  • The University Church Brochure
    THE UNIVERSITY CHURCH “When you put it all together, what is a Jesuit education all about? It is about nothing less than empowerment and transformation. And this is the way in which the transformation takes place: Cared for, our students are challenged. Challenged, they awaken to their real potential. Awakened, they are transformed. Transformed, they are empowered. Empowered, they emerge from their experience at the University as recognizable Jesuit graduates: They are men and women of competence, conscience, compassion, and commitment to the cause of the human family. They become men and women with a difference—and men and women who make a difference in the world.” — JOSEPH M. MCSHANE, S.J., PRESIDENT, FORDHAM UNIVERSITY Welcome TO THE UNIVERSITY CHURCH, THE VERY CENTER OF FORDHAM’S SPIRITUAL AND INTELLECTUAL LIFE SINCE ITS BEGINNING. Archbishop John Hughes built this house of prayer where the Lord has made His home for more than a century and a half. So great was his love for this church that, in 1845, when the stained-glass windows that Louis Philippe I, the King of France, donated to Old St. Patrick’s Cathedral on Mulberry Street turned out to be the wrong size for that cathedral, Archbishop Hughes had them installed in the modest church that he built on the campus of St. John’s College. I am sure that Anthony Kohlmann, S.J., the founder and first rector of Old St. Patrick’s Cathedral, would be pleased that Archbishop Hughes’ gift bore—and continues to bear—witness to the mutual love and respect that has always existed between the Society of Jesus and the Church of New York.

  • I Am Eagle” – Depictions of Raptors and Their Meaning in the Art of Late Iron Age and Viking Age Scandinavia (C
    “I am Eagle” – Depictions of raptors and their meaning in the art of Late Iron Age and Viking Age Scandinavia (c. AD 400–1100) By Sigmund Oehrl Keywords: Raptor and fish, picture stones, Old Norse Poetry, Vendel Period, Viking Period Abstract: This paper is restricted to some of the most frequent and most relevant raptor motifs in the iconography of Late Iron Age and Viking Scandinavia, focussing on some of the most prominent materials. Raptors are an important motif in Scandinavian, Anglo-Saxon and Continental Germanic art, carrying very different meanings. In the Migration Period, the raptor-fish motif seems to be con- nected with ideas of regeneration – probably influenced by ancient and Christian traditions. It occurs on precious artefacts like the Golden Horns from Gallehus and a gold bracteate (pendant) from the British Museum. In the iconography of the gold bracteates, birds of prey are a common motif and are closely linked to the chief god, Odin. During the Vendel/Merovingian and Viking Periods, on decorated helmets and picture stones in particular, the eagle was associated with fighting, war and death, as in Old Norse skaldic poetry. In Late Viking art, especially on rune stones, the topic of falconry was gaining in importance. Hunting with raptors seems also to be reflected in the use of raptor motifs in Viking heraldry (Rurikid dynasty), which refer to falconry as a particularly noble form of hunting and an explicitly aristocratic pastime. IntroductIon Birds of prey have been omnipresent in the art of Late Iron Age and Viking Scandinavia since the Migration Period, when Germanic styles and iconography – mainly inspired by Late Roman art – became increasingly independent and started to establish themselves in large parts of central and northern Europe.
