Luke Wadding Luke Wadding Luke Wadding, O.F.M. (16 October 1588 – 18 November 1657), was an Irish Franciscan friar and historian. Contents Life Early life Franciscan friar Death Legacy Works See also Oil painting of Luke Wadding by References and sources Carlo Maratta held in the National Referred works Gallery of Ireland External links Life Early life Wadding was born on 16 October 1588 in Waterford to Walter Wadding of Waterford, a wealthy merchant,[1] and his wife, Anastasia Lombard (sister of Peter Lombard, Archbishop of Armagh and Primate of Ireland).[1] Educated at the school of Mrs. Jane Barden in Waterford and of Peter White in Kilkenny, in 1604 he went to study in Lisbon and at the University of Coimbra.[2] Franciscan friar After completing his university studies, Wadding became a Franciscan friar in 1607, and spent his novitiate at Matosinhos, Portugal. He was ordained priest in 1613 by João Manuel, Bishop of Viseu, and in 1617 he was made President of the Irish College at the University of Salamanca, and Master of Students and Professor of Divinity.[1] The next year, he went to Rome as chaplain to the Spanish ambassador to the Papal States, Bishop Antonio Trejo de Sande, O.F.M. Wadding collected the funds for the establishment of the College of St. Isidore in Rome, for the education of Irish priests, opened 24 June 1625, with four lecturers — Anthony O'Hicidh of a famous literary family in Thomond, Martin Breathnach from Donegal, Patrick Fleming from Louth, and John Punch from Cork. He gave the college a library of 5,000 printed books and 800 manuscripts, and thirty resident students soon came. Wadding served as rector of the college for 15 years. From 1630 to 1634, he was Procurator of the Order of Friars Minor at their headquarters in Rome, and Vice Commissary from 1645 to 1648. During the papal conclaves of 1644 and 1655, Wadding received votes to become pope, making him "as close as the church has come to having an Irish pope."[3][4] Wadding was an enthusiastic supporter of the Irish Catholics during the Irish Confederate Wars, and his college became the strongest advocate of the Irish cause in Rome. (This spirit of patriotism originated by Wadding had a lasting impact, so that the 19th-century Catholic Archbishop George Errington, who was sent by Gladstone to explain the relation of English and Irish politics in Rome, reported that those Irish politicians thought most extreme in England were conservatives compared with the collegians of St. Isidore.) Wadding sent officers and arms to Ireland, and induced Pope Innocent X to send there Giovanni Battista Rinuccini. The confederate Catholics petitioned Pope Urban VIII to make Wadding a cardinal, but he found ways to intercept the petition, and it remained in the archives of the college.[5] Luke Wadding was an important art patron. He commissioned artworks for St. Isidore's church in Rome. The painters Andrea Sacchi and Carlo Maratti were the most famous artists commissioned by Wadding. Death Wadding died on 18 November 1657 at the age of 69 and is buried in the church of the College of San Isidore, in Rome. His life was written by Francis Harold, his nephew. The learned Franciscan friar Bonaventura Baron was another nephew. Legacy Wadding founded the Pontifical Irish College for Irish secular clergy. In 1900, Wadding's portrait and part of his library were in the Franciscan friary on Merchant's Quay, Dublin. Through Wadding's efforts, St Patrick's Day became a feast day.[2] But it would take years for it to develop, taking until the 20th century for St. Patrick's Day parades to occur in his native Ireland, while the first organized celebration in America took place in the 18th century in cities like Boston and New York, and today occurs in faraway places like Russia and Japan.[3] Amid all the celebrations, most Irish today do not know about the "Waterford man who created St. Patrick's Day."[3] In the 1950s, a statue of Wadding was erected on the Mall in Waterford, adjacent to Reginald's Tower and one of the city's most prominent locations. The Waterford-born Franciscan's literary, academic and theological attributes were denoted by a quill pen held poised in the statue's right hand. More recently this statue was replaced by one of Thomas Francis Meagher. The figure of Luke Wadding was moved to a position at the entrance to the French Church, Waterford on Greyfriars. In 2000, the Waterford Institute of Technology dedicated a new library building to his name.[6] Works A voluminous writer, his chief work was the Annales Minorum in 8 folio volumes (1625–1654), re-edited in the 18th century and continued up to the year 1622; it is the classical work on Franciscan history. He published also a Bibliotheca of Franciscan writers, an edition of the works of Duns Scotus, and the first collection of the writings of St Francis of Assisi.[5][7] Wadding published a total of 36 volumes – fourteen at Rome, twenty-one at Lyon, and one at Antwerp. Annales Minorum, in eight volumes (1625–54) Duns Scotus in twelve volumes (1639, fol.) πρεσβεία [Presbeia] published at Louvain (1624) a treatise on the immaculate conception of the Virgin. The doctrine of the immaculate conception of the Virgin, the works of Duns Scotus, and the history of the Franciscan order were his favourite subjects of study. De Hebraicæ origine, præstantia, et utilitate his essay is prefixed to the concordance of the Hebrew scriptures of Mario di Calasio, which Wadding prepared for the press in 1621.[5] See also Michael Wadding (priest) List of people on stamps of Ireland References and sources Notes 1.

  • The Transculturation of Exile: Visual Style and Identity in the Frescoes of the Aula Maxima at St
    The Transculturation of Exile 89 Chapter 3 The Transculturation of Exile: Visual Style and Identity in the Frescoes of the Aula Maxima at St. Isidore’s (1672) As you enter the Aula Maxima, or great hall, at St. Isidore’s Irish Franciscan College, your attention is immediately drawn to the four large portraits of the friar scholars along the eastern wall, from left to right: Luke Wadding (founder of the college), Anthony Hickey (Wadding’s assistant), John Colgan (student and master of studies at St. Anthony’s, Louvain, and editor of the Acta Sanc­ torum, 1645), and John Punch, (professor at St. Isidore’s) (figs. 3.1–3.4). Each wears the brown Franciscan habit and sandals and is seated at a desk, where texts are open for both reading and writing; at least three of them hold a pen in hand. Each is in a book-lined cell, where we can read some of the titles on the spines of the books that fill their shelves. Atop each portrait we can see a Latin epigram painted in italics, surrounded by a decorative golden border, also painted to give the illusion of a frame. Below each portrait is a biography of each sitter painted in Roman capitals that gives the illusion that they were cut into marble. The colors that predominate are the muted tan of the vellum of the book spines and the grey green of the walls, relieved only by the light com- ing from the windows depicted in Wadding’s and Hickey’s portraits and cast in shadows in those of Colgan and Punch.

  • Documents from the Thomond Papers at Petworth House Archive1 [With Index]
    Luke McInerney Documents from the Thomond Papers at Petworth House Archive1 [with index] The Petworth House Archive (PHA) is an important and under-exploited repository for research into seventeenth and eighteenth-century Co. Clare. Petworth House, the historic seat of the earls of Egremont, holds primary source material relating to the estates of the earls of Thomond in North Munster, chiefly for Co. Clare but also Co. Limerick and Co. Tipperary. The material preserved at Petworth contains a range of material includ- ing estate management documentation, correspondence, accounts, legal papers, military, parliamentary papers, family history, maps and surveys.2 Only a small proportion of the tens of thousands of documents in the archive relate to the earls of Thomond’s Irish estates and the surviving ‘Thomond papers’ probably represent only a fraction of the original col- lection, loss and damage having taken its toll. Not all of the Thomond material is listed in the current Petworth catalogue; a large portion of the material is still available only in an unpublished early nineteenth-century manuscript catalogue. For historians of Gaelic Ireland the Thomond papers are notewor- thy as they contain detail on landholding at different social levels; key legal instruments such as inquisitions post mortem of Connor O’Brien (1581) third earl of Thomond, and Donough O’Brien (1624) fourth earl of Thomond, are preserved in the archive, along with petitions and leases of Gaelic freeholders. Freeholders of sept-lineages petitioned for restoration of their lands as they were increasingly disenfranchised in the new land- holding matrix of seventeenth century Co.

  • Leadership in State Genesis: Creative Vicediction, Guardianship, and the Crystallization of Sovereign Authority
    Leadership in State Genesis: Creative Vicediction, Guardianship, and the Crystallization of Sovereign Authority DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Tahseen Kazi Graduate Program in Comparative Studies The Ohio State University 2014 Dissertation Committee: Eugene Holland, Advisor Sonja Amadae Philip Armstrong Mathew Coleman Luis Lobo-Guerrero Copyrighted by Tahseen Kazi 2014 Abstract The complicity of leadership in the genesis of sovereign authority is neglected in contemporary political thought to the detriment of our understanding of both of these concepts. Dissatisfied with contemporary reliance on notions such as sovereign decision which ultimately imply primal repression as the sole source of all authority, my research takes the genesis of sovereignty as a problem to be solved rather than as an unalterable, natural occurrence to be presumed. Drawing on such diverse resources as Foucault’s concept of parrhesia, Weber’s concept of charisma, anthropological and mythological accounts of authority, Simondon’s theory of the genesis of the individual as crystallization, and primarily on Deleuzian philosophy, I offer an account of the genesis of the sovereign state as the result of the conjugation of two modes of leadership: leadership by guardianship and leadership by creative vicediction. Whereas leadership by guardianship in the Platonic tradition makes claim to judgment on the authority of customary founding myths, thereby severely limiting leadership’s transformative potential, leadership by creative vicediction, a ii concept I develop, trespasses on such myths to critically engage with their representation of the present circumstance, and presubjectively and affectively guides others toward another way of being.

  • Carlin Hornbostel
    Hornbostel 1 Carlin Hornbostel Mr. Rutherford Oxford Scholars 6 March 2018 Politics, religion, and language Not only in our country, but in the world, people have been and are divided. It is human nature for people to become split and it doesn’t help that according to in-group favoritism, it has been observed that people treat those in their “own group” better. For this essay I wanted to look back at history as to what has been the root of division in countries around the world. In doing so it will help me understand better the division in our world today. I am not talking about a simple disagreeance or contrast in views, rather something that is rooted so deeply that it has the power to divide an entire nation. In my investigation I arrived at three main dividers: the political turmoil that has challenged America, the differences in religion that violently tore apart the island of Ireland, and the language barrier that troubles the nation of Belgium today; and further looked at how they relate to us today As we all know, America is very divided right now over very difficult issues. Our country is no rookie at being divided, and a deeper division can be traced all the way back to the late 1800s. Had a few things gone differently during the Civil War, we may have seen a complete separation in the United States. This type of colossal division was rooted in the politics of the time, specifically to do with the view of the government's Hornbostel 2 power to regulate slavery.
