  • Warrior-Bishops In
    WARRIOR-BISHOPSIN LA CHANSON DE ROLAND AND POWA DE MI0 CID EARL R. ANDERSON ARCHBISHOP TURPIN, THE fighting bishop in La Chanson de Roland, is a character whose behavior and attitudes are contrary to modem assumptions about what a medieval clergyman should have been. The poet's first mention of him, it is true, represents him in a role that is consistent with conventional views about the clergy: he volunteers to travel to Marsilion's court as Charlemagne's peace ambassador (264-73)-but so do the barons Naimon, Roland, and Olivier (246-58). In each subsequent appearance in the poem, however, Brpin accompanies the Frankish rearguard not as a peaceable messenger of the Prince of Peace but more and more as one of Charlemagne's most ferocious warriors. In his "sermun" at Roncevaux, he admonishes the Franks to fight, "Chrestientet aidez a sustenir" '[to] help to sustain the Christian faith' (1129), and "Clamez vos culpes, si preiez Deumercit" 'confess your sins, and pray to God for mercy' (1132), and he promises absolution for sins in exchange for military service, and martyrdom in exchange for death on the battlefield (1134-38). He rides to battle on a horse once owned by Grossaille, a king whom he had killed in Denmark (1488-89). During the course of battle, Tbrpin kills the Berber Corsablix, the enchanter Siglorel, the African Malquiant, the infernally-named Saracen Abisme, and four hundred others, elsewhere striking a War, Literature, and the Arts thousand blows (1235-60, 1390-95, 1414, 1470-1509, 1593-1612, 2091-98). lbrpin and Roland are the last of the Franks to die in the battle.

  • Olena Semenyaka, the “First Lady” of Ukrainian Nationalism
    Olena Semenyaka, The “First Lady” of Ukrainian Nationalism Adrien Nonjon Illiberalism Studies Program Working Papers, September 2020 For years, Ukrainian nationalist movements such as Svoboda or Pravyi Sektor were promoting an introverted, state-centered nationalism inherited from the early 1930s’ Ukrainian Nationalist Organization (Orhanizatsiia Ukrayins'kykh Natsionalistiv) and largely dominated by Western Ukrainian and Galician nationalist worldviews. The EuroMaidan revolution, Crimea’s annexation by Russia, and the war in Donbas changed the paradigm of Ukrainian nationalism, giving birth to the Azov movement. The Azov National Corps (Natsional’nyj korpus), led by Andriy Biletsky, was created on October 16, 2014, on the basis of the Azov regiment, now integrated into the Ukrainian National Guard. The Azov National Corps is now a nationalist party claiming around 10,000 members and deployed in Ukrainian society through various initiatives, such as patriotic training camps for children (Azovets) and militia groups (Natsional’ny druzhiny). Azov can be described as a neo- nationalism, in tune with current European far-right transformations: it refuses to be locked into old- fashioned myths obsessed with a colonial relationship to Russia, and it sees itself as outward-looking in that its intellectual framework goes beyond Ukraine’s territory, deliberately engaging pan- European strategies. Olena Semenyaka (b. 1987) is the female figurehead of the Azov movement: she has been the international secretary of the National Corps since 2018 (and de facto leader since the party’s very foundation in 2016) while leading the publishing house and metapolitical club Plomin (Flame). Gaining in visibility as the Azov regiment transformed into a multifaceted movement, Semenyaka has become a major nationalist theorist in Ukraine.

  • Reconquista and Spanish Inquisition
    Name __________________________________________ Date ___________ Class _______ Period _____ The Reconquista and the Spanish Inquisition by Jessica Whittemore (education-portal.com) Directions: Read the article and answer the questions in full sentences. Muslim Control Of Spain The Reconquista and especially the Inquisition encompass one of the darkest times in Spanish history. It was a time when faith, greed and politics combined to bring about the deaths of many. Let's start with the Spanish Reconquista. In simpler terms, the Reconquista was the attempt by Christian Spain to expel all Muslims from the Iberian Peninsula. In the 8th century, Spain was not one united nation but instead a group of kingdoms. In the early 8th century, these kingdoms of Spain were invaded by Muslim forces from North Africa. Within a few years of this invasion, most of Spain was under Muslim control. In fact, the Muslims renamed the Spanish kingdoms Al- Andalus or Andalusia, but for our purposes, we're going to stick with Spain. Since the Muslims were an advanced society, Spain prospered. The Muslims were also very tolerant of other religions, allowing Muslims, Christians and Jews to basically take up the same space. However, Muslim political leaders were very suspicious of one another, which led to disunity among the many kingdoms. This disunity opened up the doors for Christian rule to seep in, and while the Muslims kept firm control of the southern kingdoms of Granada, Christian power began taking hold in the northern kingdoms of Aragon, Castile and Navarre. By the end of the 13th century, only Granada remained under Muslim control.

  • Muslim and Jewish “Otherness” in the Spanish Nation-Building Process Throughout the Reconquista (1212-1614)
    MUSLIM AND JEWISH “OTHERNESS” IN THE SPANISH NATION-BUILDING PROCESS THROUGHOUT THE RECONQUISTA (1212-1614) A THESIS SUBMITTED TO THE GRADUATE SCHOOL OF SOCIAL SCIENCES OF MIDDLE EAST TECHNICAL UNIVERSITY BY EVRİM TÜRKÇELİK IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF SCIENCE IN THE DEPARTMENT OF EUROPEAN STUDIES AUGUST 2003 ABSTRACT MUSLIM AND JEWISH “OTHERNESS” IN THE SPANISH NATION- BUILDING PROCESS THROUGHOUT THE RECONQUISTA (1212-1614) Türkçelik, Evrim M.Sc. Department of European Studies Supervisor: Assist.Prof.Dr. Mustafa Soykut August 2003, 113 pages In 1492, the Catholic Monarchs Isabel and Ferdinand conquered Granada, the last Muslim Kingdom in Spain, issued the edict of expulsion of Jews and charged Christopher Columbus to find out a western route to Indies who by coincidence discovered America. These three momentous events led to construction of Spanish national unity and of the Spanish world empire. In this study, what we are looking for is the impact of the first two events, the conquest of Granada and the expulsion of the Jews, on the formation of the Spanish national unity and the Spanish nationhood vis-à-vis Jews and Muslims in its historical context. In this study, the concept of nation-building would be employed not in economic but in political, religious and cultural terms. This study, by using the historical analysis method, found that centuries-long Muslim and Jewish presence in Spain and the Spaniards’ fight for exterminating this religious, cultural and political pluralism led to the formation of unitary Catholic state and society in Spain in the period under consideration.

  • Clerical Opposition in Habsburg Castile
    02_EHQ 31/3 articles 3/7/01 10:13 am Page 323 Sean T. Perrone Clerical Opposition in Habsburg Castile Introduction The emergence of the new monarchies at the end of the fifteenth century and the beginning of the sixteenth century has often been considered a watershed mark in the development of the modern state. Historians and social scientists have argued that this transition led to greater royal control over society, including the clergy. John Thomson, for example, notes that in the fifteenth century princes gradually wrested from the papacy the right of appointment to ecclesiastical benefices, the right to tax the clergy, and greater jurisdictional rights over the national Church.1 According to the state-building paradigm, then, the new monarchies brought an end to the universalist claims of the popes and brought the national clergy more thoroughly under royal control. This suggests, however, a sharp discontinuity with the medieval past, which was full of struggles between Church and State. A few of the most notable examples include: the ‘investiture con- flict’ in Germany, which led Henry IV (1056–1106) to prostrate himself before the gates of Castile Canossa for three consecutive days seeking papal absolution (1077);2 the struggles in England over the status of Church courts and law, and the subsequent murder of Archbishop Thomas à Becket in Canterbury Cathedral (1170); and the conflicts between Philip the Fair (1285–1314) and Boniface VIII (1294–1303) over ecclesiastical taxation and immunity, which were only resolved when Philip arrested Boniface VIII (1303). Could the contentious popes, bishops, and priests of the Middle Ages really have been subdued and trans- formed so rapidly? No.

  • Utiles Et Necessarias: Early Modern Science and the Society of Jesus
    Utiles et Necessarias: Early Modern Science and the Society of Jesus Sister Mary Sarah Galbraith, O.P. A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Unit of History and Philosophy of Science, Faculty of Science University of Sydney March 2021 Utiles et Necessarias 2 Utiles et Necessarias 3 Utiles et Necessarias: Early Modern Science and the Society of Jesus Sister Mary Sarah Galbraith, O.P. This thesis treats of the contributions made by the Society of Jesus to Early Modern science, amidst the complexities of the post Reformation, post Copernican era. Its focus is the life and work of the Jesuit Christopher Clavius (1538-1612), the architect and founder of a mathematics academy at the Collegio Romano. Using extant correspondence, pamphlet, prefatory dedications and commentaries, I show that Clavius created a strategy to recruit and train Jesuit priests in mathematics to be exported throughout Europe and to remote missionary outposts. As a specially trained corps of priest mathematicians, the Jesuits used the truths of mathematics and the mathematical sciences to draw potential converts to the truths of faith and religious conversion. The approach was initially successful. As the scientific and religious culture shifted in the sixteenth century, however, reliance upon traditional sources of authority, knowledge and belief came under scrutiny. As priests and mathematicians who were invested in both sacred and secular realms, members of the Society struggled to adhere to the tenets of traditional natural philosophy and to promote the new sciences, for the purposes of religious conversion. The approach that substituted the truths of mathematics for the truths of dogmatic faith was intended to engender confidence.

    Devotion & Doubt in the Spanish World 1500–1800 Kate Holohan, PhD Assistant Curator for Academic Engagement Introduction ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ In the sixteenth century, the Christian church in Europe was in crisis. Martin Luther’s critiques of church doctrine and practice led to a schism, and the movement soon known as the Reformation spread from its origins in Germany to the rest of Europe. The ruling Habsburg dynasty of Spain – having recently consolidated power, forced Jewish Spaniards to convert or leave the country, and overthrown the last remaining Iberian Islamic kingdom – in partnership with the Inquisition, ensured that the Reformation did not gain much traction there. The Habsburgs understood themselves to be the most exemplary of Catholic kings and were strong proponents of the Catholic revival known as the Counter-Reformation. As its empire grew to encompass much of the newly “discovered” Americas as well as the Philippines, Spain confronted additional challenges to Catholic supremacy in the form of radically different local religious practices. Reformers had accused the church of the very sin – idolatry bordering on paganism – that it was now keen to root out in Mexico, Peru, and beyond. Yet the diversity of beliefs and practices across the Spanish realms, as well as the assimilation of local beliefs into Catholic practice, belies the church’s façade of impenetrable orthodoxy. Difference and doubt were always present, always subversive, always a threat. At a time in which the visual was, for the largely illiterate masses, the primary means through which to experience the divine, the art and material culture of the early modern Spanish world testifies to these tensions and contradictions.

  • The Rise of Spain
    The Rise of Spain While southern and central Spain were under Arab rule, small, independent Christian states like Aragon*, Navarre*, Catalonia* or Castile* had survived the Muslim expansion in the shelter of the Pyrenees*. When the Christian sense of mission grew at the time of the Crusades*, it also showed effects on these states in the north of Spain. Freeing the Iberian Peninsula from Muslim control came 5 to be seen as a religious deed. Powered by this motivation and supported by struggles among leading Arab families, Christian reconquest (=the Reconquista) turned into a successful movement. Of course, the expulsion of the Arabs left space for new powers, so religious zeal was combined with political motives from the start. A brilliant example of this is Rodrigo Diaz, called “El Cid” (=Arabic for “Lord”). This marvellous knight had played a crucial role in the conquest of the important Arab city of 10 Toledo* in 1095. Soon after, however, he entered the Moors’ service because they granted him the lands he had conquered. In this way, El Cid was able to create his own kingdom of Valencia* on the east coast of Spain. However, soon after his death, Valencia’s military strength crumbled and the kingdom was integrated into Aragon. On the other hand, other newly developing kingdoms of the Reconquista proved to be long lasting. The best example is Portugal. In 1139, Alfonso proclaimed 15 himself king after he had inflicted a decisive victory on the Muslims in the battle of Ourique in the southwest of Spain. Originally, Alfonso had only been Count of Portucale* and a vassal to the king of Castile.

  • Commemorations of Francis Xavier's Heritage on the Fifth
    Juan Pablo Gil-Oslé 492 Commemorations of Francis Xavier’s Heritage on the Fifth Centennial of his Birth, 2006 Juan Pablo Gil-Osl é Arizona State University, Tempe Commemorative activity is by definition social and political, for it involves the coordination of individual and group memories, whose results may appear consensual when they are in fact the product of processes of intense contest, struggle, and, in some instances, annihilation. (John R. Gillis, “Memory and Identity: The History of a Relationship”)1 The celebration of Francis Xavier’s 500 th birthday in 2006 was a premier event in a number of communities around the world, but especially in Navarra, Spain. As the birthplace of the saint, Navarra distributed a considerable wealth of information about him through numerous publications, websites, journal articles, conferences, and commemorative exhibits. 2 Though a significant part of this publishing effort had a nationalistic tone, one might think that the wealth of information it provided is justified, since Francis Xavier was the forerunner of Navarre’s current regional identity; or, at least, that through his participation in the tremendous political turmoil that engulfed the region in early sixteenth century, Saint Francis participated decisively in Navarra’s transformation from an independent kingdom to one of many French and Castilian feudal domains. But the fact is that Francis Xavier was absolutely absent from these political tensions from the moment his father sent him to study in Paris, where he decided against his kin’s will to become a forerunner of the Jesuit Counterreformation. This engagement would definitively remove him from further contact with the former kingdom of Navarra and its vizcaíno -speaking culture.
