    Establishing the Tudor Dynasty: the Role of Francesco Piccolomini in Rome As First Cardinal Protector of England

    2017 IV Establishing the Tudor Dynasty: The Role of Francesco Piccolomini in Rome as First Cardinal Protector of England Susan May Article: Establishing the Tudor Dynasty: The Role of Francesco Piccolomini in Rome as First Cardinal Protector of England Establishing the Tudor Dynasty: The Role of Francesco Piccolomini in Rome as First Cardinal Protector of England1 Susan May Abstract: Between 1492 and 1503, Francesco Todeschini Piccolomini (1439–1503) was the first officially appointed Cardinal Protector of England. This paper focuses on a select few of his activities executed in that capacity for Henry Tudor, King Henry VII. Drawing particularly on two unpublished letters, it underscores the importance for King Henry of having his most trusted supporters translated to significant bishoprics throughout the land, particularly in the northern counties, and explores Queen Elizabeth of York’s patronage of the hospital and church of St Katharine-by-the-Tower in London. It further considers the mechanisms through which artists and humanists could be introduced to the Tudor court, namely via the communication and diplomatic infrastructure of Italian merchant-bankers. This study speculates whether, by the end of his long incumbency of forty-three years at the Sacred College, uncomfortably mindful of the extent of a cardinal’s actual and potential influence in temporal affairs, Piccolomini finally became reluctant to wield the power of the purple. Keywords: Francesco Todeschini Piccolomini; Henry VII; early Tudor; cardinal protector; St Katharine’s; Italian merchant-bankers ope for only twenty-six days following his election, taking the name of Pius III (Fig. 1), Francesco Todeschini Piccolomini (1439–1503) has understandably been P overshadowed in reputation by his high-profile uncle, Aeneas Silvius Piccolomini, Pope Pius II (1458–64).

    Liturgy, an "Investigation" Into Cardinal Sarah's Management Gets Underway

    VATICAN Liturgy, an "investigation" into Cardinal Sarah's management gets underway ECCLESIA 16-03-2021 Nico Spuntoni Three weeks after Pope Francis's acceptance of Cardinal Robert Sarah's resignation there could be a turning point in the mystery as to why the Prefect's job has been left disturbingly vacant According to information gathered by The Daily Compass, in fact, the Congregation for Divine Worship and the Discipline of the Sacraments has been ordered to undergo an Apostolic Visitation starting Monday, March 15. This is particularly noteworthy because it is not a diocese nor a religious order that is being investigated but rather a department of Roman curia. This is an investigation whose content and motives are presently unknown. Will it concern the former Guinean prefect’s past management or, rather, will it be directed more generally at the future of the Catholic liturgy? What we do know, for now, is that the Apostolic Visitor will likely be an Italian bishop. It will not be, however, Bishop Vittorio Francesco Viola, who many had picked as the likely successor of Sarah as prefect. According to sources gathered by Oltretevere, in fact, Bishop Claudio Maniago would lead the Apostolic Visitation at the Vatican’s Palace of the Congregations. Maniago, currently Bishop of Castellaneta (Southern Italy), is also President of Italian Bishops’ Conference’s Liturgical Commission. He is a choice, therefore, that would be in continuity with what was seen in the last Consistory: confirming the good times that the Italian episcopate - or at least a part of it – now seems to enjoying during Francis’s pontificate.
  • A Magisterium of Authority and Service

    A Magisterium of Authority and Service

    138 A magisterium of authority and service Theodore Davey N 6 JANUARY 2001, POPE JOHN PAUL II issued an Apolistic Letter, O Nova millennio ineunte, in part four of which he reflects on the 'spirituality of communion'. There he states his conviction that the great challenge facing believers in the new millennium is how to make the Church the home and school of communion. This key scriptural concept occurs several times in Acts and in the Pauline epistles, denoting a sharing in God's gifts by individuals and communities, as witnessed in the lives of the earliest disciples. It is also used of spiritual blessings, which the gentiles are invited to share, as well as the corporate solidarity which we have with Christ and with one another through the indwelling of the Holy Spirit. In the reflections which follow, however, communion particularly signifies the bonds that unite all eucharistic communities under their bishops, to form the one, holy Catholic Church. The Anglican-Roman Catholic International Commission considered communion the most appropriate way of expressing the mystery underlying the various New Testament images of the Church, and it is particularly suited to the People of God image: Koinonia [communion] is the term that most aptly expresses the mystery underlying the various New Testament images of the Church. When, for example, the Church is called the people of the new covenant or the bride of Christ, the context is primarily that of communion. 1 The object of this article is to argue that the episcopal magisterium exists to serve the welfare of that communion.

    Cardinal Pietro Isvalies, the Bishop of Veszprém

    Cardinal Pietro Isvalies, the Bishop of Veszprém Gábor Nemes It was rare that a foreigner, let alone a foreign cardinal, was appointed to a Hungarian diocese1. In the history of Hungary, there were only two such cardinals who became bishops while being legates: Branda da Castiglione and Pietro Isvalies, both of whom obtained the episco- pal see of Veszprém2. Below, the career of the latter is outlined from a Hungarian researcher’s point of view by detailing his office as a legate and his retinue. The Beginning of a Career: From Canon to Obtaining the Red Galero Pietro Isvalies was born in Messina, Sicily in the middle of the fifteenth century to a poor family of Spanish origin3. His outstanding career started in his birthplace: at first he was a precentor of Messina, and then he became the vicar general of Archbishop Pietro de Luna4. Here he received his first benefices from Archbishop Luna, who appointed him as the provost of the Priory of Santa Croce of Messina and the com- 1 This article has been prepared in the MTA-PPKE Vilmos Fraknói Vatican Histor- ical Research Group.

    Charting the Roles of Women in the Catholic Church

    FutureChurch Charting the roles of women in the Catholic Church Current breakdown of male/female leadership in Vatican dicasteries Pope Francis has called for “a more incisive presence for women” in the Catholic Church. At the most recent Consistory of cardinals on February 12 and 13, 2015, Fr. Federico Lombardi reported that the cardinals expressed the hope of “an increasingly active role” for women. Although Pope Francis stated the door is closed on the question of ordination for women to the priesthood, he has been emphatic in his call for a stronger presence of women elsewhere. He recently appointed Sr. Mary Melone, the first women to date, to head a Pontifical University; Sr. Luzia Premoli, the first women to be appointed as a member of the Congregation on Evangelizat ion of Peoples, and has stated that women should take up positions of greater leadership within the Vatican. So how many women are in positions of leadership within the Curia? How many assert real influence? While it is difficult to accurately measure the level of influence women exercise, the chart below has been generated to further that discussion by showing the current roles women play now in Vatican congregations, pontifical councils, and other commissions, committees and offices. Secretariats, Congregations, and Pontifical Councils There are two secretariats, nine congregations and twelve pontifical councils.
