  • Religious Consecration and the Solemnity of the Vow in Thomas Aquinas’S Works

    Religious Consecration and the Solemnity of the Vow in Thomas Aquinas’S Works

    Mirator 19:1 (2018) 32 Towards a Sacralization of Religious Vows? Religious Consecration and the Solemnity of the Vow in Thomas Aquinas’s Works AGNÈS DESMAZIÈRES homas Aquinas most likely took the Dominican cloth in 1244, in Naples, against the will of This parents who had destined him to the well-established Benedictine convent of the Monte Cassino, where he had been schooled. Kidnapped by his brothers, he spent two years imprisoned in the family castles of Montesangiovanni and Roccasecca, before being released and joining again the Dominicans. The various biographers of Thomas Aquinas granted importance to this episode, relating it with lively and epic details. Marika Räsänen has skillfully demonstrated how the episode of Thomas’s change of clothing was crucial in the construction of the ‘Dominican identity’ in a time when the Order of Preachers was struggling recruiting new candidates.1 Yet, I would highlight in this article a complementary issue: when Thomas Aquinas entered the Dominican Order, the doctrine and rites of incorporation to a religious order were still in a phase of elaboration. Thomas’s doctrine itself evolved significant- ly, moving from a juridical conception of religious vows, characteristic of his early writings, to a sacral one, inspired by a return to patristic and monastic traditions, in his later works. In the first centuries after Christ, the monk accomplished his integration to the monastery through a simple change of clothing, which intervened after a period of probation, lasting from a few days to a full year. At first, the commitment to a monastic rule was only tacit.

Thank you for your support. Please consider a donation to Road to Emmaus by visiting the Donate page on our website. WHERE THE CROSS DIVIDES THE ROAD: THOUGHTS ON ORTHODOXY AND ISLAM In Part II of a wide-ranging interview, Dr. George Bebawi speaks of his experience of Orthodoxy in England with Russian Orthodox émigrés, clergy, and theologians; his concern about the vul- nerability of Christian youth in the West; and his observations on Judaism and Islam in relation to Orthodoxy. Born in Egypt in 1938, Dr. George graduated from the Coptic Orthodox Theological College in Cairo after a rich spiritual youth spent in the company of contemporary 20th-century Coptic Egyptian desert fathers of Cairo and Scetis. (See Road to Emmaus, Summer, 2009, Issue 38). He went on to attend Cambridge University on scholarship, where he studied Theology, Patristics, and Biblical Criticism, receiving an M.Lit and Ph.D at Cambridge University in 1970. Dr. George taught Theology, Patristics, Church History, and Islamic studies at Orthodox, Catholic and Prot- estant seminaries in Europe, the Middle East, and the United States. His hopes for Christian unity also motivated him to serve on various committees of the World Council of Churches and in the Secretariat for Christian Unity at the Vatican.

Box 227 East Bridgewater, Mass. 02333 USA [email protected] http://satucket.com Concerning the Service Christian marriage is a solemn and public covenant between a man and a woman in the presence of God. In the Episcopal Church it is required that one, at least, of the parties must be a baptized Christian; that the ceremony be attested by at least two witnesses; and that the marriage conform to the laws of the State and the canons of this Church. A priest or a bishop normally presides at the Celebration and Blessing of a Marriage, because such ministers alone have the function of pronouncing the nuptial blessing, and of celebrating the Holy Eucharist.
