  • Pope Francis Visit to Geneva, Update the French Catholic Magazine La
    Pope Francis Visit to Geneva, update The French Catholic magazine La Croix International published an interview of a World Council of Churches (WCC) leader on May 31, to update their readers on Pope Francis' June 21 visit. Pastor Martin Robra, co-secretary of the mixed working group between the World Council of Churches and the Catholic Church, "credits Pope Francis with ushering in a new springtime for ecumenism." This working group, set up in 1965, is the answer to the continually discussed challenge of the Catholic Church formally joining the WCC. One of the main problems of Catholic membership is the size of the Catholic Church. It outnumbers all the other 348 members of the World Council of Churches. This is one of the several reasons the Catholic Church has not formally joined. However, there is membership by Catholics on the Faith and Order Commission, and the Mission and Evangelism Commission. The Catholic Church is considered an "Observer" in the entire structure of the WCC. Robra also contrasted the upcoming visit of Pope Francis, with previous visits to the WCC headquarters in Geneva by Popes Paul VI and John Paul II. When they visited Geneva, they did not concentrate so much on going to the WCC headquarters. And he said "Pope Francis comes first of all as head of the Catholic Church. ..We hope that together we can continue a pilgrimage of justice and peace to those at the margins of societies, those yearning for justice and peace in this violence-stricken world and its unjust political and economic relationships." A summary of the entire interview can be found on the La Croix International website, English version.

  • Catholicism and European Politics: Introducing Contemporary Dynamics
    religions Editorial Catholicism and European Politics: Introducing Contemporary Dynamics Michael Daniel Driessen Department of Political Science and International Affairs, John Cabot University, 00165 Rome, Italy; [email protected] 1. Introduction Recent research on political Catholicism in Europe has sought to theorize the ways in which Catholic politics, including Catholic political parties, political ideals, and political entrepreneurs, have survived and navigated in a post-secular political environment. Many of these studies have articulated the complex ways in which Catholicism has adjusted and transformed in late modernity, as both an institution and a living tradition, in ways which have opened up unexpected avenues for its continuing influence on political practices and ideas, rather than disappearing from the political landscape altogether, as much Citation: Driessen, Michael Daniel. previous research on religion and modernization had expected.

  • Luft a New Commotion
    To members of the Politics and Protest Workshop, Attached is the second chapter of my dissertation. The project itself examines how French bishops during the Holocaust in France deviated from their support for Vichy to help save Jews despite the high personal and institutional costs associated with defection (http://www.alizaluft.com/dissertation.php). Chapter one explains how bishops decided to endorse the Vichy regime's anti-Semitic legislation in the first place. Chapter two, which you will read, explains how the resulting alignment between political and religious authorities in France helped legitimize the Vichy regime & its policy of "National Revolution" in a time when such legitimacy was not guaranteed. Significantly, I am attempting in this chapter to develop a Bourdieusian argument about political authority and how political legitimacy is obtained, and I would be especially grateful for your feedback on this effort. Finally, the chapter is incomplete -- I have not yet written the conclusion and am still working through some theoretical ideas, but this is why I look forward to your comments. Thank you so much!

  • The Catholic Press in France on the Eve of the Dreyfus Affair, 1895-1897
    The Catholic Press in France on the Eve of the Dreyfus Affair, 1895-1897 Master’s Thesis Presented to the Comparative History Department Brandeis University Alice Kelikian, Advisor In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Master of Arts By Steven Pieragastini May, 2009 i Copyright by Steven Pieragastini 2009 ii Abstract The Catholic Press in France on the Eve of the Dreyfus Affair, 1895-1897 A thesis presented to the Comparative History Department Graduate School of Arts and Sciences Brandeis University Waltham, Massachusetts By Steven Pieragastini The Assumptionist Order, founded in 1845-46 by Emmanuel d’Alzon, and its publishing house La Maison de la Bonne Presse, effectively spread an idiosyncratic gospel of traditionalism in the first decades of the French Third Republic. This was accomplished primarily through its national daily newspaper La Croix, which became a leading voice in the anti-Dreyfusard campaign during the Dreyfus Affair. This investigation raises questions about the nature of French Catholicism as a whole at the end of the nineteenth century and its relationship to antisemitism. A number of excellent studies have looked at the Catholic press’s role at the height of the Affair. Few have looked closely at the “lull” period between Dreyfus’s public degradation and the trials of Ferdinand Walsin Esterhazy and Émile Zola. The central focus of my research has been on the nature of the Catholic press during these years of relative silence. This paper will show that while events and predispositions fed off of each other, the ground had already been prepared at La Bonne Presse for a rancorous assertion of Catholic nationalism and antisemitism before 1898.

Further reproduction prohibited without permission. MANUAL LABOR: THE TWELFTH-CENTURY CISTERCIAN IDEAL Dennis R. Overman, M.A. Western Michigan University, 1984 Throughout the history of western monasticism three principal occupations were repeatedly emphasized for the monk: prayer, lectio divina (spiritual reading/meditation), and manual labor. Periodically, cultural mindsets, social structure, or even geography have produced a variation in the practice of these occupations, resulting in the dominance of one or the other, or even the disappearance of one altogether. The emergence of the Cistercian Order at the end of the eleventh century was characterized by a spirit of simplicity and austerity with a renewed emphasis on manual labor which had been a neglected element in the monastic regime in the period just prior to the Cistercians.

That is one of their chief characteristics, and cannot be sufficiently emphasised. It is none the less easy to appreciate the value of a Com­ mentary on this vast corpus of rules and regulations. The perusal or study of the Conventions will be increasingly valuable in proportion as the underlying reasons for their elaboration are made known. They :must, if their full meaning is to be appreciated, be considered in connection with the manifold efforts to ameliorate the condition of war victims, of which they are the embodiment. They must be judged in the light of the experience of the world .wars, and of the effects on the previous Conventions of the " ordeal by fire ".
