  • The Catholic Church in the Czech Lands During the Nazi
    STUDIA HUMANITATIS JOURNAL, 2021, 1 (1), pp. 192-208 ISSN: 2792-3967 DOI: https://doi.org/10.53701/shj.v1i1.22 Artículo / Article THE CATHOLIC CHURCH IN THE CZECH LANDS DURING THE NAZI OCCUPATION IN 1939–1945 AND AFTER1 LA IGLESIA CATÓLICA EN LOS TERRITORIOS CHECOS DURANTE LA OCUPACIÓN NAZI ENTRE LOS AÑOS 1939–1945 Y DESPUÉS Marek Smid Charles University, Czech Republic ORCID: 0000-0001-8613-8673 [email protected] | Abstract | This study addresses the religious persecution in the Czech lands (Bohemia, Moravia and Czech Silesia) during World War II, when these territories were part of the Bohemian and Moravian Protectorate being occupied by Nazi Germany. Its aim is to demonstrate how the Catholic Church, its hierarchy and its priests acted as relevant patriots who did not hesitate to stand up to the occupying forces and express their rejection of their procedures. Both the domestic Catholic camp and the ties abroad towards the Holy See and its representation will be analysed. There will also be presented the personalities of priests, who became the victims of the Nazi rampage in the Czech lands at the end of the study. The basic method consists of a descriptive analysis that takes into account the comparative approach of the spiritual life before and after the occupation. Furthermore, the analytical-synthetic method will be used, combined with the subsequent interpretation of the findings. An additional method, not always easy to apply, is hermeneutics, i.e., the interpretation of socio-historical phenomena in an effort to reveal the uniqueness of the analysed texts and sources and emphasize their singularity in the cultural and spiritual development of Czech Church history in the first half of the 20th century.

  • Saint Leonard Murialdo (1828 – 1900)
    SAINT LEONARD MURIALDO (1828 – 1900). Beatified on 1963 Canonized on 3-5-1970 Early years Leonard Murialdo was born in Turin in 1828, eighth child of a well-to-do family. He lost his father at just four years of age, however he received an excellent Catholic education at the Scolopian College in Savona. As a youth he went through a profound spiritual crisis which converted him and helped him discover his priestly vocation. In Turin he took up his philosophical and theolgical studies. In these years he began to work at the Guardian Angels Oratory, run by his cousin, Fr. Robert Murialdo. With Don Cafasso and Don Bosco Thanks to this collaboration he came directly in touch with the problems of Turinese young people: street children, prisoners, chimney sweeps, shop hands. In 1851, he was ordained priest. He began to work in strict collaboration with Fr. Cafasso and Don Bosco, and took on the administration of the St. Aloysius Oratory at Don Bosco's request. Leonard breathed the preventive system, incarnated it and applied it in all his future educational works. In 1866, he accepted the administration of the Artigianelli College in Turin dedicated to taking in and providing a Catholic and technical education for poor and abandoned boys. He made many journeys throughout Italy, France, and England visiting educational and welfare institutions, to learn, and to address and improve the educational system. Founder of the Giuseppini He was amongst those fostering the first popular Catholic Libraries and Catholic Workers Unions, and would be their ecclesiastical assistant for many years.

  • Art and Politics at the Neapolitan Court of Ferrante I, 1458-1494
    ABSTRACT Title of Dissertation: KING OF THE RENAISSANCE: ART AND POLITICS AT THE NEAPOLITAN COURT OF FERRANTE I, 1458-1494 Nicole Riesenberger, Doctor of Philosophy, 2016 Dissertation directed by: Professor Meredith J. Gill, Department of Art History and Archaeology In the second half of the fifteenth century, King Ferrante I of Naples (r. 1458-1494) dominated the political and cultural life of the Mediterranean world. His court was home to artists, writers, musicians, and ambassadors from England to Egypt and everywhere in between. Yet, despite its historical importance, Ferrante’s court has been neglected in the scholarship. This dissertation provides a long-overdue analysis of Ferrante’s artistic patronage and attempts to explicate the king’s specific role in the process of art production at the Neapolitan court, as well as the experiences of artists employed therein. By situating Ferrante and the material culture of his court within the broader discourse of Early Modern art history for the first time, my project broadens our understanding of the function of art in Early Modern Europe. I demonstrate that, contrary to traditional assumptions, King Ferrante was a sophisticated patron of the visual arts whose political circumstances and shifting alliances were the most influential factors contributing to his artistic patronage. Unlike his father, Alfonso the Magnanimous, whose court was dominated by artists and courtiers from Spain, France, and elsewhere, Ferrante differentiated himself as a truly Neapolitan king. Yet Ferrante’s court was by no means provincial. His residence, the Castel Nuovo in Naples, became the physical embodiment of his commercial and political network, revealing the accretion of local and foreign visual vocabularies that characterizes Neapolitan visual culture.
