  • CCJR ANNUAL MEETING PROCEEDING the Pope Francis
    Studies in Christian-Jewish Relations CCJR ANNUAL MEETING PROCEEDING The Pope Francis Effect and Catholic-Jewish Relations1 Noam E. Marans, American Jewish Committee In evaluating the trajectory of Catholic-Jewish Relations in the Pope Francis era, one picture is worth a thousand words. Pope Francis has identified Marc Chagall’s White Cru- cifixion as one of his favorite paintings.2 In the aftermath of Kristallnacht in 1938, when hundreds of European synagogues were torched, foreshadowing greater evil yet to come, Chagall artistically interpreted the threat of Nazism within the continu- um of anti-Semitism. A “Jewish Jesus” is on the cross, wearing a tallit (prayer shawl) loincloth and surrounded by scenes of persecuted and fleeing Jews. A synagogue and its Torah scrolls are engulfed in flames, torched by a Nazi brownshirt. Using conflicting imagery, Chagall delivers his warning: the Jews who were persecuted as Christ-killers are now crucified as Jesus the Jew once was. Pope Francis did not hesitate to publicly herald a painting featuring a syncretistic “Jewish Jesus” that certainly has the potential to offend, notwithstanding the facts of Jesus’ historic Jewishness and the painter’s Jewish identity. It speaks volumes about Francis’ empathy with the Jewish people and lack of concern that his admiration for the painting might be controversial or misinterpreted. And the absence of negative 1 A version of this paper was delivered on October 26, 2014 at the CCJR (Council of Centers on Jewish-Christian Relations) 13th Annual Meeting in Mobile, Alabama.

  • The Roman Curia
    The Roman Curia (until about 1300) Brigide Schwarz The history of the Roman Curia1 that I will write will not be the usual one that deals with papal 'bureaucracy' (avant la lettre, at least for the earlier periods), but rather that of a medieval court that was admittedly sui generis.2 This chapter is organized according to the various phases of papal and I am greatly indebted to Dr. Brigitte Flug, now at the University of Bochum, for her generous help with the translation. 1. A definition of the Roman Curia will be given below. There is no history of the 'curia' that is more than a mere history of the organization of curial bureaucracy. My own article is a first attempt: see Brigide Schwarz, 'Die römische Kurie, Teil Mittelalter', TRE 20 (1990) 343-347. Written from different angles are the articles of Agostino Paravicini Bagliani on the history of the Roman curia from 1054 to 1274 in several chapters of volume 5 of the Histoire du christianisme des origines à nos jours: Apogée de la papauté et expansion de la chrétienté ("1054-1274), ed.

  • How the Vatican Has Prepared the Pope's Historic Trip to Iraq
    How the Vatican has prepared the pope's historic trip to Iraq How the Vatican has prepared the pope's historic trip to Iraq "La Croix" takes a behind-the-scenes look at the preparations for the March 5-8 papal visit to the Land of Abraham Preparation for the visit of Pope Francis to Karakoch in Iraq. (Photo by ZAID AL-OBEIDI/AFP) Intense preparations for Pope Francis' historic visit to Iraq have been underway for several months, despite continued uncertainty about the safety and feasibility of the trip. But, unless there is a last-minute change of events, the 84-year-old Francis will leave this Friday (March 5) to become the first pope in history to visit this war-ravaged Middle Eastern country. He will spend just over three days in a country that no foreign head of state has toured for years. The pope is scheduled to visit several places including Baghdad, Erbil, Mosul, Karakoch, the Plain of Ur and the city of Najaf. When the papal trip was announced last December 2, many were surprised. But, in fact, it has been in the planning stages for much longer.Since his election to the papacy in March 2013, Francis has never hidden his desire to visit Iraq, a hoped-for journey that his predecessors, John Paul II and Benedict XVI, were denied.Memos at the end of 2019As early as the end of 2019, before the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic, the Vatican nunciature in Iraq had already carried out a series of informal consultations with key players on the ground in the country.

  • Geopolitics of Papal Traveling: (Re)Constructing a Catholic Landscape in Europe
    religions Article Geopolitics of Papal Traveling: (Re)Constructing a Catholic Landscape in Europe Mariano P. Barbato Center for Religion and Modernity, 48149 Münster, Germany; [email protected] Received: 10 September 2020; Accepted: 8 October 2020; Published: 13 October 2020 Abstract: For the popes, traveling has developed into a key instrument for mobilizing masses, spreading messages, and shaping public Catholic identities. Traveling ranks high within the papal efforts to (re)construct a Catholic landscape in Europe. Thus, comparing the European travel schedules of Pope Benedict XVI and Pope Francis in the context of their global journeys can help to understand their different conceptualizations of Europe. While both popes share the focus on Marian shrines, mass events, Parliamentary addresses, and interfaith encounters that has been established by their predecessors, their geopolitical strategies differ completely. Benedict XVI placed visits to major European nations and regions at the center of his travel schedule and tried to strengthen a historical Catholic identity. Francis shifted the focus of papal traveling to other continents and approached Europe from the periphery. He has visited the European institutions in Strasbourg and tried to shape an interreligious public identity of Europe.
