    {PDF EPUB} Baroque Goa the Architecture of Portuguese India by José Pereira Church of Our Lady of Divine Providence

    Read Ebook {PDF EPUB} Baroque Goa The Architecture of Portuguese India by José Pereira Church of Our Lady Of Divine Providence. The Church of Our Lady of Divine Providence of Old Goa pertained to the vanished Theatine Convent of Saint Cajetan, a patron saint frequently but mistakenly attributed to the church itself. The convent building was located immediately to the south of where the Palace of the Fortress once stood, near the Arch of the Viceroys. Nowadays only the church attests to the presence of this order of Italian friars in the territories of the Portuguese Padroado of the Orient. And it was precisely due to their refusal to submit to the Portuguese monarchs that the Theatine friars who had arrived in Goa in 1639 were forced to leave the territory. Before that happened, between 1656 and 1672, they built their convent. According to Rafael Moreira, it was designed by the Theatine Father Carlo Ferrari, assisted in the task by Bother Francesco Maria Milazzo. The convent’s builder was Manuel Pereira. Regarding the church, Rafael Moreira establishes the influences of Saint Peter’s in the Vatican only with respect to the façade; its plan derives from the one at the sanctuary of Madonna della Ghiara in Reggio- Emilia. Articulation between the façade and volume of the church, with its centred plan, is done via a galilee running the width of the building. The high altar is located above this entrance space and is possibly the most Portuguese feature of the entire church. The worship space is arranged around a central square crowned by a dome over pendentives, in whose drum are eight rectangular windows.

DEFINING GOAN IDENTITY: A LITERARY APPROACH by DONNA J. YOUNG Under the Direction of David McCreery ABSTRACT This is an analysis of Goan identity issues in the twentieth and twenty-first centuries using unconventional sources such as novels, short stories, plays, pamphlets, periodical articles, and internet newspapers. The importance of using literature in this analysis is to present how Goans perceive themselves rather than how the government, the tourist industry, or tourists perceive them. Also included is a discussion of post-colonial issues and how they define Goan identity. Chapters include “Goan Identity: A Concept in Transition,” “Goan Identity: Defined by Language,” and “Goan Identity: The Ancestral Home and Expatriates.” The conclusion is that by making Konkani the official state language, Goans have developed a dual Goan/Indian identity. In addition, as the Goan Diaspora becomes more widespread, Goans continue to define themselves with the concept of building or returning to the ancestral home.

  • The Changing Faces of Christianity in Goa from Being Portuguese to Being Indian ?

    The Changing Faces of Christianity in Goa from Being Portuguese to Being Indian ?

    Charles BORGES, Lusotopie 2000: 435-454 The Changing Faces of Christianity in Goa From Being Portuguese to Being Indian ? he present paper might sound a long survey of Christianity in Goa since the arrival of the Portuguese in India in 1498 and in Goa in 1510. TIt is meant, however, really to be a look at dynamics of insertion of the Portuguese Christian faith in a culture much alien to its thinking and how initial opposition to conversion made way gradually over the centuries for an amiable acceptance of a foreign religion. Records of the sixteenth and later centuries, however, also speak of a certain « Indianness » creeping into forms of worship and devotions and art of the people, tacitly allowed by the clergy of the time. An attempt at inculturation we might say, it was, but meant primarily to win over the believers to a different ideology and way of life. It did not always work and one can only be proud of the many Goans who off and on showed their true feelings and antagonisms to the Portuguese political and ecclesiastical leadership. Faithfulness to church worship had not given these « rebels » the greater participation in economic and hierarchical prosperity. Various Goan writings (documents, ecclesiastical journals, etc.) for the present century show often a « calculated lethargy » on the part of the educated Goan believers to challenge structures and happenings and a willingness to go along with the then Portuguese ideology. Matters changed in 1961. The post-liberation church in Goa, happily, shows itself as a quick learning church, alert and open to new trends.

The arrival of European music in India following the landing of Vasco da Gama in 1498, and its subsequent institutionalization in Goa by the Portuguese and Jesuit communities during the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries, offers a case in point. In recent articles I have described how the Portuguese used music to shape culture , politics, and identity in sixteenth-century Goa.1 Specifically, I have argued that the mann er in which music was used in the service of missionary activity and as part of the colonial imperatives of Portuguese explorers raises important issues about the cross-cultural tran smission of Renaissance repertories and the methodologies for studying

The editor, Women as agents and objects of sin Clara Sarmento, claims that women have been generally neglected The next section deals with literature and female voices. Betina Ruiz briefl y discusses the love letters of a 17th century nun, in writings on the Lusitanian empire. Mariana da Costa Alcoforado, which have been subjected to various analyses. This is followed by a substantial piece by the Michael Pearson editor, Clara Sarmento, on the vexed topic of St. Francis Xavier’s view of women. He found there were four types: European; converted; of another religion; agents and objects of sin. The last could include people from the fi rst three categories. For him women and original sin were inextricably linked. He always saw them through the prism of his two main objectives: to convert people, and expand the Society of Jesus. Sarmento says she is dubious about the oft-made claim that Xavier was a misogynist, yet I regret to say that the data she presents seems to make a strong case for exactly this criticism.
