Philippiniana Sacra<\/a>, the official publication of the University of Santo Tomas\u2019 Ecclesiastical Faculties, has announced special issues for the 500 Years of Christianity in the Philippines.<\/p>\nThe journal has dedicated its first three issues this year to talk about the early years of religious missionaries in the archipelago.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe works, collected here, present an in-depth scholarly understanding of the missionaries\u2019 collegial efforts in evangelizing the so-called \u2018bastion of Christianity\u2019 in Asia, which started in the 1500s,\u201d said its editor Fr. Jesus Miranda, OP.<\/p>\n
The topics range from key historical figures, missionary approaches, the establishment of centers for evangelization, the arts, and the development of educational institutions.<\/p>\n
Miranda, who is also the UST\u2019s secretary general, said the special editions are their contribution to mark the quincentennial jubilee.<\/p>\n
Also serving as guest editor for the issue is Dr. Jorge Mojarro, a professor in the UST Graduate school.<\/p>\n
Mojarro specializes in global Hispanic literature, and teaches and researches on transpacific studies and early Iberian accounts about Asia.<\/p>\n
As 2021 also marks the 800th death anniversary of St. Dominic, the journal is also releasing a special issue to honor the founder of the Order of Preachers.<\/p>\n
The UST\u2019s Center for Theology, Religious Studies and Ethics is working on the second volume, which bears the theme \u201cThe Dominican Way of Building the Church\u201d.<\/p>\n[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section]\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
