  • The Cult of St. Philomena in Nineteenth Century France: Art and Ideology
    THE CULT OF ST. PHILOMENA IN NINETEENTH CENTURY FRANCE: ART AND IDEOLOGY NANCY DAVENPORT University of the Arts phenomenal scale of the widespread devotion, born of popular Thepiety and nurtured by French nineteenth century Ultramontane ideol- ogy, to an Early Christian martyr named Philomena is incontrovertible. The historical foundation for this devotion, the vita sancta, of a young Greek Christian who had refused the advances of the Emperor Diocletian in Rome and was, as a result, martyred in "the most severe and tragic manner" on his orders, is debatable.' Nonetheless, irrespective of fact or fiction or perhaps because of their indeterminacy, the cult of Philomena, a name often remarked on as meaning Bringer of Light, provides a model, similar to those at Lourdes and La Salette in the same period, of the way that unquestion- ing faith, when supported by a political agenda, could inspire an entire nation in the post-Enlightenment period. Wrote her devoted biographer, Jean Darche, early in this century, "Le monde est aveugle, est ignorant parce qu'il est orgueilleux, sensuel, avare et indifferent, et Philomene lui donne 1'exemple de la plus profonde humilite, de la plus parfaite mortification, du plus entier detachement, du plus grand zele pour la gloire de Dieu In the strictest sense of the standard vita sancta, what was singular about Philomena? To begin with, while she was similar to Bernadette of Lourdes or Therese of Lisieux in being young, female, innocent, and unworldly - in every respect a pure vessel for the transmission of heavenly grace - the latter two were known to be persons of flesh and blood locat- ed in time and space, whereas the 'person' Philomena was simply a con- struction : a generic Early Christian Virgin Martyr, formulated from the dreams of a pious nineteenth century Sicilian tertiary, Suor Maria Luisa di Gesu.
