  • Val D'orcia 1
    VAL D’ORCIA Sweet round-shaped hills, changing colour according to the season, low valleys along the Orcia river, parish churches and restored farms here and there, often hiding in a forest of cypresses. Such are the characteristics making the charm of Val d’Orcia incomparable, an extraordinary synthesis between nature, art and deeply rooted traditions. This beautiful area of Tuscany is under the authority of the Val d’Orcia Park, instituted to maintain and develop the heritage of a region to promote its typical produce. The fertile countryside of Val d’Orcia, cultivated with respect and wisdom, produces excellent wines, olive oil and high quality cereals. The landscape is deeply marked by man’s intervention aiming to enrich the natural beauty with sobre religious and civilian works of art. It is difficult to explain with words the serene charm emanating from the lands of Val d’Orcia in the spring, when the hills turn green, in the summer when the yellow colour of sunflowers and wheat fields dominates the area, in the beautiful fragrance of a variety of plants. In the south of Bagno Vignoni, olive groves, vineyards and cultivated fields are replaced by a Mediterranean bushland while in the Mount Amiata area opens out a thick forest of chestnut and beech groves. Mother Nature, especially generous with the Val d’Orcia’s people, did not forget to create thermal springs for rest and care. The Via Francigena goes through Val d'Orcia near the small village of Bagno Vignoni, visited by famous people and pilgrims. Already inhabited in the Etruscan period, the Val d’Orcia keeps architectural vestiges from the Middle Ages and the Renaissance.

Gabrielli All rights reserved 2014 iii ABSTRACT SOLIDARITY MEDIATION IN THE FRENCH STREAM OF MYSTICAL BODY OF CHRIST THEOLOGY Name: Gabrielli, Timothy R. University of Dayton Advisor: William L. Portier, Ph.D. In its analysis of mystical body of Christ theology in the twentieth century, this dissertation identifies three major streams of mystical body theology operative in the early part of the century: the Roman, the German-Romantic, and the French-Social- Liturgical. Delineating these three streams of mystical body theology sheds light on the diversity of scholarly positions concerning the heritage of mystical body theology, on its mid twentieth-century recession, as well as on Pope Pius XII’s 1943 encyclical, Mystici Corporis Christi, which enshrined “mystical body of Christ” in Catholic magisterial teaching. Further, it links the work of Virgil Michel and Louis-Marie Chauvet, two scholars remote from each other on several fronts, in the long, winding French stream.

  • Treatises on the Ideal Cardinal
    Chapter 28 Treatises on the Ideal Cardinal David S. Chambers The notion of an “ideal” cardinal may never have been expressed as such, but discussion about the office, what membership of the Sacred College stood for, was certainly a live topic by the 13th century, that great age of legal compila- tions and definitions, and soon became part of the repertoire of canon law treatises about papal authority. Many jurists pronounced opinions, using vari- ous figurative and historical arguments. They often expressed the idea that the College represented a senate of the Church, but opinions differed about its members’ duties: whether these senators were obliged just to give counsel, re- maining wholly subordinate to the pope once they had elected him, or wheth- er they rightfully possessed some ultimate powers of restraint and control. The latter alternative reached a climax of expression during the period of the Great Schism and General Councils in the early 15th century comprising an oligarchi- cal challenge to papal monarchy. Although this challenge failed, the debates in the Great Councils of Constance (1414–18) and Basel (1431–49) nevertheless introduced for the first time some enactments, never enforced, about the qual- ities intended to ensure exemplary cardinals (see Bernward Schmidt’s chapter in this volume). These included high standards of learning, moral comport- ment, and administrative efficiency (Constance), plus, more specifically, a minimum age (30) and a doctorate in either canon law or theology (Basel).1 1 15th-Century Legal Authors Following the triumph of papal monarchy by 1450 and on into the 16th and 17th centuries, discussion remained mainly in the hands of the lawyers and con- cerned the constitutional status and obligations of cardinals.

Chris Schabel* Terminology A search through the Universal Short Title Catalogue (USTC), WorldCat, Google Books, the SIEPM website,1 and other online sources for incunabula and early printed books revealed that by 1500 what we now call "Sentences commentaries" or "commentaries on the Sentences" by 26 authors had been printed in whole or in part close to 100 times.2 Nevertheless, according to these online sources, only ten printings by a mere three of these authors are entitled something like "commentaries": the Franciscan Richard of Mediavilla's Commentum was first published in 1473 and then four more times before 1500, the Franciscan Bonaventure's Commentarius came out twice in 1477 and then once more before the end of the century, and the Augustinian Giles of Rome's Commentum was printed in 1482 and again in 1492.

  • Cardinal Enea Silvio Piccolomini and the Development of Cardinal Protectors of Nations by Michael Von Cotta-Schönberg
    CARDINAL ENEA SILVIO PICCOLOMINI and the Development of Cardinal Protectors of Nations by Michael von Cotta-Schönberg n the 16th and 17th centuries an important instrument of papal gov- Iernment was the formal office of Cardinal Protector of Nations. This institution was the result of a development that began in the late Middle Ages and gained momentum in the 15th century in spite of opposition and ambivalence on the part of some popes who feared that such ar- rangements would lead to cardinals becoming dependent on secular princes. Enea Silvio Piccolomini became a cardinal in 1456 and was elected pope already in 1458. As a cardinal he actively sought to become the privileged representative of a number of European princes, especially from the German sphere, including the Emperor, Frederick III, and the King of Denmark, Christian 1. His correspondence as a cardinal1 and a number of letters from the Danish Court to the Papal Court from that period2 provide valuable documentation on the development of the office of Cardinal Protec- tors of Nations which has until now only been sparsely studied.3 1 Published soon after his death as well as in the Opera Omnia editions of 1551 and 1571. 2 Extant only in a copy made in the 17th century, held in the Royal Library, Copen- hagen. 3 Studies of the development of the office of Cardinal Protector of Nations are few, cf.
