[한국어 정보]
어둑어둑해질 무렵. 난 펠루링요 광장 모퉁이의 한 교회를 찾았다. 이 교회의 신자는 거의 다 흑인이다. 흑인들이 세운 흑인들의 교회이기 때문이다. 사제도, 그들이 모시는 성인도, 모두 흑인이다. 흑인들은 성모 마리아 대신 호자리우를 성녀로 모시고 예배를 드린다. 흑인들에 있어 호자리우는 성모의 이미지를 갖는다고 한다. 교회 뒤뜰에도 흑인들의 가슴 아픈 역사가 숨어있다. 푸른 눈의 혼혈소녀 아나스타샤는 백인주인에게 성폭행을 당한 후 안주인의 미움을 받아 입에 재갈이 물린 채 골방에 갇혀 굶어 죽었다. 같은 인간이면서 사람대우를 받지 못한 채 300년을 살아온 이들. 흑인들은 이렇게 자신들의 성소에서 자신들 만의 성가를 부르고, 또 불렀다.

Dim dim dusk. I found a church on the corner pelru ringyo Square. The faithful of the Church is nearly black. Negro built because of the black church. Priests also, they are enshrined adults too, they are all black. Black people worship enshrined in the tower Liu St. Mary instead. The image of the arc and has a place in the Black Virgin crying. Church yard in hiding painful history of blacks. Anastasia is a mixed-race girl with blue eyes under the hatred of the hostess after being raped by white masters starved to death while locked in a closet in your mouth to bite the curb. Yet these same humans lived 300 years without receiving treatment for people. So black people sing their own anthem in their sanctuary, and called.

Adultos sacerdotes também, eles estão consagrados também, eles são todos negros. Os negros adoram consagrado na torre Liu St. Mary em seu lugar. A imagem do arco e tem um lugar na Virgem Negra chorando. Pátio da igreja na clandestinidade dolorosa história dos negros. Anastasia é uma menina mestiça com olhos azuis sob o ódio da anfitriã depois de ser estuprada por senhores brancos morreram de fome enquanto trancado em um armário em sua boca para morder o meio-fio. No entanto, esses mesmos seres humanos viveu 300 anos sem receber tratamento para as pessoas. Então, as pessoas negras cantar seu próprio hino em seu santuário, e apelou.

DIA DA BAIANA / BAHIANA'S DAY - NOV 25
Para quem não sabe, oficialmente, o calendário de festas de Salvador começa em 25 de novembro com o Dia da Baiana. Criado em 1989, é uma merecida homenagem às vendedoras de acarajé - uma cultura que perdura há quase 300 anos. Centenas delas lotam a Igreja de Nossa Senhora do Rosário dos Pretos, no Pelourinho - na capital soteropolitana -, para agradecer por mais um ano de luta e perseverança e conquistas.
Para sermos justos com a história, a homenagem deve se estender também a três figuras ilustres básicas de nossa música popular Dorival Caymmi, o grande compositor e cantor baiano, que junto com outro grande compositor, Ary Barroso, e a inesquecível Pequena Notável Carmen Miranda trouxeram com genial simplicidade o encanto e a simpatia da Baiana para o mundo conhecer.
Foi, porém, graças ao dedicado trabalho internacional de Carmen, a Embaixatriz do Samba, que a imagem da baiana ficou para sempre carimbada no mapa do mundo, imediatamente associada ao Brasil e seu folclore.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
To those who do not know, officially the events calendar in Salvador, capital of Bahia State, opens on November 25 with the Bahianas Day. Created in 1989, it is to worthily honor the street Acarajé (a typical African-origin snack) womenvendors - a culture that has lasted for nearly 300 years. Hundreds of them overcrowd the Our Lady of Rosary Church of the Black People, in Pelourinho district in Salvador's downtown, to give thanks for another year of strive and perseverance and achievements.
To be fair with the pages of history, the homage should be also extended to three remarkable characters of the Brazilian popular music panorama - Dorival Caymmi, the great composer and singer who together with another remarkable composer, Ary Barroso, and the unforgettable Brazilian Bombshell brought over with splendid simplicity the charm and magic spell of the Bahianas for the world to get to know of.
It was though, thanks to the international devoted work of Carmen, The Samba Ambassadress, that the bahiana's icon got stamped out on the world's map, immediately associated with Brazil and its folklore.

Confronting The Soul-Devouring Dragon - Sexual Abuse and the Mystery of Evil
Margaret Eletta Guider, O.S.F., STM professor of missiology, and chair, Ecclesiastical
March 21, 2019
Confronting The Soul-Devouring Dragon: Sexual Abuse and the Mystery of Evil
As communities of faith throughout the world grapple with the factors that contribute to sexual abuse, much of the discourse on the subject focuses on analyses of power relations, socio-cultural conditions, and psychological pathologies. In this lecture, Sr. Guider turns attention on an attribution theory that is lacking in many Catholic circles: critical theological reflection on the mystery of evil.

SUMMARY
=======
The Order of the Brothers of the Blessed Virgin Mary of Mount Carmel or Carmelites (sometimes simply Carmel by synecdoche; Latin: Ordo Fratrum Beatissimæ Virginis Mariæ de Monte Carmelo) is a Roman Catholic religious order founded, probably in the 12th century, on Mount Carmel in the Crusader States, hence the name Carmelites. However, historical records about its origin remain very uncertain. Saint Bertold has traditionally been associated with the founding of the order, but few clear records of early Carmelite history have survived.

SUMMARY
=======
Spain (Spanish: España [esˈpaɲa] (listen)), officially the Kingdom of Spain (Spanish: Reino de España), is a country mostly located on the Iberian Peninsula in Europe. Its territory also includes two archipelagoes: the Canary Islands off the coast of Africa, and the Balearic Islands in the Mediterranean Sea. The African enclaves of Ceuta and Melilla make Spain the only European country to have a physical border with an African country (Morocco). Several small islands in the Alboran Sea are also part of Spanish territory. The country's mainland is bordered to the south and east by the Mediterranean Sea except for a small land boundary with Gibraltar; to the north and northeast by France, Andorra, and the Bay of Biscay; and to the west and northwest by Portugal and the Atlantic Ocean.
With an area of 505,990 km2 (195,360 sq mi), Spain is the largest country in Southern Europe, the second largest country in Western Europe and the European Union, and the fourth largest country in the European continent. By population, Spain is the sixth largest in Europe and the fifth in the European Union. Spain's capital and largest city is Madrid; other major urban areas include Barcelona, Valencia, Seville, Málaga and Bilbao.
Modern humans first arrived in the Iberian Peninsula around 35,000 years ago. Iberian cultures along with ancient Phoenician, Greek, Celtic and Carthaginian settlements developed on the peninsula until it came under Roman rule around 200 BCE, after which the region was named Hispania, based on the earlier Phoenician name Sp(a)n or Spania. At the end of the Western Roman Empire the Germanic tribal confederations migrated from Central Europe, invaded the Iberian peninsula and established relatively independent realms in its western provinces, including the Suebi, Alans and Vandals. Eventually, the Visigoths would forcibly integrate all remaining independent territories in the peninsula, including Byzantine provinces, into the Kingdom of Toledo, which more or less unified politically, ecclesiastically and legally all the former Roman provinces or successor kingdoms of what was then documented as Hispania.
In the early eighth century the Visigothic Kingdom fell to the Moors, who arrived to rule most of the peninsula in the year 726, leaving only a handful of small Christian realms in the north, lasting up to seven centuries in the Kingdom of Granada. This led to many wars during a long reconquering period across the Iberian Peninsula, which led to the creation of Kingdom of Leon, Kingdom of Castille, Kingdom of Aragon and Kingdom of Navarre as the main Christian kingdoms to face the invasion. Following the Moorish conquest, Europeans began a gradual process of retaking the region known as the Reconquista, which by the late 15th century culminated in the emergence of Spain as a unified country under the Catholic Monarchs.
In the early modern period, Spain became the world's first global empire and the most powerful country in the world, leaving a large cultural and linguistic legacy that includes +570 million Hispanophones, making Spanish the world's second-most spoken native language, after Mandarin Chinese. During the Golden Age there were also many advancements in the arts, with world-famous painters such as Diego Velázquez.
The most famous Spanish literary work, Don Quixote, was also published during the Golden Age. Spain hosts the world's third-largest number of UNESCO World Heritage Sites.
Spain is a secular parliamentary democracy and a parliamentary monarchy, with King Felipe VI as head of state. It is a major developed country and a high income country, with the world's fourteenth largest economy by nominal GDP and sixteenth largest by purchasing power parity. It is a member of the United Nations (UN), the European Union (EU), the Eurozone, the Council of Europe (CoE), the Organization of Ibero-American States (OEI), the Union for the Mediterranean, the North ...

SUMMARY
=======
Spain (Spanish: España [esˈpaɲa] ( listen)), officially the Kingdom of Spain (Spanish: Reino de España), is a country mostly located on the Iberian Peninsula in Europe. Its territory also includes two archipelagoes: the Canary Islands off the coast of Africa, and the Balearic Islands in the Mediterranean Sea. The African enclaves of Ceuta and Melilla make Spain the only European country to have a physical border with an African country (Morocco). Several small islands in the Alboran Sea are also part of Spanish territory. The country's mainland is bordered to the south and east by the Mediterranean Sea except for a small land boundary with Gibraltar; to the north and northeast by France, Andorra, and the Bay of Biscay; and to the west and northwest by Portugal and the Atlantic Ocean.
With an area of 505,990 km2 (195,360 sq mi), Spain is the largest country in Southern Europe, the second largest country in Western Europe and the European Union, and the fourth largest country in the European continent. By population, Spain is the sixth largest in Europe and the fifth in the European Union. Spain's capital and largest city is Madrid; other major urban areas include Barcelona, Valencia, Seville, Málaga and Bilbao.
