History of the Franciscan Movement
HISTORY OF THE FRANCISCAN MOVEMENT Volume 2 FROM THE YEAR 1517 TO THE SECOND VATICAN COUNCIL On-line course in Franciscan History at Washington Theological Union Washington DC By Noel Muscat OFM Jerusalem 2008 History of the Franciscan Movement. Volume 2: From 1517 to the Second Vatican Council Chapter 10 NEW REFORMS AND NEW DIVISIONS: THE BIRTH OF THE CAPUCHINS AND REFORMS WITHIN THE OBSERVANCE The friars “of the Holy Gospel” The Order of Friars Minor of the Regular Observance, after the union of all the reformed families in 1517, became a powerful religious family dedicated mainly to apostolic missions. A minority of friars, however, continued to insist upon living a simpler Franciscan life in the hermitages. Besides the Amadeiti and Coletani, there were other congregations which preferred eremitical life, like the Clareni and the friars “of the Holy Gospel” or Capuciati. This last religious family was one which the Bulla Ite vos of Leo X (1517) had not managed to integrate within the Order of the Friars Minor of the Regular Observance. They were born, as we have already seen, with the initiative of Juan de la Puebla, who had made an experience of Franciscan life in the Umbrian hermitages of central Italy, and then had returned to Spain, founding a congregation of friars who lived the literal observance of the Rule in the hermitages. Among his followers there was Juan de Guadalupe, who in 1508 obtained the approval of the Province “of the Holy Gospel”.1 The negative reaction of the Spanish Observants, who persecuted the new religious family, compelled the brothers of the Custody of Estremadura to place themselves under the obedience of the Conventuals in 1515, and thus became to be known by the name of “Reformed Conventuals”.2 They wore a short tunic with a pyramidal hood, and hence also the name Capuciati. -

His family lived nearby the friary at remember the exact name of the book, it concentrated Baccanello. The Franciscan influence of this friary exclusively on Pope John XXIII and his ties to remained with him throughout his entire life. Franciscan Order. Speaking to a group of Franciscans in 1961 he said: When I had the opportunity to take a Franciscan “The friars minor are the closest to my life, because I Pilgrimage to Pope John XXIII’s birthhome, Sotto Il also am a Franciscan for a long time! In my family Monte near Bergamo in northern Italy, I translated home, when the window was opened in the morning, sections of this little book that show Angelo Roncalli’s the first church I saw was yours (Baccanello), down love for and connection with the Franciscan family.

Franciscans Mark 600Th Year of Pope Establishing Commissaries of Holy Land
Franciscans mark 600th year of pope establishing Commissaries of Holy Land WASHINGTON (CNS)(UPDATED) — Before he became guardian and commissary of the Franciscan Monastery of the Holy Land in Washington in 2013, Franciscan Father Larry Dunham made his first trip to the Holy Land, where his order has cared for the most sacred shrines of Christendom for centuries. The trip brought out the first fervor he felt when he became a priest, he told Catholic News Service Feb. 11. The Franciscans are the custodians of “the patrimony of our Church” and it was “deeply moving” to see firsthand “how incredible this work is,” said the 73-year-old friar. “Where Jesus was born, where Jesus walked, lived, did his ministry, suffered and died — this is the center of our faith and grounds us in our faith, the very foundations of our faith,” he added. Thinking about the people in the Holy Land as descendants of the first ones to have heard the word of God preached to them on the first Pentecost “gives me goose bumps,” he added. The work of the friars also “gives these people hope,” he said. The friars have never left them — despite violent clashes and political unrest that have plagued the region for time immemorial — and they continue to pour their lives out for them” with many good works. As one of the three monotheistic religions that call the Holy Land home, the Franciscans are also bridge-builders in a land of conflict. The Franciscans trace their presence in the Holy Land to 1217 when St. -
The Transculturation of Exile: Visual Style and Identity in the Frescoes of the Aula Maxima at St
The Transculturation of Exile 89 Chapter 3 The Transculturation of Exile: Visual Style and Identity in the Frescoes of the Aula Maxima at St. Isidore’s (1672) As you enter the Aula Maxima, or great hall, at St. Isidore’s Irish Franciscan College, your attention is immediately drawn to the four large portraits of the friar scholars along the eastern wall, from left to right: Luke Wadding (founder of the college), Anthony Hickey (Wadding’s assistant), John Colgan (student and master of studies at St. Anthony’s, Louvain, and editor of the Acta Sanc torum, 1645), and John Punch, (professor at St. Isidore’s) (figs. 3.1–3.4). Each wears the brown Franciscan habit and sandals and is seated at a desk, where texts are open for both reading and writing; at least three of them hold a pen in hand. Each is in a book-lined cell, where we can read some of the titles on the spines of the books that fill their shelves. Atop each portrait we can see a Latin epigram painted in italics, surrounded by a decorative golden border, also painted to give the illusion of a frame. Below each portrait is a biography of each sitter painted in Roman capitals that gives the illusion that they were cut into marble. The colors that predominate are the muted tan of the vellum of the book spines and the grey green of the walls, relieved only by the light com- ing from the windows depicted in Wadding’s and Hickey’s portraits and cast in shadows in those of Colgan and Punch. -

Calendar of Roman Events
Introduction Steve Worboys and I began this calendar in 1980 or 1981 when we discovered that the exact dates of many events survive from Roman antiquity, the most famous being the ides of March murder of Caesar. Flipping through a few books on Roman history revealed a handful of dates, and we believed that to fill every day of the year would certainly be impossible. From 1981 until 1989 I kept the calendar, adding dates as I ran across them. In 1989 I typed the list into the computer and we began again to plunder books and journals for dates, this time recording sources. Since then I have worked and reworked the Calendar, revising old entries and adding many, many more. The Roman Calendar The calendar was reformed twice, once by Caesar in 46 BC and later by Augustus in 8 BC. Each of these reforms is described in A. K. Michels’ book The Calendar of the Roman Republic. In an ordinary pre-Julian year, the number of days in each month was as follows: 29 January 31 May 29 September 28 February 29 June 31 October 31 March 31 Quintilis (July) 29 November 29 April 29 Sextilis (August) 29 December. The Romans did not number the days of the months consecutively. They reckoned backwards from three fixed points: The kalends, the nones, and the ides. The kalends is the first day of the month. For months with 31 days the nones fall on the 7th and the ides the 15th. For other months the nones fall on the 5th and the ides on the 13th. -

Kathy Hart, MUHS librarian, was most helpful in suggesting sources. I further thank Gaylan DuBose, Ed Long, Hugh Himwich, Susan Schearer, Gardy Warren, and Kaye Warren for their encouragement and advice. My former students and now Classics professors Daniel Curley and Anthony Hollingsworth also deserve mention for their advice, assistance, and friendship. My student Michael Kocorowski encouraged and provoked me into beginning this dictionary. Certamen players Michael Fleisch, James Ruel, Jeff Tudor, and Ryan Thom were inspirations. Sue Smith provided advice. James Radtke, James Beaudoin, Richard Hallberg, Sylvester Kreilein, and James Wilkinson assisted with words from modern foreign languages. Without the advice of these and many others this dictionary could not have been compiled. Lastly I thank all my colleagues and students at Marquette University High School who have made my teaching career a joy.
