There are histories of the rise and fall of the Roman Empire, of the formation of a working class in Great Britain, of porridge in medieval Europe. We ourselves have explored the history of the experienced (female) body in the West. Now we wish to outline the domain for a history of the gaze - der Blick, le regard, opsis.2 The action of seeing is shaped differently in different epochs. We assume that the gaze can be a human act. Hence, our historical survey is carried out sub specie boni; we wish to explore the possibilities of seeing in the perspective of the good. In what ways is this action ethical? The question arose for us when we saw the necessity of defending the integrity and clarity of our senses - our sense experience - against the insistent encroachments of multimedia from cyberspace. From our backgrounds in history, we felt that we had to resist the dissolution of the past by seemingly sophisticated postmodern catch phrases, for example, the deconstruction of conversation into a process of communication. -

The Role of Creatures in the Spiritual Life
THE ROLE OF CREATURES IN THE SPIRITUAL LIFE To what extent should the Christian love and use the good things of this world, and to what extent should he renounce them? This is the question at issue. It is the problem of the transcendent, supernatural vocation of the Christian and his existential condition in the world on the practical level of ascetical attitudes. It is the problem of engagement and detachment. We take the term creatures in a dynamic and not a static sense, as objects of human acts rather than entities existing apart from man. Creatures embrace the whole hierarchy of humanistic values, all human goods that are legitimate objects of man's love and effort.1 We include whatever natural and supernatural goodness that is found in these human values under the one notion of their created goodness and prescind from the controverted question of the objective permanent value in terrestrial realities.2 1 Created goods are personal, e.g. health, money, love and being loved or social, e.g. culture, civilization, temporal structures; they include the goods' of nature and of art and technology, whether these directly serve the body, like the comforts of climate or furniture, or the mind, like recreation or work! or the human spirit, such as knowledge and love. The classification of these goods and their objective relation to the supernatural economy of grace is the object of the theology of terrestrial reality; our viewpoint, that of spiritual theology, is their subjective repercussions in the spiritual life and ideal attitudes to be fostered toward them. -

St. Francis of Assisi
Saint Francis of Assisi Feast day: October 4th He was born Francesco di Pietro di Bernardone, in Italy around 1181, to a wealthy family. Though Francesco was baptized, he was known for excessive partying and drinking in his youth. He joined the military in Assisi and was captured during a battle between Assisi and Perugia, and then he spent a year in prison. His life began to shift away from attachment to worldly possessions during his imprisonment. He powerfully renounced his family’s dedication to their acquired wealth by stripping himself of his clothes, choosing instead to wear a simple cloth - a habit that Franciscans still wear today to unite themselves to St. Francis. St. Francis is considered one of the most beloved saints in the United States, among both Catholics and non- Catholics. He is the patron saint of the environment and animals because of his care for all creation. He famously wrote the Canticle of the Sun, a hymn of praise. Some consider him to be the first person to receive the holy stigmata that recreated the wounds of Jesus at The Crucifixion, which he received in 1224 when he was approximately 43 years old. St. Francis is a missionary saint. God chose St. Francis to “go, rebuild my Church” – a call that Francis answered literally by rebuilding the San Damiano church as well as living out his faith by caring for the poor and marginalized. He encouraged others to live simply. Ultimately, the call to “go, rebuild my Church” was actualized by Francis reforming the image and lifestyle of clergy, demonstrating the power of simple living, renewing in others the desire to create change – by leading an exemplary life of service – and calling people to renewed faithfulness to Christ and commitment to His mission. -
A Portrait of Central Italy's Geology Through Giotto's
1 A PORTRAIT OF CENTRAL ITALY’S GEOLOGY THROUGH GIOTTO’S PAINTINGS 2 AND ITS POSSIBLE CULTURAL IMPLICATIONS 3 4 Ann C. Pizzorusso 5 6 Independent Geologist, 511 Avenue of the Americas, New York, New York 10011 USA 7 8 Correspondence to: Ann C. Pizzorusso ([email protected]) 9 10 Abstract. Central Italy has some of the most complex geology in the world. In the midst 11 of this inscrutable territory, two people emerged--St. Francis and Giotto--they would 12 ultimately change the history of ecology, religion and art by extoling the landscapes and 13 geology of this region. 14 15 From Antiquity to the Middle Ages, man had a conflictual relationship with nature, seeing 16 it as representing either divine or satanic forces. On the vanguard of a change in 17 perspective toward the natural world was St. Francis of Assisi (c.1181-1226) who is now, 18 thanks to his pioneering work, patron of ecology. He set forth the revolutionary philosophy 19 that the Earth and all living creatures should be respected as creations of the Almighty. 20 21 St. Francis’ affinity for the environment influenced the artist Giotto (c.1270-1337) who 22 revolutionized art history by including natural elements in his religious works. By taking 23 sacred images away from Heaven and placing them in an earthly landscape, he 24 separated them definitively from their abstract, unapproachable representation in 25 Byzantine art. Giotto’s works are distinctive because they portray daily life as blessed, 26 thus demonstrating that the difference between the sacred and profane is minimal. -
Canticle of the Sun
Canticle of the Sun A legend which emphasizes the topos of “brightness” says he did not physically write the Canticle, because of his blindness from an eye disease; but he dictated it and he did it looking at Nature through the eye of mind. Fa- ther Eric Doyle wrote: “Though physically blind, he was able to see more clearly than ever with the inner eye of his mind. With unparalleled clarity he perceived the ba- sic unity of all creation and his own place as a friar in the midst of God’s creatures. His unqualified love of all creatures, great and small, had grown into unity in his own heart. He was so open to reality that it found a place to be at home in his heart and he was at home everywhere and anywhere. He was a centre of communion with all creatures”.[2] The Canticle of the Sun is first mentioned in the Vita Prima of Thomas of Celano in 1228. 1 Text and translation 2 Alternative versions Saint Francis of Assisi, Cigoli, 1600. Perhaps the best-known version in English is the hymn All Creatures of Our God and King, which contains a paraphrase of Saint Francis’ song by William H.
