The Honorable James Bowdoin, only son of the emi- nent statesman and patriot, Governor James Bowdoin of Massachusetts, returned to this country in 1809 from Europe, where he had been engaged in important diplomatic missions for the United States government. His death occurred in 1811. He bequeathed to the College, besides his library and other valuable property, his collection of paintings, seventy in number, brought together chiefly in Europe, and two portfolios of drawings. The drawings were received by Mr. John Abbot, the agent of the College, December 3, 1811, along with the library, of which they were reckoned a part.

  • Matthew 20:17-28 Then the Mother of James and John Came with Her
    Matthew 20:17-28 Then the mother of James and John came with her sons to make a request of Jesus, and bowed low; and he said to her, ‘What is it you want?’ She said to him, ‘Promise that these two sons of mine may sit one at your right hand and the other at your left in your kingdom.’ ‘You do not know what you are asking’ Jesus answered. ‘Can you drink the cup that I am going to drink?’ They replied, ‘We can.’ ‘Very well,’ he said ‘you shall drink my cup, but as for seats at my right hand and my left, these are not mine to grant; they belong to those to whom they have been allotted by my Father.’ When the other ten heard this, they were indignant with the two brothers. You may be tempted to accuse James and John of vain ambition, especially since the other Apostles were indignant, but I believe, with St. John Henry Cardinal Newman that this was not vain ambition, rather Noble Ambition, Magnanimity, the virtue to desire and do great things for the love of God and souls. 2 They asked to reign with Christ. He in answer told them: • Not that they were guaranteed of it • But that they must venture for it, strive after it St Jerome says, “Jesus said not, ‘You shall not sit there,’ that He might not discourage the two brothers; neither did He say, ‘You shall sit there,’ that He might not stir the others to anger; but by holding up the prize before all, He might encourage all to strive for Him.

  • Emma Chookaszian the Image of the Virgin of Mercy in the Armenian Art
    Emma Chookaszian The Image of the Virgin of Mercy in the Armenian Art of 13th century in Comparison with the Western Icons The Origins of This Iconography The western influence on the culture and art was getting stronger in Armenian Kingdom of Cilicia in the 13th c., which had a large sea-shore, oriented towards Europe and was playing an important role in the Mediterranean trade. The influence was strengthening also in the Armenian Church and the Armenian kings were becoming more and more oriented towards Roman Church. The majority of the Armenian manuscript books from the end of the 13th and the beginning of the 14th c. reveal a specific so-called “Italo-Byzantine” style. This text comments on two full-page miniatures from these manuscripts representing the Virgin of Mercy with the members of the royal families kneeling in front of her. One depicts Marshal Oshin, his two elder sons, Constatin and Hethoum, kneeling before Madonna, and a bishop. Madonna is holding her cloak over the royal family’s members as a sign of patronage and protection. Great Armenian scholar Sirarpie Der Nersessian drew attention to the intriguing similarities between this Armenian miniature and a small painting by Duccio di Boninsegna. Duccio’s work, Madonna of the Franciscans is datee in 1280 while the Armenian miniature dates in 1274. Der Nersessian believed that the Franciscans introduced to a Cilician artist the compositional type (Madonna della Misericordia/ Virgin of Mercy) which later enjoyed great success in the West. Another miniature from the same period (ca. 1270) also represents Virgin of Mercy and belongs to the Prince Vasak Gospel which is now kept in Armenian Patriarchate of Jerusalem.

The model is reproduced from its two stellar occultation observations and six lightcurves between 1969 and 2011. The first stellar occultation was the occultation of TYC 234500183 on 1996 De- cember 17 observed from 13 sites in the USA. An elliptical cross section of (344.6 ± 9.6 km) × (306.2 ± 9.1 km), for position angle P = 73.4 ± 12.5˚ was fitted. The lightcurve around the occulta- tion shows that the peak-to-peak amplitude was 0.04 mag. and the occultation phase was just be- fore the minimum.

  • The Castle and the Virgin in Medieval
    I 1+ M. Vox THE CASTLE AND THE VIRGIN IN MEDIEVAL AND EARLY RENAISSANCE DRAMA John H. Meagher III A Dissertation Submitted to the Graduate School of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY December, 1976 Approved by Doctoral Committee BOWLING GREEN UN1V. LIBRARY 13 © 1977 JOHN HENRY MEAGHER III ALL RIGHTS RESERVED 11 ABSTRACT This study examined architectural metaphor and setting in civic pageantry, religious processions, and selected re­ ligious plays of the middle ages and renaissance. A review of critical works revealed the use of an architectural setting and metaphor in classical Greek literature that continued in Roman and medieval literature. Related examples were the Palace of Venus, the House of Fortune, and the temple or castle of the Virgin. The study then explained the devotion to the Virgin Mother in the middle ages and renaissance. The study showed that two doctrines, the Immaculate Conception and the Assumption of Mary, were illustrated in art, literature, and drama, show­ ing Mary as an active interceding figure. In civic pageantry from 1377 to 1556, the study found that the architectural metaphor and setting was symbolic of a heaven or structure which housed virgins personifying virtues, symbolically protective of royal genealogy. Pro­ tection of the royal line was associated with Mary, because she was a link in the royal line from David and Solomon to Jesus. As architecture was symbolic in civic pageantry of a protective place for the royal line, so architecture in religious drama was symbolic of, or associated with the Virgin Mother.

  • Pastoral Plan for Worship St. Joan of Arc Church
    Second Sunday of Advent December 6, 2020 PASTORAL PLAN FOR WORSHIP ST. JOAN OF ARC CHURCH The dispensation from the obligation to attend Sunday Mass, issued by Bishop da Cunha, remains in effect until further notice. Those who are most vulnerable and at a greater risk due to age, preexisting health conditions, or in close proximity to vulnerable people are encouraged to remain home at this time. If you or a close loved one show symptoms of illness, please refrain from coming to church.

During the week Mass is celebrated Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Friday at 8:00am. Per state regulations, gatherings cannot exceed 40% of a house of worship’s occupancy capacity. Taking into account social distancing of 6 feet between people or households, means only approximately 3 people in every other pew. All worshippers enter the church through the Main Entrance.

Once we reach our occupancy limit, we will not be able to admit others. Charity, cooperation and understanding are asked of all. Everyone entering the church is required to wear a mask or other face covering. Please provide your own masks. While there is hand sanitizer available in the foyer, please consider providing your own, if you can, as supply is limited.

It explores the complex manner in which these central Italian cities both emulated and rejected the political and cultural hegemony of Rome through the ideological and performative reinvention of its cult icons. In the twelfth century the powerful urban center of Tivoli adopted Rome’s grandest annual public event, the nocturnal Assumption procession of August 14-15, and transformed it into a potent civic expression that incorporated all sectors of the social fabric. Tivoli’s cult of the Trittico del Salvatore and the Inchinata procession in which the icon of the enthroned Christ was carried at the feast of the Assumption and made to perform in symbolic liturgical ceremonies were both modeled on Roman, papal exemplars.
