  • The First Three Commandments in the Polish Catholic Catechisms of the 1560S–1570S
    CHAPTER 11 Man and God: The First Three Commandments in the Polish Catholic Catechisms of the 1560s–1570s Waldemar Kowalski Catechism: A New Tool in Religious Instruction The sixteenth century brought a number of fundamental and far-reaching changes in the Polish Church’s approach to the cura animarum (cure of souls). In practice, the laity previously had cursory access to the fundamentals of the faith. From the end of the Middle Ages up until the mid-seventeenth century, elementary catechesis was limited to the repetition of the Pater noster, Credo, Ave Maria and the Decalogue before the Sunday Mass. An average priest was able to mobilize his parishioners to repeat the Ten Commandments and to memorize the relevant verses, following synodical recommendations. It was a far more difficult task, however, to explain convincingly the moral obligations arising from them. Hypothetically these rudiments of faith were taught more effectively during the second half of the sixteenth century.1 One of the expla- nations for these changes was the relative growth in the ranks of the educated laity. This was also at least partly due to the proliferation of printed catechisms. They were composed and published with a view to explaining and promot- ing the principles of the faith in opposition to Lutheran and, later, Reformed attempts to evangelize the population. The fight against ‘heresy’, the reason for which the provincial synod in Piotrków convened in 1525, was thereafter to become part of a wider reform programme within the Church.2 Such a 1 For a thorough discussion of the possibilities and limitations of religious education at the turn of the modern age, see: Bylina S., Religijność późnego średniowiecza (Warsaw: 2009) 26–38.

Their Nation Dishonored, the Queen Shamed, and Country Undone: Feuding, Factionalism, and Religion in the Chaseabout Raid Abstract The mid-sixteenth century witnessed religious and political upheaval across much of Western Europe, particularly in the British Isles. In 1565, a good portion of the Scottish nobility rebelled against their sovereign, Mary, Queen of Scots. The roles played and decisions made by the nobles during this revolt, known as the Chaseabout Raid, provide important insights concerning the converging issues of feuding, factionalism, and religion in Scotland. My reconstructed narrative of the Chaseabout Raid indicates that there were, in fact, no firm factions determined yb ideology, but rather shifting allegiances in the midst of conflict, determined yb complex and interrelated factors, personalities, and motivations. The primary motivation for the coalitions formed during the Chaseabout Raid was selfish personal ambition—base desire for individual gain still superseded any proto-nationalistic ideas or purely ideological commitments.

  • Saints, All Hallows Day” © by the Reverend Alison W
    Unitarian Universalist Fellowship of Athens The Reverend Alison Wilbur Eskildsen, Parish Minister The Reverend Don Randall, Community Minister “All Saints, All Hallows Day” © by the Reverend Alison W. Eskildsen A sermon delivered on November 1, 2015 At the Unitarian Universalist Fellowship of Athens, GA Centering Thoughts You should be holy. Leviticus 19:2 Keep in mind that our community is not composed of those who are already saints, but of those who are trying to become saints. Therefore let us be extremely patient with each other's faults and failures. Mother Theresa We find saints everywhere and in all times. Representing the ripe fruits of religion, they incarnate the divine and bring its love, goodness, and spiritual climate down to earth for all of us to enjoy. Manuela Dunn-Mascetti, SAINTS: THE CHOSEN FEW Sermon Happy New Year! According to many historians, in the pre-Christian Celtic calendar, Halloween, a shortened form of Hallowed Evening, marks the end of one year and the beginning of another, much like our New Year’s Eve on December 31st. Halloween divides the seasons of summer and winter. We moderns also begin a new year of sorts by resetting our clocks to Eastern Standard Time and acknowledging that darkness is defeating daylight with shorter days and chillier nights. On Halloween, Celtic tradition says the veil, that which divides the living from the dead, becomes perilously thin. That thinness makes it possible for the living and dead to cross over into each other’s realm. The spirits of those who have died during the year are especially likely to be roaming this world, their spirits not yet able to find their way to the realm of the dead.

  • Before Shakespeare: the Drama of the 1580S Andy Kesson (University of Roehampton)
    Before Shakespeare: The Drama of the 1580s Andy Kesson (University of Roehampton) Beioley "Who is it that knowes me not by my partie coloured head?": Playing the Vice in the 1580s Abstract: The 1580s is a significant decade for the Vice tradition, as it is conventionally regarded as the period in which allegorical drama declined, and therefore as heralding the decline of the “proper” Vice figure. As Alan Dessen has noted, “Most scholars accept Bernard Spivack’s formulation that, except for an occasional throwback, the period after 1590 ‘marks the dead end and dissolution of the allegorical drama, at least on the popular stage’” (Allegorical Action and Elizabethan Staging 391). In the conception of those who follow Spivack's thinking, then, the 1580s can thus be seen as the crossroads between the more allegorical Vices of Tudor drama, and later characters like Richard of Gloucester who embody or evoke some of the Vice's characteristics, often while drawing attention to this influence as Richard himself does: “Thus, like the formal Vice, Iniquity, / I moralize two meanings in one word.” Such borders, however, are never neat, and in this paper I will challenge this somewhat teleological portrayal of the Vice's development through an examination of the 1581 play The Three Ladies of London, and its 1588 “sequel” The Three Lords and Three Ladies of London, and consider the ways in which the 1580s affected the expression of the Vice figure as it continued to develop and change.

  • Post-Reformation Culture
    1 Post-Reformation Culture Once upon a time the people of England were happy Medieval Catholics, visiting their holy wells, attending frequent masses, and deeply respectful of Purgatory and afraid of Hell. Then lustful King Henry forced them to abandon their religion. England was never merry again. Alternatively, once upon a time the people of England were oppressed by corrupt churchmen. They yearned for the liberty of the Gospel. Then, Good King Harry gave them the Protestant nation for which they longed. Neither of these myths is about real people, though our historiographies are still caught up in disputes about which is right. They are the myths created by conflicting parties and creeds in the aftermath of the Reformation. The sixteenth-century generations caught in the vast social upheaval that changed English religion could not experience it as pious myths and simple histories have portrayed it. For them the story was more individual, more complex, more difficult to tell. When I think of those people, I invite myself to a wedding feast in the late 1570s. There they sit, three generations of family and friends met to celebrate the union that would produce a fourth generation. The eldest participants had been genuinely Medieval Christians, the Reformation coming in their middle age. Their children, born in the 1520s or 1530s, had religious habits formed in the confusing 1540s, only to see them further confused by the wild variations of the 1550s. The marrying couple, remembering only the late 1550s and 1560s, were different again. Ideologically these people should not have been able to speak with one another.

  • Deprived Cathedral Clergy and English Catholicism, 1553-1574’ (Mphil Thesis, Cambridge, 2015)
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Apollo 1 THE ORIGINS OF RECUSANCY IN ELIZABETHAN ENGLAND RECONSIDERED FREDERICK E. SMITH Clare College, University of Cambridge ABSTRACT. Most historians now acknowledge that Catholic recusancy existed in small pockets throughout 1560s and early 1570s England thanks to the sporadic efforts of a handful of former Marian priests. However, it is widely agreed that the influx of continentally trained seminarians and missionaries from abroad after 1574 was responsible for transforming the ‘curious and confused’ activities of these Marian clergymen into a fully fledged, intellectually justified campaign in favour of non-conformity. This article challenges this consensus through investigation of a neglected group of clerics – the cathedral clergy of Mary I’s reign. Drawing on insights emerging from recent research into the nature of Mary’s church, it demonstrates how these clerics became key agents in the so-called ‘invention of the Counter-Reformation’ in Marian England. It suggests that this ‘upbringing’ gave these priests the determination and skills to become leaders of a co-ordinated campaign in favour of principled non-conformity following Elizabeth’s accession. Far from lacking the zeal of their seminary and missionary counterparts, this study sees the former cathedral clergy imitating the practices of their adversaries and anticipating the strategies of the later English mission in order to promote recusancy throughout England from as early as 1560. On 24 June 1559, less than a year after the state-sponsored restoration of English Catholicism came to an abrupt end with the death of Mary Tudor, Elizabeth I’s government passed ‘An act for the uniformity of common prayer and divine service’.

  • PRESS RELEASE from the FRICK COLLECTION
    ARCHIVED PRESS RELEASE from THE FRICK COLLECTION 1 EAST 70TH STREET • NEW YORK • NEW YORK 10021 • TELEPHONE (212) 288-0700 • FAX (212) 628-4417 ENAMELS ROOM REOPENS JULY 25 FEATURING AN IMPORTANT ADDITION TO THE DECORATIVE ARTS COLLECTION: REMARKABLE MAIOLICA CHARGER After nearly two months of refurbishment, the Enamels Room at The Frick Collection reopens on July 25. This diminutive but impressive gallery, with its display akin to a Renaissance collector’s cabinet, features a gathering of about twenty-five objects—among them enamels, bronzes, and clocks—as well as Renaissance paintings by Barna da Siena, Cimabue, Duccio, Gentile da Fabriano, Piero della Francesca, and Paolo and Giovanni Veneziano. For the first time, the public also will be able to view a remarkable gift to the museum, a mid-sixteenth- century maiolica charger from the Fontana workshop. This object, which was once part of the important collection formed Maiolica dish with The Judgment of Paris after Raphael, Fontana by Adolphe de Rothschild, fills a significant gap in the Frick’s workshop, c. 1565, tin-glazed earthenware, The Frick Collection, gift of Dianne Modestini in memory of her late husband, Mario Modestini holdings. Comments Director Anne Poulet, “We are grateful to Dianne Modestini, who has made this generous gift in memory of her late husband Mario Modestini. While many collectors in the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries were enthusiasts of maiolica, Henry Clay Frick never purchased any examples. Yet this charger fits in beautifully with our holdings. Mr. Frick was deeply interested in decorative arts from the Renaissance, such as Limoges enamels, the French counterpart to maiolica.
