating, often appalling, often inspiring, chapter of church history." "This is scientific history, written by leading scholars from all areas of Latin America. But it is also history "from the underside of history." Without distorting events, it presents the story of the conquered peoples and the increasingly impoverished majorities." "The first of three parts provides a chronological survey on a continent-wide scale: the second a regional survey; the third covers some special subjects. The volume concludes with a comprehensive account of sources and bibliography which will prove invaluable to students for years to come."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.

Each volume addresses major issues in dialogue with wider public discourses, regularly engaging perspectives from the religions of the world. For volumes of substance, breadth and insight, Concilium provides a most impressive response to the most important issues in theology today." Jeannine Hill Fletcher, Fordham University

This extraordinary book encompasses the time period from the first Christian evangelists' arrival in Latin America to the dictators of the late twentieth century. With unsurpassed knowledge of Latin American history, John Lynch sets out to explore the reception of Christianity by native peoples and how it influenced their social and religious lives as the centuries passed. As attentive to modern times as to the colonial period, Lynch also explores the extent to which Indian religion and ancestral ways survived within the new Christian culture.The book follows the development of religious culture over time by focusing on peak periods of change: the response of religion to the Enlightenment, the emergence of the Church from the wars of independence, the Romanization of Latin American religion as the papacy overtook the Spanish crown in effective control of the Church, the growing challenge of liberalism and the secular state, and in the twentieth century, military dictators' assaults on human rights. Throughout the narrative, Lynch develops a number of special themes and topics. Among these are the Spanish struggle for justice for Indians, the Church's position on slavery, the concept of popular religion as distinct from official religion, and the development of liberation theology.

By 2025, Latin America's population of observant Christians will be the largest in the world. Nonetheless, studies examining the exponential growth of global Christianity tend to overlook this region, focusing instead on Africa and Asia. Research on Christianity in Latin America provides a core point of departure for understanding the growth and development of Christianity in the "Global South." In The Oxford Handbook of Latin American Christianity an interdisciplinary contingent of scholars examines Latin American Christianity in all of its manifestations from the colonial to the contemporary period. The essays here provide an accessible background to understanding Christianity in Latin America. Spanning the era from indigenous and African-descendant people's conversion to and transformation of Catholicism during the colonial period through the advent of Liberation Theology in the 1960s and conversion to Pentecostalism and Charismatic Catholicism, The Oxford Handbook of Latin American Christianity is the most complete introduction to the history and trajectory of this important area of modern Christianity.

No book in any language equals The Church, Dictatorships, and Democracy in Latin America for its comparative breadth. Historians, social scientists, and general readers will cull from it the conditions needed for the church to play a positive and creative role in furthering human rights and democracy. -John A. Coleman, SJ Loyola Marymount University Jeffrey Klaiber's book offers a wonderfully informative history of the Church's role in Latin American struggles to defend human rights and achieve democracy. Anyone who has followed with concern and interest these recent struggles-from military dictatorships in Brazil and Chile, through the violent conflicts in Central America, to the most recent struggles in Chiapas, Mexico-will find this remarkably comprehensive study of eleven different nations an invaluable text. -Arthur F. McGovern, SJ University of Detroit This volume provides readers with the first comprehensive view of the church during a defining period of Latin American history. This is an invaluable study by a longtime and astute observer. -Edward L.
