    The Survival of the Confraternities in Post-Reformation Dublin

    The Survival of the Confraternities in Post-Reformation Dublin COLM LENNON St. Patrick 's College, Maynooth When the Reformation came to Dublin in the 1530s it might have seemed as if the age of the confraternities or religious guilds of the city was over. As elsewhere in Europe, these institutions provided conduits for obituar- ial prayer for members and their families, welfare for the deprived, education for the young, and pomp and pageantry for citizens during the civic year. Handsomely endowed with gifts of money, lands and houses, the guilds gave employment to an increasing number of lay-ap- pointed chaplains who celebrated mass at the confraternal altars in the parish churches of Dublin. By the early sixteenth century the guilds had acquired the titles to properties yielding hundreds of pounds per annum in rents from estates in the city, suburbs and vicinity. Membership incorporated men and women from all social orders within the munici- pality, although the preponderance of patrician brothers and sisters in certain key guilds such as those of St. Sythe's in St. Michan's, St. Anne's in St. Audoen's and Corpus Christi in St. Michael's parish was to be a significant feature of their later survival into the seventeenth century. Con- tinuity with medieval devotions was enshrined in the practices and pieties of the guilds, those of St. George and St. Mary's, Mulhuddard, providing an awning for holy wells to the east and west of the city, for example, and the fresco behind the altar of St. Anne's denoting veneration of the holy family.

    John Thomas Mullock: What His Books Reveal

    John Thomas Mullock: What His Books Reveal Ágnes Juhász-Ormsby The Episcopal Library of St. John’s is among the few nineteenth- century libraries that survive in their original setting in the Atlantic provinces, and the only one in Newfoundland and Labrador.1 It was established by John Thomas Mullock (1807–69), Roman Catholic bishop of Newfoundland and later of St. John’s, who in 1859 offered his own personal collection of “over 2500 volumes as the nucleus of a Public Library.” The Episcopal Library in many ways differs from the theological libraries assembled by Mullock’s contemporaries.2 When compared, for example, to the extant collection of the Catholic bishop of Victoria, Charles John Seghers (1839–86), whose life followed a similar pattern to Mullock’s, the division in the founding collection of the Episcopal Library between the books used for “private” as opposed to “public” theological study becomes even starker. Seghers’s books showcase the customary stock of a theological library with its bulky series of manuals of canon law, collections of conciliar and papal acts and bullae, and practical, dogmatic, moral theological, and exegetical works by all the major authors of the Catholic tradition.3 In contrast to Seghers, Mullock’s library, although containing the constitutive elements of a seminary library, is a testimony to its found- er’s much broader collecting habits. Mullock’s books are not restricted to his philosophical and theological studies or to his interest in univer- sal church history. They include literary and secular historical works, biographies, travel books, and a broad range of journals in different languages that he obtained, along with other necessary professional 494 newfoundland and labrador studies, 32, 2 (2017) 1719-1726 John Thomas Mullock: What His Books Reveal tools, throughout his career.

    February 22 ! CNI NEWS FOCUS - Dispelling the myths of The Easter Rising… which did not take place on Easter Day or in March Patrick Comerford writes - As a canon of Christ Church Cathedral, Dublin, I am concerned with the way the commemorations of 1916 look like forcing the cathedral to close on Easter Day, the most important day in the Christian calendar. For the first time since Christ Church Cathedral was built almost 1,000 years ago in 1030, it looks like the central act of worship in calendar of the Church is not going to take place in the cathedral, and all because of a peculiar quirk in our calendars. If this were to happen in Mecca or Moscow, under Saudi laws or Soviet diktats, you could [email protected] Page !1 February 22 imagine the righteous anger throughout the Christian world. The calendars of the state and of our schools, popular events and television programmes, are revolving around events marking the centenary of the 1916 Rising. The Easter Rising began on Monday 24 April 1916, which was neither Easter Day nor in March. But this year’s main centenary events are taking place on Easter Day, Sunday 29 March 2016. The most important day in the Christian calendar has been taken over so that on Easter Day most churchgoers in Dublin are not going to get to the church or cathedral of their choice in the city centre. Despite representations from the Churches, a lockdown in Dublin is going to keep people away from Christ Church Cathedral and many more churches.

I am beginning to feel that, having lived on three continents and seen much, I have seen a lot. Many of you in the Diocese have known me longer than I have known myself! But even those of you who are around longer haven’t seen it all, it would seem. When have we ever seen it all? Never. But we do learn lessons from the past in order to live now. We are truly living in strange and bewildering times. When I say that people have lived through such times before, in our communities locally, nationally, and worldwide, that is not in any way to diminish our own sense of anxiety and vulnerability at this time. Almost certainly by the time this issue of the Diocesan Magazine gets to you (however it does) things will have changed again; they are changing by the hour, yet alone the day.

    The Irish Catholic Episcopal Corps, 1657 – 1829: a Prosopographical Analysis

    THE IRISH CATHOLIC EPISCOPAL CORPS, 1657 – 1829: A PROSOPOGRAPHICAL ANALYSIS VOLUME 1 OF 2 BY ERIC A. DERR THESIS FOR THE DEGREE OF PHD DEPARTMENT OF HISTORY NATIONAL UNIVERISTY OF IRELAND MAYNOOTH SUPERVISOR OF RESEARCH: DR. THOMAS O’CONNOR NOVEMBER 2013 Abstract This study explores, reconstructs and evaluates the social, political, educational and economic worlds of the Irish Catholic episcopal corps appointed between 1657 and 1829 by creating a prosopographical profile of this episcopal cohort. The central aim of this study is to reconstruct the profile of this episcopate to serve as a context to evaluate the ‘achievements’ of the four episcopal generations that emerged: 1657-1684; 1685- 1766; 1767-1800 and 1801-1829. The first generation of Irish bishops were largely influenced by the complex political and religious situation of Ireland following the Cromwellian wars and Interregnum. This episcopal cohort sought greater engagement with the restored Stuart Court while at the same time solidified their links with continental agencies. With the accession of James II (1685), a new generation of bishops emerged characterised by their loyalty to the Stuart Court and, following his exile and the enactment of new penal legislation, their ability to endure political and economic marginalisation. Through the creation of a prosopographical database, this study has nuanced and reconstructed the historical profile of the Jacobite episcopal corps and has shown that the Irish episcopate under the penal regime was not only relatively well-organised but was well-engaged in reforming the Irish church, albeit with limited resources. By the mid-eighteenth century, the post-Jacobite generation (1767-1800) emerged and were characterised by their re-organisation of the Irish Church, most notably the establishment of a domestic seminary system and the setting up and manning of a national parochial system.
