Papal Pilgrimages to Poland As Pedagogical Programs
PAPAL PILGRIMAGES TO POLAND AS PEDAGOGICAL PROGRAMS, 1979-1987 By Richard Nabozny Submitted to Central European University History Department In partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts Supervisor: Maciej Janowski Second Reader: Nadia Al-Bagdadi CEU eTD Collection Budapest, Hungary 2012 CEU eTD Collection Copyright Notice Copyright in the text of this thesis rests with the Author. Copies by any process, either in full or part, may be made only in accordance with the instructions given by the Author and lodged in the Central European Library. Details may be obtained from the librarian. This page must form a part of any such copies made. Further copies made in accordance with such instructions may not be made without the written permission of the Author. Abstract This thesis aims to reconstruct the speeches given by Pope John Paul II on his visits to Poland in 1979, 1983, and 1987 as part of a specially designed pedagogical program. The author argues that one of the functions of the papal visits, as a pedagogical program, was to provide instruction and establish a firm moral and cultural foundation for the people of communist Poland. That being said, this thesis also asserts that John Paul II viewed himself as a pedagogue to the nation. The author shows how the Pope’s intellectual development contributes to this position and examines his speeches in light of the situation in Poland before and after each visit. Quentin Skinner’s ideas on meaning and intention are used as the analytical apparatus for this thesis. By distinguishing between different forms of meaning and the intentions of speech, this thesis is able to argue that there are present different layers of meaning in the Pope’s speeches; of which one corresponds to the pedagogical programs. -

A Short Introduction to the CWL My Name Is Father Michael Coyne
A Short Introduction to the CWL My name is Father Michael Coyne and I was ordained to the Priesthood on Sept 8th, 2020 by Bishop Guy Desrochers, and subsequently appointed to be the Pembroke Diocesan Spiritual Advisor to the Catholic Women’s League on the 17th of November 2020. I was born in North Bay in 1973. My parents were both Catholic, and I was baptised shortly after my birth, as was the Catholic tradition at the time. When I was six years old my family moved to Carleton Place and this is where I spent most of my formative early years growing up. My family eventually moved one final time back to Renfrew when my aunt, who lived in Renfrew, moved into the Quail Creek residence and we moved into my father’s ancestorial home on Barr Street. At this point in my life journey I began the discernment between two unique but complementary pursuits, the profession of teaching and the passion of missionary outreach. I started my spiritual journey by exploring the Missionary Oblates of Mary Immaculate, which is a missionary religious congregation in the Catholic Church. It was founded on January 25, 1816, by Saint Eugène de Mazenod, a French priest born in Aix-en- Provence in the south of France on August 1, 1782. The congregation was given recognition by Pope Leo XII on February 17, 1826. The congregation is composed of priests and brothers usually living in community. Oblate means a person dedicated to God or God’s service. As a young man, I joined what they would call their Novitiate year to discern a calling to this missionary faith community. -
The History of Editing Literary and Theatrical Works of Karol Wojtyła – John Paul II*
The Person and the Challenges Volume 9 (2019) Number 1, p. 127–153 DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.15633/pch.3366 Jacek Popiel ORCID: https://orcid.org/0000-0002-8790-2757 Jagiellonian University, Poland The History of Editing Literary and Theatrical Works of Karol Wojtyła – John Paul II* Abstract The article is devoted to the history of the edition of literary and theater works of Karol Wojtyla – John Paul II. Based on the surviving materials in the archives, often unknown facts were presented showing the subsequent phases of discovery of Wojtyła as a poet, playwright, and actor. Keywords John Paul II, history of literature, poetry, drama, theatre. The editing of literary and theatrical works of Karol Wojtyła – John Paul II – is warranted by a conviction that you cannot fully understand the person of the Holy Father without an insight into this part of his biography that concerns his fascination with poetry, drama and theatre. Therefore, you need to refer to the sources: manuscripts and typescripts, Church and private archives, and to carry out a comparative study of the preserved materials. In the event of each researcher, such work is combined with the hope of managing to get to the * The text is an introduction to the book: Karol Wojtyła. Jan Paweł II, Dzieła literackie i teatralne.

In her life she reconciled aspects of spirituality often seen to be either mutually exclusive or in conflict. This married lay woman was both a mystic and a humanitarian, a constant contemplative, yet daily immersed in the physical care of the sick and the destitute. For the last five centuries she has been the inspiration of such spiritual greats as Francis de Sales, Robert Bellarmine, Fenelon. Newman and Hecker. -

1 the Female Genius, As St. John Paul II Developed It 4/15/18 Introduction Everyone Knows That God's Gifts to Women Exceed Ou
The Female Genius, as St. John Paul II Developed It 4/15/18 Introduction Everyone knows that God’s gifts to women exceed our understanding. But we observe that females use their ge- nius to care for the needy people. This is most obvious in baby-care. Males can’t begin to compete, because they lack the female genius that empowers women to nurse people, animals, even plants, into improved life. They help them flourish. One way to express this female genius is that women nurture life. They love to help life grow. This general de- scription is a good start. It distinguishes women’s specifically female gifts from a long list of their other gifts, like beauty, serenity, and superior coordination. Most women take these gifts for granted. They are too busy using them to talk about them. They act them out quite naturally. Women don’t wait for concepts or verbal description. What can words add to the unfolding of their genius in action? Most men stand in awe, struck dumb by the splendor of female gifts. But taking ladies for granted can degenerate into abuse of the gentler, weaker, woman. So notorious is man’s abuse of woman that for the past 50 years we have designated women a minority. By head-count women are the majority. But by dominance, their weakness resembles that of a numerical minority, overwhelmed by a majority. Abuse of women in his native Poland urges Karol Wojtyla to defend them. His philosophical analysis of women uncovers the female genius. Ready to defend Polish women against Communists, he surprises everyone by being elected Pope in October 1978. -
