Humanly we are quite inadequate to change the world, so Jesus gave us his Holy Spirit. By uniting our spirit to his Spirit and then relying on God in every situation, adequacy is not the question. It's willingness. Are we willing to put time and effort and spiritual growth into being Christ's hands and feet and voice for the world? Because Jesus ascended to heaven, he has no hands but our hands, and he has no voice but our voice. Are you unhappy about the evils that exist in this world? God has great plans to bring his kingdom into these situations. Are you concerned about the abuses you see? Immorality on television? Injustices in your workplace?

  • The Cassiciacum Thesis a Brief Exposition
    1 The Cassiciacum Thesis A Brief Exposition by Rev. Nicolás E. Despósito Saint Thomas Aquinas: When there are two things, both of which we speak of as being something or as doing something, then one of them—the one that is first—serves as the form, ​ ​ whereas the other serves as the matter. ​ ​ Sententia libri De anima II, lect. IV. ​ Saint Robert Bellarmine: When Cardinals create the Pontiff, they exercise their authority not over the Pontiff, because he does not yet exist; but over the matter, that is, over the person whom ​ ​ they dispose in a certain measure through election, that he might receive the form ​ of the pontificate from God. De Romano Pontifice, lib II, cap. XXX. ​ Saint Antoninus of Florence: The power of the Pope remains in the Church and in the College with respect to that which is material in the papacy, since after the death of the Pope the College is able, through election, to determine a person to the papacy, that it be such or such a one. Summa Sacrae Theologiae, pars III, tit. XXI, n.3. ​ Introduction AROUND SIXTY YEARS AGO, the theological equivalent of an atomic bomb was dropped on the Catholic Church. After the death of Pope Pius XII, his apparent successor decided to call upon a General Council. The Second Vatican Council, as it is known, took place under John XXIII and Paul VI successively, between the years 1962 and 1965. These two popes - so called - maneuvered the Council in such a way as to favor the most radical ideas which were being defended by the so called “new theologians”.

It will be alive to the best writing of a transnational and comparative nature and will cross canonical chronological divides of the Central Middle Ages, the Late Middle Ages and the Early Modern Period. Renaissance History, Art and Culture intends to spark new ideas and encourage debate on the meanings, extent and influence of the Renaissance within the broader European world. It encourages engagement by scholars across disciplines – history, literature, art history, musicology, and possibly the social sciences – and focuses on ideas and collective mentalities as social, political, and cultural movements that shaped a changing world from ca 1250 to 1650.

The first scene in the series of six bronze reliefs depicts St. Antoninus Receiving the Dominican Habit from the Blessed Giovanni Dominici. Antoninus appears as a young boy kneeling before his spiritual mentor, Giovanni Dominici (1356-1419), another famous Dominican preacher; two groups of spectators, lay and ecclesiastical, are observing the event. According to Antoninus’ biographers, as a young boy he was much fascinated by Dominici’s sermons, which led him to appeal to Dominici to let him join the Dominican order. Concerned about Antoninus’ tender age, Dominici decided to test him; he gave him the task of learning Gratian’s Decretum by heart. After a year, Antoninus was examined by Dominici and was able to convince him of his true faith. Dominici then gave the habit to Antoninus – the scene depicted on the relief. This paper shall address the interrelationships between canon law and public preaching as expressed in the activities of two celebrated Dominican preachers Giovanni Dominici and Antoninus Pierozzi in fifteenth century Florence.

Downloaded On 2021/10/01 03:09:24 -0400 Failed Censures: Ecclesiastical Regulation of Women’s Clothing in Late Medieval Italy Thomas M. Izbicki Beginning in the eleventh century, reforming clergy attempted to bring the sobriety expected of monks and nuns to the lives of secular clerics and the laity. These efforts had mixed success, especially in the regulation of clothing. Popes and bishops tried again and again to check excesses of clergy who wore expensive cloth, gaudy colors, revealing cuts, and accessories more fitting to knights than to their religious calling.1 Efforts to curb excess in the creation of lay garments and fashionable accessories usually fell to preachers like the Franciscan St. Bernardino of Siena and the Dominican reformer Girolamo Savonarola or to confessors.2 Here too campaigns against vanity of dress and excessive display, although they might have short-term success, failed in the long run. The laity, men and women alike, continued dressing according to the fashion of time and place. Some theologians, like the Dominican observant Archbishop Antoninus of Florence, even were willing to bow to local custom and the social status of the lay people involved.3 Prelates rarely legislated on this matter.
