El Renacimiento, que cronológicamente abarca desde mediados del siglo XIV hasta principios del siglo XVII, representa todo un programa de renovación cultural y política, que pretende instaurar una nueva época en la historia de la civilización europea y dar al mundo un nuevo rostro. Pero esta corriente no pretende impulsar sólo un movimiento de renovación cultural sino que también quiere generar un renacimiento real que se refleje en la vida de los individuos y de los pueblos. El presente volumen pretende poner de manifiesto que la historia intelectual de esos siglos supuso el comienzo de una larga estación de la civilización occidental que se conoce como "mundo moderno", y que fueron los renacentistas los que comenzaron a elaborar el programa cultural de la nueva época. Hemos prestado atención en este texto a algunos de los protagonistas más destacados del pensamiento de la época, desde sus inicios con Nicolás de Cusa hasta los primeros desarrollos de la ciencia moderna con Galileo, recorriendo las distintas corrientes del humanismo y las propuestas de pensamiento político de Maquiavelo, sin dejar de atender a aquellas figuras que, como Bacon y Bruno, dibujaron una nueva concepción de la naturaleza.

Contributors Immanuel Wallerstein, Enrique Dussel, Walter Mignolo, Agustin Lao, Lewis Gordon, James V. Fenelon, Roberto Hernandez, James Cohen, Santiago Slabosky, Susanne Jonas, and Thomas Reifer. By the mid-twenty-first century, white Euro-Americans will be a demographic minority in the United States and Latino/as will be the largest minority (25 percent). These changes bring about important challenges at the heart of the contemporary debates about political transformations in the United States and around the world. Latino/as are multiracial (Afro-latinos, Indo-latinos, Asian-latinos, and Euro-latinos), multi-ethnic, multireligious (Jewish, Catholic, Protestant, Muslim, indigenous, and African spiritualities), and of varied legal status (immigrants, citizens, and illegal migrants). This collection addresses for the first time the potential of these diverse Latino/a spiritualities, origins, and statuses against the landscape of decolonization of the U.S. economic and cultural empire in the twenty-first century. Some authors explore the impact of Indo-latinos and Afro-latinos in the United States and others discuss the conflicting interpretations and political conflicts arising from the "Latinization" of the United States.

This is a bilingual edition of the selected peer-reviewed papers that were submitted for the International Symposium on Jesuit Studies on the thought of the Jesuit Francisco Suárez (1548–1617). The symposium was co-organized in Seville in 2018 by the Departamento de Humanidades y Filosofía at Universidad Loyola Andalucía and the Institute for Advanced Jesuit Studies at Boston College. Suárez was a theologian, philosopher and jurist who had a significant cultural impact on the development of modernity. Commemorating the four-hundredth anniversary of his death, the symposium studied the work of Suárez and other Jesuits of his time in the context of diverse traditions that came together in Europe between the late Middle Ages, the Renaissance, and early modernity.
