Studies in Latino/a Catholicism Series. The Catholic understanding of Tradition is not just about the preservation of ancient practices or customs; it is also the process by which the faith is handed on from one generation to another. The essays in this volume, by scholars from a variety of disciplines, center on two questions: How is the Christian tradition "traditioned" among Latino/as? And what impact does this "traditioning" have on the Tradition?

A welcome and seminal contribution to Catholic Studies,
By Midwest Book Review (Oregon, WI USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Futuring Our Past: Explorations in the Theology of Tradition (Studies in Latino/a Catholicism) (Paperback)
Ably compiled, organized, and co-edited by Orlando O. Espin (Professor of Systematic Theology, University of San Diego) and Gary Macy (Professor of Church History, University of San Diego), Futuring Our Past: Explorations In The Theology Of Tradition is a collection of superbly presented analytical essays pertaining to Roman Catholic and Latino/as Catholic traditions and religious heritage. Knowledgeably authored by an impressive group of scholarly writers, the essays and commentaries comprising Futuring Our Past provides readers with an excellent understanding of "traditioning", representing the Roman Catholic influence upon Latino cultural traditions and pre-Christian beliefs. A welcome and seminal contribution to Catholic Studies, Futuring Our Past is very highly recommended for its scholarly exploration of the ideas and ideals in Latino/as traditionalism which will prove to be of special interest to students of sociology, Latino history, religion, and culture.
