    The Gospel according to MARK: a personal view Owen O’Sullivan OFM Cap. 1 © Owen O’Sullivan OFM Cap., 2007. 2 The Gospel according to MARK: a personal view Contents Page Preface iv Sources used v Introduction 1 Main Text 6 3 Preface I was stationed in the Catholic parish of Christ the Redeemer, in Lagmore, West Belfast, Northern Ireland, between 2001 and 2007. When the liturgical year 2005-06 began on the first Sunday of Advent, 27 November 2005, with the Gospel of Mark as the Sunday Gospel, I decided to begin a study of it, in order to learn more about it and understand it better, and, hopefully, to be able to preach better on it at Sunday Mass. I also hoped that this study would be of benefit to me in my faith. It was never on my mind, then or now, that it be published. It is not good enough for that. I have had no formal training in scripture studies, other than what I learned in preparing for the priesthood. Mostly, it has been a matter of what I learned in later years from reflection in daily prayer and personal study, of which I did a good deal. It took me more than a year to complete the study of Mark, but I found that it carried me along, and I wanted to bring it to completion. I was glad to be able to do that early in 2007. The finished product I printed and bound principally for my own use, simply to make it 4 easier to refer to for study or preaching.

  • Kodak Catholicism: Miraculous Photography and Its Significance at a Post- Conciliar Marian Apparition Site in Canada
    CCHA, Historical Studies, 70 (2004), 71-93 Kodak Catholicism: Miraculous Photography and its Significance at a Post- Conciliar Marian Apparition Site in Canada Jessy C. PAGLIAROLI There are many people who feel that the ability to maintain an enchanted religious worldview has become increasingly difficult for American and Canadian Catholics in the years following the Second Vatican Council. Proponents of this view have often pointed to three different factors to support their claim. These include the notion that heightened diabolical activity from Satan and his minions is luring people away from knowing and perceiving the action of God’s grace in their life; that living in a predominantly secular and materialistic culture has devalued the mystical and the merits of religion; and lastly, that the modernization of the Catholic Church, mainly as a result of the reforms of the Second Vatican council, has made it increasingly difficult for people to perceive the propinquity of the sacred within the Church. Those who note the last factor, often suggest that architectural changes, the use of the vernacular language, and the gradual suppression of paraliturgical activities and personal sacramental objects such as rosaries, scapulars, religious medals, and so forth, has functioned to de- emphasize the immediacy of the supernatural within Catholicism.1 While Catholicism may seem less mysterious and enchanted to certain church going Catholics, especially those born before Vatican II, there exists, beyond the walls of the parish church and outside of standard liturgical celebrations, a Catholic culture made up of different movements that is driven by a desire to re-awaken what it perceives is a 1 The following represents a summary of responses given by various Canadian and American Catholics interviewed by the author.

SERIALIZING THE MIDDLE AGES: TELEVISION AND THE (RE)PRODUCTION OF POP CULTURE MEDIEVALISMS A Thesis presented in partial fulfillment of requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in the Department of English The University of Mississippi by Sara McClendon Knight May 2012 Copyright Sara McClendon Knight 2012 ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ABSTRACT In his now canonical “Dreaming the Middle Ages,” Umberto Eco famously quips that “it seems that people like the Middle Ages” (61). Eco’s apt sentiment still strikes a resonant chord some twenty years after its publication; there is indeed something about the Middle Ages that continues to fascinate our postmodern society. One of the most tangible ways this interest manifests itself is through our media. This project explores some of the ways that representations of the medieval past function within present-day reimaginings in the media. More specifically, television’s obvious visual textuality, widespread popularity, and virtually untapped scholarly potential offer an excellent medium through which to analyze pop culture medievalisms—the creative tensions that exists between medieval culture and the way it is reimagined, recreated, or reproduced in the present.

  • Marian Apparition
    Marian apparition The Marian Vision of Saint Bernard, by Fra Bartolommeo, c. 1504 (Uffizi, Florence). A Marian apparition is a reported supernatural appear- ance by the Blessed Virgin Mary. The figure is often named after the town where it is reported, or on the sobriquet given to Mary on the occasion of the appari- tion. They have been interpreted in religious terms as theophanies. Marian apparitions sometimes are reported to recur at the A photostatic copy of a page from Ilustração Portuguesa, October same site over an extended period of time.

  • Mary's Reincarnation and the Banality of Salvation: the Millennialist Cultus of the Lady of All Nations/Peoples
    Numen 59 (2012) 486–508 brill.com/nu Mary’s Reincarnation and the Banality of Salvation: The Millennialist Cultus of the Lady of All Nations/Peoples Peter Jan Margry Meertens Institute, Royal Netherlands Academy of Arts and Sciences PO Box 94264 — 1090 GG Amsterdam, The Netherlands [email protected] Abstract This article deals with the transnational Dutch-Canadian apparitional cultus of our Lady of All Nations/Peoples. It analyses how contemporary visionary Catholicism is influenced by religious eclecticism, esotericism, and New Age spiritualities, and how this devotion has shifted into an autonomous millennialist movement. Finding fertile soil in modern societies in socio-economic, political, and religious crisis, and due to the dwindling of existential certainties at the individual level, its ideology of “progres- sive millennialism” has shown itself to be a successful religious format that mobilizes devotees, even when its deviation brings the movement into conflict with the formal Church.
