James Spencer Northcote Knihy
Tento anglický katolícky kňaz a spisovateľ bol hlboko ovplyvnený Johnom Henrym Newmanom. Po konverzii na katolicizmus a kňazskej vysviacke zasvätil svoj život štúdiu a písaniu. Jeho najvýznamnejšie dielo, „Roma Sotterranea“, je autoritatívnym pojednaním o katakombách, ktoré vzniklo v spolupráci s biskupom Williamom R. Brownlowom. Jeho rozsiahly akademický výskum v oblasti kresťanských starožitností z neho robí dôležitú postavu pre záujemcov o ranú cirkev.
This critical examination of the alleged apparition of the Blessed Virgin to two children on the mountain of La Salette in 1846 offers a fascinating glimpse into a moment of religious fervor. James Spencer Northcote takes a skeptical approach to the claims of the visionaries, providing a detailed analysis of the evidence and the broader cultural context in which they emerged. This thought-provoking book is a must-read for anyone interested in religious history and the ways in which belief systems can shape our world.
