THE CATHOLIC UNIVERSITY OF AMERICA St George’s Day: A Cultural History A DISSERTATION Submitted to the Faculty of the Department of History School of Arts and Science Of The Catholic University of America In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements For the Degree Doctor of Philosophy © Copyright All Rights Reserved By Hanael P. Bianchi Washington, D.C. 2011 St George’s Day: A Cultural History Hanael P. Bianchi, Ph.D. Director: Laura E. Nym Mayhall, Ph.D. The modern celebration of St. George’s Day, frequently associated with intense English nationalism, grew out of a religious feast that commemorated a Middle-Eastern individual who died protesting an intolerant empire. Historians and journalists have looked to the medieval period to explain how this foreigner inspired the national holiday of England, neglecting the five hundred years from the Reformation to the present. This project is the first examination of the modern holiday, and it argues that St. George’s Day was first celebrated as a nationalistic holiday in eighteenth-century North America and was only introduced into England at the end of the nineteenth century. Situated in the crossroads of cultural history and holiday studies, this study examines the changing meaning of rituals on St. George’s Day: religious liturgies, ridings of St. George, feasts of the Order of the Garter, and annual dinners of St. George’s societies. The investigation maintains that the holiday rose in prominence as a religious feast day during the medieval period with different segments of society celebrating St. George under a variety of identities: clergy honored a martyr, knights a warrior, and commoners a dragon- slayer. Participants, however, venerated him primarily as a saint in order to avoid time in purgatory, be cured of illness, win a battle, or gain his protection. The Reformation ended St. George’s Day as a religious holiday, but it inspired a new version of St. George. Protestant reformers and Enlightenment thinkers attacked the existence of a real St. George, which enabled sixteenth-century authors to reinvent the saint as a mythical figure native to England and representing the nation. Ethnic societies dedicated to St. George in eighteenth- century America revived the celebration of St. George’s Day, and these celebrations honored St. George as the ideal Englishman, not as a real person. Moreover, the principal purpose of the holiday shifted from seeking supernatural aid to increasing devotion to England. The holiday only reappeared in England as a national celebration in the 1890s. Festivities climaxed during the interwar years, but fell from favor after World War II, only to experience a minor revival in the last two decades. This dissertation by Hanael P. Bianchi fulfills the dissertation requirement for the doctoral degree in history approved by Laura E. Nym Mayhall, Ph.D., as Director, and by Owen Stanwood, Ph.D., and Jerry Z.

Epilogue……………….………………………………………….………...………285 Bibliography……………………………….……………………………………...……….304 v Chapter One Introduction Every year, the English celebrate St. George‘s Day as their national holiday. The day is meant to celebrate all things English, but amid the ale and fish and chips, St. George appears as an unusual English symbol. He has no inherent connection to England. He was not born there, nor did he ever visit it. Though his origins are unclear, he is most often said to have lived far from England in Turkey and Palestine. In addition, the feast of a Christian martyr of uncertain origins makes an improbable holiday for a secular Protestant nation, and for centuries, English Protestants and secularists have scrutinized the legends of St. George with his apparitions during the Crusades and mythical encounter with the dragon. The oddity of the marriage between St. George and England has caused many English revelers to wonder how April 23 became their national holiday. Scholars have often looked to the medieval period to explain the rise of St. George‘s Day. They have argued that the Crusades and the Hundred Years‘ War led to greater devotion to St. George and that the declarations of the Synod of Oxford (1222) and the Province of Canterbury (1415), which allegedly elevated the feast of St. George to a major holy day in England, initiated April 23 as England‘s national holiday. Historians have also exhaustively chronicled medieval festivities, including religious liturgies, popular ridings of St. George, and the great feast of the Order of the Garter, but they have neglected the period after the Reformation. This analysis fails to deal with the predicament that the medieval 1 2 feast of St. George differs greatly from the modern, nationalistic celebration of St. George‘s Day, and it also neglects several hundred years of history. This study argues that the medieval feast of St. George does not adequately explain the rise of St. George‘s Day as the national holiday of England and that the period after the Reformation was a time of great change in the meaning of April 23, setting the groundwork for the modern holiday. During the Middle Ages, St. George appeared in many guises as a martyr, knight, and dragon-slayer. Yet, he was seen by all ultimately as a saint, and his feast day was an occasion to venerate him in order to gain his intercession. As his cult grew at the end of the medieval period, St. George became the patron and protector of the country, and his feast was widely celebrated throughout England. It is, however, anachronistic to claim that April 23 became the national holiday of England during the medieval period, or that it celebrated the nation. The Reformation initiated the decline of St. George‘s Day, but his image was altered in a way that enabled the modern revival of April 23. Unlike prior transformations of St. George which added new layers to the saint‘s image, religious reformers and Enlightenment scholars successfully attacked and removed the most essential element of St. George during the medieval period, his status as a saint and martyr. St. George retained his image as a knight and dragon-slayer, and free from his Middle-Eastern roots, he was viewed increasingly as a mythical figure native to England. In short, he began to represent England and the ideal Englishmen. When English colonists in North America revived the celebration of St. George‘s Day in the eighteenth century, they celebrated the feast of the ideal Englishman, not a martyr. Undoubtedly, the medieval feast played a necessary role in the resurgence of St. George‘s Day in the twentieth century, but without 3 the history of the last five hundred years, modern celebrations focused on English nationalism would be unintelligible. Even though St. George‘s Day has experienced a resurgence of interest, the celebration of his day has been marked by a feeling of apathy and confusion over his status as patron of England. A poll by This England in 2009 revealed that seven out of ten young people did not know the date of St.

    Steadfast and Shrewd Heroines: the Defence of Chastity in the Latin Post-Nicene Passions and the Greek Novels

    Steadfast and shrewd heroines: the defence of chastity in the Latin post-Nicene passions and the Greek novels ANNELIES BOSSU Ghent University 1. Introduction Over the past decades, the disparaging opinion of the Greek ‘ideal’ novels which goes back to at least Rohde’s pioneer modern study of 18761 has been abandoned: they are no longer viewed as literary inferior texts. Together with this renewed and favourable attention, research into the novels’ inter- connections with other ancient narrative texts increased. Unsurprisingly, the interplay with the Roman novel was explored. It has been argued that Petro- nius parodied the Greek novels2 and attention has been drawn to thematic and structural correspondences between the Greek novels and both Apuleius’ Metamorphoses3 and the Historia Apollonii Regis Tyri.4 Whereas the Chris- tian overtone in the latter work is debated,5 the novels’ interaction with ————— 1 Rohde 1876. 2 This thesis was first raised by Heinze in 1899 and has received wide acceptance since, see e.g. Conte 1996, esp. 31-34 on his adaptation of Heinze’s thesis. For objections against the thesis, see Morgan 2009, 40-47. 3 See e.g. the contributions of Brethes, Frangoulidis, Harrison, and Smith to Paschalis, Frangoulidis, Harrison, Zimmerman 2007. 4 See Schmeling 20032, 540-544 on both similarities and dissimilarities between the Histo- ria Apollonii (HA) and the Greek novels, especially Xenophon of Ephesus’ Ephesiaca. 5 On the HA as a Christian product, see Kortekaas 1984, 101-106, 116-118, and 2004, 17- 24, and Hexter 1988, 188.

    Tinctoris's Minimum Opus

    Tinctoris’s Minimum Opus ROB C. WEGMAN (Princeton University) he story has long been known and often been told: as a student at the TUniversity at Orléans, Johannes Tinctoris made a fool of himself.1 Proud of his accomplishments, and pleased especially with his literary prowess, he allowed his vanity to slip through and leave a permanent record, in full view of all posterity, in a document that would survive the centuries. That document, which is still kept at Orléans today, is precious for several reasons – not the least of which is that it is the only surviving text written in the theorist’s own hand. Yet what makes it truly invaluable is what he reveals about himself, intentionally and, perhaps, unintentionally. The text has been transcribed and edited by several modern scholars, and the facts of the case are well known.2 Yet the story they tell remains a footnote to the larger story of Tinctoris’s life. My aim in the pages that follow is to take another close look at the text, and to give it more of the interpretive scrutiny that we are accustomed to give to other documents from this period. Like so many medieval texts, the Orléans document raises questions that may not be obvious in a face-value reading. Indeed, upon sustained scrutiny we may soon find ourselves wondering what, exactly, is the story it tells, how much of a fool Tinctoris really made of himself, and who, ultimately, has the last laugh. Before delving into those questions, however, let us begin by recapitulating the story, and providing some of the context necessary to analyze it.

    The Evolution of the Roman Calendar Dwayne Meisner, University of Regina

    The Evolution of the Roman Calendar Dwayne Meisner, University of Regina Abstract The Roman calendar was first developed as a lunar | 290 calendar, so it was difficult for the Romans to reconcile this with the natural solar year. In 45 BC, Julius Caesar reformed the calendar, creating a solar year of 365 days with leap years every four years. This article explains the process by which the Roman calendar evolved and argues that the reason February has 28 days is that Caesar did not want to interfere with religious festivals that occurred in February. Beginning as a lunar calendar, the Romans developed a lunisolar system that tried to reconcile lunar months with the solar year, with the unfortunate result that the calendar was often inaccurate by up to four months. Caesar fixed this by changing the lengths of most months, but made no change to February because of the tradition of intercalation, which the article explains, and because of festivals that were celebrated in February that were connected to the Roman New Year, which had originally been on March 1. Introduction The reason why February has 28 days in the modern calendar is that Caesar did not want to interfere with festivals that honored the dead, some of which were Past Imperfect 15 (2009) | © | ISSN 1711-053X | eISSN 1718-4487 connected to the position of the Roman New Year.

Please visit ruskinprize.co.uk/manchester instead. Who Was John Ruskin? John Ruskin was undoubtedly a fascinating character, one of the most famous art critics of the Victorian era. His many talents included philosophy, philanthropy, and writing. His books spanned many genres, including geology, myths, and literature. Ruskin's Personal Life. Ruskin had a complex personality and today would be described as bipolar, as he often suffered bouts of depression. For long periods, the state of his mental health rendered him powerless to do anything. His first relationship was a failure. He was said to be disgusted by his wife's body, leading to a divorce on the grounds of consummation not having happened. A second love affair was marred by tragedy as the object of his affections died of anorexia at the age of 27. Ruskin's Books. A prolific writer, Ruskin, published several important works on a great many subjects. His first volume of Modern Painters was a very influential piece, written when he was only 24. His alternative views on popular artists brought him to the attention of the art establishment. The Stones of Venice was published in 1851 and discussed Ruskin's love of Venice and its architecture. His beliefs that the classical style represented a need to control civilisation are still studied today. There is much to learn about John Ruskin, and there is a museum dedicated to him, located in the Lake District.

George’s own enthusiasm and love for St. Andrew made our long months of working together more than an assignment, it became a shared pilgrimage. BEGINNINGS RTE: George, please tell us about your background and how you began this epic project of reconstructing St. Andrew’s journeys. GEORGE: Yes, but before I begin, I have to say that at certain times in my life I’ve been very blind. I can speak about the Taliban, about international pol- icy, about government leaders, but I’m not righteous enough to speak or write about St. Andrew. This is how I feel and I must say so at the beginning. My background is that I went to the university as one of the best students in Greece, but dropped out to become a hippie and a traveler, a fighter for the ecological movement, and then just an “easy rider.” When I returned to Greece, by chance, or perhaps God’s will, I turned to journalism and was Mosaic of St. Andrew, Cathedral of Holy Apostle Andrew, Patras, Greece. 3 Road to Emmaus Vol. V, No. 4 (#19) the astonishing missionary journeys of the apostle andrew quite successful.

    ST GEORGE’S CHAPEL ARCHIVES & CHAPTER LIBRARY Research guides No.1 The Order of the Garter Foundation and composition The Most Noble Order of the Garter, the oldest surviving Order of Chivalry in the world, was founded by Edward III in or just before 1348. St George’s Chapel, Windsor Castle, became and remains the spiritual home of the Order and holds the annual Service of Thanksgiving on Garter Day which is attended by the Sovereign and Companions of the Order. The origins of the Order’s blue garter and motto, ‘Honi Soit Qui Mal Y Pense’ (Shame on Him Who Thinks Evil of It), are uncertain. The date of the foundation of the Order of the Garter is a subject of historiographical controversy, largely due to the absence of early records of the Order. The French chronicler Froissart, writing between 1370 and 1400 and drawing upon the account of the English ecclesiastic Adam of Murimuth, claimed that the foundation of the Order coincided with the feast held by Edward III at Windsor Castle in January or February of 1344. At this feast, according to Murimuth, Edward had declared an intention to establish a Round Table of three hundred knights ‘in the same manner and estate as the Lord Arthur, formerly King of England’. It is now widely believed that Froissart wrongly conflated the events of the feast held in 1344 with the actual foundation of the Order of the Garter, which occurred later in the 1340s and possibly coincided with the establishment of the College of St George, Windsor, in 1348.
