Pope St. Pius V: Pope of the Rosary Pope St Did you know . Pope St. Pius V: Pope of the Rosary Pope St. Pius V is one of the foremost leaders of the Catholic Reformation. He was born Antonio Ghislieri in Bosco, Italy, to a poor family; he worked as a shepherd until the age of fourteen when he joined the Dominicans, and was ordained in 1528. He studied at Bologna and Genoa, and then taught theology and philosophy for sixteen years. He was known for his long hours of prayer and fasting, and his holy speech. Due to his reputation for holiness and his great intelligence, he rose to a number of prominent positions in the Church, including Inquisitor and bishop. When Pope Pius IV died in 1565, he was unanimously elected Pope and took the name Pope Pius V. As pope, Pius was a great reformer and saw as his main objective the full implementation of the decrees of the Council of Trent. He also supported the foreign missions and worked for the reform of the clergy. He published the Roman Catechism, the revised Roman Breviary, and the Roman Missal; he also declared Thomas Aquinas a Doctor of the Church, commanded a new edition of the works of Thomas Aquinas, and created a commission to revise the Vulgate. Pope Pius V was especially known for his devotion to the Blessed Virgin Mary and for being a great promoter of the Holy Rosary. He was given the title of “The Pope of the Rosary” for issuing a papal bull, Consueverunt Romani Pontifices, in which he secured the uniformity of the Holy Rosary for recitation throughout the Catholic Church and for establishing the feast of Our Lady of the Holy Rosary. At the time it was called Feast Day of Our Lady of Victory, in thanksgiving for the victory of the Christian fleet over the Ottoman Turks at the Battle of Lepanto which occurred on October 7, 1571. Pope Clement beatified him on May 1, 1672, and Pope Clement XI canonized him on May 22, 1712. His Feast Day is April 30. On an interesting note, during his first day as Holy Father, Pope Francis prayed at the tomb of the great reformer Pope Pius V, which resides at St. Mary Major Basilica in Rome. Judy Pearson .

Historians rarely offer more than a brief biography and often neglect to mention at all his key role in the Great Schism. Yet, the very absence ofPope Benoit XIU from most historical narratives of medieval history itself highlights the active role that historians play in determining what gets recorded. In some cases, the choices that people make in determining what does, and what does not, get included in historical accounts reveals as much about the motivations and intentions of the people recording that past as it does about their subjects. This essay studies one example of this problem, in this case Europeans during the Reformation era who self-consciously manipulated sources from medieval history to promote their own agendas. We can see this in the sixteenth-century translation ofa treatise written by the medieval theologian Nicholas de Clamanges (1363-1437. Clamanges was a university professor and served as Benoit XIII's secretary during the Great Schism in Avignon, France. The treatise, entitled La Traite de fa Ruine de f'Eglise, was written in Latin in 1398 and was first distributed after Clamanges' death in 1437.

The essence of it was established by Jesus Christ, and no one, not even a Pope, can change what was thus divinely established. 2. Though a Pope cannot change the substance of the Mass, he can change the accidents, or non-essentials, of the Mass a. This is how the Mass developed organically through the centuries. b. True Popes have also made incidental changes to the Mass, e.g. the Holy Week changes of Pope Pius XII in 1955. 3. Quo Primum was the strongest Papal statement that no one, not even a Cardinal, could authorize changes in the Mass.

  • The Unigenitus of Clement XI
    Theological Studies 49 (1988) THE UNIGÉNITOS OF CLEMENT XI: A FRESH LOOK AT THE ISSUES JACQUES M. GRES-GAYER The Catholic University of America HERE is an enigma about Unigenitus, the ill-fated bull issued by Pope TClement XI (1713) against the resurgence of Jansenism. If the Jansenist movement in general has continued to attract scholars, whose recent contributions are changing perspectives,1 the constitution that condemned 101 "Jansenist propositions" extracted from the Réflexions morales was until recently left scrupulously untouched. It seemed taken for granted as an inevitable pivot—either a terminus ad quern, the logical conclusion of a century of theological and political disputes, or a terminus a quo, the origin of a movement of rebellion that eventually developed into a revolution.2 In other words, it was considered more a catalyst or an excuse for a latent social and political conflict than its real cause; hence the interest manifested in its prolegomena or later development rather than in the document itself. It was the document itself, however, the solemn exercise of the papal magisterium, that stimulated what was then perceived as the major crisis in Catholic history. The animosities, the political schemes, and the negotiations which accompanied its preparation, the uproar, the renewed negotiations, and the conflicts which followed its publication, suggest that there was more to this document than a collection of 101 condemned extracts from a spiritual book. But what was Unigenitus all about? In what appears to be a healthy reaction to a quasi-exclusive emphasis on the social and political elements of the conflicts surrounding the bull, major scholars of Jansenism have lately advocated an approach that 1 See the review article by William H.

  • Daily Saints - 17 February
    Daily Saints - 17 February Feast of Seven Founders of the Servite Order Venerated in: Roman Catholic Church, Beatified: 1 December 1717 by Clement XI, Canonized: 15 January 1888 by Pope Leo XIII Named the fifth mendicant order by Pope Martin V, it was founded in 1233 by • Saint Alexis Falconieri • Saint Bartholomew degli Amidei • Saint Benedict dell'Antella • Saint Buonfiglio Monaldi • Saint Gherardino Sostegni • Saint Hugh dei Lippi-Uguccioni • Saint John Buonagiunta Monetti These seven men were born in Florence, Italy, and led lives as hermits on Monte Scenario. They had a special devotion to the Blessed Virgin Mary. The Servite Order is one of the five original Catholic mendicant orders. Its objectives are the sanctification of its members, preaching the Gospel, and the propagation of devotion to the Mother of God, with special reference to her sorrows. The members of the Order use O.S.M. (Ordo Servorum Beatae Mariae Virginis) as their post-nominal letters. The male members are known as Servite Friars or Servants of Mary. The Order of Servants of Mary (The Servites) religious family includes friars (priests and brothers), contemplative nuns, a congregation of active religious sisters, and lay groups. On Friday, April 13, 1240, the hermits received a vision of Our Lady. She held in her hand a black habit, and a nearby angel bore a scroll reading "Servants of Mary." Mary told them: "You will found a new order, and you will be my witnesses throughout the world. This is your name: Servants of Mary. This is your rule: that of Saint Augustine.

    379 THE CATHOLIC HENRI IV AND THE PAPACY 1593-1610 THESIS Presented to the Graduate Council of the North Texas State University in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements For the Degree of I MASTER OF ARTS By William Jackson Fling, III, B. A. Denton, Texas August, 1977 I/7 Fling, William J., III, The Catholic Henri IV and the Papacy 1593-1610. Master of Arts (History), August, 1977, 130 pp., bibliography, 40 titles. This study explores Franco-Papal relations, and their effect on the French Church and State, from Henri IV's conver- sion to Roman Catholicism in 1593 until his death in 1610. Because Henri IV's primary concern, even in matters involving the Papacy or the Gallican Church, was to protect his kingdom from Habsburg encroachment, he was willing either to abandon his Protestant allies abroad, or to adopt reform measures, such as the decrees of the Council of Trent, that might weaken his own authority or disturb the peace of his kingdom. This caused repeated conflicts with the Counter-Reformation Popes Clement VIII and Paul V, to whom the primary enemy was always the infidel and the heretic. Nevertheless both sides realized that they needed each other to maintain their independence of Spain. TABLE OF CONTENTS Page INTRODUCTION ................ .*................. 1 Chapter I.

  • 005-Santa Susanna
    (005/11) Santa Susanna Santa Susanna is an 15th century monastic and titular church. It is on the Piazza San Bernardo, on the Via XX Settembre just north-west of the Piazza della Repubblica and its metro station in the rione Trevi. The dedication is to St Susanna, and the full official title is Santa Susanna alle Terme di Diocleziano. (1) History A church at Santa Susanna commemorates the place where, according to St. Jerome, a young Christian woman was martyred for refusing to worship Rome's pagan gods. Around the year 290 Susanna was residing with her father, Christian presbyter Gabinus, right next door to her saintly uncle Pope Caius (283-296), and in the shadows of the Emperor Diocletian's (284-305) immense baths. After refusing to break a vow of virginity to marry her insistent suitor Maximianus Galerius (none other than the Emperor's adopted son and heir), Susanna also balked at offering a pagan sacrifice, and was beheaded in her own home. The church of Santa Susanna is one of the oldest titles of Rome. The first Christian place of worship was built here in the 4th century. It was probably the titulus of Pope Caius (283-296). The early Christian church was built on the remains of three Roman villas, and was located immediately outside the fence of the Baths of Diocletian and close to the Servian walls. (8) First church By tradition, the church was built in 330, and named San Caio after the owner of the first chapel. In 590, the church was rededicated to St Susan because of her growing popularity.

  • Pope Francis Blesses Model of Peter the Apostle in Mei S Sen Porcelain
    PRESS RELEASE POPE FRANCIS BLESSES MODEL OF PETER THE APOSTLE IN MEI S SEN PORCELAIN FIGURINE PRESENTED I N VATICAN WITH FOND A- ZIONE PRO MUSICA E A R T E S A C R A Meissen/Rome, 31 January 2018. The Meissen Manufactory was able to present the Holy Father, Pope Francis, with a model of Peter the Apostle in Meissen porcelain in the Vatican on 24 January as a token of its particular esteem for sacred art. Meissen’s Chief Executive Officer Georg Nussdor- fer handed the figurine over during a private meeting. Pope Francis was visibly moved as he accep- ted the Apostle Peter figurine and blessed it. It will now be prominently displayed in the papal chambers. “Handing the Holy Father such a momentous work of religious art from the Manufacto- ry was a great honour for Meissen and for me personally too”, Mr Nussdorfer enthused after- wards. “His blessing serves as unique affirmation of our creative endeavours.” The presentation was made in the context of a choral concert supported by Fondazione pro Musi- ca e Arte Sacra, with whom Meissen has been working since 2017. The Foundation promotes ecumenical music projects involving the papal choir Cappella Musicale Pontificia “Sistina” amongst other things. An invitation to this year’s annually held communal concert had been extended to the Stadtsingechor from the eastern German city of Halle an der Saale, one of the most celebrated child and youth choirs in Europe. Meissen was likewise invited to the event by the Foundation, thus further deepening the cooperative bonds between the two.
