The Schottenklöster in the World: Identity, Independence and Integration*
chapter 16 The Schottenklöster in the World: Identity, Independence and Integration* Diarmuid Ó Riain Introduction One of the central concerns of the original Enclaves of Learning, Religion, Ideology and Practice working group was to examine the multifaceted connec- tions between the “enclave” and the surrounding world and to illustrate how texts produced within these communities served to both record and reinter- pret this interaction as well as having the potential to change the underlying relationships.1 This approach essentially treats of the physical, legal or other factors underpinning the identification as an enclave of learning, religion, ideol- ogy and practice within the broader context of the institution’s social relations, thereby seeking to redress the potentially problematic semantic implications of the term “enclave”. The focus of my paper will be the so-called Schottenklöster or Irish Benedictine monasteries, which were established between the later 11th and early 13th centuries in modern-day southern Germany and Austria. That the monasteries of medieval Europe were deeply embedded in the wider social environment rather than detached islands goes, of course, almost with- out saying.2 This reality coexisted, however, with what Hallinger called the traditional gegenweltliche instincts of monasticism, and the rhetoric of with- drawal from the world would always remain prominent, particularly in the context of the emergence of new monastic movements.3 What makes the Schottenklöster an especially interesting case-study with regard to the interplay between idealized detachment and actual integration is the issue of ethnicity; the Irish identity of the monasteries was their sine qua non, and, accordingly, had a profound influence on the level of independence and integration they * The research for this article was funded by the Austrian Science Fund (FWF): F42 Visions of Community. -
The Irish Catholic Episcopal Corps, 1657 – 1829: a Prosopographical Analysis
THE IRISH CATHOLIC EPISCOPAL CORPS, 1657 – 1829: A PROSOPOGRAPHICAL ANALYSIS VOLUME 1 OF 2 BY ERIC A. DERR THESIS FOR THE DEGREE OF PHD DEPARTMENT OF HISTORY NATIONAL UNIVERISTY OF IRELAND MAYNOOTH SUPERVISOR OF RESEARCH: DR. THOMAS O’CONNOR NOVEMBER 2013 Abstract This study explores, reconstructs and evaluates the social, political, educational and economic worlds of the Irish Catholic episcopal corps appointed between 1657 and 1829 by creating a prosopographical profile of this episcopal cohort. The central aim of this study is to reconstruct the profile of this episcopate to serve as a context to evaluate the ‘achievements’ of the four episcopal generations that emerged: 1657-1684; 1685- 1766; 1767-1800 and 1801-1829. The first generation of Irish bishops were largely influenced by the complex political and religious situation of Ireland following the Cromwellian wars and Interregnum. This episcopal cohort sought greater engagement with the restored Stuart Court while at the same time solidified their links with continental agencies. With the accession of James II (1685), a new generation of bishops emerged characterised by their loyalty to the Stuart Court and, following his exile and the enactment of new penal legislation, their ability to endure political and economic marginalisation. Through the creation of a prosopographical database, this study has nuanced and reconstructed the historical profile of the Jacobite episcopal corps and has shown that the Irish episcopate under the penal regime was not only relatively well-organised but was well-engaged in reforming the Irish church, albeit with limited resources. By the mid-eighteenth century, the post-Jacobite generation (1767-1800) emerged and were characterised by their re-organisation of the Irish Church, most notably the establishment of a domestic seminary system and the setting up and manning of a national parochial system. -

Leaving Certificate History Case Study
LEAVING CERTIFICATE HISTORY CASE STUDY Meiler Magrath’s Clerical Career EARLY MODERN IRELAND: TOPIC 2 REBELLION AND CONQUEST IN ELIZABETHAN IRELAND, 1558-1603 A resource for teachers of Leaving Certificate History, developed by the National Library of Ireland in association with the National Council for Curriculum and Assessment Written by: Dr Brian Kirby Steering Committee: Dr Ciaran Brady, Mr John Dredge, Dr Noel Kissane, Mr Gerry Lyne Contents Introduction 3 Biographical Notes 6 Glossary 9 List of abbreviations 11 Chronology of Meiler Magrath's life 12 Documents used in case study 14 Documents 16 2 Introduction Meiler Magrath was one of the most prominent and controversial figures of Elizabethan Ireland. He was born into a Gaelic ecclesiastical family in Fermanagh. His kin held the territory of *Termon Magrath which included St. Patrick’s Purgatory on Lough Derg. Meiler became a Franciscan friar and in October 1565 he was appointed bishop of Down and Connor by the Pope. Soon afterwards, however, he was captured by the English, took the oath of supremacy and conformed to Protestantism. Even though the exact circumstances of his conversion remain unknown, it is clear that Queen Elizabeth had enough faith in Magrath to appoint him bishop of Clogher in 1570 and promote him to the archbishopric of Cashel five months later. During his long clerical career he also received appointments to the bishoprics of Waterford and Lismore and Killala and Achonry. However, this brief sketch of Magrath’s life does little justice to a man who became an extremely influential political figure in the latter years of Elizabeth’s reign. -
Background to Stanwix Hospital and Alms-Houses
Background to Stanwix Hospital and Alms - houses The familiar red - brick terrace of small hou ses, in their own grounds, has stood in Kickham Street, Thurles, since 1889. Colloquially known in Thurles as “The Widows’ Homes”, their official title is “The Stanwix Hospital and Alms - houses”. The first residents , ten widows, moved in at the beginning of September 1890. There was a M atron to supervise, and by the end of 1898 the 2 nd phase of the complex was completed, with the addition of a further 8 houses. Ever since, they have provided sheltered housing for women in retirement, faithful to th e vision of the founder Emma Sla ughter Stanwix. Emma Stanwix , an English woman, an absente e Landlord, a private and reserved lady, an arti st, lived for many years in Versailles, France. S he i nherited her estate of 14 town s - lands in Moycarkey p arish from her father Thomas Sla ughter Stanwix, a high - ranking Officer in the English army. Wilson’s Di rectory lists Shanbally Castle, near Moycarkey, as the residence of Thomas Sla ughter Stanwix , though he rarely, if ever, lived there. Away on army duties, he was commissioned a s Lieutenant - General in 1806 . Going further back in history, during the Cromwellian Wars (1649 - ’52 ) , Cromwell and his forces spent over six months in Mid Tipperary. His cannon shelled Moycarkey Castle, doing considerable damage. Moycarkey Castle was the home of the Cantwell family, An glo - Normans, at the time. William and John Cantwell held substantial lands, and these were confiscated in the Cromwellian Plantation (1653). -

Many seniors found a piece of music, taught it to the band, and directed the piece at the concert. Highlights included the use of a taiko drum in a Japanese folk song, violin players from the orchestra club, and choir students who added to the night’s unforgetable performance. The seniors presented Mr. Kato with a gift of a ham as their thanks for four years of patience, friendship, and donuts.

History of Saint Joseph Parish, Clarksburg
SACRAMENTO DIOCESAN ARCHIVES Vol 4 Father John E Boll No 60 History of Saint Joseph Parish, Clarksburg Photo by John E Boll Saint Joseph Church, Clarksburg, California THE RISE OF FREEPORT IN IMPORTANCE The history of Freeport goes back further than that of most of the other towns along the Sacramento River. In the final years of the gold rush, it was a major shipping center for the mines. In 1855, the Sacramento Valley Railroad was completed—the first in the West. It went from Sacramento to beyond Folsom. A dispute arose between the owners of the railroad and the city of Sacramento which caused Freeport to grow in importance. The stage lines moved from Sacramento to Folsom in order to connect with the rail line and as a result of this, Sacramento lost money. To compensate for this loss, the city fathers decided to place a levy on every passenger and pound of freight that left the river to connect with the trains. The Railroad objected to this action so they pulled out of Sacramento to establish a new port down the river which would be free. This is how the town of Freeport got its name. Another advantage was not continuing up the river to Sacramento because there is a big bend in the river just beyond Freeport. When the wind was not blowing in the right direction, the ships might have to wait as long as two or three days to get around the bend and on to Sacramento. By stopping at the new free port, they could save valuable time as well as money. -
THE INTERNMENT of the TAMAKI FAMILY in Tulelake During World War II
SACRAMENTO DIOCESAN ARCHIVES Vol 4 Father John E Boll, Diocesan Archivist No 17 THE INTERNMENT OF THE TAMAKI FAMILY In Tulelake during World War II By Father John E Boll One of the most egregious, myopic and unjust decisions made by the United States Government during World War II was Executive Order 9066 issued on February 19, 1942 by President Franklin D. Roosevelt when he accepted the argument of “military necessity” and turned the “Japanese problem” over to the U.S. Army. Soon after, the War Relocation Authority (WRA) was created and the Army supervised the massive displacement of Japanese Americans to temporary detention centers and then to ten inland concentration camps under the administration of the WRA. From March to November 1942, over 120,000 Japanese Americans were moved to concentration camps. Regulations specified that anyone with as little as one-sixteenth part Japanese ancestry must be imprisoned. The Assembly Centers were Puyallup, WA; Portland, OR; Mayer, AZ; and in California, Marysville, Sacramento, Tanforan, Stockton, Turlock, Merced, Pinedale, Salinas, Fresno, Tulare, Santa Ana and Pomona. Relocation Centers where these Japanese Americans were incarcerated for four years were Manzanar, CA; Tulelake, CA; Poston and Gila, AZ; Minidoka, ID; Heart Mountain, WY; Granada, CO; Topaz, UT; and Rower and Jerome, AK. In Addition, the U.S. Justice Department operated internment camps in Santa Fe, NM; Bismarck, ND; Crystal City, TX; and Missoula, MT. On March 22, 1942, the first large contingent of Japanese, aliens and citizens, were moved from Los Angeles to Manzanar Assembly Center in Owens Valley, CA. On May 27, the first internees reached the Tulelake Relocation Center in Modoc County, CA. -

Retired Auxiliary Bishop Thomas Flanagan, 89, Dies Oct. 9; Remembered for Character, Personal Qualities
Retired Auxiliary Bishop Thomas Flanagan, 89, dies Oct. 9; remembered for character, personal qualities Retired Auxiliary Bishop Thomas Flanagan, 89, remembered for a life of faithful priestly service in many ways to the people of the archdiocese, died October 9 in San Antonio following a long illness. In recent years the bishop lived at the Padua Place residence for retired clergy. Funeral arrangements are pending. Archbishop Gustavo García-Siller, MSpS, said, “On behalf of myself, Auxiliary Bishop Michael Boulette, Bishop Emeritus Michael Pfeifer, OMI, and Bishop Emeritus John Yanta, we offer our condolences to the family and countless friends of Bishop Tom Flanagan. He was a blessing for so many; and in his service in parishes and ministries he was a symbol of God’s grace.” Auxiliary Bishop Michael Boulette stated, “Bishop Tom, as so many addressed him, was a gentle giant, a quiet saint. His ministry as priest and bishop in our archdiocese assisted so many with the grace of God which he lived and preached. His enthusiasm for the spirit of the Second Vatican Council permitted the rapid implementation of its principles in his parishes and later in the entire archdiocese. Bishop Tom was a much sought out spiritual director. He listened with the heart of Jesus and assisted with the process of discernment in the lives of countless seekers of God’s will. His welcome into the Kingdom of God will be swift. Well done good and faithful servant.” Bishop Brendan Cahill of the Diocese of Victoria commented, “I always admired and respected Bishop Tom’s missionary zeal, his energy, and his good nature.
