Blessed Virgin Mary Candle – In memory of Carol Bleckman, req. by Sandra Bleckman. ST. MARY PARISH WORSHIPPING SINCE 1911 MUSIC AND LENT THIS WEEK AT The most notable change in the mass during Lent is the omission of the Glory to God and ST. MARY PARISH the Alleluia. Both of these prayers are of a joyful nature. While we praise God at all times, during Lent we withhold a bit of our joy so that we can focus on the penitential and 2/18 – SUNDAY baptismal nature of Lent. This is a time to "lay low" as we examine our relationship to the Lord and one another. No – LWC Chant is a form of music that emphases words and melody more so than intricate harmony. 2/19 – MONDAY This simplicity can help us enter into reflection. The Kyrie Eleison, translated from Greek meaning Lord, Have Mercy, will be sung. The cantor will entone a phrase and we all All Parish Offices Closed respond with the same melody. The Agnus Dei (Lamb of God) will be sung to the melody 10:00 AM – Prayer Shawl Ministry found at number 850 in Breaking Bread. – Parish Life Room The other Eucharistic acclamations are found at numbers 885,887 and 889. 7:00 PM – 8:00 PM – Exposition of the Most Blessed Sacrament SOUP SUPPERS AND STATIONS OF THE CROSS No – Deepening the Journey Join us for a light meal of soup, bread and water followed by recitation of the Stations of the Cross.

This weekend, we welcome our Be Our Guest! missionary priest, Last week I shared a memory of a dinner party hosted by a person who grew up in an era and class that knew how Rev. Evanson Njogu, to truly throw one. Back in the day, she would have as he makes his appeal multiple courses of delicious food, paired with all the right for the Diocese of wines, served in the best china and crystal, put up elaborate decorations, had party favors for guests, and gave gifts to Nakuru in Kenya. everyone to take home. Guests would come dressed up and ready for an experience like no other. I wanted to relate this party to last weekend’s Gospel passage of Martha, Mary, and the one thing necessary. As I switched things up, I was not comparing this woman and her parties to Martha, worried about so many things, but rather compared her to Mary who understood what was most important: the guest! These parties were all about the guests. Jesus, who tells of the one thing necessary, is saying to Martha, Mary, and to us that the guest is most important. When we invite Jesus into our Thank you to all of the hearts, he is our guest. Jesus wants us to be attentive to volunteers that helped what he has to say. Mary sat at the feet of Jesus to listen to during the blood drive, the Word speak truth.

  • 1 Performing Status: Cardinals and Diplomacy in Seventeenth-Century
    1 Performing Status: Cardinals and Diplomacy in Seventeenth-Century Rome Martin Olin Swedish Institute in Rome “The court of Rome … is made up of nothing besides its ceremonies”, wrote the seasoned diplomat Abraham de Wicquefort in 1677.1 Public performances in the “theatre state” that was seventeenth-century Rome became increasingly important as the political power of the Papas States declined, as Peter Burke has noted.2 The roots (and routes) of the Roman processions could be traced back to Antiquity: the prestige of ancient lineage, assisted by the force of repetition, formed as ever the cornerstone of the symbolic authority upon which the Pope’s temporal power was built.3 Elaborately decorated carriages for personal use attained a remarkable position as signifiers of luxury and high social rank in the middle of the seventeenth century and were to keep this status for about a century.4 An ambassador could wait several months for his carriages to be ready before making the official entry to the court where he had been conducting unofficial negotiations since long. There are countless recorded instances of traffic-jams in the seventeenth century caused by disputes over rank: whose carriage should yield its place in the street to whom? Such squabbles may seem futile and almost amusing today, but I would argue that they should be taken seriously as indications of a performative culture in which the outward signs of rank and the acceptance by others of a claim to precedence in, for example, a procession or a chance meeting of two carriages in a narrow alley, was, at least to some extent, what constituted rank.

  • The Choice of Action As Agency: Early Modern Women's
    1 Attending to Early Modern Women, June 2018, Milwaukee, Wisconsin The Choice of Action as Agency: Early Modern Women’s Choreographies of Virtue, Status, Dissent, and Subversion Workshop Leaders: Elisa Oh, Howard University (English); Lynneth Miller, Baylor University (History); Susan Cogan, Utah State University (History); and Camilla Kandare, Independent Scholar (Dance History) Workshop Description: This workshop will ask participants to search collaboratively for the many ways that early modern gendered agency was chosen, gained, lost, and negotiated through learned bodily disciplines like dance, intentional kinetic trajectories through religious rituals in the church and community, choreographed movements performed by women dancing on stage, and symbolic political actions performed by positioning themselves in a court or colonial context. We will consider different theoretical and disciplinary approaches to physical performance, and we will discuss the unstable quality of agency as we interrogate the primary sources that we have assigned as readings. We will solicit examples from the participants to illustrate how nonverbal patterns of movement can still “speak” and enable women to do interesting cultural and ideological work. In smaller groups, we will examine the intersection of religious discourses of femininity and communal dance practices such as wedding dances and parish processions in late-medieval to early modern England. Through prescriptive conduct literature and sermons, we will ask whether these social dances were ever discussed as gender-neutral acts or whether they were represented by patriarchal texts as transgressive, specifically feminine acts. These texts illuminate how presentations of dance in religious texts revolved, to a large degree, around gendered bodies, with holy dancing male bodies contrasted with profane female ones.

  • The Male Body and Adornment in Early Modern England
    Bejewelled: the male body and adornment in early modern England Natasha Awais-Dean Submitted for the degree of PhD Queen Mary, University of London October 2012 1 Queen Mary, University of London The British Museum Bejewelled: the male body and adornment in early modern England This thesis investigates the significance of the jewellery that was worn, owned, and circulated by men within sixteenth- and early seventeenth-century England, to provide a social and historical context for objects that are often viewed in terms of their materiality. Within the period 1509-1625 male consumption of jewellery was just as great as female consumption, yet jewellery has traditionally been considered a feminine preoccupation. This thesis readdresses this imbalance and in doing so aligns itself with the growing studies on masculinity, community, and sociability. Traditionally, studies on jewellery have adopted a more chronological or stylistic approach but there is now evidence of movement towards providing a social context for these objects and this thesis is a part of this development. In the early modern period jewellery was not valued purely for its intrinsic monetary worth; it had the ability to reflect meanings of magnificence and lineage, as well as sustain social bonds and networks of reciprocity. The myriad meanings of a man’s jewelled possessions demonstrate that jewellery was important and therefore constituted a valid part of a society’s material culture. This thesis centres on the collections of early modern European jewellery within the department of Prehistory and Europe at the British Museum. It is interdisciplinary in nature and combines strong object analysis with evidence from documentary, literary, archival, and visual sources, to provide a new context for these holdings.
