The violence, inflicted by one man, targeting a group gathered for prayer, is truly horrifying. We struggle to understand what would bring a person to want to do this.

  • Turnham, Margaret H. (2012) Roman Catholic Revivalism
    Roman Catholic Revivalism: A study of the area that became the Diocese of Middlesbrough 1779-1992 Margaret H. Turnham, B.Ed., M.Th. Thesis submitted to the University of Nottingham for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy. July 2012 i Abstract This thesis seeks to provide a grassroots study of the diocese of Middlesbrough (1779-1992), in order to contribute to the history of the English Catholic community since it emerged from the Penal Times. Secondly, it is an examination of the manifestation of revivalism and renewal in Catholic devotional practice. The geographical extent of the study covers an area of Yorkshire with a strong recusant history, and that period has been well-served in Catholic historiography. However, writing on the period following the easing of the Penal Laws on Catholics and into the nineteenth and twentieth centuries is remarkable for the paucity of references to the diocese and the area that it covers. Therefore this study sheds light upon a particular Catholic community that has been largely invisible to historians. Although the Catholic community itself might appear to be invisible, the devotional practice within it offers many insights, such as the extent to which the social culture influenced the practice of faith. Therefore it teases out and examines the changing nature of devotional practice, and compares it to aspects of Evangelical revivalism that provided the surrounding religious culture. It also examines the influences that came to bear upon the community itself, assessing their importance in the revival and renewal of faith of the people within it. By examining the history of Catholic devotional practice in this area of Yorkshire, it comes to the conclusion that revivalism and renewal are integral elements in Catholic devotion and as a result Catholics and Evangelicals have more in common with each other than their adherents have been ready to acknowledge.

  • TRADTIONAL ARCHITECTURE in the PACIFIC Architecture of The
    TRADTIONAL ARCHITECTURE IN THE PACIFIC Architecture of the Pacific covers a region of more than third of the earth’s surface. The sparse Pacific population spreads over some 30 000 islands, which graduate in size from small atolls to the largest island, Australia, a continent. Pacific architecture can be studied as four cultural units: Micronesia, Polynesia, Melanesia, and Australasia (Australia and New Zealand). While many of the islands of Micronesia lie above the Equator, the remaining Pacific islands are in the southern hemisphere. With the exception of Australia, most of the islands have a warm and humid tropical climate with high rainfalls and lush vegetation. Some islands lie in the cyclonic and earthquake belts. Two distinct racial groups settled the region. The indigenous people, the Micronesians, Melanesians, Polynesians, Australian Aborigines and New Zealand Maoris, migrated from Asia thousands of years ago. The second group, the recent immigrants, were Europeans, who occupied the region during the last two centuries, and pockets of Asians brought in by colonial administrations as labourers during the early twentieth century. European colonizing incursions into the Pacific islands began during the eighteenth century, as the Industrial Revolution stimulated the need for raw materials and markets. The English, the French and the Americans followed Spanish and Dutch explorers. Simple trading arrangements were soon replaced by more permanent control exercised by white planters who set up copra, sugar and cotton plantations. During the same period, there was a steady growth in missionary influence that radically altered the lifestyle and culture of the Pacific islanders. The most intense period of colonization lasted from 1870 to 1900 when much of the Pacific region was carved up among the English, the French, the Germans and the Americans.

  • Francis William Petre, Often Known As Frank, Was Born at Petone
    In Dunedin’s Andersons Bay Cemetery lies the grave of one of Dunedin’s famous early architects. Francis William Petre, often known as Frank, was born at Petone, New Zealand, on 27 August 1847, the third of 16 children of Henry William Petre and his wife, Mary Anne Ellen Walmsley. His father, one of the founders of Wellington and Colonial Treasurer of New Munster, was the second son of the 11th Baron Petre, a director of the New Zealand Company. The Petres were one of England’s oldest and most influential Catholic families, and Francis’s religious faith played a major role in his career. In 1855 or 1856 Francis returned with his parents to England where he attended the Jesuit institution of Mount St Mary College in Derbyshire from 1856 to 1860. After a brief period at the Royal Naval College, Portsmouth, in 1860-61 he attended Monsignor Haffreingue’s college at Boulogne-sur-Mer and completed his education at Ushaw College, Durham. From 1864 to 1869 he was articled to Joseph Samuda of London, a prominent shipbuilder and engineer. He then worked for the architect and engineer Daniel Cubitt Nicholls whose activities ranged from office and warehouse design to sewerage construction. Petre’s experience with Samuda and Nicholls provided him with a thorough understanding of the latest engineering techniques including the use of concrete. In 1872 Petre was employed by John Brogden and Sons as an engineer for railway construction and returned to New Zealand, settling in Dunedin. He supervised the building of the Dunedin to Balclutha and Blenheim to Picton railways before establishing a private engineering and architectural practice in 1875.

During the last few years there has undoubtedly been more concern shown by congregations and dioceses in their history and in preserving the archives and other historical evidences recording it. Clear indications of this concern are the realisation that the original vocation of a religious congregation, the renewal of which is urged by Vatican II, is recorded principally in its archives, the provisions for the care of archives in rules and constitutions of congregations and in the new code of canon law, the encouragement given to archivists by the Conferences of Major Religious Super- iors in both countries, and new appointments of archivists in several dioceses within recent years.
