  • Polemical Preaching at the University of Paris: Bonaventure’S Use of Paul As a Forerunner of Francis
    POLEMICAL PREACHING AT THE UNIVERSITY OF PARIS: BONAVENTURE’S USE OF PAUL AS A FORERUNNER OF FRANCIS C. Colt Anderson We have seven surviving sermons on Francis of Assisi that Bonaventure preached from 1255 through 1267 at the University of Paris. These sermons share all of the formal elements of what has come to be classified as the “thematic” or “university sermon.” While such a designation might lead one to suppress a yawn, the form of the thematic sermon grew out of the same polemical context that helped to birth scholasticism. The masters of thematic preaching would raise questions about disputed matters before turning to answer them through the use of reason and the authority of scripture. This was an effective form of preaching for the Catholic Church as it struggled to respond to the critiques of the Cathars, Waldensians, and Muslims in the twelfth and thirteenth centuries. Normally thematic ser­ mons were written in the context of conflict, and Bonaventure’s sermons on Francis are no exception. They reveal the mind of a brilliant polemicist who was adept at seizing his opponent’s ground and at tapping into the successful rhetorical strategies of his predecessors. If we look at Bonaventure’s peculiar use of Paul as a type of forerunner for Francis, the rhetorical quality of these sermons stand out in sharp relief. Ignatius Brady, who was a seminal scholar of early Franciscan history, pointed out some of the apologetic elements of several of these sermons and situated them in the context of the Mendicant Controversy. Because the rhetorical quality of the sermons was secondary to his purpose of establishing authenticity, Brady simply identified the way that Bonaven­ ture associated Francis with Christ, particularly in terms of his defense of the stigmata.1 Bonaventure certainly identified Francis with Christ, but he 1 Ignatius Brady, “The Authenticity of Two Sermons of St.

In accordance with Jewish tradition, 40 days after a baby is born the parents would bring an offering of doves, lamb or pigeons to the temple. Since Mary and Joseph were Jewish they were obedient to this practice. The Presentation is also the Fourth Joyful Mystery in the Rosary. On February 11th, the feast day of Our Lady of Lourdes, the Church celebrates the World Day of the Sick. On this day we remember those who are seriously ill. Here at St. Bonaventure we recognize this day by celebrating Mass for those who are ill to God and His Mother.

  • Mulier Amicta Sole: Bonaventure's Preaching on the Marian Mode of the Incarnation and Marian Mediation in His Sermons on the A
    Chapter 3 Mulier Amicta Sole: Bonaventure’s Preaching on the Marian Mode of the Incarnation and Marian Mediation in His Sermons on the Annunciation J. Isaac Goff Bonaventure’s homiletical works on Mary provide a wealth of insight into his mature and maturing views on the person and role of the Blessed Virgin Mary, and are pivotal in grasping the development of his Marian thought that began in his scholastic works.1 His vision of the ‘Woman’ is couched within, yet helps illumine, his presentation of the Trinity, Christology, Anthropology, and Sacra- mental theology, providing many key links between these different areas of his theological reflections. Together Bonaventure’s sermons on the Blessed Virgin Mary provide the general outline of what later systematic Mariologies would treat. His presentation of Mary’s role in both the order of the Incarnation and her mediatory role in the Church, especially as it relates to questions of Pneu- matology, has, arguably, not been surpassed. Bonaventure’s two sermons2 on the Annunciation, the topic of this es- say, provide a striking picture of Mary’s unique sanctity and singular agency 1 These sermons are divided according to the solemnities of the Purification, Annunciation, Assumption, and Nativity of Mary. A larger collection of twenty-four sermons on Mary were first gathered and published in 1901 in a single volume in Bonaventure, Sermones de tempore, de Sanctis, de B. Virgine Maria et de diversis, Opera Omnia, 10 vols., eds. PP. Collegii a S. Bo- naventurae (Quaracchi, 1882–1902), vol. 9, 633–721. A new critical edition of Bonaventure’s Marian discourses was published in 1993, which retains only nine of the original twenty-four sermons and adds collation 6 of Collationes de septem donis Spiritus sancti as the second sermon on the Annunciation for a total of ten.

    St. Peter Damian Catholic.net Roman Martyrology: Saint Peter Damian, Cardinal Bishop of Ostia and Doctor of the Church. He entered the hermitage of Fonte Avellana, vigorously promoted the religious life and, during difficult times for promoting the reform of the Church, he firmly called back monks to the holiness of contemplation, clergy to integrity of life and the people to communion with the Apostolic See. He passed away at Faenza in Flaminia on 22nd February. SHORT BIOGRAPHY Maybe because he was orphaned and had been treated shabbily by one of his brothers, Peter Damian was very good to the poor. It was the ordinary thing for him to have a poor person or two with him at table and he liked to minister personally to their needs. Peter escaped poverty and the neglect of his own brother when his other brother, who was archpriest of Ravenna, took him under his wing. His brother sent him to good schools and Peter became a professor. Already in those days Peter was very strict with himself. He wore a hair shirt under his clothes, fasted rigorously and spent many hours in prayer. Soon, he decided to leave his teaching and give himself completely to prayer with the Benedictines of the reform of St. Romuald (June 19) at Fonte Avellana. They lived two monks to a hermitage. Peter was so eager to pray and slept so little that he soon suffered from severe insomnia. He found he had to use some prudence in taking care of himself. When he was not praying, he studied the Bible.
