Biography of a Mexican Crucifix
Scheper Hughes, Jennifer (Professor, Professor, University of California, Riverside)
Hughes uses the long history of popular devotions to a famous crucifix to introduce and explore the most salient religious issues in Mexican history: conquest and mission to the Indians; the birth of an indigenous, syncretic Christianity; the rise of a baroque spirituality and aesthetic; the declining influence of the Catholic religious orders; the sometimes violent processes of independence, nationalization, and secularization; the utopian vision and practice ofliberation theology and its institutional dismantling; and finally, the rise of charismatic Catholicism.
