When Lucita, a 17 years old sudden is found murdered in the chapel of her elite school, Superintendent Román Soto is called to investigate what is apparently a robbery of valuable gold and silver artefacts by a thief that got away empty handed. The school and Soto´s superior are happy with the explanation but he is not, so he decides to investigate further against the wishes of his Director. Who as already warned him not to upset the nuns or any important people that have their daughters at that school? Helped by his good friend and collaborator Dr. Brito and spurred on by further deaths, Román Soto forges ahead and crosses swords with the formidable Mother Superior. This also upsets a few members of a seemingly untouchable class, who have pressing problems of their own and will not help to find a murderer in their midst. The strong and colourful characters and Superintendent Soto’s relentless pursuit, continues the battle to the very end.
This research aimed to generate more complex knowledge regarding youth religiosity in Santiago de Chile. Following Van der Vens proposal, an empirical-theological study was developed, guided by three main questions: How is youth religiosity in Santiago today configured? What personal and social factors influence it? And what contributions does this knowledge bring to theological and pastoral reflection? Using a Mixed Method (qual-QUAN) five dimensions were explored: beliefs, events of contact, practices, consequences in daily life, and groups of reference. The results were a valuable contribution to the available knowledge and theological reflection in dialogue with "lived religion".
One of the earliest known autobiographies by a woman, this is the extraordinary tale of Catalina de Erauso, who in 1599 escaped from a Basque convent dressed as a man and went on to live one of the most wildly fantastic lives of any woman in history. A soldier in the Spanish army, she traveled to Peru and Chile, became a gambler, and even mistakenly killed her own brother in a duel. During her lifetime she emerged as the adored folkloric hero of the Spanish-speaking world. This delightful translation of Catalina's own work introduces a new audience to her audacious escapades.
