    IN HAC TANTA ENCYCLICAL OF POPE BENEDICT XV ON ST. BONIFACE TO HIS EMINENCE CARDINAL HARTMANN, ARCHBISHOP OF COLOGNE, AND TO THE OTHER ARCHBISHOPS OF GERMANY. May, 14, 1919 Beloved Son and Venerable Brothers, Greetings and The Apostolic Blessing. We are in the midst of many trials and difficulties "and besides the other sufferings, there is my constant daily concern, for all the churches,"[1] to use the words of the Apostle. We have closely followed those unexpected events, those manifestations of disorder and of anarchy which have recently occurred among you and among neighboring countries. They continue to hold us in suspense. 2. In these dark times, the memory of St. Boniface, who brought salvation to Germany twelve centuries ago, is a ray of light and a messenger of hope and joy. We commemorate the ancient union of the German people with the Apostolic See. This union planted the first seeds of faith in your country and helped them grow. After the Roman See entrusted Boniface with this legation, he ennobled it by the exceptional glory of his deeds and, finally, by the blood of martyrdom. 3. Now twelve centuries later, we think you should plan as many celebrations as possible to commemorate this new era of Christian civilization. This era was begun by the mission and the preaching of Boniface, and then carried forth by his disciples and successors. From these came the salvation and the prosperity of Germany. 4. Another purpose of the celebrations is to perfect the present and to reestablish religious unity and peace for the future.

    Pope Innocent XI (1611-1689) [1]

    Published on The Embryo Project Encyclopedia (https://embryo.asu.edu) Pope Innocent XI (1611-1689) [1] By: Brind'Amour, Katherine Garcia, Benjamin Keywords: Catholicism [2] Popes [3] Abortion [4] Fetus [5] Pope Innocent XI [6], born Benedetto Odescalchi, made considerable contributions to the Roman Catholic approach to embryology [7] by condemning several propositions on liberal moral theology in 1679, including two related to abortion [8] and ensoulment [9]. His rejection of these principles strengthened the Church’s stance against abortion [8] and for the idea of “hominization,” meaning the presence of human qualities before birth. He was born 19 May in 1611 in Como, Italy, and began his studies under the Jesuits at Como before studying jurisprudence at both Naples and Rome. Pope Urban VIII named him prothonotary, president of the Apostolic Camera, commissary at Ancona, administrator of Macerata, and governor of Picena in succession. Shortly thereafter he was appointed cardinal-deacon of Santi Cosma e Damiano in 1645 before being named cardinal-priest of Sant’ Onofrio by Pope Innocent X. During his time as cardinal, Odescalchi was beloved by his people for his love, charity, and devotion to his position. He spent the majority of his time and effort trying to preserve the purity of faith and the morals that governed this purity. This effort to maintain traditionalism and wholesomeness resulted in regulating the dress of Roman women, suppressing the gambling houses, and encouraging receiving daily Communion. Odescalchi was actually introduced to the famine-stricken people of Ferrara as “Mittimus patrem pauperum,” meaning “father of the poor” because of his characteristic attention to their needs.

De Luca’s famous Theatrum veritatis, et justitiae and the early modern legal practice and jurisprudence, formed the main topics of this presentation in the seminar. First, D’Errico tried with his contribution to sketch the importance of Cardinal De Luca for the history of law and jurisprudence and to fill the gap in research existing in particular with regard to his role in particular as a reformer. Secondly, the presentation was about the Roman Inquisition, which De Luca has perceptively analysed and criticized in the Theatrum. The early recognition of the Cardinal of the crisis of law and jurisdiction of the Roman curia and his proposal to eliminate the confusion arising out of the multitude of courts of the Papal States caused took several attempts of the Roman Inquisition to put his work on the Index Librorum Prohibitorum , which D’Errico tried to demonstrate in many ways.

    THE INDEPENDENCE OF THE CELTIC CHURCH 121 THE INDEPENDENCE Oli" THE CELTIC CHURCH. BY THE REV. F. R. MONTGOMERY HITCHCOCK, D.D. THE CHURCH OF IRELAND: ITS CONNECTION WITH THE EAST; ITS DIFFERENCES FROM THE CHURCH OF ROME; ITS INDEPENDENCE. HE Church of Ireland until the twelfth century, generally T speaking, for six centuries, was a free and a nationa.J. Church. It had many points of contact with the Eastern Church which suggest an Eastern origin, and as many points of difference from the Roman Church which make a Roman origin impossible. In the first place, we shall briefly summarize the points of contact with the East. With regard to the monastic habitations, they resemble in plan, i.e. a group of small huts surrounded by a cashel, the communities of the East, like that of Mount Tabor, after which they were modelled. 1 The ascetic practices of the Irish hermit, such as suspending oneself by the armpits from hooks, a were imitations of the devices in self-torture discovered by the anchorites of the Syrian desert, probably in imitation of the Indian fakir's methods of self-torture. The smallness of the ·churches reminded travellers of those of Mount Athos and Asia Minor ; and the group of seven churches, e.g. at Glendalough and Clonmacnois suggests the " Seven Churches of Asia." The shape of the doors of the hermitages of SS. Flannan and Molua at Killaloe, broader at the threshold than at the head, resembles Egyptian style of architecture. The circle of the Irish cross is probably the loop of the crux ansata of the Egyptians, their circle of life being an emblem of immortality.

    “The Truth about Reasoning”: Veiled Propaganda and the Manipulation of Absolutist Authority in Eustache Le Noble’s La Pierre de touche politique (1688!1691) by Kathrina Ann LaPorta I. Introduction: The Political Stakes of Eustache Le Noble’s Pasquinades In a letter dated August 5, 1694, French chief of police Gabriel Nicolas de la Reynie confesses his incapacity to prevent the publication of satirical pamphlets penned by then-imprisoned aristocrat Eustache Le Noble: Ce n’est pas la première fois qu’il a été défendu à cet auteur de mettre au jour des écrits de sa composition, ni la première fois qu’on a enlevé d’entre ses mains, pendant sa prison, les ouvrages de sa façon qu’il y vendait avec beau- coup de scandale. Il a toujours trouvé des protecteurs et des partisans qui ont cru qu’il était utile de laisser à cet homme la liberté d’écrire sur toutes sortes de matières. On ne sau- rait dire combien de manières il en a abusé, et à quel excès il ne s’est porté, ni répondre non plus qu’il se contienne à l’avenir. (Reynie) This is not the first time that this author was forbidden from bringing to light his writings, nor the first time that someone removed from his hands, during his imprison- ment, his works that he was scandalously selling there. He has always found protectors and supporters who found it useful to grant this man the freedom to write on all sorts of subject matters. One cannot say how many ways he has abused this freedom, and to what excess he has taken it, nor whether he will control himself in the future.

    The Story of Saint Boniface, the Namesake

    The story of Saint Boniface, the Namesake Compiled by Charlene Pierce, passim St. Boniface was Anglo-Saxon by birth, born in England. His birth name was Winfred but was named “Boniface” by Pope St. Gregory II. He commissioned Boniface to preach the faith to all the nations of Germany. In 730, a rift widened between Rome and the East, and Pope Gregory III found himself in the midst of the plague of Islam. “And no wonder when those fiery sons of the desert, sworn to violence and bloodshed, continued their steady advance with swinging scimitar, conquering everything in their way….. and everywhere they left ruin and horror…… God forbid they ever rule the West.” Nobody knew better than Pope Gregory that the one earthly power that could keep the Moslem at bay was the Franks. A fierce battle was joined which lasted seven days. At the first stroke of the Moslem attack scimitar crossed with sword in a life-and-death struggle….. On the seventh day the tide turned against the invader, whose forces were mowed down by the Franks. After this battle, the war- bent King was known as Martel, the Hammer. Charles the Hammer had little regard for the Church and viewed its power as an encroachment. The King of the Franks ran things with a free hand and rewarded his nobles with large estates of the Church. There was decline of intelligence and character in the priesthood. Many ignorant aspirants, unable even to read Latin or preach effectively, got themselves ordained only to make money by exercising their spiritual functions.
