Courtship, Marriage and Marriage Breakdown
This book explores the history of marriage and marriage-like relationships across five continents from the seventeenth century to the present day. Across fourteen chapters, leading marriage scholars examine how the methodologies from the new history of emotions contribute to our understanding of marriage, seeking to uncover not only personal feeling but also the political and social implications of emotion. They highlight how marriage as an institution has been shaped not just by law and society but also by individual and community choices, desires and emotional values. Importantly, they also emphasize how the history of non-traditional and same-sex relationships and their emotions have long played an important role in determining the nature of marriage as an institution and emotional union. In doing so, this collection allows us to rethink both the past and present of marriage, destabilizing a story of a stable institution and opening it up as a site of contest, debate and feeling.
Quest for Certainty in Early Modern Europe
Reflecting on humanity's shared desire for certainty, this book explores the discrepancies between religious adherence and inner belief specific to the early modern period, a time marred by forced conversions and inquisition.
Impelling Spirit
Impelling Spirit is a book about Jesuit spirituality as seen in its origins. As such it responds to the challenge of Vatican II that the appropriate renewal of religious life demands a return to the sources of Christian life and the spirit and aims of the founders of an institute. The instrument the author employs is a 1539 document Ignatius and his companions drafted for Pope Paul III as an apostolic letter addressed to themselves; this document - long neglected and largely unknown - clearly reveals how they understood themselves and their way of life. It demonstrates that the spirit and aims of the Society, though radical in 1539, were also deeply rooted in the Christian tradition.

Estudios jurídicos en homenaje al profesor don José María Castán Vázquez
Bien es sabido que “cuando dejemos este mundo, no podremos llevarnos nada que hayamos recibido; solo lo que hayamos dado” (San Francisco de Asís). Este libro da buena cuenta de lo mucho que José María Castán dio. La rica y atractiva respuesta que tantos amigos han ofrecido a una propuesta de modesto homenaje así lo pone de manifiesto. Toda su vida la dedicó José María Castán al estudio del Derecho y, durante treinta años, a enseñarlo en su Universidad Pontificia Comillas, en ICADE. Numerosas publicaciones y conferencias mostraron que su inquietud jurídica no se detuvo en su querido Derecho de Familia, ni siquiera, en el Derecho civil. Por esta razón, especialistas de distintos ámbitos del Derecho (administrativo, constitucional, mercantil, penal, procesal, Historia del Derecho o Teoría del Derecho) que compartimos, como profesores o como alumnos, su labor universitaria, hemos querido ofrecer a través de este libro un merecido reconocimiento. José María, maestro de muchos y amigo de todos, gracias por todo lo que nos has dado.
