A Global Perspective of the Festivities in Honor of Rose of Lima in the Hispanic World of the 17th Century
Abstract
The objective of this article is to reinforce the study of modern global Catholicism, seen as an ideological power with pretensions of achieving cultural uniformity throughout the Hispanic Empire. To this end, the numerous festivities of beatification and canonization of Rosa of Lima that took place between 1668 and 1671 have been analyzed from a global perspective. The key to the analysis lies in observing both the human and material circulation and mobility that allowed for the expansion of a Creole devotion in Lima and the successful development of its respective ceremonies within the Catholic orb of the 17th century.
