Roosevelt's 1940 appointment of a personal representative / * to the Vatican outraged most Protestant churches. Indeed, an / accounting of the Protestant protests regarding the Holy See appointment reveals several aspects of American religious life at that time. As the United States moved closer to becoming a religiously plurahstic society and shed its Protestant hegemony, mainline Protestant churches sought to maintain leverage by denouncing any ties to the Vatican. Efforts to avert this papal affiliation also stemmed from traditional American anti-Cathohcism. Therefore, the attempt to preserve Protestant influence with anti-Catholic rhetoric against a Vatican envoy demonstrates how mainline churches want- ed to sway governmental pohcy, even in the area of foreign affairs. Protestant churches asserted that they were defending the principle of the separation of church and state. But an inspection of their protests against the Vatican appointment illustrates that they were also concerned about how such repre- sentation would affect their place in U.S. society and proves that they still dis- trusted Catholicism. In short, although they cloaked their arguments in the guise of defending the separation of church and state, the Vatican appoint- ment became a forum in which Protestant denominations displayed their anxiety about the development of religious pluralism in America, voiced tra- ditional anti-Catholicism, and ultimately influenced diplomatic policy.

The “Ordines” of the Coronation Masses of Popes John XXIII and Paul VI Bartłomiej Krzysztof Krzych University of Rzeszow [email protected] http://orcid.org/0000-0003-2525-9759 Before the liturgical reforms of the Second Vatican Council that took place in the latter half of the twentieth century,1 the most solemn liturgies were cel- ebrated in the pope’s Rome, the beating heart of Christianity. This was because of the richness of the ceremonial formalities and the liturgical prerogatives to which the highest pastor and bishop of the Eternal City was entitled.2 The most ceremonial celebrations in the papal chapels were the solemn Masses that were celebrated by the Vicar of Christ on such occasions as canonizations or the pope’s own coronation. The Solemn Pontifical Mass was a celebration par excellence.3 The last two papal coronations took place in 1958 and 1963, respectively. Then, Popes John XXIII and Paul VI received the papal tiara. Because of the symbolic act of renouncing and giving up the tiara by Paul VI, their successors 1 Cf. A.

  • Power and Piety: Examining the Papal Tiara in The
    POWER AND PIETY: EXAMINING THE PAPAL TIARA IN THE CONTEXT OF THE MODERN CHURCH By Manon Wogahn A senior thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree in Bachelor of Arts in Art History CHAPMAN UNIVERSITY Orange, California May 2018 1 The papal tiara has been a symbol of the papacy since its first appearance around the eighth century. The exact symbolism of the three-tiered crown is unknown; a popular interpretation is that it represents the three divisions of the Christian Church: the Church Militant, Church Penitent, and Church Triumphant. Also called the triregnum, the tiara was last worn in public in 1963 by Pope Paul VI, who later donated his crown for charity. Since then, the last four popes, including the current Pope Francis, have received tiaras but have never worn them publicly. This project analyzes the rejection of the papal tiara and of the coronation ceremony as a symbol of the changing values of the modern papacy relationship between the disappearance of the papal tiara and the changing values of the modern papacy after the Second Vatican Council (1962-65). By examining the history of Paul VI’s crown within the context of a centuries-old tradition, I show how the papal tiara has been transformed from a symbol of the pope’s temporal power into a representation of material wealth that has become incompatible with the image of modest piety promoted by the contemporary papacy. In the 2016 drama television series The Young Pope, the fictional American pontiff Pius XIII causes shock and unrest within the Vatican with his controversial conservative philosophies and rejection of his predecessor’s liberality.

It began as a request for the Knights of Columbus Council to "put something" on the walls of the finished but bare hall outside the St. Thomas Aquinas "Lower Lounge," the parish's basement dining area. Whatever it was to be, it should be "educational." Suggestions included plaques representing the prophets of the Old Testament, the four authors of the Gospels, or the early "Fathers of the Church." A set of plaques depicting the 22 general councils of the Catholic Church was chosen. Like the decisions of the United States' Supreme Court, the general councils of the Catholic Church have shaped what Catholics should and should not believe about their faith. The plaques would depict the major controversies each council dealt with and the leaders of the church who dealt with those issues.
