Abstract:
In the 16th century, Protestants rejected the possibility of mystical encounters between humans and God. Catholics responded in various ways, but perhaps most forcefully by continuing to claim mystical experiences and by emphasizing extreme forms of mysticism. This paper analyzes how that rejection affected the development of Catholic mysticism at that time, especially in the case of Saint Teresa of Avila (1515–82), whose ecstasies were closely examined by the Spanish Inquisition, but were subsequently approved and promoted as exemplary of the truths professed by the Catholic Church.

Abstract:
The image appeared on the cover of a Sunday bulletin, produced and distributed by one of Guatemala City's most conservative neo-Pentecostal mega-churches. The picture presented the face of a young teenage girl, her eyes closed, lips wet, and skin kissed by a soft, transcendent light; the young woman's head was even tilted to the side in what Jacques Lacan would call jouissance (1998). Across her pink lips read Psalm 4:6: “In peace, I lay myself down.” This image, stitched together by the church's media relations department, makes a sly reference to Gian Lorenzo Bernini's sculpture, St. Teresa

This article is the first in a series of reflections in which our main objective is the recovery of space that should never lose women. We review those heroines women in a misogynist society, who have been influential thinkers in the creative work of contemporary art. This text is dedicated to Saint Teresa of Jesus, a heroine, in whom many artists have set their sights as a benchmark for empowerment and they have directed their work toward mysticism, creating a connection between art and spirituality. We collect a selection of artists who have used the mystical, pain, purple, silence, visions,

Abstract:
Sculptures are not capable of creating as complex scenes as painting does, except sculptural relief that creates the illusion of perspective and narration through the different planes. And it is not a question of establishing conceptual criteria in the manner of El Paragone, but rather discovering the constructive possibilities of sculpture in certain proposals, such as the representation of content through mass, height and depth, that is, the three-dimensionality. Already in the past, sculptors made an effort to obtain complex results such as the challenge to gravity (deceiving gravity), by m

The three-fold categorization of the spiritual path as consisting of the stages of purgation, illumination, and union, is used to provide the format for this comparison.

Abstract:
Chapter 5 explores the devotion and controversy surrounding Sor María Teresa Aycinena, a Carmelite nun, who in 1816 in the midst of the Independence wars, reportedly began to experience the stigmata, visions, mystical crucifixions, and miraculous images formed with the blood of her wounds. The powerful archbishop, priests, and lay devotees, many of them women, supported the Carmelite nun as a holy woman, but her divine revelations fueled controversy and political conflicts. Modern scholars treat the case only in passing, accepting the liberal nineteenth-century view that Sor María Teresa and her lay devotees were conservative political pawns. This case certainly highlights the early politicization of networks between priests and laywomen, but it also reveals how religious motivations significantly shaped clerical support of the mystic nun, while the Church’s weakened position created openings for assertive female claims to spiritual authority and a renewal of devotions long popular with laywomen.
