  • The Failure of the Protestant Reformation in Italy

    The Failure of the Protestant Reformation in Italy

    The Failure of the Protestant Reformation in Italy: Through the Eyes Adam Giancola of the Waldensian Experience The Failure of the Protestant Reformation in Italy: Through the Eyes of the Waldensian Experience Adam Giancola In the wake of the Protestant Reformation, the experience of many countries across Europe was the complete overturning of traditional institutions, whereby religious dissidence became a widespread phenomenon. Yet the focus on Reformation history has rarely been given to countries like Italy, where a strong Catholic presence continued to persist throughout the sixteenth century. In this regard, it is necessary to draw attention to the ‘Italian Reformation’ and to determine whether or not the ideas of the Reformation in Western Europe had any effect on the religious and political landscape of the Italian peninsula. In extension, there is also the task to understand why the Reformation did not ‘succeed’ in Italy in contrast to the great achievements it made throughout most other parts of Western Europe. In order for these questions to be addressed, it is necessary to narrow the discussion to a particular ‘Protestant’ movement in Italy, that being the Waldensians. In an attempt to provide a general thesis for the ‘failure’ of the Protestant movement throughout Italy, a particular look will be taken at the Waldensian case, first by examining its historical origins as a minority movement pre-dating the European Reformation, then by clarifying the Waldensian experience under the sixteenth century Italian Inquisition, and finally, by highlighting the influence of the Counter-Reformation as pivotal for the future of Waldensian survival. Perhaps one of the reasons why the Waldensian experience differed so greatly from mainstream European reactions has to do with its historical development, since in many cases it pre-dated the rapid changes of the sixteenth century.

It will be alive to the best writing of a transnational and comparative nature and will cross canonical chronological divides of the Central Middle Ages, the Late Middle Ages and the Early Modern Period. Renaissance History, Art and Culture intends to spark new ideas and encourage debate on the meanings, extent and influence of the Renaissance within the broader European world. It encourages engagement by scholars across disciplines – history, literature, art history, musicology, and possibly the social sciences – and focuses on ideas and collective mentalities as social, political, and cultural movements that shaped a changing world from ca 1250 to 1650.

    THE ONE VISIBLE DIVINELY INSTITUTED CATHOLIC CHURCH AND THE CHALLENGES OF UNITY Robert P. Marko, Ph.D., 2015-16 Fulbright Scholar, Ukrainian Catholic Unversity Abstract Unlike the Protestant reformers of the sixteenth century, such as John Calvin, who saw the Church of Rome as a mere “vestige” or ruin of the Church of Christ, Catholicism has maintained that the concrete historical visible reality of the Church of Christ is found in the Catholic Church. In the words of Robert Bellarmine: "the Church is only one, and not two; and that one and true [Church] is the assembly of men (women) gathered in the profession of the same Christian faith, and in the communion of the same sacraments, under the reign of legitimate pastors, and especially of the one vicar of Christ on earth, the Roman Pontiff." In the visible Catholic Church, there is fullness of doctrine, true sacraments and legitimate authority. The official decrees of Vatican II, specifically Lumen Gentium and Unitatis Redintegratio continue the Bellarmine definition of Church that was popularized in Catholic catechesis for centuries. However, the decrees reflect a significant change in tone and recognize elements of the Church of Christ outside of full incorporation in Catholicism. This understanding of Church as a visible, historical reality "subsisting" in the Catholic Church is not without challenges to full communion of Christians. Key words: This short article deals with the classic definition of the Church, found in the Catholic or Counter Reformation theologian and cardinal, Robert Bellarmine in his Disputations on the Controversies of the Christian Faith, Vol II and how that definition of the visible, institutional nature of the community of believers is the official position of Catholicism.

Key components in any National Directory for Catechesis are an analysis of the local situation in relation to catechesis and a programme of action. Relevant principles on pedagogy/methodology and a summary of the content of Faith may helpfully be included. All aspects of the National Directory must be faithful to the Church’s guidance, most particularly, the General Directory for Catechesis2 and Catechism of the Catholic Church3 , which are the standards of reference for pedagogy/methodology and content. This Review of Share the Good News (SGN) by Dr Éanna Johnson follows on from his involvement in this project since it was announced in 2005 as 'Dialogue in Faith', inviting interested parties to make submissions to help preparation of the new National Directory.
  • Eastern Catholic Catechesis in the United States

    Eastern Catholic Catechesis in the United States

    Logos: A Journal of Eastern Christian Studies Vol. 40 (1999) Nos. 1–4, pp. 299–304 Eastern Catholic Catechesis in the United States John Kachuba Abstract (Українське резюме на ст. 304) In the first of three presentations on Eastern Catholic Catechesis, Fr. John Kachuba provides a brief history of the development of catechetical structures and resources for East- ern Catholics in North America. Beginning with the early 1970’s, Eastern Catholics of both the Byzantine and Syriac traditions began working together towards an “Eastern Chris- tian Formation and Development Program.” As the years progressed, specific elementary school-level programs were developed, corresponding to the respective traditions of the Churches from the East. In an effort to coordinate resources more effectively, eparchial directors formed the Eastern Catholic Conference of Diocesan Directors (ECDD), which later became a committee of the Eastern Catholic Associates, at the level of the United States National Conference of Catholic Bishops. The ECDD continues to produce materials, which serve not only to educate Eastern Catholics in their own faith and traditions, but also teach Roman Catholics about the existence and gifts of the Eastern Churches. I would like to present to you a brief history of catechesis in the Eastern Catholic Churches in the United States and some of our accomplishments and our goals. As you know, catechesis continues the teaching mission of Jesus Christ. In the Gospels, Jesus is seen many times teach- ing the crowds, his followers and his apostles. After Pentecost the Apostles proclaimed to the world what they had heard, seen and believed. 300 John Kachuba Catechesis of the people of God continues to this very day.

  • Universalist Aspirations of the Utraquist Church

    Universalist Aspirations of the Utraquist Church

    194 Zdeněk V. David Universalist Aspirations of the Utraquist Church Zdeněk V. David (Washington, D.C.) An important legacy of Utraquism to the subsequent Czech political culture was its universalist outlook. This conclusion may appear paradoxical consider - ing that the national accent seemed so strong in the Bohemian Reformation and especially during the Bohemian religious wars. Such an assumption of national exclusivity led to the mistaken view that the Bohemians might be sat - isfied with an exceptional ecclesiastical status, as Rome saw it at the Council of Basel in 1434-1436 and in the issuance of a special privilege of the lay chalice for the Bohemians by Pope Pius IV in 1564. These tactics of appeasement, however, failed. They ignored the basic fact that the Bohemians’ goal was to reform the (Western) Church as a whole. In the eyes of the Utraquists, the purpose of the Czech nation was not to assert a peculiar set of ethnically grounded beliefs, but to serve as a vehicle for the realisation of a universal purpose. Subsequently, this outlook harmonised with the cosmopolitan character of the Enlighten - ment and eventually with that of political liberalism. In an earlier article, I discussed the Utraquist legacy of liberal ecclesiology. 1 In this paper the Utraquists’ universalism is treated in terms of their contin - ued, albeit qualified, attachment to the Roman Church, as well as their rela - tionship to other groups that sought to reform the entire scope of Western Christendom along the lines of liberal Catholicism. 2 This essay also seeks to answer the charges that the Utraquists’ ambition to reform the Church of Rome revealed signs of sycophancy, quixotic idiosyncrasy, and megalomania in their actions.
