  • Erwin Panofsky
    Reprinted from DE ARTIBUS OPUSCULA XL ESSAYS IN HONOR OF ERWIN PANOFSKY Edited l!J M I L LA RD M EIS S New York University Press • I90r Saint Bridget of Sweden As Represented in Illuminated Manuscripts CARL NORDENFALK When faced with the task of choosing an appropriate subject for a paper to be published in honor of Erwin Panofsky most contributors must have felt themselves confronted by an embarras de richesse. There are few main problems in the history of Western art, from the age of manuscripts to the age of movies, which have not received the benefit of Pan's learned, pointed, and playful pen. From this point of view, therefore, almost any subject would provide a suitable opportunity for building on foundations already laid by him to whom we all wish to pay homage. The task becomes at once more difficult if, in addition to this, more specific aims are to be considered. A Swede, for instance, wishing to see the art and culture of his own country play apart in this work, the association with which is itself an honor, would first of all have to ask himself if anything within his own national field of vision would have a meaning in this truly international context. From sight-seeing in the company of Erwin Panofsky during his memorable visit to Sweden in 1952 I recall some monuments and works of art in our country in which he took an enthusiastic interest and pleasure.' But considering them as illustrations for this volume, I have to realize that they are not of the international standard appropriate for such a concourse of contributors and readers from two continents.

  • St Bridget of Sweden –
    St Bridget of Sweden – From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Bridget of Sweden (c. 1303 – 23 July 1373); born as Birgitta Birgersdotter, also Birgitta of Vadstena, or Saint Birgitta (Swedish: heliga Birgitta), was a mystic and saint, and founder of the Bridgettines nuns and monks after the death of her husband of twenty years. Outside of Sweden, she was also known as the Princess of Nericia[2] and was the mother of Catherine of Vadstena. (Though normally named as Bridget of Sweden, she was not a member of Swedish royalty.) She is one of the six patron saints of Europe, together with Benedict of Nursia, Saints Cyril and Methodius, Catherine of Siena and Edith Stein. The most celebrated saint of Sweden was the daughter of the knight Birger Persson[3] of the family of Finsta, governor and lawspeaker of Uppland, and one of the richest landowners of the country, and his wife Ingeborg Bengtsdotter, a member of the so-called Lawspeaker branch of theFolkunga family. Through her mother, Ingeborg, Birgitta was related to the Swedish kings of her era. She was born in 1303. There is no exact recording for which precise date. In 1316, at the age of 14[3] she married Ulf Gudmarsson of the family of Ulvåsa, Lord of Närke, to whom she bore eight children, four daughters and four sons. Six survived infancy, which was rare at that time. Her eldest daughter was Märta Ulfsdotter. Her second daughter is now honored as St. Catherine of Sweden. Her youngest daughter was Cecilia Ulvsdotter. Bridget became known for her works of charity, particularly toward Östergötland’s unwed mothers and their children.

  • The Tradition of the Red Mass Was Begun by Pope Innocent IV in 1243
    Mass with Bishop Timothy L. Doherty followed by a dinner for legal professionals and a presentation by Notre Dame Law Professor Richard W. Garnett The tradition of the Red Mass was begun by Pope Innocent IV in 1243 for the Ecclesial Judical Court asking the invocation of the Holy Spirit as a source of wisdom, understanding, counsel, fortitude and strength for the coming term of the court. The color red signifies the Holy Spirit and martyrdom. St. Thomas More is the patron saint of lawyers. The Diocese of Lafayette-in-Indiana will celebrate the fifth annual Red Mass on Monday, October 5, 2020, at the Cathedral of St. Mary of the Immaculate Conception in Lafayette at 5:30 pm. All government officials (federal, state, local levels, executive, legislative, judicial branches), attorneys, paralegals, law students and their spouses are cordially invited to attend. One does not have to be Catholic to join us in prayer and fellowship for the legal community. The Red Mass is a tradition in the Catholic Church which dates back to the 13th century. The first Red Mass is believed to have been celebrated in the Cathedral of Paris in 1245, and thereafter the tradition spread throughout Europe. A Red Mass was initially celebrated to mark the beginning of the annual term of the courts but can be held at other times. The word “red” was originally used to describe the Mass in 1310, because the justices of the English Supreme Court wore scarlet robes. Over time the “Red” Mass came to have a deeper theological meaning, with red symbolizing the “tongues of fire” that descended upon the Apostles at Pentecost bestowing the gifts of the Spirit.

  • St Catherine of Siena St Catherine of Siena
    StSt CatherineCatherine ofof SienaSiena Feast day ~29th April ‘Growing in goodness’ St Catherine of Siena was born on the 25th of March, 1347 in Siena, Italy. She was the 23rd child of Jacopo and Lapa Benincasa. Catherine was so cheerful that her family gave her the nickname “Euphrosyne”, which means“joy” in Greek. As Catherine grew, she began to have mystical experiences, seeing guardian angels when she was only six. Later, Catherine had a vision of St Dominic and decided to join his religious order – the Dominicans. Her parents wanted her to get married, but Catherine cut off her hair as a protest and her father then said she should be left in peace. When Catherine was 16, she became a Dominican tertiary and she spent the next three years in prayer and meditation. Catherine grew in goodness, and other people gathered around her, inspired by Catherine’s contemplative life. Although Catherine never had any formal education, she became well respected as a mystic and a spiritual writer. She also began to become involved in public affairs and in 1374 she visited Florence. Following this visit, Catherine began travelling with her followers throughout northern and central Italy advocating reform of the clergy and advising people that repentance and renewal could be done through “total love for God.” Some people objected to Catherine’s involvement in public affairs, but she continued to write letters, asking the Pope to return to Rome from Avignon, and pleading for the unity of the Church. As she grew, Catherine surrendered her life completely to Jesus, seeing this as a goal to be reached through time.

  • St. Bridget of Sweden Feast: July 23
    St. Bridget of Sweden Feast: July 23 Saint Birgitta was the daughter of Uppland's Lagman, Birger Petersson and his wife, Ingeborg, who was a member of the same clan as the reigning family. Birgitta's family was pious; her father went to confession every Friday and made long and arduous pilgrimages as far away as the Holy Land. Birgitta's mother died, leaving Birgitta, ten years old, Katharine, nine and a newborn baby boy, Israel. The children were sent to their maternal aunt for further education and care. It seems that as a young child, Birgitta had a dream- vision of The Man of Sorrows. This dream was very vivid. Birgitta asked Him who had done that to Him. His answer: 'All those who despise my love.' The memory of this dream never left Birgitta and may have even left an indelible mark on her sub-conscious. As was usual during the Middle Ages, Birgitta was married when she was 13 years old to a young man, Ulf Gudmarsson with whom she had eight children, four daughters and four sons, all of them survived infancy, and that was very rare at that time. When the King of Sweden, Magnus Eriksson married Blanche of Namur, he asked his kinswoman, Birgitta to come and be Lady-in Waiting and to teach the young queen the language and customs of her new country. After her years of service at Court, Birgitta and Ulf made the long pilgrimage to Santiago di Compostela. On the return journey Ulf became dangerously ill in Arras. Birgitta feared for his death and sat all night by his bed praying, and then a bishop appeared to her, promised that Ulf would recover and 'God had great things for her to do.' He told her that he was Denis, Patron of France.

  • God's Words, Women's Voices
    GOD'S WORDS, WOMEN'S VOICES: DISCRETIO SPIRITUUM IN THE WRITING OF LATE-MEDIEVAL WOMEN VISIONARIES ROSALYNN VOADEN D. PHIL. THE UNIVERSITY OF YORK DEPARTMENT OF ENGLISH AND RELATED LITERATURE JULY 1994 ABSTRACT This thesis, "God's Words, Women's Voices: discretio spirituum in the Writing of Late-Medieval Women Visionaries" examines the influence of the ecclesiastical doctrine of discretio spirituum, the discerning of spirits, on the textual construction of late-medieval women visionaries. I argue that the doctrine produced a discourse which shaped the articulation of women's revelations, controlled their relationship with their spiritual superiors, and established appropriate behaviour. Visions and prophecy offered medieval women one of the few pathways to authority in the religious and, in some cases, the political life of their time. Those women visionaries who conformed to the restrictions imposed by discretio spirituum could achieve authority and status and effectively fulfil their divine mandate to communicate their revelations. I explore the use of the discourse of discretio spirituum in the Revelaciones of St. Bridget of Sweden, and suggest that Bridget is a very skilled proponent. I then consider The Book of Margery Kempe, and propose that the ambivalent reception of Margery as a visionary, during her lifetime, and, subsequently, of her Book, is due to her imperfect knowledge and inconsistent employment of the discourse. Awareness of the discourse of discretio spirituum was vital for medieval women visionaries; it is equally vital for the modern scholar seeking to understand the written works that they bequeathed to us. My edition of the only extant Middle English translation of the Epistola solitari7 ad reges of Alfonso of Ja6n, amanuensis of Bridget of Sweden, forms an appendix to the thesis.

    MYRROR TO DEVOUT PEOPLE (SPECULUM DEVOTORUM): AN EDITION WITH COMMENTARY A Dissertation Submitted to the Graduate School of the University of Notre Dame in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy by Paul J. Patterson, B.S., M.A. ______________________________ Jill Mann, Co-director _______________________________ Jesse Lander, Co-director Graduate Program in English Notre Dame, Indiana November 2006 © Copyright by Paul J. Patterson 2006 All Rights Reserved MYRROR TO DEVOUT PEOPLE (SPECULUM DEVOTORUM): AN EDITION WITH COMMENTARY Abstract by Paul J. Patterson This dissertation provides a new edition of the Mirror to Devout People , which survives in two manuscripts: Notre Dame, Indiana, University of Notre Dame, MS 67 (ND) and Cambridge, University Library, MS Gg.1.6 (C). Two previous editions of this text were completed as unpublished dissertations. Bridget Ann Wilsher’s 1956 University of London dissertation uses C as a base text and ND to fill in a lacuna; major variations in ND are noted. John Patrick Banks 1959 Fordham dissertation uses ND as the base text; major variations in ND are noted. In 1973, a partial edition edited by James Hogg was published as part of the Analecta Cartusiana series; it lacks the last one-third of the text. The present edition provides a full record of all variant readings in both manuscripts. Based on ND, it uses C to correct errors in sense and syntax, and also uses the sources to identify original readings. A glossary, which contains words that are not easily recognizable to readers of modern English, is included, as well as a complete glossary of all proper names.
