It is impossible. Not even a year’s salary (the equivalent of two hundred denarii) could buy enough for such a feast, as Philip nervously points out. And yet, when the Apostles hand over their paltry resources to the Lord, they become more than enough to do the job. The same goes for every Christian apostle. Whose natural talents and wisdom are sufficient to defeat the forces of evil that hold the world in tow? Whose innate strength is sufficient to put an end to the selfishness, lust, and greed that rage within the human heart? How can the meager resources of a single parish or diocese suffice to do battle with media moguls, corrupt politicians, international banking cartels, and other agents of the culture of death? We only have five loaves and two fish; by ourselves we can do nothing. Only if we put all we have into Christ’s hands, trusting in him and not ourselves, can we hope to make a real difference for the good of the Kingdom – in our hearts and in society at large. Every small act of charity adds to the Church’s much-needed reservoir of grace and strength. What we could never achieve on our own, we can immeasurably surpass with God. As Jesus himself put it, “For God everything is possible” (Mt 19:26). Christ the Friend: Friends look out for each other. “Looking up,” Jesus saw that the crowd following him didn’t have any food; that he remedied the situation demonstrates his desire for our friendship. He wants to be our partner in life, our companion; our confidant. He is looking out for us, always keeping his eyes open for an opportunity to feed our hungry hearts with his beauty and truth. He wants to supply for our needs; it is his greatest joy. As he puts it later in this same Gospel, “I have come so that they may have life, and have it to the full.” Those are the words of a friend we can count on.

Quidditas 30 Hostis Antiquus Resurgent: A Reconfigured Jerusalem in Twelfth-Century Latin Sermons about Islam Todd P. Upton Denver, Colorado This paper investigates how Christian writers from late antiquity through the twelfth century transformed explanations of encounters with Middle Eastern peo- ples and lands into a complex theological discourse. Examinations of sermons and narrative sources from antiquity through the first century of Crusades (1096- 1192) serve as evidentiary bases because of the polemical way in which Pope Urban II’s 1095 sermon at Clermont defined Muslims. In that sermon, chroniclers recorded that the pope rallied Frankish support for an armed pilgrimage by dis- paraging Muslims who had overrun Jerusalem and the Holy Sites – calling them a “race utterly alienated from God” (gens prorsus a Deo aliena) -- and associating late-eleventh century Arabs with the return of what Richard of St.

  • De Quattuor Partibus Mundi Medieval Sacred Buildings on the Via Francigena in Northern and Middle Italy: Solstice Alignments and Orientations

DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.1478694 DE QUATTUOR PARTIBUS MUNDI MEDIEVAL SACRED BUILDINGS ON THE VIA FRANCIGENA IN NORTHERN AND MIDDLE ITALY: SOLSTICE ALIGNMENTS AND ORIENTATIONS Eva Spinazzè Ca’ Foscari University of Venice, IUAV University of Architecture Venice, University of Zurich, Independent Researcher Received: 28/02/2018 Accepted: 04/06/2018 Corresponding author: [email protected] ABSTRACT This paper discusses different aspects of sun light linked to a religious rite and combined with ecclesiasti- cal architecture. Our focus is on the four points of the solstices which form two sectors, one towards the sun- rise and the other to the sunset. This examination is mainly based on the study of the ancient thought of scholars and Fathers of the Church. Despite the deep significance of the solstices (the Births of Jesus Christ and John the Baptist, His forerunner), only few of the over two hundreds medieval churches, situated in the North of Italy and long the old pilgrimage route, the Via Francigena, are oriented towards the solstice and equinox rise/set points on the horizon. Georeferenced surveys on field with astronomical calculations were carried out on these sacred buildings by the author and the results were strengthened with primary and secondary written sources. Throughout medieval times on path of faith a lot of hostels and sacred buildings were founded for pil- grims and travellers and a great deal of diaries written by the pilgrims survived so far. These travel reports record important building descriptions and knowledge of that time.

  • Heresy and Heortology in the Early Church: Arianism and the Emergence of the Triduum
    ministers of communion, musicians, and greeters can benefit from learning about how their liturgical roles serve as avenues and ways for divine grace to penetrate into the depths of the soul. Translating self psychological theories about ritual experience into accessible language, designed for those who wish to enrich their liturgical and spiritual life with psychological insight, is the next step. Self psychology retrieves psychoanalysis for fruitful and chal­ lenging insights into religious ritual experience. For the dialogue between psychoanalysts and ritualists to continue, self psycholo­ gists must be willing to don ritual masks in many religious rites in order to see and hear the world empathically as the worshipers in different traditions do. The self psychologist must be willing to join the ritual dance, knowing that one's partners in the dance become at deep levels extensions of one's self, even the self of the psychologist, as the dance unfolds in celebratory story. Martin F. Connell Heresy and Heortology in the Early Church: Arianism and the Emergence of the Triduum The Triduum, the three-day liturgy of Easter — from Holy Thurs­ day evening through Easter Sunday — has been so common an experience of the Christian liturgical year that it is difficult to imagine a time when the Triduum was not. But for at least the first three centuries of Christian worship, this annual celebration of Easter was only one rite, a single grand annual assembly of confessors, and soon-to-be confessors, embracing the life of God incarnate in Jesus Christ and in the members of the community. The theology of this unitive rite took in all aspects of the redemp­ tion wrought in the human life of the Son of God, from his con­ ception to his death and resurrection.

One, a Russian icon, is the gift of Professor Allan Marquand to the Princeton University Art Museum. The other is a Greek icon in the possession of Professor Emerson Swift of the University of Michigan. Although they are of minor artistic value, they are interesting as survivals of the forms which Byzantine painting developed in the Middle Ages and which the preservative power of religious thought in the Orient kept practically unchanged. And like most of the paintings of the Orthodox church they should be regarded, not as ends in themselves, but as the means for the expression of a religious idea.

Their names were Alexander, Martyrius, and Sisinius, and they were sent by Vigilius, the bishop of Tridentum, to minister to the Christian community already present there and to convert the rural pagan population to Christianity.1 Upon arriving in the region, they must have had some initial success in winning over the locals as they began to construct a church. But this initial victory was short-lived: in a sudden outburst of violence, the pagan population attacked the clerics, beat them to death, and razed the church to the ground, burning their bodies along with it.2 News of their death soon spread across northern Italy, and their ashes began to be venerated as relics of devotion.3 It was not long before the clerics were hailed as martyrs by the bishops in the region.

It is argued that most worship in rural villas took place outside ecclesiastical supervision or intervention, and instead was shaped by older seigniorial hierarchies. It was this particular sociology of worship that brought domestic worship under episcopal scrutiny. The dissonance between seigniorial and ecclesiastical social structures might leave Christian estates outside episcopally-centered communities, suggesting that the "Christianization" of the rural home might be an ambiguous, fissiparous process rather than a seamless cultural transformation.
