El patrocinio y soporte económico hacia las casas de religiosos fue uno de los métodos mediante el cual las reinas podían demostrar su poder o reforzar su linaje. La creación o reforma de conventos, monasterios u hospitales no cumplió una función meramente piadosa por parte de su promotor, sino que además jugó un papel fundamental con respecto al control político de sus reinos. Para María de Castilla (1401-1458), reina de Aragón, el respaldo hacia ciertos cenobios fue acompañado de la difusión de la Reforma Observante. En ese sentido, el artículo estudia a la reina como benefactora del convento de Santa María de Jesús y el Hospital de Gracia, en Zaragoza, y la iglesia de Magallón, además de destacar su aptitud y manejo en la resolución de los problemas de convivencia de ciertos monasterios aragoneses, a través de las noticias aparecidas básicamente en los registros de la Real Cancillería de la reina custodiados en el ARV y ACA. Palabras clave: María de Castilla, Reino de Aragón, Reforma franciscana observante, Convento de Santa María de Jesús de Zaragoza, Hospital de Gracia de Zaragoza, Iglesia de Magallón. Abstract: Patronage and financial support for religious houses was one of the methods by which queens could demonstrate their power or reinforce their lineage. The creation or reform of convents, monasteries or hospitals did not merely fulfil a pious function on the part of their promoter, but also played a fundamental role with regard to the political control of their kingdoms. For María of Castile (1401-1458), Queen of Aragon, support for certain monasteries was accompanied by the spread of the Observant Reformation. This article studies this monarch as benefactress of the convent of Santa María de Jesús and the hospital of Gracia in Zaragoza, and the church of Magallón as well as highlighting her aptitude and management in resolving the problems of coexistence of certain Aragonese monasteries, through the news that basically appeared in the records of the Queen’s Royal Chancery kept in the Archives of the Kingdom of Valencia and the Crown of Aragon. Keywords: María of Castile, Kingdom of Aragon, Observant Franciscan Reform, Convent of Santa María de Jesús de Zaragoza, Hospital de Gracia of Zaragoza, Church of Magallón.

Starting in 1865, regulations pursuant to public hygiene issued by the Unitary Government provided for administrative and political control of the funerary practice. Specifically, they regulated the management of cemeteries and the burials, increasingly drawing the funeral rituals from the control of the Church and of Catholicism, therefore secularising death for the construction of a new political religion. Hygiene became fundamental in order to promulgate cremation as a system of preserving the integrity of the bodies, preserving the ashes as a tangible and indestructible product of body matter and as a measure to protect public health by eliminating the risk of miasmatic pollution of the air caused by the cadaveric fumes. In the early 1870s, the practice of cremation began to spread, especially in the territories of Lombardy-Veneto and Savoy, as an expression of the progressive policies of the new Italian state, antagonistic to the old Catholic religious traditions. This paper intends to highlight the key aspects of the political significance that the cremation took on during the Risorgimento period, while also illustrating the methods adopted by important authors from that time period regarding incineration techniques and cremation methods.

San Vito's modern location on the Esquiline betrays little of the importance of the church's site in the pre-modern city (fig. 1). The small church was begun under Pope Sixtus IV for the 1475 jubilee and finished two years later along what was at that time the main route between Santa Maria Maggiore and the Lateran. Modern interventions, however, and particularly the creation of the quartiere Esquilino in the late 19th c., changed the traffic patterns entirely. An attempt was made shortly thereafter to connect it with the new via Carlo Alberto by reversing the church's orientation and constructing a new façade facing this modern street. This façade, built into the original 15th-c. apse, was closed when the church was returned to its original orientation in the 1970s, and, as a result, San Vito today appears shuttered. In the ancient and mediaeval periods, by contrast, San Vito was set at a key point in Rome's eastern environs.

This paper discusses the political attitudes of Christians towards politics in Indonesia. Christians have been actively involved in the resistance movement against the Dutch colonialists, participated in establishing the country, formulated ideology and ratified the 1945 Constitution, participated in maintaining Indonesia's independence through the war of independence and played an active role in building the Indonesian nation. The state was created by God to carry out its function of creating justice, protecting and serving society. Therefore Christians are also called to participate in the creation of Peace (Welfare) in the country, because in a prosperous and peaceful country, the church can live better (Jer.29: 7).

Resumen: Escritura y heráldica se convierten en un lenguaje fundamental al servicio institucional y personal de los Borja, que desde Italia llegará también a su ciudad de origen y a sus señoríos. En Xàtiva y Gandía respectivamente se conservan las primeras inscripciones humanísticas que podemos ubicar en territorio valenciano. En ambos casos se trata de piezas vinculadas a la familia Borja y las dos se encuentran en el ámbito de las colegiatas de estas dos ciudades: en la capilla dedicada a Nuestra Señora de las Fiebres, advocación romana, cuya construcción mandó llevar a cabo en 1497 Francesc de Borja, tesorero pontificio, obispo de Teano, más tarde arzobispo de Cosenza y cardenal nombrado por Alejandro VI; y en el exterior de la colegiata de Santa María de Gandía, erigida en 1499 por Alejandro VI, a ambos lados de la puerta de los Apóstoles, construida bajo los auspicios de María Enríquez, viuda sucesivamente de Pere Lluís de Borja y Joan de Borja, hermanos, I y II duques de Gandía. La duquesa viuda reemprendió el proyecto inconcluso de la colegiata que quedará acabado, como señalan las inscripciones, en 1500, bajo su mecenazgo y el de su hijo Joan de Borja, III duque.   Palabras clave: Inscripciones humanísticas, Historia de la Iglesia, Heráldica, Alejandro VI.   Abstract: Writing and heraldry become a fundamental language to the institutional and personal service of the Borjas. They did not only used in Italy but also in their city of origin and their manors. Both in Xàtiva and Gandía we find the first humanistic inscriptions located in Valencian territory  In both cases they are pieces linked to the Borja family and the two are found in the collegiate area of these two cities: in the chapel dedicated to the Mare de Déu de les Febres, a Roman dedication, whose construction was ordered in 1497 by Francesc de Borja, pontifical treasurer, bishop of Teano, later archbishop of Cosenza and cardinal appointed by Alexander VI; and outside of the church of Santa María de Gandía, erected as collegiate in 1499 by Alejandro VI, on both sides of the door of the Apostles, built under the auspices of María Enríquez, widow successively of Pere Lluís de Borja and Joan de Borja, brothers, I and II Borja dukes of Gandía. The duchess widow resumed the unfinished project of the collegiate church that will be finished, as indicated by the inscriptions, in 1500, under his patronage and that of his son Joan, III Borja Duke.   Keywords: Heraldry, Humanistic inscription, Alexander VI, Church history

The conference between James i, some of the bishops and representatives of the puritans at Hampton Court palace in January 1604 was one of the most significant events in the political and religious history of England. But at the present time its significance is not clearly understood. The king's puritan policy did not begin or end there, but even in 1604 the conference was understood as a chance for the puritans to gain a measure of toleration or to begin a further reformation of the Church of England. As things turned out neither was the case. The classic accounts of Gardiner and Usher assumed that the conference was a failure for the puritan cause, but in 1961 Mark Curtis, in a widely accepted article, claimed that the king was more sympathetic to the puritans than Gardiner and Usher had allowed. Professor Curtis analysed the creation of the proclamation of October 1603 which announced the conference and claimed that its genesis showed a measure of serious criticism of the Established Church which has never been acknowledged by historians. He pointed out the episcopal bias of the official account of the conference, William Barlow's The Summe and Substance of the Conference… at Hampton Court, and noted the importance of what he felt was a neglected source, an ‘Anonymous Account’, which he believed showed marked differences between the king and the bishops, and emphasised the common ground between the king and the puritans. By considering the decisions made at the conference - whether they were put into effect or not - Professor Curtis was convinced that the conference itself was a puritan success in which the king made important concessions to them.

This chapter traces the long history of the rival confessional communities in Ireland that cohabited in the cities, which provides a key to understanding urban culture. It underlines the contrast between the non-existent legal status of the Catholic Church and the exclusive constitutional position of the established Church of Ireland. The eighteenth-century Catholic Church continued to function both in Dublin and the southern cities. But deprived of the patronage of a sympathetic gentry, the Church as an organization was drastically weakened after the Jacobite defeat. The chapter then presents the Catholic Church's organizational recovery and the creation of a new Catholic politics, urban and lay in character. It details the growth of functioning parishes of the Church of Ireland built in Dublin between the 1660s and 1800s. The chapter then turns to discuss the Church of Ireland's visible challenge in artisan districts: the arrival of a string of Methodist preachers, and investigates its immediate impact in Dublin. Ultimately, the chapter unveils the political power of Presbyterians in Dublin, and it analyzes the significance of Dublin in the emergence of the reformist tendency in Presbyterianism.

Tradicionalmente la historiografía ha considerado que las Cortes de Monzón de 1289 fueron las primeras Generales de la Corona de Aragón y que las ordenaciones allí aprobadas afectaron de manera común cuando menos a catalanes y aragoneses. En el presente artículo se presentan dos novedades con respecto a dicha interpretación. Por un lado, indicamos que con anterioridad, ya en época de Jaime I, hubo otras asambleas en que se congregaron miembros de los estamentos aragoneses, valencianos, catalanes y mallorquines, aunque ciertamente estas no poseían las características que posteriormente definieron las Cortes Generales de la Corona de Aragón. Por otro lado, mostramos que las constituciones aprobadas en Monzón en 1289 únicamente afectaron a Cataluña y Mallorca, mientras que las negociaciones político-fiscales con las comunidades de Aragón y Valencia se pospusieron para dos Cortes privativas posteriores, en Zaragoza y Valencia a lo largo de 1290. Palabras clave: Parlamentarismo, Corona de Aragón, Alfonso el Liberal, Unión, Monzón. Abstract: Historiography has traditionally considered that the Corts in Monzón in 1289 were the first General Corts of the Crown of Aragon and that the ordinances approved there commonly affected at least Catalans and Aragonese. In this article two novelties are presented regarding this interpretation. On the one hand, we indicate that previously, at the time of James I, there were other assemblies in which members of the Aragonese, Valencian, Catalan and Mallorcan estates gathered, although these meetings certainly did not possess the characteristics that later defined the General Corts of the Crown of Aragon. On the other hand, we show that the constitutions approved in Monzón in 1289 only affected Catalonia and Mallorca, while the political and fiscal negotiations with the communities of Aragon and Valencia were postponed for two subsequent privative Corts, in Zaragoza and Valencia throughout of 1290. Keywords: Parlamentarism, Crown of Aragon, Alfonso the Liberal, Union, Monzón.

Durante la primera mitad del siglo xix, las necesidades presupuestales del erario mexicano obligaron al gobierno a recurrir al endeudamiento y al arrendamiento de algunas de las casas de moneda más importantes del país. Este artículo examina las condiciones políticas y económicas que hicieron posible el relevo del capital británico por el estadounidense—en estricto sentido, californiano—como arrendatario de la Casa de Moneda de México en 1857. Asimismo, explora el desarrollo empresarial de Juan Temple para explicar la coyuntura política que hizo posible su llegada, y la de sus descendientes, a la administración de la ceca de la capital mexicana. During the first half of the nineteenth century, the budgetary needs of the Mexican treasury forced the government to resort to borrowing and leasing some of the most important mints in the country. This article examines the political and economic conditions that allowed for the replacement of British capital by United States capital—specifically, Californian—as the lessee of the Mexican National Mint in 1857. It also explores the development of Juan Temple’s entrepreneurship to explain the political circumstances that facilitated his admission, and that of his descendants, into the administration of the National Mint in Mexico City.
