D We know, however, that Easter follows Good Friday. The Cross comes first. Jesus embraced the Cross until death and then rose again. Have you ever wondered how Francis, our founder, expe- rienced Easter? It seems to me that above all it was on La Verna – when he felt alone and abandoned by his friars, when he was asking himself over and over, My God, who are You and who am I? It was then that he found himself before the Crucified, and when he identi- fied himself with the same Crucified One. He received the stigmata and in that moment he embraced both the Crucified and his own Mobile app cross as well. Thus Francis became able to say: You are good, all good, the highest good, You are beauty, You are meekness. This is OFMCap my hope for all of you, that you do not fear to embrace your crosses, your sufferings and difficulties, because it is by means of them that you will find an experience of Easter in your lives.

Instructor: Anselma Dolcich-Ashley, Ph.D. [email protected] Office: 309 O’Shaughnessy (inside the Glynn Family Honors Program lounge) Office hours: 11:30 am-12:00 noon, and 3:00-4:00 pm Syllabus subject to updates, alterations, new bright ideas, and changes. Course Description: Pope Francis has emerged as one of the most well known of the world’s personalities because of his simplicity, his closeness to the vulnerable and poor, his defense of the earth and the environment, and his advocacy for reforms within the Catholic Church. This course will examine Pope Francis’ unique contributions to and applications of Catholic moral theology which themselves draw on traditions of Christian spirituality, his participation in the modern Latin American context, and his discernment of moral concerns throughout the Catholic Church globally. We will study official papal (2013- present) and episcopal statements (1992-2013) and compare them with analogues from Popes Benedict XVI and St John Paul II. In addition we will understand Pope Francis’ place in the trajectory of Catholic moral theology of the post-Vatican II period. Goals: 1. To think like moral theologians, and to become better moral theologians by means of engaging theoretically and practically with Vatican II’s urging that moral theology connect closely with Scripture and the Christian life. 2. To understand and articulate Pope Francis’ unique contributions to moral theology in the context of the Catholic Church in the modern world. Books and Readings: 1. Our textbook is: William Spohn, Go and Do Likewise: Jesus and Ethics (Bloomsbury, 2000).

These themes are united to a program of reform touching on doctrinal, ecclesiological, and pastoral matters; as well as attendant wider theological, philosophical, and affective issues. However, the general unsystematicity of both these readings and Francis’ texts themselves makes it difficult to receive those texts in a way that integrates these various themes.

Sideris Introduction In his ecological encyclical Laudato Si’, Pope Francis characterizes his task as getting “to the roots of the present situation, so as to consider not only its symptoms but also its deepest causes”1 (§15). Francis articulates and defends an “adequate anthropology” and a proper vision of “reality” that effectively grounds - as well as limits - all human endeavors. In particular, his quest to locate the root causes of our present environmental and social crises engages him in a critique of a totalizing “technocratic paradigm” that stands in opposition to what Francis considers genuine reality in all its complexity and tangibility. The false reality of the technocratic paradigm encourages delusional forms of anthropocentrism and instrumentalization of others. It obscures the rights and needs of human and nonhuman others whom Francis repeatedly refers to as “the excluded.” Francis’s call to resist the homogenizing and totalizing impulse of both globalization and what I will call “techno-science” brings into sharper focus the plight of these excluded human and nonhuman others. In short, Laudato Si’ calls for a shift in perspective from false to genuine reality, a move that enables us to see all relationships as moral relationships, and ourselves as finite beings. But what is this reality to which Francis alludes so frequently, and how do humans access it? For the most part, Francis’s argument for the need to orient ourselves to reality is issued in an indirect fashion, but it is clear that reality stands in opposition to reductive, fragmented, highly specialized, and ideological distortions of the world around us.

  • Franciscan Spirituality and Economics
    religions Article Franciscan Spirituality and Economics Laszlo Zsolnai Business Ethics Center, Corvinus University of Budapest, Fovamter 8, 1093 Budapest, Hungary; [email protected] Received: 31 August 2018; Accepted: 20 September 2018; Published: 21 September 2018 Abstract: St. Francis was hostile to money and material wealth. He was also against exploitation or misuse of natural creatures and promoted voluntary poverty, sharing, and universal brotherhood. This paper examines the implications of St. Francis’s views for economics. It is argued that St. Francis’s views imply the substantive notion of the term “economic” and favor material sufficiency instead of financial efficiency. Pope Francis’s encyclical letter “Laudato si’” is consistent with and supports St. Francis’s views, which emphasize the frugality of consumption and acknowledging the intrinsic value of nature. The overall vision of St. Francis can be characterized as “The Commonwealth of Life” based on a God-centered, spiritual way of living and acting. The paper suggests that the models of a sufficiency-oriented community economy are relevant for realizing St. Francis’s legacy in today’s reality of climate change described by climate scientists as the “Hothouse Earth” pathway. Keywords: frugality; intrinsic value of nature; community economy; Laudato si’ 1. Introduction St. Francis has been declared as “the patron saint” of ecology (White 1967). However, his views are at odds with economics as it is understood and practiced today. St. Francis was hostile to money and material wealth. He was also against exploitation or misuse of natural creatures. Instead, he promoted voluntary poverty, sharing, and universal brotherhood. St. Francis’s hostile attitude toward commerce and materialistic affairs can be explained by his early “carrier”.
