  • Catholic Shrines in Chennai, India: the Politics of Renewal and Apostolic Legacy
    CATHOLIC SHRINES IN CHENNAI, INDIA: THE POLITICS OF RENEWAL AND APOSTOLIC LEGACY BY THOMAS CHARLES NAGY A thesis submitted to the Victoria University of Wellington in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Religious Studies Victoria University of Wellington (2014) Abstract This thesis investigates the phenomenon of Catholic renewal in India by focussing on various Roman Catholic churches and shrines located in Chennai, a large city in South India where activities concerning saintal revival and shrinal development have taken place in the recent past. The thesis tracks the changing local significance of St. Thomas the Apostle, who according to local legend, was martyred and buried in Chennai. In particular, it details the efforts of the Church hierarchy in Chennai to bring about a revival of devotion to St. Thomas. In doing this, it covers a wide range of issues pertinent to the study of contemporary Indian Christianity, such as Indian Catholic identity, Indian Christian indigeneity and Hindu nationalism, as well as the marketing of St. Thomas and Catholicism within South India. The thesis argues that the Roman Catholic renewal and ―revival‖ of St. Thomas in Chennai is largely a Church-driven hierarchal movement that was specifically initiated for the purpose of Catholic evangelization and missionization in India. Furthermore, it is clear that the local Church‘s strategy of shrinal development and marketing encompasses Catholic parishes and shrines throughout Chennai‘s metropolitan area, and thus, is not just limited to those sites associated with St. Thomas‘s Apostolic legacy. i Acknowledgements This thesis is dedicated to the memory of my father Richard M.

When Texas became a state of the union in 1845, it continued under the care of Bishop Freeman. The Diocese of Texas was organized in 1849 and continued under Bishop Freeman’s care until Bishop Gregg was consecrated. The original diocese, comprising the whole state, was divided in 1874. Since that time, the Diocese of Texas has been made up of the 57 counties of southeast and east Texas, viz: that portion of the State of Texas lying south of the northern line of the counties of Lampasas, Coryell, McLennan, Limestone, Freestone, Anderson, Smith, Gregg, and Marion, and east of the western line of the counties of Matagorda, Colorado, Fayette, Bastrop, Travis, Burnet, and Lampasas.

  • Blood in Hittite Ritual
    Blood IN Hittite Ritual Gary Beckman (University of Michigan) The generally anonymous authors of the texts that describe the rites of the Hittite state cult were practical men.1 Laconically they set forth the procedures to be followed and wasted few words explicating or justifying either the ceremonies or the individual ritual actions of which they were composed. Thus in our consideration of the meaning and function of blood in Hittite religious practice,2 we cannot avail ourselves of any clear statement of na- tive belief analogous to that found for Israel in the Hebrew Bible: “For the life of the flesh is in the blood; and I have given it to you for making atonement for your lives on the altar; for, as life, it is the blood that makes atonement.”3 Nonetheless, Hittite compositions of various genres do contain passages revealing that in H ̮ atti blood (ešh ̮ar 4) was recognized as the carrier of life and strength. Conversely, its presence was taken as an index of mortality. In a legendary account of the campaigns conducted in Anatolia by the Sargonic king Narām-Sîn, the ruler commands that a scout be dispatched to perform the following test on terrifying beings encountered by his forces: When he proceeds to pierce(!) them with a spear and cut them with a blade(?)—if [blood] spurts forth from them, they are human, and I shall go against them (in battle). If blood does not spurt forth from them, they are deities, and I will not go against them.5 In the course of an “induction ceremony” into the Hittite army, wine is poured out on the ground before the sol- diers concerned, and the officiant addresses them: Abbreviations employed here are those of The Hittite Dictionary of the Oriental Institute of the University of Chicago (1980–).

  • The Krk Diocese
    THE KRK DIOCESE THE ISLES SHALL WAIT FOR HIS TEACHINGS O I R E T S I IN M T I E N IO ORAT FOREWORD The centuries-long presence of Christianity on the islands of the Krk Diocese is deeply rooted in the life and culture of its population, which has been subject to a succession of various social orders during the course of history. Until the year 1828, there were three dioceses within this territory: Krk, Osor and Rab. The presence of a bishop and his relationship with the people had a strong impact upon spiritual formation and identity. The pas- tors of the small dioceses of the Kvarner Islands demonstrated magna- nimity and openness of spirit toward the beautiful and modern, while at the same time listening to the “pulse” of the people, incorporating their language in worship. The beauty of handwritten and illuminated Glagolitic missals, psalters and antiphonals greatly enriched the corpus of liturgical literature traditionally written in Latin. Christian culture, both spiritual and material, is reflected here in the arts of painting, architecture, literature, poetry and music. This is a Church distinguished by its priests and religious, especially the Benedictines and Franciscans, including those with the reputation of saintliness, who have played exceptional historical roles in the raising and fostering of national consciousness, enhancement of the quality of life, education in moral principles, and the creation and safeguarding of the cultural heritage. These values provided a firm foundation for assuring the survival of this nation under changing conditions, not infrequently im- posed by fire and sword.

  • Intinction: an Historical, Exegetical, and Systematic-Theological Examination Reverend Lane B
    Intinction: An Historical, Exegetical, and Systematic-Theological Examination Reverend Lane B. Keister December 2012 Introduction: What Is At Stake? The Reformers commonly spoke of three marks of the true church: the gospel faithfully preached, the sacraments faithfully administered, and church discipline properly carried out. Intinction, which may be defined as the practice of dipping the bread into the wine during the administration of the Lord's Supper, affects one of the three marks of the church, i.e., the correct administration of the sacraments. No one in the debate would claim that the gospel is at stake. Nor would anyone claim that the Lord's Supper becomes null and void through the use of intinction. What this paper will attempt to prove is that the issue at stake is neither more nor less than the clarity of the sign of the Lord's Supper. As such, it is an issue that cannot be ignored. However, no church or teaching elder that currently practices intinction in our denomination should feel that they are under attack because of this practice. No church should be run out of town on a rail on this basis! If proponents of the change to the PCA's BCO should be victorious, all that would be required is a change in practice. These comments are offered for two reasons: 1. The temperature of the debate should be low. There is no need for heat in what should be a collegial and brotherly debate. 2. The issue needs to be seen in its proper context, as neither a gospel- level issue (a hill on which to die), nor an issue to be ignored (as if it were an attempt to prescribe, say, the shape of every Reformed church building).

  • Mediating Relationships: Social Media, Lay Catholics, and Church Hierarchy
    Mediating Relationships: Social Media, Lay Catholics, and Church Hierarchy A dissertation presented to the faculty of the Scripps College of Communication of Ohio University In partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree Doctor of Philosophy Mary Catherine Kennedy December 2014 © 2014 Mary Catherine Kennedy. All Rights Reserved. This dissertation titled Mediating Relationships: Social Media, Lay Catholics, and Church Hierarchy by MARY CATHERINE KENNEDY has been approved for the School of Media Arts and Studies and the Scripps College of Communication by Gregory D. Newton Associate Professor of Media Arts and Studies Scott Titsworth Dean, Scripps College of Communication ii ABSTRACT KENNEDY, MARY CATHERINE, Ph.D., December 2014, Mass Communication Mediating Relationships: Social Media, Lay Catholics, and Church Hierarchy. Director of Dissertation: Gregory D. Newton This study represents one of the first forays into how the Catholic Church is using social media for organizational purposes. Through the lens of Jenkins’s (2006) theory of convergence culture, Fisher’s (1985; 1999) narrative paradigm, the public relations strategies surrounding relationship maintenance (Ledingham and Bruning, 1998), and Turner’s (1969) liminality, this study examined how lay Catholics and members of Church hierarchy within the Diocese of Browntown use social media space for religious dialogue and for connecting with one another. The findings suggest that there is desire for connectivity among lay Catholics and parish priests and that social media space does provide a great avenue to foster these connections, but the connections are very slow to be made at this time. In light of the Social Age (Azua, 2010), religious institutions, and most notably the Catholic Church, have been making efforts to use social media to harness the faith of their flock.

  • 5, Webisode 10
    Please note: Each segment in this Webisode has its own Teaching Guide The muckrakers had a good friend in Sam McClure. He founded McClure’s Magazine, which set a new standard for activist journalism and created a new field, investigative journalism. Most important, he hired the best writers he could find: Ida Tarbell, Lincoln Steffens, Jack London, Booth Tarkington, Rudyard Kipling, Stephen Crane, and Willa Cather. Ida Tarbell broke new ground not only in showing what a woman could do in a traditionally male occupation but also in setting a standard for scholarship, fairness, and integrity in the new field of investigative journalism. Her painstakingly researched The History of the Standard Oil Company detailed the illegal tactics used by John D. Rockefeller and led to the 1911 Supreme Court decision to break up the Standard Oil trust. Another female muckraker, Elizabeth Jane Cochrane, got her first job at a newspaper at age nineteen; by twenty-five, she was the most famous woman in the world, known as the daring round-the-world reporter Nellie Bly. Editor Sam McClure and energetic journalists exercised their First Amendment right and used the pen to expose the excesses of the Gilded Age. They gave birth to the field of investigative journalism. Teacher Directions 1. Ask students to predict. • From what you know about the last half of the nineteenth century, what problems might newspaper writers expose? 2. Allow time for student response. 3. Make sure students understand the following points in discussing the question. In the Gilded Age, industry boomed and large corporations grew.

  • The Potential of Animal By-Products in Food Systems: Production, Prospects and Challenges
    sustainability Review The Potential of Animal By-Products in Food Systems: Production, Prospects and Challenges Babatunde O. Alao 1,*, Andrew B. Falowo 1, Amanda Chulayo 1,2 and Voster Muchenje 1 1 Department of Livestock and Pasture Science, University of Fort Hare, Private Bag X314, Alice 5700, South Africa; [email protected] (A.B.F.); [email protected] (A.C.); [email protected] (V.M.) 2 Dohne Agricultural Development Institute, Department of Rural Development and Agrarian Reform, Private Bag X15, Stutterheim 4935, South Africa * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +27-833-46-4435 Received: 9 May 2017; Accepted: 16 June 2017; Published: 22 June 2017 Abstract: The consumption of animal by-products has continued to witness tremendous growth over the last decade. This is due to its potential to combat protein malnutrition and food insecurity in many countries. Shortly after slaughter, animal by-products are separated into edible or inedible parts. The edible part accounts for 55% of the production while the remaining part is regarded as inedible by-products (IEBPs). These IEBPs can be re-processed into sustainable products for agricultural and industrial uses. The efficient utilization of animal by-products can alleviate the prevailing cost and scarcity of feed materials, which have high competition between animals and humans. This will also aid in reducing environmental pollution in the society. In this regard, proper utilization of animal by-products such as rumen digesta can result in cheaper feed, reduction in competition and lower cost of production. Over the years, the utilization of animal by-products such as rumen digesta as feed in livestock feed has been successfully carried out without any adverse effect on the animals.

  • Byzantine Critiques of Monasticism in the Twelfth Century
    A “Truly Unmonastic Way of Life”: Byzantine Critiques of Monasticism in the Twelfth Century DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Hannah Elizabeth Ewing Graduate Program in History The Ohio State University 2014 Dissertation Committee: Professor Timothy Gregory, Advisor Professor Anthony Kaldellis Professor Alison I. Beach Copyright by Hannah Elizabeth Ewing 2014 Abstract This dissertation examines twelfth-century Byzantine writings on monasticism and holy men to illuminate monastic critiques during this period. Drawing upon close readings of texts from a range of twelfth-century voices, it processes both highly biased literary evidence and the limited documentary evidence from the period. In contextualizing the complaints about monks and reforms suggested for monasticism, as found in the writings of the intellectual and administrative elites of the empire, both secular and ecclesiastical, this study shows how monasticism did not fit so well in the world of twelfth-century Byzantium as it did with that of the preceding centuries. This was largely on account of developments in the role and operation of the church and the rise of alternative cultural models that were more critical of traditional ascetic sanctity. This project demonstrates the extent to which twelfth-century Byzantine society and culture had changed since the monastic heyday of the tenth century and contributes toward a deeper understanding of Byzantine monasticism in an under-researched period of the institution. ii Dedication This dissertation is dedicated to my family, and most especially to my parents. iii Acknowledgments This dissertation is indebted to the assistance, advice, and support given by Anthony Kaldellis, Tim Gregory, and Alison Beach.
