The second UCL campus is located in Brussels itself and is home to the Medical Faculty and a university hos- pital. From Brussels, high-speed trains will take you to Paris, London or Amsterdam in less than two hours and from Brussels National Airport or Brussels South Charleroi Airport you can travel anywhere in the world. UCL has a long tradition of welcoming foreign students. Indeed, towards the end of the 15th century, UCL enrolled a student who had come from the Netherlands to further his studies in philosophy. His name was Erasmus! A UNIVERSITY WITH A PRESTIGIOUS HISTORY Founded in 1425, UCL is one of Europe’s oldest universities. Erasmus, Mercator and Vesale are just some of it’s alumni.

While it may appear to have little signifi cance, it serves nevertheless as an interesting point of departure for our study of the preparatory phases of Vatican II. A closer examination of the notes taken on the occasion by dean Joseph Coppens2 reveals that a circular letter from Cardinal Domenico Tardini3 had apparently been addressed to the rectors of the Catholic universities. Leuven’s rector van Waeyenbergh4 did little more than pass the letter—which invited the theological faculties of the Roman Catholic universities to make their wishes known to the Antepre- paratory Conciliar Commission5—on to the dean of the Th eology 1 CSVII ASFT, 1957–62, p. 44. 2 Joseph Coppens (1896–1981), priest of the diocese of Ghent, professor of Biblical Exegesis at the Leuven Th eological Faculty and dean of the Faculty.

  • Vincent Blondel the #Uclouvain Experience
    Vincent Blondel The #UCLouvain experience Rector Candidate 2019 - 2024 A strong track record. An ambitious project. Five years ago, you entrusted me to become the rector of our university. Together, we carried out most of the electoral program, which was carried out under the Lou- vain 2020 project. At the end of this first mandate, it is now time to look back. Together we have ac- complished great deal. These five years as rector by your side have been an im- mense privilege. It was intense and demanding, but I did not regret it for a second. I have received a lot of positive feedback and support to continue, with you, the work that has been done for five years. For this second mandate, I have built my program by consulting many members of the university community. Thanks to these exchanges, this program has gradually been prepared, based both on the results of what I have achieved and on the desire to go further. My program, with 131 proposals, is structured around three axes: ∙ a university dedicated to each of its members, with a priority for well-being at work ∙ a strong and stable university, both internally and externally ∙ an open university, a leader for social change, with proposals to foster a society in transition. Today, I am proud of what we have built together over the last five years. I want to continue to put my experience and energy at the service of our university. I want to contribute, with you, to a future worthy of its prestigious past and to shape it a place of excellence, inclusive, open to the world and a source of fulfilment for all.

Maricel S. Ibita Introduction My heartfelt thanks to the Faculty of Theology and Religious Studies (FTRS) of the KU Leuven for the invitation to give this lecture from the part of the Research Unit Biblical Studies (RUBS) on the occasion of the golden jubilee of the International Programmes in English.1 My gratitude also to the Ateneo de Manila University for the research leave grant to prepare for this lecture and its publication. While my initial excitement in drafting this piece was almost dampened by the enor- mity of the task to reflect on the future of biblical studies, it was replaced by a deep gratitude for the contributions of the KU Leuven to my own personal, academic and professional formation. Within the limited time and space, I apologize for any oversight as I paint in broad strokes the unique contributions and influences of our research unit to the greater field of global biblical studies, the current challenges for biblical research, and the possible trajectories for biblical criticism, with Psalm 109 as a test case as it talks about an ‘unsilent’ mouth (109:1), evil mouths (109:2), and praising mouth (109:30). The mouth here serves as a synecdoche, that is, with a generalizing and integrative function,2 for the whole person.

All rights reserved. “Le plus aristocratique des goûts” Modernist, Orientalist and Anti-Semitic Bible Readings in Late Nineteenth-Century Belgium1 Karim SCHELKENS TilburgUniversity As a Catholic Church historian, I have always considered the modernist crisis as a crucial period of transition within Roman Catholicism, marked by painful struggles and circling around the attempts at reconciling scientific methodology and the Christian faith tradition2. More precisely, the modern- ist crisis constitutes the transition from a church that seeks a way of deal- ing with modernity and its critical spirit and attitude. It is an attitude that, among others, has led to the development of the historical-critical method, now applied to the very sources of Christianity. For Yves Congar the col- lision between the hierarchy (and the so-called ‘traditionalist’ theologians defending it) and those that would eventually be labeled “modernists” was the consequence of the discordance between the doctrines imposed by the Magisterium and the conclusions of a scientific study of the documentation referred to by that same Magisterium as the foundation for their doctrinal statements3. 1. I am greatly indebted to Dr. Bart Coppein for his willingness to revise and comment on the forelying manuscript.

  • Episcopal Leadership in a Time of Crisis the Elusive Attempt to Incardinate George Tyrrell Jonas Bognar
    Louvain Studies 41 (2018): 64-88 doi: 10.2143/LS.41.1.3284694 © 2018 by Louvain Studies, all rights reserved Episcopal Leadership in a Time of Crisis The Elusive Attempt to Incardinate George Tyrrell Jonas Bognar Abstract. — This article hones in on a particularly difficult and trying period in the Roman Catholic Church, namely that of episcopal leadership during the Mod- ernist Crisis. It explores not only the specific situation of the attempted incardina- tions of the expelled English Jesuit, George Tyrrell, into the Archdiocese of San Francisco and the Archdiocese of Mechelen-Brussels, but more importantly, it leads one to question just how this situation came to be and how it failed to be resolved in an institution where no priest is to be left without a home. Finally, this article articulates the pressure that members of the episcopacy faced, forcing them to walk the tightrope between the pastorally practical solution to these challenges, and the ongoing rigid and reactionary attitudes espoused by the Holy See. If one were to investigate the causes, needs, and procedures to incardi- nate a priest into a bishop’s see today, one would find all of the pertinent information in the 1983 Code of Canon Law, specifically Can. 265-272. These canons were naturally built upon the Codex Iuris Canonici of 1917, but prior to its promulgation by Benedict XV (1914-1922) vari- ous rules and regulations existed in a patchwork of decrees that came into existence as interpretations of the decrees of the Council of Trent (1545-1563). These included instructions that every cleric be attached to a bishop and not “homeless” or “wandering.”1 In the case of George Tyrrell (1861-1909), with his hopes of being incardinated into a diocese as a secular priest following his dismissal from the Society of Jesus in 1906, he encountered a situation of difficulty with a number of bishops whom he contacted, due in great part to his role in the Modernist Crisis.
