The Penitente Brotherhood reenact the Passion of Christ through self-mortification of the flesh and emulation of His crucifixion each year in New Mexico during the Catholic Lenten season.

These papers are centered on the Crown of Aragon in the later Middle Ages, its achievements (the more remarkable given the very evident problems with which it was beset), and especially on its role in the Mediterranean.

Other studies deal with the relations of Christians and Jews in Majorca, down to the Expulsion from Spain. In these papers Professor Hillgarth seeks to investigate the transmission of learning and how what is transmitted ...

“Madre anoche en las trincheras” es un estudio exhaustivo de investigación sobre el periplo de los hermanos Corral Martínez en la guerra de España a partir de treinta y seis cartas que remitieron desde los diversos frentes de batalla por los que pasaron.
