The Partnership Schools have annually outperformed Public schools, Charter schools and Regional Schools in terms of the Academic achievement of students. Our acceptance as a Partnership School reflects St. Charles school’s commitment to remain a leader for faithbased Catholic education in New York City.

  • Mary the Blessed Virgin
    January 1 – Mary the Blessed Virgin Mary is venerated with a special cult, called by St. Thomas Aquinas, hyperdulia, as the holiest of all creatures. The main events of her life are celebrated as liturgical feasts of the universal Church. Traditionally, she was declared the daughter of Sts. Joachim and Anne. Born in Jerusalem, Mary was presented in the Temple and took a vow of virginity. Living in Nazareth, Mary was visited by the archangel Gabriel, who announced to her that she would become the Mother of Jesus, by the Holy Spirit. She became betrothed to St. Joseph and went to visit her cousin, Elizabeth, who was bearing St. John the Baptist. Acknowledged by Elizabeth as the Mother of God, Mary intoned the Magnificat. When Emperor Augustus declared a census throughout the vast Roman Empire, Mary and St. Joseph went to Bethlehem where he was born, as he belonged to the House of David. There Mary gave birth to Jesus and was visited by the Three Kings. Mary and Joseph presented Jesus in the Temple, where St. Simeon rejoiced and Mary received word of sorrows to come later. Warned to flee, St. Joseph and Mary went to Egypt to escape the wrath of King Herod. They remained in Egypt until King Herod died and then returned to Nazareth. Nothing is known of Mary's life during the next years except for a visit to the Temple of Jerusalem, at which time Mary and Joseph sought the young Jesus, who was in the Temple with the learned elders. The first recorded miracle of Jesus was performed at a wedding in Cana, and Mary was instrumental in calling Christ's attention to the need.

  • Wielding the Spiritual Sword Again: Some Considerations on Neo

This system is seen here as being ruled by an empty norm: power is present, but it is disembodied. Therefore, the entire international order is open to uses and abuses by the most powerful actors in the international sphere, especially the power states. Furthermore, when combined with the fact that the modern world has been completely appropriated by humanity as a universal integrated whole, whoever falls outside the dominant normative structure is, in effect, no longer even part of humanity. To analyse the means and effects of such tension between the universal and the particular, this article draws analogies with the medieval struggle between the secular and the religious authorities. It is argued that currently one can observe a return of the Respublica Christiana in the form of a rights-centred ‘international community’. And yet, contrary to earlier scholarly attempts to draw analogies with the Middle Ages, this return is seen here as a dangerous employment of political theology. Keywords Humanitarian intervention, human rights, political theology, sovereignty Introduction This article explores the contemporary tendencies in international relations through recourse to the medieval theories of the interrelationship between the religious and secular powers.

  • Toward an Ecological Conversion: Ecospiritual Literacy for Developing Roman Catholic Ecological Education
    Toward an Ecological Conversion: Ecospiritual Literacy for Developing Roman Catholic Ecological Education by Youngmin Song A Thesis submitted to the Faculty of Theology of the University of St. Michael’s College and the Graduate Centre for Theological Studies of the Toronto School of Theology. In partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Theology awarded by the University of St. Michael’s College. © Copyright by Youngmin Song 2018 Toward an Ecological Conversion: Ecospiritual Literacy for Developing Roman Catholic Ecological Education Youngmin Song Doctor of Philosophy in Theology University of St. Michael’s College 2018 Abstract The root of the current ecological crisis is a spiritual one and demands a genuine ecological conversion. In response to this call, the dissertation attempts to develop a model of Roman Catholic ecological education which seeks an integral development of thoughts, feelings, and actions. For this purpose, the study proposes ecospiritual literacy as a conceptual foundation of Roman Catholic ecological education and develops its basic principles which collectively inspire ecological conversion. Based on an evolutionary cosmology which is concerned with both the physical and spiritual dimensions of the larger reality, the concept of ecospiritual literacy encourages learners to understand how they are deeply embedded within the larger world, to sense the divine sacredness which all of creation reveals, and to participate in their role for enhancing the sacred community of creation. With its emphasis on seeing the whole aspect of the larger reality, ecospiritual literacy enables Roman Catholic ecological education to highlight Earth as an active subject (i.e., as our primary teacher) that reveals ecological and spiritual messages.

    2018 HAWAII UNIVERSITY INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCES ARTS, HUMANITIES, SOCIAL SCIENCES & EDUCATION JANUARY 3 - 6, 2018 PRINCE WAIKIKI HOTEL, HONOLULU, HAWAII MATTHEW PARIS’S CHRONICA MAJORA AND ALLEGATIONS OF JEWISH RITUAL MURDER MEIER, DAVID DEPARTMENT OF SOCIAL SCIENCES DICKINSON STATE UNIVERSITY DICKINSON, NORTH DAKOTA Dr. David Meier Department of Social Sciences Dickinson State University Dickinson, North Dakota Matthew Paris’s Chronica Majora and Allegations of Jewish Ritual Murder Synopsis: Robert Nisbet recognized Matthew Paris as “admittedly one of the greatest historians, if not the greatest in his day.” Matthew provided “the most detailed record of events unparalleled in English medieval history” from 1236-1259. Within the chronicle, allegations of Jewish ritual murder rested alongside classical sources in various languages, including Greek, Latin, Arabic, and Hebrew. Matthew Paris’s Chronica Majora and Allegations of Jewish Ritual Murder David A. Meier, Dickinson State University Allegations of Jewish ritual murder in medieval European chronicles rested alongside classical sources in various languages, including Greek, Latin, Arabic, and Hebrew. Hartmann Schedel’s Weltchronik 1493 (2001) depicted Simon of Trent’s alleged murder by the local Jewish community in 1475 in a manner that mirrored alleged Jewish ritual murders in England in 1144 and 1255.1 Between 1144 and 1493, allegations of Jewish ritual murder spread and flourished. Matthew Paris’s Chronica Majora emerged at historical crossroads where allegations of Jewish ritual murder spread beyond England and into continental Europe. Before the century finished in 1290, England had expelled its Jewish population inspiring many regions on the continent to follow suit in the coming years.2 In offering a written record, chroniclers bridged narrative history from ancient times (largely Biblical) with contemporary culture, history, society, politics and nascent legal systems, employed, in turn, by both church and state in the High Middle Ages.

  • Saint Joan Script Glossary Compiled by Richard Rossi Italicized Definitions Have an Accompanying Picture Scene I
    1 Saint Joan Script Glossary Compiled by Richard Rossi Italicized definitions have an accompanying picture Scene I Meuse River: During the time of the play, this roughly North/South river indicated the border between the Holy Roman Empire and the Kingdom of France. Approximately the red line, with Lorraine as the tan county at the bottom right, and Champagne on the left. Lorraine: The Duchy of Upper Lorraine, ruled by the dynasty of Gérard de Châtenois, was de facto independent from the 10th to 15th centuries. Intersected by the Meuse and Moselle rivers, it had a great deal of trade and information passing through, which made it an enticing target. In 1431, a mere two years after the start of Saint Joan, the Duchy was ceded to the House of Anjou, specifically René I, from whom it was incorporated into France in 1480. Champagne: Under the rule of the Counts of Champagne until 1284, the marriage of Philip the Fair and Joan I of Navarre brought it under the royal domain. During the High Middle Ages (1000-1300), the County of Champagne was one of the most powerful fiefs in France, home to the largest financial and commercial markets in Western Europe. 2 Vaucouleurs Castle: The main defense of “the town that armed Joan of Arc” and the residence of Robert de Baudricourt. The unruined structures, including the gothic chapel on the right, were rebuilt during the 18th century. Robert de Baudricourt: (1400-1454) minor French nobility, the son of the chamberlain of the Duke of Bar (Liebald de Baudricourt).

  • I11 the Origin and Development
    I11 THE ORIGIN AND DEVELOPMENT OF THE NEWSPAPER HE printing press, the railway, the telegraph, and the Twireless have “put a girdle around the earth in forty minutes,” as Puck boasted he could do in Shakespeare’s day. But even before the discovery of printing, even in the Middle Ages, news sometimes traveled with remarkable rapidity. When Charles the Good of Flanders was murdered in 1127 at Bruges, the fact was known in London on the second day after the deed, being carried thither by merchants who fled the country at once. The same information reached Laon in Champagne by the evening of the second day, in this case through Flemish students resorting to the French schools. The mediaeval French poet, Chriten de Troyes, writing about 1150, tells us of a sudden quarrel between two knights which resulted in a challenge, and that word of the forth- coming conflict between them was so rapidly spread that the field was crowded with onlookers from miles around. The vagrom monk, the wandering friar, but above all, the pilgrim was a great dispenser of news in the Middle Ages. “The pilgrim was a recognized transmitter of news and letters were written in expectation of one of these stray travellers. The guest-house or hospitium, attached to a monastery was one of the chief channels by which intelligence of passing events was disseminated through the more se- questered parts of the country. Jerome in his epitaph on Fabiola observes : ‘In one summer Britain has learned what 14 1 142 Social History the Egyptian and Parthian have known in the spring.’ Theo- doret speaks to a similar purport.

  • HISTORY and HISTORIANS in MEDIEVAL EUROPE Tutor: Dr Marcus Bull Structure: 10 X 2 Hour Seminars, 1 X 5000 Word Essay, 1 X 2 Hour Exam Teaching Block: 1
    Special Subject HIST 33002: Special Subject (20 Credit Points) HISTORY AND HISTORIANS IN MEDIEVAL EUROPE Tutor: Dr Marcus Bull Structure: 10 x 2 hour seminars, 1 x 5000 word essay, 1 x 2 hour exam Teaching block: 1 This Special Subject looks at the writing of history in western medieval Europe: this is not only a fascinating and much-debated subject in its own right, it is also an excellent point of entry into many facets of medieval culture. The focus is on the period c.800- .c1200, though there will be opportunities to look at earlier and later material. The main areas covered are England and France, with attention also paid to Spain, Germany, and the Latin East. We can easily take narrative historical sources for granted, and we readily associate them with our period – the word ‘chronicle’ is something that the general public will have come across even if doesn’t know much else about the Middle Ages – but things aren’t that straightforward. History was never something that one formally learned in the Middle Ages; it never became a subject in its own right in the schools and universities alongside Theology or Law. But at the same time people did sit down and write histories, so they must have believed that there were other people interested in what they had to say. Almost all of the histories that have come down to us were the result of private interest and initiative. So why did people write histories? What sorts of past were they interested in, and what uses did the past serve? What sorts of influences and models did medieval historians use? What sorts of sources did they consult? How many medieval historians were eye- witness observers of what they wrote about, and what did being an ‘eye-witness’ actually involve? The unit benefits from the easy availability of many translated sources in a variety of genres: annals, chronicles, biographies, miracle collections, crusade and travel narratives, and visual materials.

  • Hegemony of an Empty Norm Ignas
    The Modern International Society: Hegemony of an Empty Norm Ignas Kalpokas, University of Nottingham School of Politics and International Relations Paper to be presented at the Political Studies Association Conference, Cardiff, 25-27 March 2013. In this paper it will be argued that the modern vision of the international system allows the creation of an absolute enemy, i.e. the one who falls outside the dominant discourse is not only excommunicated but also deprived of the status of a just opponent. The outsider here becomes a non-value, which could be easily disposed of Burchard, 2006: 31). Such a situation is not new. It is presumed that we are currently observing the return to the Medieval respublica Christiana, a religiously organised order with aspirations towards universality and homogeneity – a clear prototype of the modern theologico-political approach to global governance. It is the return of the respublica Christiana as the universal liberal community, albeit with a difference: if previously universal jurisdiction was embodied in particular religious authorities, then at present it is the rule of an empty norm. Therefore, it will be argued, the current international order could be seen as ruled by the new sacerdotium. During the early medieval period the secular power not only enjoyed significant influence on the church (with the pope being politically and militarily vulnerable) but also directly exercised important religious functions and the church was deeply immersed in secular affairs. It was only after the reform movement within the church gathered pace in the second half of the eleventh century that a radical separation was made and the question of primacy acquired an exceptional prominence, especially on behalf of the church.
