  • "For centuries, the Virgin of Guadalupe has symbolized the identity of the Mexican people. Her likeness sparks a kaleidoscope of images and feelings: the flag of rebellion against Spanish dominion, a spiritual haven, the cure to a myriad of physical and mental illnesses. In this book, Brading reflects on its history, doctrine and celebrations provide a deeper understanding of the creation, transformation and social validity of this key element of the Mexican identity. Description in Spanish: A trav."
  • "In 1999 Pope John Paul II proclaimed Our Lady of Guadalupe a patron saint of the Americas. According to oral tradition and historical documents, in 1531 Mary appeared as a beautiful Aztec princess to Juan Diego, a poor Indian. Speaking to him in his own language, she asked him to tell the bishop her name was La Virgen de Guadalupe and that she wanted a church built on the mountain. During a second visit, the image of the Virgin miraculously appeared on his cape. Through the centuries, the enigmatic power of this image has aroused such fervent devotion in Mexico that it has served as the banner of the rebellion against Spanish rule and, despite skepticism and anticlericalism, still remains a potent symbol of the modern nation. In Mexican Phoenix, David Brading traces the intellectual origins, the sudden efflorescence, and the theology that has sustained the tradition of Our Lady of Guadalupe. Brading also documents the interaction of religion and patriotism, and describes how the image has served as a banner both for independence and for the Church in its struggle against the Liberal and revolutionary state."
