The sermons were extremely popular throughout the later middle ages as evidenced by their existence in eighty-four manuscripts from the thirteenth through fifteenth centuries, and nineteen printed editions from the late fifteenth and sixteenth centuries. The sermons are evidence of an unexplored trend in Christian piety focused on the adult life of Christ including his parables, miracles, and ministry that stands in contrast to the more well-known affective piety of the later Middle Ages, which tends to focus on the early life and Passion of Christ. Maurice de Sully did not promote passive reflection on the Passion but rather encouraged ordinary believers to reform their behavior, and actively lead good, Christian lives by participating in confession, receiving penance and by spreading the Christian Word. He did so using stories from the adult life of Christ, taken from the New Testament. The image cycles associated with the sermons of Sully also represent this trend in devotion. Chapter one concerns the twelfth century world of Maurice de Sully in Paris, and the model sermon collection that he wrote there. While the sermons of Maurice de Sully are less studied than those of his more academically inclined contemporaries, such as Peter Comestor, Peter the Chanter and Peter Lombard, I reveal the ways in which his sermons actually relay pertinent theological information, especially concerning the Gospels, to lay viii audiences. Chapter two addresses the actual reception of the sermons and their intended message by investigating them in their manuscript context. The focus is on vernacular manuscripts and their use by lay audiences. Chapter three turns to an in-depth look at one fourteenth-century

  • LATERAN IV to IGNORANTIA SACERDOTUM by Andrew B
    TEACHING THE CREED AND ARTICLES OF FAITH IN ENGLAND: LATERAN IV TO IGNORANTIA SACERDOTUM By Andrew B. Reeves A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Centre for Medieval Studies University of Toronto © Copyright by Andrew B. Reeves 2009 Abstract Title: Teaching the Creed and Articles of Faith in England: Lateran IV to Ignorantia sacerdotum Submitted by: Andrew B. Reeves Degree: Doctor of Philosophy (2009) Department: Medieval Studies, University of Toronto This study examines how English laypeople and clergy of lower ranks were taught the basic principles of Christian doctrine as articulated in the Apostles‘ Creed and Articles of Faith. Chapter one addresses the theological and historical background. Over the course of the twelfth century, school-based theologians came to place an increasing emphasis on faith as a cognitive state while at the same time moral theologians sought to make sure that all Christians had a basic participation in the life of the Church. These trends led to an effort by the Church as an institution to make sure that all Christians had at least a basic understanding of the Christian religion. Chapter two examines how the episcopate carried out a drive to ensure this basic level of understanding through the venues of councils, synods, and deanery and archdeaconry meetings. In all three of these venues, the requirements of making sure the laity know the Creed and Articles of Faith were passed on to parochial clergy, and through these clergy to the laity. Chapter three concerns one particular aspect of presenting the basics of doctrine to the laity, viz., preaching.

  • Colleague, Critic, and Sometime Counselor to Thomas Becket
    JOHN OF SALISBURY: COLLEAGUE, CRITIC, AND SOMETIME COUNSELOR TO THOMAS BECKET By L. Susan Carter A DISSERTATION Submitted to Michigan State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of History–Doctor of Philosophy 2021 ABSTRACT JOHN OF SALISBURY: COLLEAGUE, CRITIC, AND SOMETIME COUNSELOR TO THOMAS BECKET By L. Susan Carter John of Salisbury was one of the best educated men in the mid-twelfth century. The beneficiary of twelve years of study in Paris under the tutelage of Peter Abelard and other scholars, John flourished alongside Thomas Becket in the Canterbury curia of Archbishop Theobald. There, his skills as a writer were of great value. Having lived through the Anarchy of King Stephen, he was a fierce advocate for the liberty of the English Church. Not surprisingly, John became caught up in the controversy between King Henry II and Thomas Becket, Henry’s former chancellor and successor to Theobald as archbishop of Canterbury. Prior to their shared time in exile, from 1164-1170, John had written three treatises with concern for royal court follies, royal pressures on the Church, and the danger of tyrants at the core of the Entheticus de dogmate philosophorum , the Metalogicon , and the Policraticus. John dedicated these works to Becket. The question emerges: how effective was John through dedicated treatises and his letters to Becket in guiding Becket’s attitudes and behavior regarding Church liberty? By means of contemporary communication theory an examination of John’s writings and letters directed to Becket creates a new vista on the relationship between John and Becket—and the impact of John on this martyred archbishop.

  • Marian Calendar December 1
    Marian Calendar December 1 - Our Lady of Ratisbon, Bavaria (1842) One of the most famous examples of Our Lady’s bounty in granting favors to the wearers of the Miraculous Medal occurred less than ten years after the medal had been struck. Alphonse Rathisbonne was a French Jew who had no religion. When his brother Theodore became a Catholic and then a priest, Alphonse was filled with aversion. He was a typical intellectual of the nineteenth century, a worshipper of humanity, who sneered at anything spiritual in his pride and ignorance. In November 1841, Alphonse found himself in Rome, although his itinerary had not called for a stop in the Eternal City. There he met Baron de Bussiere. The Baron urgently requested him to wear the Miraculous Medal and to recite daily the prayer of Saint Bernard, “The Memorare.” Alphonse did so in the spirit of acceptance and of dare but without the slightest bit of faith. On January 20, 1842, Monsieur de Bussiere saw Alphonse walking along the street and invited him into his carriage. They stopped at Saint Andrea delle Fratee because the Baron wished to see a priest there. In order to kill time, Rathisbonne entered the church. He was not very much impressed and was walking around rather listlessly. Suddenly the church seemed to be plunged into darkness and all the light concentrated on one chapel. Very much startled he saw there our Blessed Mother bathed in glorious light, her face radiant. He went toward her. She motioned with her right hand for him to kneel.

  • La Cathédrale De Notre-Dame, Also Known As Notre-Dame De Paris, Is the Most Well-Known Gothic Cathedral in the World
    La Cathédrale de Notre-Dame La Cathédrale de Notre-Dame, also known as Notre-Dame de Paris, is the most well-known gothic cathedral in the world. As an active Catholic church, this beautiful cathedral welcomes more than 50,000 visitors every day who come for religious, historical, and literary reasons. The name Notre-Dame means Our Lady, and the cathedral was built to honor Mary, the mother of Christ. Throughout the years, numerous historical events have taken place inside Notre-Dame, including the coronations of King Henry VI and Emperor Napoleon I. Notre-Dame also served as the setting of Victor Hugo’s famous novel Notre-Dame de Paris. The English title of this novel is The Hunchback of Notre-Dame. The original sections of Notre-Dame are more than 850 years old. La Cathédrale de Notre-Dame is located in Paris on the eastern end of the Ile de la Cité, meaning Island of the City. Because the Seine River flows through Paris, it separates the city into two sections. The southern bank, or left bank, is known as La Rive Gauche, and the northern bank, or right bank, is known as La Rive Droite. The Ile de la Cité is a teardrop shaped island that sits between the two banks, and it is the oldest part of the city of Paris. In the second century BC, a Gallic tribe known as the Parisii developed a settlement on the Ile de la Cité and named it Lutetia, which is Latin for Midwater-Dwelling. Many poets and writers have likened the Ile de la Cité to a majestic ship on the Seine River, and La Cathédrale de Notre-Dame as the lovely princess looking out over the water from the bow of the ship.

The musical begins as the bells of Notre Dame sound through the famed cathedral in fifteenth-century Paris. Quasimodo, the deformed bell-ringer who longs to be “Out There,” observes all of Paris reveling in the Feast of Fools. Held captive by his devious caretaker, the archdeacon Dom Claude Frollo, he escapes for the day and joins the boisterous crowd, only to be treated cruelly by all but the beautiful gypsy, Esmeralda. Quasimodo isn’t the only one captivated by her free spirit, though – the handsome Captain Phoebus and Frollo are equally enthralled. As the three vie for her attention, Frollo embarks on a mission to destroy the gypsies – and it’s up to Quasimodo to save them all. A sweeping score and powerful story make The Hunchback of Notre Dame an instant classic.

  • Notre Dame De Paris. Un Manifeste Chrétien (1160-1230)
    Michel Lemoine (ed.): Notre Dame de Paris. Un manifeste chrétien (1160-1230). Actes du Colloque organisé à L'Institut de France le vendredi 12 décembre 2003 (= Rencontres Médiévales Européennes; Vol. 4), Turnhout: Brepols Publishers NV 2004, 151 S., ISBN 2-503-51632-7, EUR 28,00 Rezensiert von: Vibeke Olson University of North Carolina Wilmington Any creative work is in large part a reflection of its own time; a response to contemporary ideas and events. This is the premise the authors set out to examine in the collection of essays on Notre-Dame de Paris edited by Michel Lemoine. Like the preceding three volumes in the series, this collection aims at interdisciplinarity in its approach to the topic, covering such areas as liturgy, music, and philosophy, as well as the building itself and its patron, the bishop of Paris, Maurice de Sully. The multidisciplined structure of the papers follows a recent trend in the investigation of medieval works of art which allows for a fuller and more complete understanding of a work within a broader contextual framework, rather than simply as points along a predetermined line of stylistic development. [1] The cathedral of Paris was constructed during an exciting period of transition both architecturally and theologically and as such is a rich topic for interdisciplinary examination. Though studies on the building are numerous, few consider the totality of the monument, as a product of its time, influenced by current trends in thinking, politics, religion and popular culture. [2] This volume, then, is a welcomed attempt at just such a study.

  • Pastoral Care According to the Bishops of England and Wales (C.1170 – 1228)
    University of Cambridge Faculty of History PASTORAL CARE ACCORDING TO THE BISHOPS OF ENGLAND AND WALES (C.1170 – 1228) DAVID RUNCIMAN Fitzwilliam College, Cambridge Supervised by DR JULIE BARRAU Emmanuel College, Cambridge This dissertation is submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy January 2019 DECLARATION This dissertation is the result of my own work and includes nothing which is the outcome of work done in collaboration except as specified in the text. It is not substantially the same as any that I have submitted, or, is being concurrently submitted for a degree or diploma or other qualification at the University of Cambridge or any other University or similar. It does not exceed the prescribed word limit for the relevant Degree Committee. ABSTRACT DAVID RUNCIMAN ‘Pastoral care according to the bishops of England and Wales (c.1170-1228)’ Church leaders have always been seen as shepherds, expected to feed their flock with teaching, to guide them to salvation, and to preserve them from threatening ‘wolves’. In the late twelfth and early thirteenth centuries, ideas about the specifics of these pastoral duties were developing rapidly, especially in the schools of Paris and at the papal curia. Scholarly assessments of the bishops of England and Wales in this period emphasise their political and administrative activities, but there is growing interest in their pastoral role. In this thesis, the texts produced by these bishops are examined. These texts, several of which had been neglected, form a corpus of evidence that has never before been assembled. Almost all of them had a pastoral application, and thus they reveal how bishops understood and exercised their pastoral duties.

  • Exploring Paris Paris
    08_573640 ch05.qxd 10/20/04 9:35 PM Page 112 5 Exploring Paris Paris is a city where taking in the street life—shopping, strolling, and hanging out—should claim as much of your time as sightseeing in churches or museums. Having a picnic in the Bois de Boulogne, tak- ing a sunrise amble along the Seine, spending an afternoon at a flea market—Paris bewitches you with these kinds of experiences. For all the Louvre’s beauty, you’ll probably remember the Latin Quarter’s crooked alleyways better than the 370th oil painting of your visit. 1 Sightseeing Suggestions for the First-Timer The following suggested itineraries will allow first-time visitors to experience Paris’s highlights in only a few days. IF YOU HAVE 1 DAY Get up early and begin your day with some live theater by walking the streets around your hotel. Find a cafe and order a Parisian breakfast of coffee and croissants. If you’re a museum and monument junkie and don’t dare return home with- out seeing the “musts,” the top two museums are the Musée du Louvre and Musée d’Orsay, and the top three monuments are the Tour Eiffel, Arc de Triomphe, and Notre-Dame (which you can see later in the day). If it’s a toss-up between the Louvre and the d’Orsay, we’d choose the Louvre because it holds a greater variety of works. Among the monuments, we’d make it the Tour Eiffel for the panoramic view of the city. If your day is too short to visit museums or wait in line for the tower, we suggest you spend your time strolling the streets.

  • The Marian Pilgrimage: DAY FIFTEEN: Thursday 21 May 2020
    The Marian Pilgrimage: DAY FIFTEEN: Thursday 21 May 2020 Notre-Dame de Paris - France Notre-Dame de France - England Introduction: It had been my intention after the Ascension Masses to take the train south to London for a short break. The Coronavirus lock-down has changed many a travel plan. One of the attractions for me in London is attending Holy Mass at the Church of Notre-Dame de France. It has some wonderfully calm and spiritual qualities, that one can sit, and surrounded by enchanting, and inspiring Church art and be moved to interior thoughts and prayers. We could hardly ignore the great and magnificent ‘big sister’, in the heart of Paris, especially after the devastating fire of last year. The restoration work, and the rehabilitation of art works will be a sign of the optimistic resurgence that is at the heart of our Holy Faith. ‘For, with the old order destroyed, a universe cast down is renewed, and integrity of life is restored to us in Christ. Therefore, overCome with pasChal joy, every land, every people exults in your praise and even the heavenly Powers, with the angeliC hosts, sing together the unending hymn of your glory,..’ as they acClaim: Holy, Holy, Holy Lord God of hosts . Let us proceed in peace: So first to PARIS: Notre-Dame de Paris, "Our Lady of Paris" Notre-Dame de Paris is a medieval Cathedral on the Île de la Cité in the 4th arrondissement of Paris. The cathedral was consecrated to the Virgin Mary and is considered to be one of the finest examples of French Gothic architecture.
