C a T H O L I C C H U R INTERACTIVE BULLETIN APRIL 5, 2020 ST JUDE CATHOLIC CHURCH HOLY WEEK GUIDE WHAT CAN OUR FAMILY DO TO CELEBRATE HOLY WEEK IN OUR HOME? This year, with the need for “social distancing”, every family will observe Holy Week in their own homes, connected to their parish and the Catholic community through watching Holy Week liturgies on television or through social media. This year, more than ever, we are exploring new ways to expand and deepen our observance and celebration of the mysteries of the Triduum in our domestic churches – our homes. A LETTER FROM FATHER HENEHAN This resource is intended to help you and your family journey through Holy Week. We hope that you will find some new traditions for your family, learn a few things, and grow ever closer to our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.

Palm Sunday GO TO PAGE 66 COLORING PAGES, CRAFTS & PUZZLES of the Passion of the Lord When Jesus and the disciples drew near Jerusalem and came to Bethphage on the Mount of Olives, Jesus sent two disciples, say- ing to them, “Go into the village opposite you, and immediately you will find an ass tethered, and a colt with her. Untie them and bring them here to me. And if anyone should say anything to you, reply, ‘The master has need of them.’ Then he will send them at once.” This happened so that what had been spoken through the prophet might be fulfilled: Say to daughter Zion, “Behold, your king comes to you, meek and riding on an ass, and on a colt, the foal of a beast of burden.” The disciples went and did as Jesus had ordered them. They brought the ass and the colt and laid their cloaks over them, and he sat upon them. The very large crowd spread their cloaks on the road, while others cut branches from the trees and strewed them on the road. The crowds preceding him and those following kept crying out and saying: “Hosanna to the Son of David; blessed is the he who comes in the name of the Lord; hosanna in the high- est.” And when he entered Jerusalem the whole city was shaken and asked, “Who is this?” And the crowds replied, “This is Jesus the prophet, from Nazareth in Galilee.” 8 9 A Reading from the Book of the Prophet Isaiah | MUSICAL SELECTIONS Isaiah 50:4-7 For Sunday, April 5, Palm Sunday of the Passion of our Lord The Lord GOD has given me a well-trained tongue, that I might know how to speak to the weary a word that will rouse them.

The Architecture of Joseph Michael Gandy (1771-1843) and Sir John Soane (1753-1837): An Exploration Into the Masonic and Occult Imagination of the Late Enlightenment Abstract In examining select works of English architects Joseph Michael Gandy and Sir John Soane, this dissertation is intended to bring to light several important parallels between architectural theory and freemasonry during the late Enlightenment. Both architects developed architectural theories regarding the universal origins of architecture in an attempt to establish order as well as transcend the emerging historicism of the early nineteenth century. There are strong parallels between Soane's use of architectural narrative and his discussion of architectural 'model' in relation to Gandy's understanding of 'trans-historical' architecture. The primary textual sources discussed in this thesis include Soane's Lectures on Architecture, delivered at the Royal Academy from 1809 to 1836, and Gandy's unpublished treatise entitled the Art, Philosophy, and Science of Architecture, circa 1826.

  • RAYMOND HOOD and the American Skyscraper
    RAYMOND HOOD and the American Skyscraper 1 RAYMOND HOOD and the American Skyscraper Curated by JO-ANN CONKLIN, JONATHAN DUVAL, and DIETRICH NEUMANN DAVID WINTON BELL GALLERY, BROWN UNIVERSITY 2 From Pawtucket to Paris: Raymond Hood’s Education and Early Work JONATHAN DUVAL On December 3, 1922, a headline on the front page of the Chicago Tribune announced the winner of the newspaper’s sensational international competition: “Howells Wins in Contest for Tribune Tower: Novelist’s Son Gains Architect Prize.” The credit due to Raymond Hood, the son of a box maker from Pawtucket, Rhode Island, was relegated to a passing mention. Attention was given instead to the slightly older and much better known John Mead Howells, son of the famous novelist and Atlantic Monthly editor William Dean Howells. Though Howells was then the more notable of the pair, Hood was quick to gain recognition in his own right and soon achieved worldwide fame. Scholars and critics agree that the Tribune Tower competition was the turning point that launched Hood’s career.1 As a consequence, though, his work before 1922 has not been adequately surveyed or scrutinized. On the surface, a description of Hood’s career before the Tribune Tower competition might seem like an inventory of mediocrity—styling radiator covers, designing a pool house shaped like a boat, writing letters to editors arguing against prohibition—ending only with the “famed turn of fortune.” 2 However, it is in these earlier years of study and work that the characteristics we associate with Raymond Hood’s architecture were formed and solidified: a blend of tradition and innovation, a focus on plan, a facility with style and ornament, an understanding of architectural illumination, and a thoughtful, iterative approach to design.

The Cruciform Shape: This type gives an idea of the mystical nature of the Church, as being the crucified Body of Christ. It was very common in the Byzantine style, but rarely used in the Coptic Churches. B. The Circular Shape: This design refers to the eternal nature of the Church as being an endless line. This type is very common in the Coptic architecture. C. The Shape of a Ship: This is the most commonly used shape in the Coptic Orthodox Church. This is symbolic of Noah’s ark as those in Noah’s ark were saved from the flood, likewise the Church of God alone has the ability to save men.

  • The Church of Saint-Denis and Gothic Architecture a Case Study
    The Church of Saint-Denis and Gothic Architecture A Case Study Myles Zhang (author) Barry Bergdoll and Stephen Murray (thesis advisers) View of Saint-Denis choir and hemicycle Saint Denis with north tower before its 1846 demolition Thesis for the History & Theory of Architecture Program Columbia University Submitted 8 May 2019 Abstract Around the year 1140 CE, a new style of architecture and way of thinking about how to construct buildings developed in Northern France. This way of building soon spread across Europe, seeding cathedrals, monasteries, abbeys, and churches wherever masons traveled. Centuries later – long after masons ceased building in this style – Renaissance architectural theorists began calling this style the “Gothic.” The one church traditionally associated with this 1140s stylistic shift from the earlier Romanesque style to the newer Gothic style is a small building just north of Paris: the Abbey Church of S-Denis. However, although the popular narrative of architectural history assumes this building to be the world’s first Gothic building, little structural evidence to this effect survives. This thesis follows two strains of inquiry: 1) why this church is deeply associated with the origins of Gothic and 2) how surviving fragments of the 1140s S-Denis fail to support claims of the structure’s primacy. Why does this matter? S-Denis reveals a tendency to tell history – particularly architectural history – in terms of individual structures when, in fact, the origins of the Gothic style might be more complex. By abandoning a Paris and S-Denis centric origins story, we might be able to better appreciate the diverse array of local sources from which medieval masons found inspiration to build.

  • Gothic Style
    1 Types of Arches. On the left is a Roman-style/Romanesque arch which is semi-circular , and is drawn by placing your compass point in the centre of the span at the springing point (the level at which the arch starts). The arches below are 2 centred Gothic arches drawn by placing your compass point on the lower 2 points of each arch in the diagram. For the equilateral arch the points are on the springing line, but for the others the points are placed further apart, closer, or lower. The lancet is the earliest form used structurally in Europe. The pointed segmental and the drop arches af- ford a structurally strong but lower and wider span. On the right is a 3 centred arch drawn by making arcs with your compass point on the red dots, and connect- ing them to a large central arc from a compass on the green dot. Below is a 4 centred arch, following the same method of drawing. These are also sometimes called Tudor arches, or if slightly taller, Persian arch- es. Below right is a Tudor arch at Canterbury Cathedral. 2 Jame Mosque of Yazd, 14th century. This is an example of a Persian arch. A Catenary arch is shown below. A catenary is the shape made by a hanging chain, and is inverted to make a Catenary arch, which is close in shape to a 4 centred arch. Gaudi favoured this type of arch, as can be seen below left. King’s College Chapel has a Tudor arch in the Perpendicular style, and you can see its closeness to the Catenary arch shape, but it has the addition of a slightly pointed top.
