The Movie Mogul, Moses and Muslims: Islamic Elements in Cecil B. DeMille’s The Ten Commandments (1956)

Cecil B. DeMille’s 1956 film, The Ten Commandments, has come to define the genre of the biblical epic. It has earned a permanent place in American culture due to its annual airing on television during the Easter and Passover holidays. Most viewers are unaware, however, that DeMille had sought to make a film that would appeal to Jews, Christians and Muslims at a time when their common Abrahamic ancestry had yet to be articulated, and interreligious dialogue was all but unheard of. To this end, Henry Noerdlinger, DeMille’s researcher for the film, consulted the Qur’an, and screenwriters incorporated Islamic references into the script. This article explores the social and historical context for the film, Noerdlinger’s published volume of research (Moses and Egypt) and examines those parts of the script with explicit references to the Qur’an and Muslims

El acontecimiento Medellín en sus cuarenta años. el conflicto de las ideologías

The sixties were the years of Vatican II and Medellín. These were years full of changes, conflicts and tensions in theChurch and in the Latin American world, in particular. This article takes a global view of these conflicts pointing to the convergence and clashes of different ideologies prevailing then. This has been the reason to consider Medellín from different angles. By the same token, the author points out the comparison of Medellín with the theological trend known in Salamanca between the XVI and the XVII century and its impact in the Latin American Church. Finally, the author indicates the outstanding theological ideas in the document of Medellín and their influence in the development of the Latin American Church and in the universal Church altogether.Los años 60, que fueron los del Vaticano II y Medellín, fueron años en los que confluyeron fuertes cambios, conflictos y tensiones para la Iglesia y para el mundo latinoamericano, en particular. El presente artículo presenta una visión de esos conflictos y sobre todo resalta la convergencia y el choque de las diferentes ideologías que se presentaron en aquel entonces. Esto ha originado que Medellín sea interpretado desde distintos ángulos. El autor resaltaigualmente la comparación de Medellín con lo que la corriente teológica de Salamanca en los siglos XVI Y XVII ha representado para la Iglesia Latinoamericana. Por último, el autor señala algunas de lasideasteológicasmás destacas deMedellín, que han influidomucho en el desarrollo de la Iglesia en América Latina, pero que también han influido en la Iglesia universal

Luis Jerónimo de Oré OFM — Symbolo Catholico Indiano (1598)

Brother Luis Jerónimo de Oré’s Symbolo Catholico Indiano was the most important and authorized sixteenth century treatise for the evangelization of the native Andean peoples. In its pages we find a vivid image of Andean reality immediately after the Conquest and a fervent exposition of the Catholic faith inspired in the recent Councils of Trent and Lima. The treatise also presents the missioning methods that served the Franciscans and other priests of the Viceroyalty for the evangelization of the indigenous peoples. Above all, in this text we find an admirable exposition of the theological doctrine and catechetical practice in the anthropological perspective that forms its starting point, which is the Andean man or woman who had never heard a message of salvation and dignity for the human person. Brother Luis Jerónimo de Oré Rojas OFM was born in Huamanga in 1554 (now the geographi- cal Department of Ayacucho in Perú). He was a zealous missionary who travelled throughout the colonizers’ territory, from the extreme north of Florida to the extreme south of Chile. As an intelli- gent linguist he was the author of important rituals and catechisms in Quechua and Aymara. He was one of the first bishops born on the American soil, and the first to be incorporated into the Native Indian Council and the Vatican hierarchy; as a bishop he stood out for his protection of aboriginal groups and his energetic defense of the cultural integrity of Native Indian nations.Brother Luis Jerónimo de Oré’s Symbolo Catholico Indiano was the most important and authorized sixteenth century treatise for the evangelization of the native Andean peoples.
