    IN SEARCH OF A GLOBAL, GODLY ORDER: THE ECUMENICAL MOVEMENT AND THE ORIGINS OF THE LEAGUE OF NATIONS, 1908-1918 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 James M. Donahue __________________________ Mark A. Noll, Director Graduate Program in History Notre Dame, Indiana April 2015 © Copyright 2015 James M. Donahue IN SEARCH OF A GLOBAL, GODLY ORDER: THE ECUMENICAL MOVEMENT AND THE ORIGINS OF THE LEAGUE OF NATIONS, 1908-1918 Abstract by James M. Donahue This dissertation traces the origins of the League of Nations movement during the First World War to a coalescent international network of ecumenical figures and Protestant politicians. Its primary focus rests on the World Alliance for International Friendship Through the Churches, an organization that drew Protestant social activists and ecumenical leaders from Europe and North America. The World Alliance officially began on August 1, 1914 in southern Germany to the sounds of the first shots of the war. Within the next three months, World Alliance members began League of Nations societies in Holland, Switzerland, Germany, Great Britain and the United States. The World Alliance then enlisted other Christian institutions in its campaign, such as the International Missionary Council, the Y.M.C.A., the Y.W.C.A., the Blue Cross and the Student Volunteer Movement. Key figures include John Mott, Charles Macfarland, Adolf Deissmann, W. H. Dickinson, James Allen Baker, Nathan Söderblom, Andrew James M. Donahue Carnegie, Wilfred Monod, Prince Max von Baden and Lord Robert Cecil.

  • “Here I Stand” — the Reformation in Germany And
    Here I Stand The Reformation in Germany and Switzerland Donald E. Knebel January 22, 2017 Slide 1 1. Later this year will be the 500th anniversary of the activities of Martin Luther that gave rise to what became the Protestant Reformation. 2. Today, we will look at those activities and what followed in Germany and Switzerland until about 1555. 3. We will pay particular attention to Luther, but will also talk about other leaders of the Reformation, including Zwingli and Calvin. Slide 2 1. By 1500, the Renaissance was well underway in Italy and the Church was taking advantage of the extraordinary artistic talent coming out of Florence. 2. In 1499, a 24-year old Michelangelo had completed his famous Pietà, commissioned by a French cardinal for his burial chapel. Slide 3 1. In 1506, the Church began rebuilding St. Peter’s Basilica into the magnificent structure it is today. 2. To help pay for such masterpieces, the Church had become a huge commercial enterprise, needing a lot of money. 3. In 1476, Pope Sixtus IV had created a new market for indulgences by “permit[ing] the living to buy and apply indulgences to deceased loved ones assumed to be suffering in purgatory for unrepented sins.” Ozment, The Age of Reform: 1250-1550 at 217. 4. By the time Leo X became Pope in 1513, “it is estimated that there were some two thousand marketable Church jobs, which were literally sold over the counter at the Vatican; even a cardinal’s hat might go to the highest bidder.” Bokenkotter, A Concise History of the Catholic Church at 198.

  • Calvinism and the Arts Susan Hardman Moore
    T Calvinism and the Arts Susan Hardman Moore In 1540 Calvin wrote to a young student to praise his devotion to study, but also to deliver a warning: ‘Those who seek in scholarship nothing more than an honoured occupation with which to beguile the tedium of idleness I would compare to those who pass their lives looking at paintings.’ This spur-of-the-moment remark, committed to paper as Calvin settled down to answer letters (as he did everyday), is revealing. Calvin backed up his opinion that study for its own sake is pointless with an unfavourable reference to those ‘who pass their lives looking at paintings’.1 Calvin: austere, hostile to the arts? Calvinism: corrosive to human creativity and delight in beauty? Calvin’s reputation for austerity, some suggest, stems in part from his context in Geneva, where the strife- torn citizens were too hard pressed and poor to support patronage of the arts in the style of wealthy Basle, or of the kind Luther enjoyed in Wittenberg.2 To counter Calvin’s dour reputation, scholars highlight his affirmation of the arts: ‘I am not gripped by the superstition of thinking absolutely no images permissible […] sculpture and painting are gifts of God’;3 ‘among other things fit to recreate man and give him pleasure, music is either first or one of the principal […] we must value it as a gift of God’.4 Calvin’s writings also show appreciation of the splendours of Creation. In the natural world, God ‘shows his glory to us, whenever and wherever we cast our gaze’.5 For Calvin, God’s glorious gift of beauty shows – like his gifts of food and wine – how God gives not simply what is needed, but what will stir up ‘delight and good cheer’, ‘gladden the heart’.6 Calvin was in fact quite a bon vivant who enjoyed meals with friends and colleagues; he particularly liked fish, fresh from Lake Geneva.

Dr. Jack Sin (HP: 9116 0948) William Farel – The Uncompromising Swiss Reformer of Geneva (1489 – 1565) Introduction Hebrews11:32-34, ‘And what shall I more say? for the time would fail me to tell of Gedeon, and of Barak, and of Samson, and of Jephthae; of David also, and Samuel, and of the prophets:Who through faith subdued kingdoms, wrought righteousness, obtained promises, stopped the mouths of lions. Quenched the violence of fire, escaped the edge of the sword, out of weakness were made strong, waxed valiant in fight, turned to flight the armies of the aliens.’ There are men who have, by the will of God blazed a trail and changed the course of history for cites or even nations. Our recent trip to Geneva, Switzerland has given me a renewed interest in one man who made a lasting spiritual impact for Christ in this second largest city of Switzerland in the 16th century. His Background Guillaume Farel (1489 – 1565) was a spiritual game changer as we will say today who impacted his people by the powerful teaching of the Word and the expository preaching of the Gospel of Christ during the 16th century when many were still hostile to sound true religion being blinded by the deception of the medieval church.

  • Laurent Brouilly Escultor Jean
    Laurent brouilly escultor jean Continue In the 1850s, Dr. Eduard Landowski left Poland and moved to France. He had six children, of whom Paul was the youngest. In 1882, two of Paul's parents died, and he and his brothers became under the care of their uncle Paul Landowski in a small apartment in Paris. When his uncle died, his older brother, Ladislas, took over his brothers while studying medicine. When Paul was only five years old, he suffered a temporary bout of blindness, during which he became fascinated with the shape of bread, so by the time he left school, he had two passions: sculpture and literature. His first sculpture of Saint Blandina was made in the bread oven of Chesi-sur-Marne, where he worked during the school holidays. He also wrote plays, poems and kept notebooks about the great literary works he read. In 1893, Paul attended the Academy of the Julian School of Fine Arts in addition to spending some time at the Faculty of Medicine, where he was tasked with sketching dismembered bodies. By the end of the century Paul's work began to become famous, and he received prestigious awards. He won the Rome Prize in 1900 with his statue of David. He spent a season in Italy, especially at Villa m'dicis, the Academy of Francoise in Rome. In 1906 he returned to France and moved to a workshop in Boulogne-sur-Seine. In 1907 he married Jeniviv Neno and had two children, Nadine and Jean-Max. Both died in 1943 fighting for their country.
