  • And Theology in Post-Vatican II Germany », Histoire@Politique, [En Ligne], N° 30, Septembre-Décembre 2016
    Claus Arnold, « Turbulent Priests : "Solidarity Groups", "Councils" and Theology in Post-Vatican II Germany », Histoire@Politique, [en ligne], n° 30, septembre-décembre 2016, www.histoire-politique.fr Turbulent Priests : “Solidarity Groups”, “Councils” and Theology in Post-Vatican II Germany Claus Arnold “Will no one rid me of these turbulent priests?” Quite a few German bishops between 1969 and 1973 may have thought so. The formation of radical priest groups was a pan-European phenomenon,1 which found expression in the famous Conference in Rome in October 1969, on the fringes of the Extraordinary General Synod of Bishops. The European dimension of this phenomenon was also stressed by the German-language documentation of the Conference, published by Patmos, Düsseldorf.2 The reception of Vatican II3 had entered a critical state in 1969. This was felt world-wide and led to a virtually simultaneous mobilization and a very keen international awareness within these groups. The general crisis of post-Vatican II reforms in the age of Paul VI, especially after Humanae Vitae,4 provided a common background for all such groups. To some extent, this extraordinary mobilization, which included around 10 % of all priests in Germany,5 had a special antecedent within (West) German Catholicism. “The Discovery of Conflict”: Developments in Post-WW II German Catholicism In contrast to the German Reich, Catholics were no longer a minority in the new West German Republic after 1949,6 and with the arrival of millions of refugees7 the 1 See, for instance, Denis Pelletier, La crise catholique.

In his letter announcing the World Day of Prayer for Vocations, Pope Benedict says: “It is essential that every local Church become more sensitive and attentive to the pastoral care of vocations, helping children and young people in particular at every level of family, parish and associations – as Jesus did with his disciples – to grow into a genuine and affectionate friendship with the Lord, cultivated through personal and liturgical prayer; to grow in familiarity with the sacred Scriptures and thus to listen attentively and fruitfully to the word of God; to understand that entering into God’s will does not crush or destroy a person, but instead leads to the discovery of the deepest truth about ourselves; and finally to be generous and fraternal in relationships with others, since it is only in being open to the love of God that we discover true joy and the fulfillment of our aspirations.

  • Turnham, Margaret H. (2012) Roman Catholic Revivalism
    Roman Catholic Revivalism: A study of the area that became the Diocese of Middlesbrough 1779-1992 Margaret H. Turnham, B.Ed., M.Th. Thesis submitted to the University of Nottingham for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy. July 2012 i Abstract This thesis seeks to provide a grassroots study of the diocese of Middlesbrough (1779-1992), in order to contribute to the history of the English Catholic community since it emerged from the Penal Times. Secondly, it is an examination of the manifestation of revivalism and renewal in Catholic devotional practice. The geographical extent of the study covers an area of Yorkshire with a strong recusant history, and that period has been well-served in Catholic historiography. However, writing on the period following the easing of the Penal Laws on Catholics and into the nineteenth and twentieth centuries is remarkable for the paucity of references to the diocese and the area that it covers. Therefore this study sheds light upon a particular Catholic community that has been largely invisible to historians. Although the Catholic community itself might appear to be invisible, the devotional practice within it offers many insights, such as the extent to which the social culture influenced the practice of faith. Therefore it teases out and examines the changing nature of devotional practice, and compares it to aspects of Evangelical revivalism that provided the surrounding religious culture. It also examines the influences that came to bear upon the community itself, assessing their importance in the revival and renewal of faith of the people within it. By examining the history of Catholic devotional practice in this area of Yorkshire, it comes to the conclusion that revivalism and renewal are integral elements in Catholic devotion and as a result Catholics and Evangelicals have more in common with each other than their adherents have been ready to acknowledge.

Contention and Discontent Surrounding Religion in Austria How the ‘noughties’ reveal the risks of having religion as an element of Austrian identity Jérôme Segal and Ian Mansfield Religion appeared as a common thread in many of the social controversies and conflicts in Austria during the ‘noughties’. These conflicts were discussed in the public sphere, but did not play the role they had in the constitution of modern states, as has been shown more generally by Habermas and more recent scholars.1 A series of questions emerged over this period concerning, for example, the extent to which Catholicism was still part of Austrian identity, or whether the effects of migration and globalisation had weakened this sense of affiliation.
