THE JESUITS: THEIE CONSTITUTION AND TEACHING. %\\ pstorintl §>hk\, By W. C. CARTWRIGHT, M.P. LONDON: JOHN MUIUtAY, ALBEMARLE STKEET. 1876. The right oj Translation is reterved PRINTED BY WILLIAM CLOWES AND SONS, STAMFORD STREKT AND CHARIKG CROSS. TO EAWDON BROWN, Tl his Volume is Inscribed, IN GRATEFUL RECOLLECTION OF MUCH KINDNESS RECEIVED, AND OF MANY PLEASANT HOURS ENJOYED IN CASA DELLA VIDA, BY THE AUTHOR. 65645 a2 PREFACE. This Volume is in substance a republication of two articles, that appeared in No. 274 and No. 275 of the ' Quarterly Eeview,' with some additions and corrections. The additions are in the first section, which treats of the Constitution of the Society of Jesus. They consist of historical matter calculated to illustrate more amply this branch of the subject. The corrections are in both sections —the most important one, however, being in the second, which relates to points of Doctrine. In reference to these corrections the Author would say a few words of general explanation. On appearance in the 'Quarterly Eeview,' the articles were fortunate enough to attract the attention of a well-known Koman Catholic periodical, the 'Month.' They were subjected to incisive criticisms in a series of papers in its pages, which have been ascribed to a competent master of the matter. These have been issued in a reprint, prefaced by observations, complaining that no notice had been taken by the present writer of the strictures passed on his state- ments, and charging him, on ground of this silence, with want of candour. It is desired here to assure the Critic in the 'Month-' that never has there been any wish to evade ; vi PEEFACE. the acknowledgment due to his valuable criticisms, and that the reason why no earlier response has been made to them is simply that soon after publication it was contemplated to re-issue the articles with emendations. To this re-issue the acknowledgment due to the Critic was postponed, and now here it is freely tendered. Several modifications have been made in the text, which have been in part suggested by ; ' what was stated in the Month ' and the Author is anxious to express his admission of the charge that he allowed himself to fall into a grave blunder in his remarks regarding two kinds of Mental Reservation, all the more blameable as arising from carelessness in the interpretation of a text that is perfectly plain. The Author is specially desirous to make this admission, as on many points he has been unable to concur in the views of the Critic, and has combated these in the additions to his original narrative. The points in question are closely connected with what is most charac- teristic of the Society as an active Institution. The Author is not sanguine enough to fancy that this new matter will ' induce the Critic in the Month ' to abandon his opinions but as he has been accused in print of having shown want of fairness, by wilfully abstaining " to avail himself of the many opportunities open to him of setting himself right with the public," he has deemed it proper to make these preliminary explanations. There is but one word more which it is desired to add. In the account given of the circumstances connected with the doings of the Jesuit Fathers in China, allusion is made to doubts expressed by the writer in the ' Month,' as to the PREFACE. vi 1 correctness of the allegation that certain Memoires cle la Congregation, after having been put in type, have been wholly suppressed in deference to stringent commands from Rome. It should be mentioned that the doubts have been withdrawn in the reprint ; not, indeed, in the text, but in a note affixed as an Appendix. The excuse for not having taken notice of this in the body of this Volume is that the reprint never came under the Author's eye until after this portion of the book was already in type. In conclusion, the Author desires to record, as he has already done elsewhere, his lively thanks to Mr. Rawdon Brown, for the liberality with which he has allowed him to make use of his manuscript collection, some transcripts from which will be found in the Appendix.

  • The “Doctrine of Discovery” and Terra Nullius: a Catholic Response
    1 The “Doctrine of Discovery” and Terra Nullius: A Catholic Response The following text considers and repudiates illegitimate concepts and principles used by Europeans to justify the seizure of land previously held by Indigenous Peoples and often identified by the terms Doctrine of Discovery and terra nullius. An appendix provides an historical overview of the development of these concepts vis-a-vis Catholic teaching and of their repudiation. The presuppositions behind these concepts also undergirded the deeply regrettable policy of the removal of Indigenous children from their families and cultures in order to place them in residential schools. The text includes commitments which are recommended as a better way of walking together with Indigenous Peoples. Preamble The Truth and Reconciliation process of recent years has helped us to recognize anew the historical abuses perpetrated against Indigenous peoples in our land. We have also listened to and been humbled by courageous testimonies detailing abuse, inhuman treatment, and cultural denigration committed through the residential school system. In this brief note, which is an expression of our determination to collaborate with First Nations, Inuit and Métis in moving forward, and also in part a response to the Calls to Action of the Truth and Reconciliation Commission, we would like to reflect in particular on how land was often seized from its Indigenous inhabitants without their consent or any legal justification. The Canadian Conference of Catholic Bishops (CCCB), the Canadian Catholic Aboriginal Council and other Catholic organizations have been reflecting on the concepts of the Doctrine of Discovery and terra nullius for some time (a more detailed historical analysis is included in the attached Appendix).

  • Address of Pope Paul VI to General Congregation 32 (1974)
    Address of Pope Paul VI to General Congregation 32 (1974) Pope Paul VI addressed the delegates to the 32nd General Congregation on December 3, 1974, noting similar “joy and trepidation” to when the last congregation began nearly a decade before. Looking to the assembled Jesuits, the pontiff declares, “there is in you and there is in us the sense of a moment of destiny for your Society.” Indeed, “in this hour of anxious expectation and of intense attention ‘to what the Spirit is saying’ to you and to us,” Paul VI asks the delegates to answer: “Where do you come from?” “Who are you?” “Where are you going?” Esteemed and beloved Fathers of the Society of Jesus, As we receive you today, there is renewed for us the joy and trepidation of May 7, 1965, when the Thirty-first General Congregation of your Society began, and that of November 15 of the following year, at its conclusion. We have great joy because of the outpouring of sincere paternal love which every meeting between the Pope and the sons of St. Ignatius cannot but stir up. This is especially true because we see the witness of Christian apostolate and of fidelity which you give us and in which we rejoice. But there is also trepidation for the reasons of which we shall presently speak to you. The inauguration of the 32nd General Congregation is a special event, and it is usual for us to have such a meeting on an occasion like this; but this meeting has a far wider and more historic significance.

  • The Concept of “Sister Churches” in Catholic-Orthodox Relations Since
    THE CATHOLIC UNIVERSITY OF AMERICA The Concept of “Sister Churches” In Catholic-Orthodox Relations since Vatican II A DISSERTATION Submitted to the Faculty of the School of Theology and Religious Studies Of The Catholic University of America In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements For the Degree Doctor of Philosophy © Copyright All Rights Reserved By Will T. Cohen Washington, D.C. 2010 The Concept of “Sister Churches” In Catholic-Orthodox Relations since Vatican II Will T. Cohen, Ph.D. Director: Paul McPartlan, D.Phil. Closely associated with Catholic-Orthodox rapprochement in the latter half of the 20 th century was the emergence of the expression “sister churches” used in various ways across the confessional division. Patriarch Athenagoras first employed it in this context in a letter in 1962 to Cardinal Bea of the Vatican Secretariat for the Promotion of Christian Unity, and soon it had become standard currency in the bilateral dialogue. Yet today the expression is rarely invoked by Catholic or Orthodox officials in their ecclesial communications. As the Polish Catholic theologian Waclaw Hryniewicz was led to say in 2002, “This term…has now fallen into disgrace.” This dissertation traces the rise and fall of the expression “sister churches” in modern Catholic-Orthodox relations and argues for its rehabilitation as a means by which both Catholic West and Orthodox East may avoid certain ecclesiological imbalances toward which each respectively tends in its separation from the other. Catholics who oppose saying that the Catholic Church and the Orthodox Church are sisters, or that the church of Rome is one among several patriarchal sister churches, generally fear that if either of those things were true, the unicity of the Church would be compromised and the Roman primacy rendered ineffective.

  • History of the French Notarial System
    HISTORY OF THE FRENCH NOTARIAL SYSTEM. In France every attempt to transfer any right or title to real property brings the parties into contact with a public function- ary who has no counterpart in the federal or state officialdom of this country. His title is "NOTARY." He has a professional and social standing all his own. His dignity is derived from his appointment by the President of the French Republic; his in- tegrity is assured by ample bond given for the faithful perform- ance of his duties; and the respect and esteem of his fellow- citizens arise from the fact that he plays an important role in almost every phase of the life of individuals from the cradle to the grave. To conceive even a most general idea of his office by using parallels in our own institutions one must group all or some part of the duties and functions of the old-time family lawyer, the former conveyancer or scribe whose vocation was that of draw- ing up legal instruments and passing upon titles to real property before the days of title and trust companies, recorders or regis- trars of deeds and mortgages, registrars of wills, or surrogates, notaries public, masters in chancery, commissioners of deeds, in- vestment agents, collectors of rents and other income, masters in partition, arbitrators, guardians, administrators, custodians of vital statistics, depositaries of public records, court clerks and other officials connected with the daily routine of men's affairs too numerous to be detailed here. The office of Notary is older than any other now connected with administration or jurisprudence in France.

Washington, dc: Georgetown University Press, 2016. Pp. viii + 299. Pb, $32.95. This volume of essays is the outcome of a three-year project hosted by the Berkley Center for Religion, Peace, and World Affairs at Georgetown University which involved workshops held in Washington, Oxford, and Florence and cul- minated in a conference held in Rome (December 2014). The central question addressed by the participants was whether or not the Jesuit “way of proceeding […] hold[s] lessons for an increasingly multipolar and interconnected world” (vii). Although no fewer than seven out of the thirteen chapters were authored by Jesuits, the presence amongst them of such distinguished scholars as John O’Malley, M. Antoni Üçerler, Daniel Madigan, David Hollenbach, and Francis Clooney as well as of significant historians of the Society such as Aliocha Mal- davsky, John McGreevy, and Sabina Pavone together with that of the leading sociologist of religion, José Casanova, ensure that the outcome is more than the sum of its parts. Banchoff and Casanova make it clear at the outset: “We aim not to offer a global history of the Jesuits or a linear narrative of globaliza- tion but instead to examine the Jesuits through the prism of globalization and globalization through the prism of the Jesuits” (2). Accordingly, the volume is divided into two, more or less equal sections: “Historical Perspectives” and “Contemporary Challenges.” In his sparklingly incisive account of the first Jesuit encounters with Japan and China, M.
