Rybolt, C.M. [Introduction. To understand the social and religious world in which Saint Vincent and Saint Louise founded the Daughters of Charity, it is helpful to examine other attempts to found com- munities of religious women living and working in "the world". As the author of the following study shows, Vincent's initiative succeeded where others had failed. This paper was delivered as part of the International Vincentian Studies Colloquium in Paris, September 25-26, 1981. Apart from direct citations, the ex- tensive footnotes of the original have not been translated for the sake of readability.] I. The Company of Saint Ursula of Angela Merici Among the forces which, in the fifteenth century and in the first decades of the sixteenth century, operated to bring about the reform of the church "in its head and in its members", com- munities of lay persons and clerics played an important role. -
The Century of Columbus
The Century Of Columbus By James J. Walsh The Century of Columbus THE BOOK OF THE ARTS CHAPTER I GREAT PAINTERS: RAPHAEL Any attempt at proper consideration of the book of the arts of Columbus' Century must begin with the three great names of Raphael, Leonardo da Vinci and Michelangelo. They are the greatest trio in the history of art--all their names associated with a single city at the beginning of their lives but deeply influencing the world of art before the end of them. Of the three as a painter Raphael is undoubtedly the greatest, though surely here, if anywhere in the history of art, comparisons are odious. Each of these geniuses in his own department of painting was supreme,--as a religious painter Raphael, as a portrait painter Leonardo, as a great decorative artist Michelangelo. Raphael rivals Leonardo, however, in the painting of portraits and some of Leonardo's religious paintings are almost the only ones worthy to be placed besides Raphael's great religious visions. Michelangelo, however, could on occasion, as he showed in the Sistine, prove a rival of either of them in this mode. As is so true of the men of this time as a rule, all three of these men were much more than painters. Raphael died at the early age of thirty-seven, yet he reached distinction as an architect and as an archaeologist, besides accomplishing his great painting. Leonardo insisted on not being thought of as a painter, but as an engineer and architect, though he has painted the greatest portrait ever made and beat Michelangelo once in a competition in sculpture. -

The various speeches we heard at the International meeting of the Federation that took place in Rome from the 22nd to the 26th May 2007, have given a richer, deeper meaning to our meditation on the holiness of Angela Merici. All the contributions of the Reporters, the Celebrants and the Sisters of many Companies are offered to us so that we can have a better understanding of the service we can render to the Company and ourselves. While proposing these “ACTS”, I feel urged to point out some new aspects from the Bull of Canonisation written by the Holy Father Pius VII. The Church explains this holiness and guarantees that in Angela’s life it was clear that “everybody noticed that the servant of Christ became holier”. (par.5) “Everybody” implies that Angela was a testimony of faith and love “visible” to all. -

Does it concern us? Does it require something from a secular consecrated woman? I do not think that at the time of St. Angela it would have been necessary to talk about ecology with the concern we have today. Back then, people lived with little, they took care of everything, they did not waste, they did not pollute, they were respectful of nature, they adapted to the seasons and its needs. Yet Angela Merici, as a good farmer, as a true contemplative, close to her Lake Garda..
