Notitiæ in His Place, and Crowned at Rome on the 16Th of January Fol- Lowing retirement that he might prepare himself for Christmas, having committed the care of the church to three cardinals. This again was an occasion of fresh scruples, when he reflected that a pastor is bound himself to a personal attend- ance on the duties of his charge. These fears of conscience, the weight of his dignity, which he felt every day more and more insupportable, and the desire of enjoying himself in solitude, moved him at length to deliberate whether he might not resign his dignity. He consulted Cardinal Benedict Cajetan, a person the best skilled in the canon law, and others who agreed in their advice, that it was in the power of a pope to abdicate. When this became public, many vigorously opposed the motion; but no solicitations or motives could make the holy man alter his resolution. Wherefore, some days after he held at Naples a consistory of the cardinals, at which the King of Naples and many others were present: be- fore them he read the solemn act of his abdication, then laid aside his pontifical robes and ornaments, put on his religious habit, came down from his throne, and cast himself at the feet of the assembly, begging pardon for his faults, and exhorting the cardinals to repair them in the best manner they were able, by choosing a worthy successor to St. Peter.

  • Numerology and Moral Alchemy in Philippe De Mézières’ Work
    A RELIGION IN ITS TIME: NUMEROLOGY AND MORAL ALCHEMY IN PHILIPPE DE MÉZIÈRES’ WORK Joël Blanchard In his cell at the Celestines’ monastery, the Vieil Pélerin [The Old Pilgrim], also known as Ardant Désir [Burning Desire], has a dream. A lady of light, Divine Providence, attended by her ladies-in-waiting, appears to him to announce to him nothing less than the necessary reform of Christianity and of the kingdom of France. The wall that men have erected through their sins between themselves and God must be brought down. The biblical parable of the talents urges that those men who have the ability, and first among them the Vieil Pélerin, make the most of these talents on behalf of the renascence of the kingdom of God and in the service of the kingdom of France. Thus will one be able to help France’s new sovereign, the “blanc faucon aux bec et aux pattes dorés” [the golden-billed and golden-legged white falcon], Charles VI, in his mission. Yet, prior to everything, an inquiry has to be carried out and an inventory made in every part of the Christian world, so the necessary remedies could be determined. Only then will the “belle monnoie de la sainte arquemie” [the beautiful coinage of holy alchemy], moral alchemy being meant here, be able to circulate in the whole world and the philosopher’s stone be discovered.1 Le songe du vieil pelerin is as much an initiatory tale as a work deal- ing with politics (and political morality), history and geography, which plunges us right into the tragic end of the Middle Ages.

  • St. Celestine Feast: May 19
    St. Celestine Feast: May 19 When the father of this Italian saint died, his good mother brought up her twelve children well, even though they were very poor. "Oh, if I could only have the joy of seeing one of you become a saint!" she use to say. Once when she asked as usual, "which one of you is going to become a saint?" little Peter (who was to become Pope Celestine) answered with all his heart, "Me, mama! I'll become a saint!" And he did. When he was twenty, Peter became a hermit and spent his days praying and reading the Holy Bible. If he was not praying or reading, he would copy books or do some hard work so that the devil would not find him doing nothing, and tempt him. Because other hermits kept coming to him and begging him to guide them, he started a new Order. Peter was an old monk, eighty-four years of age when he was made Pope. It came about in a very unusual way. For two years, there had been no Pope, because the Cardinals could not decide whom to choose. St. Peter sent them a message to decide quickly, for God was not pleased at the long delay. Then and there, they chose the holy old hermit himself! Poor Peter wept when he heard the news, but he sorrowfully accepted and took the name Celestine V. He was Pope only about five months. Because he was so humble and simple, everyone took advantage of him. He could not say "no" to anyone, and soon matters were in great confusion.

  • Franciscan Prophets and the Inquisition (1226–1326)
    religions Article Franciscan Prophets and the Inquisition (1226–1326) C. Colt Anderson Graduate School of Religion and Religious Education, Fordham University, 441 East Fordham Rd, Bronx, NY 10458, USA; [email protected] Received: 20 January 2018; Accepted: 15 March 2018; Published: 3 April 2018 Abstract: This paper examines how Franciscan apologetics and polemics over the status of St. Francis and the Rule of 1223 created a climate of inquisitorial suspicion over prophecy and prophetic claims. Keywords: Franciscans; inquisition; prophecy; heresy; miracles; Francis of Assisi; Thomas of Celano; Bonaventure; Peter Olivi; apocalypticism The idea that claims to prophecy presented an open invitation for inquisitorial investigation and condemnation in the Middle Ages seems obvious. Augustine had established a tradition that once the revelation in Christ had been made manifest, there was no need for prophecy to reveal the unfolding of salvation history in the future. Moreover, he discouraged people from reading the Apocalypse as a prophecy.1 Robert Lerner has argued that this tradition is why very few people claimed the gift of prophecy and instead relied on the idea of an inspired reading of scripture to avoid charges of heresy.2 Lerner distinguished claims to being a prophet from being identified as a prophet by others, such as the way Joachim of Fiore was identified as a prophet. The earliest sources Lerner pointed to as evidence of this general Augustinian suspicion of prophecy, however, are from an anti-Franciscan text written in 1310 and a polemic against the Revelations of St. Bridget in 1389.3 Yet when one looks at the role prophecy played in the Franciscan Order from the time of the founder’s death to the condemnation of Peter Olivi’s Lectura super Apocalypsim in 1326, it becomes clear the Franciscans successfully promoted prophetic claims for their founder and their order prior to 1274.

  • No. 271 Robert LJ Shaw, the Celestine Monks
    H-France Review Volume 19 (2019) Page 1 H-France Review Vol. 19 (December 2019), No. 271 Robert L. J. Shaw, The Celestine Monks of France, c. 1350-1450. Observant Reform in an Age of Schism, Council, and War. Amsterdam: Amsterdam University Press, 2018. 294 pp. Maps, tables, figures, notes, and index. $106.00 U.S. (hb). ISBN 978-9462986787. Review by James D. Mixson, University of Alabama. Sometime around 1240, a Benedictine monk named Peter, later known as Peter of Morrone, set out from his community of Santa Maria di Faifoli near Benevento to live as a hermit in the mountains of Abruzzo. His rigorous asceticism attracted a crowd of followers, and their early communities of hermits were eventually approved as a congregation within the Order of St. Benedict. The pious hermit Peter was himself then elected Pope as Celestine V in 1294, but held office only briefly before voluntarily abdicating--for centuries, the last pope to have done so until the resignation of Benedict XVI in 2013. Peter was in turn canonized in 1313, and his followers continued to imitate his way of life. The Celestines, as these Benedictine monks came to be called, soon grew to some 35 houses by 1300 and some one hundred a century later, first across Italy, and then in France. The historiography of religious life and its orders, as Kaspar Elm noted long ago, remains in some ways at the mercy of the orders’ own successes. Cluniacs, Cistercians, Franciscans, Dominicans, and other well-established orders can boast of rich historiographies reaching back to the Middle Ages, their modern scholarship, in many instances, still supported by longstanding traditions of research, edition, and publication.

Noah’s Ark or the Barque of St. Peter represent the community of the saved and redeemed. However, since Plato at least, the ship also symbolizes the Greek polis and later the Roman Empire. From the fourth century ‒ the Constantinian era ‒ on, these traditions merged. Christianity was made the state religion. Over the course of a millennium, church and state united in a religiously homogeneous, yet not always harmonious, Corpus Christianum. In the sixteenth century, the Reformation led to disenchantment with the sacred character of both church and state as mediators indispensible for religious and secular salvation.

  • Why Would an Account of the Daily Life of Monks and Their
    “Why would an account of the daily life of monks and their dynamic, inspiring, also controversial, Abbot capture the religious imagination and become one of the most popular books of seventeenth-century France? Thanks to David Bell’s excellent translation and notes we are now able to find out for ourselves. This riveting account of a fascinating world unknown to most of us will delight monastic scholars, historians, and anyone interested in the origins of Trappist life and thought.

  • Table of the Prophecy of the Popes
    Table of the Prophecy of the Popes The Prophecy of the Popes is presented at first in Latin, then in English (next pages). Explanations of the structure of the table Purplish section: the Avignon Papacy (1309-1378). Greenish section: the Great Occidental Schism (1378-1417),with a paler extension to include the mottos 51 to 54. Pale blue section: the Papacy of the XXth century: «An entire epoch!» (mottos 103 to 107). Red pale section: the Church of John, renewal of the Church of Peter. The last eight mottos (104 to 111) cover the period named: «End of the Times», «Day of Yahweh», «Apocalypse» (1917-2033). According to Raoul Auclair, this period opens officially on 2 November 1917. Numbers highlighted in blue: the mottos quoted or commented by Raoul Auclair in his various writings. Numbers highlighted in purple: besides the previous mottos, the present study lingers over some other mottos not quoted by Raoul. Numbers followed by an asterisk: the mottos corresponding to an antipope. Terms underlined in red: in reference to the astral symbolism. Terms underlined by a double wavy line: in reference to the naval symbolism. Dates in brackets are relative to the reign (for the men), to the birth and to the death (for the women). The end of the reign corresponds generally to the death, safe in the cases of Saint Celestine V, Gregory XII and Benedictus XVI (who resigned). Nationalities (indicated by means of the modern flags) (Germany) (Belgium) (Netherlands) (England) (Spain) (Poland) (Argentina) (France) (Portugal) (Canada) (Italy) The absence of flag indicates that the person belongs to the Italian peninsula.
