    Marquette University e-Publications@Marquette English Faculty Research and Publications English, Department of 1-1-2012 Obsessing about the Catholic Other: Religion and the Secularization Process in Gothic Literature Diane Hoeveler Marquette University, [email protected] Published version. "Obsessing about the Catholic Other: Religion and the Secularization Process in Gothic Literature," in L'obsession à l'œuvre: littérature, cinéma et société en Grande-Bretagne. Eds. Jean- François Baiollon and Paul Veyret. Bourdeaux: CLIMAS, 2012: 15-32. Publisher Link. © 2012 CLIMAS. Used with permission. Obsessing about the Catholic Other: Religion and the Secularization Process in Gothic Literature Perhaps it was totally predictable that the past year has seen both the publication of a major book by Lennard Davis entitled Obsession!, as well as a new two player board game called "Obsession" in which one player wins by moving his ten rings along numbered slots. Interest in obsession, it would seem, is everywhere in high and low cultures. For Davis, obsession is both a cultural manifestation of what modernity has wrought, and a psychoanalytical phenomenon: in fact, he defines it as a recurring thought whose content has become disconnected from its original significance causing the dominance of repetitive mental intrusions (Davis 6). Recent studies have revealed that there are five broad categories of obsession: dirt and contamination, aggression, the placing of inanimate objects in order, sex, and finally religion2 Another recent study, however, claims that obsessive thoughts generally center on three main themes: the aggressive, the sexual, or the blasphemous (qtd. Davis 9). It is that last category - the blasphemous - that I think emerges in British gothic literature of the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries, particularly as seen in the persistent anti-Catholicism that plays such a central role in so many of those works (Radcliffe's The italian, Lewis's The Monk, and Maturin's Melmoth the Wanderer being only the most obvious).

  • Monday Eastertide Week 4 English Martyrs Monday 4 May 2020 Acts
    Monday Eastertide week 4 English Martyrs Monday 4 May 2020 Acts 7:55-60, Matthew 10:17-20 “The blood of the martyrs is the seed of the church.” So said Tertullian, a second/third century Christian writer. The feast of the “English Martyrs” celebrates those men and women, old and young, priests, lay, rich and poor, who witnessed to their faith in Jesus Christ, to the death. On this day we give thanks to God for their courage amidst persecution and their determination to not only practice the faith, but to teach and help others to deepen their faith in Christ. Catholics were denied the sacraments (does that sound familiar?) but unlike today, there was no online Masses, WhatsApp groups, Zoom prayer groups and Facebook pages to keep them together. They were kept together quite often by brave men and women of all walks of life. Men went abroad for formation; Jesuits to Rome, and secular priests to Douai in France to be formed and ordained. Then they came back, knowing that as a priest it was considered to be treason to step ashore. Then there were the men and women who sheltered the priests in their home and who accompanied them on their travels. This too was considered treason. Let’s look at a couple of examples: St. Henry Walpole was baptised and raised in the Church of England, but witnessing St. Edmund Campion’s martyrdom at Tyburn, London in 1581, he became a Catholic, and resolved to join the Jesuits. Following formation in Rome, he returned to England and was eventually arrested and martyred in York alongside another priest, Blessed Alexander Rawlins.

    Institute of Christ the King Sovereign Priest St. Edmund Campion Queen Elizabeth I understood that the priesthood is at the heart of the Catholic Church, so she hoped to destroy Catholicism in England by letting all the old priests die off while preventing the formation of new ones. Anti-Catholic legislation in many areas was increasing under Elizabeth. For example, the Act of Supremacy of 1559 required those holding public office and those studying at the universities to swear as follows: Saint Edmund Campion. The rope and knife indicate “I, A. B., do utterly testify and declare in my the means by which he was martyred. conscience that the Queen’s Highness is the only supreme governor of this realm, and of all other her Highness’s dominions and countries, as well in all spiritual or ecclesiastical things or causes, as temporal, and that no foreign prince, person, prelate, state or potentate hath or ought to have any jurisdiction, power, superiority, pre- eminence or authority ecclesiastical or spiritual within this realm; …” Many English Catholic academics left England and settled at the University at Douay (then in Spanish Netherlands, now in France) and it soon became a kind of Oxford in exile. Among them was William (later Cardinal) Allen, who in 1658 set up a seminary there for the formation of English priests. Further such seminaries were subsequently set up and began supplying priests for the English Mission. Many of them were martyred. The requirement for Oxford students to take the oath lasted until 1854. Edmund Campion (24 January 1540 - 1 December 1581) had been a brilliant scholar at St John’s College Oxford and later a charismatic and popular professor, known for his talent as an orator.

  • John Ingram's Verse and the Dissemination Of
    1 The writing on the wall? John Ingram’s verse and the dissemination of Catholic prison writing Alison Shell1 University College London, Gower Street, London WC1 6BT Email:[email protected] This article has been accepted for publication and will be published in revised form in British Catholic History, 33:1 (May 2016) The strong association between prison writing and writing on walls, whether by graffiti or carving, is as true of Tudor and Stuart England as of other times and places. Yet even if prison- writers associated themselves with the idea of writing on a wall, they need not have done so in reality. This article considers the topos in the writings and afterlife of the Catholic priest, poet and martyr John Ingram, and asks whether it is to be taken at face value. Ingram's verse, composed in Latin and mostly epigrammatic, survives in two contemporary manuscripts. The notion that the author carved his verses with a blunt knife on the walls of the Tower of London while awaiting death derives from a previous editorial interpretation of a prefatory sentence within the more authoritative manuscript of the two, traditionally held to be autograph. However, though several Tudor and Stuart inscriptions survive to this day on the walls of the Tower of London, no portions of Ingram's verse are among them, nor any inscriptions of similar length and complexity. Ingram might instead have written his verse down in the usual way, using wall-carving as a metaphor for the difficulty of writing verse when undergoing incarceration and torture.

The recent publication of a general Menology of the Society in different series, each bearing the title of the particular Assistancy to which the lives recorded in it belong, has suggested the combining of the Provinces which form the English Assistancy, under the com- prehensive title of a Menology of the English-Speaking Assistancy. In preparing this composite Menology, application has been made to the Superiors and historians of each Province treated of, and as Canada now forms part of the British Dominions, the records of the noble army of French Missionaries and Martyrs who have evangelized that country and watered it with their blood are also included. Besides thanking the various Fathers who have kindly supplied information, an especial acknowledgment is due to the compiler of the Menologies of the French and German Assistancies, for the favour readily granted of being permitted to complete with the aid of these the historical notes derived froni other sources.
