KRUTITSKAYA, Anastasia. Way to Pray the Rosary: One Form of Directed Contemplation in New Spain of the 17th Century. Acta poét [online]. 2014, vol.35, n.2, pp.215-233. ISSN 2448-735X.
The subjetc of this text is the review of rosary's History from its oriental tradition to the secularization of its use by several ecclesiastic congregations. The different ways in wich the Rosary gained religious significations are explored as a colective scope regarding supernatural events refered on the Bible or those ocurred in quotidian life, and as an individual scope by the spiritual approach of the believer by the means of contemplation and meditation. Likewise these praxis are discovered as a guided form of contemplation inside the religious dogma with the purpose of guilt atonement and redemption. This will be used as a benefit during the Counter-Reformation in order to guide the believer through the permitted paths of Catholic religion and prevent their deviation along the dark routes of Protestantism.
