Apreciado lector: los autores de la Enciclopedia Histórica de Cartagena de Indias presentan con orgullo el TOMO I.El Monasterio de Nuestra Señora de la Candelaria en la colina Popa de la Galera situado en la mágica Cartagena de Indias, Colombia (declarada por la UNESCO en 1984 Patrimonio Histórico y Cultural de la Humanidad), es visto por los locales y visitantes con un halo de misterio, desde su fundación en 1606 a 1607, conjuntamente por fray Vicente Mallol y fray Alonso García Paredes y hasta nuestros días.Drama, fiesta y mística agustiniana se conjugan, y como en un éxtasis se cierne sobre él la figura cimera de San Agustín de Hipona (354-430) doctor de la Iglesia Católica; iniciando este portento la historia de la Comunidad de los Agustinos.España y Suramérica, en especial el Nuevo Reino de Granada (actual Colombia), son los escenarios de esta saga. Cinco siglos de historia se afianzan en Santa Cruz de la Popa y desfilan entonces la realidad y la leyenda. Un museo, un claustro, un santuario. Un Retablo esplendoroso y deslumbrante que sin duda compite a nivel mundial con las más reconocidas obras de arte religioso.La Popa de la Galera fue testigo de excepción en acontecimientos bélicos, así como también de la presencia de personajes importantes: San Pedro Claver, Sir Edward Vernon, El Barón de Pointis, Alexander Von Humboldt… y el Libertador Simón Bolívar. Se sorprenderán que ingleses, franceses, alemanes... y venezolanos fueron protagonistas de esta historia.Querido lector te subyugará todo; y las muchas fotografías a color que van recreando la trama, pero, y ¿La Cumbia?... ¿Qué es eso?Te invitamos a desentrañar el misterio.
