“La Sábana Santa de Turín y el Santo Sudario de Oviedo desde la Historia, la Ciencia y el Arte,” a new book from the UCO Publishing Service

For some believers, it is an indisputable relic; for others, a venerable remnant and, in any case, a symbol of the Passion and Resurrection of Jesus. For the scientific community, it is a disturbing object, subject to the most diverse tests from the most varied fields of knowledge (medicine, law, botany, chemistry, archaeology, art, etc.) in order to provide answers to the enigmas it poses.In 2007, the University Brotherhood of Córdoba commissioned the image of its titular figure, the Holy…

“Franciscanos, místicos, herejes y alumbrados”, a new book from the Publications Service of the University of Córdoba

The approach taken by this study, authored by Horacio Roldán Barbero, Professor of Criminal Law at the University of Córdoba, has a dual nature: political and legal. It is political in that it analyzes a phenomenon of clear ideological significance, and legal because it addresses the responses provided by public order laws and the specialized tribunal in the matter. From the first perspective, it describes the common aspects of Maoism in Spain, identifying the main groups of this tendency and their objectives, with particular attention to two organizations: the PCE Marxist-Leninist and the PCE-International, without neglecting the analysis of several…
