Extracto: Nuestra Senora del Pino es una de las advocaciones marianas que representan a la Virgen Maria. Esta situada en el camarin de la Basilica de Nuestra Senora del Pino en el municipio de Teror, en la isla de Gran Canaria, Espana. La virgen grancanaria, coronada canonicamente en 1905 y en 1914 fue declarada patrona de la Diocesis de Canarias por el Papa Pio X. Bienaventurada Virgen Maria, por Diego de Velazquez.La celebracion de la fiesta de la Natividad de la Santisima Virgen Maria, es conocida en Oriente desde el siglo VI, la cual fue fijada el 8 de septiembre. En Occidente fue introducida hacia el siglo VII procedente del culto en la Basilica de Santa Maria la Mayor, en Roma. La fiesta fue fijada el dia 8 de septiembre singularmente porque era muy oportuno celebrar su nacimiento al principio del ano eclesiastico segun el Monologium Basilianum. Una narracion apocrifa, titulada De ortu Virginis (sobre el nacimiento de la Virgen), ponia la concepcion en el seno de Santa Ana a primero de mayo, y referia que Nuestra Senora habia nacido, a los cuatro meses de gestacion. Aparicion de Nuestra Senora del Pino, obra de Sor Anunciacion Cardoso (1934).El momento de la aparicion de la Virgen del Pino siempre ha estado envuelto en un halo de misterio, existiendo todo tipo de versiones, algunas mas o menos piadosas y otras que quitan al asunto todo caracter sobrenatural y hasta dan referencias de la persona que se trajo la talla desde Espana. Sin embargo, la tradicion popular cuenta como hacia el ano 1481 la imagen de la Virgen Maria aparecio de manera sobrenatural en lo alto de un pino situado en las inmediaciones donde anos mas tarde seria levantada la basilica que...

The introduction of the Virgin Mary to the native peoples of Mexico is often closely associated with Our Lady of Guadalupe, the principal Mexican Marian devotion. Historical evidence indicates that the Mexican shrine was not established until the 1560s, the legend was virtually unknown until its initial publication in Spanish in 1648 and in Nahuatl the following year; and native people did not participate in the devotion to any extensive degree until after the mid-seventeenth century. How, then, was devotion to the Virgin actually introduced to Nahuas during the first decades of Christian evangelization? This book addresses this question through the presentation of Nahuatl-language devotional texts relating to Mary, texts through which Nahuas learned about the Virgin and expressed their own developing devotion to her. The wide range of Nahuatl literature on the Virgin shows that Nahuas were introduced to, and to varying degrees participated in, the full-blown medieval and Renaissance devotion to Mary, adapted into their own language. Native scholars participated in the composition of much of this material. Nahuatl text and English translation are presented in parallel columns. Each text is preceded by introductory commentary that explicates the European background of the material and its new meanings and uses in the Mexican context.

Juan Diego, to whom the Virgin Mary appeared in 1531 miraculously imprinting her likeness on his cape, was canonised in Mexico in 2002 by Pope John Paul II. In 1999, the revered image of Our Lady of Guadalupe had been proclaimed patron saint of the Americas by the Pope. How did a poor Indian and a sixteenth-century Mexican painting of the Virgin Mary attract such unprecedented honours? Across the centuries the enigmatic power of the image has aroused fervent devotion in Mexico: it served as the banner of the rebellion against Spanish rule and, despite scepticism and anti-clericalism, still remains a potent symbol of the modern nation. This book traces the intellectual origins, the sudden efflorescence and the adamantine resilience of the tradition of Our Lady of Guadalupe and will fascinate anyone concerned with the history of religion and its symbols.

Our Lady of Guadalupe is the most important religious symbol of Mexico and one of the most powerful female icons of Mexican culture. In this study, based on research done among second-generation Mexican-American women, Rodriguez examines the role the symbol of Guadalupe has played in the development of these women. She goes beyond the thematic and religious implications of the symbol to delve into its relevance to their daily lives. Rodriguez's study offers an important reinterpretation of one of the New World's most potent symbols. Her conclusions dispute the common perception that Guadalupe is a model of servility and suffering. Rather, she reinterprets the symbol of Guadalupe as a liberating and empowering catalyst for Mexican-American women.
