  • The Magisterium of the Faculty of Theology of Paris in the Seventeenth Century
    Theological Studies 53 (1992) THE MAGISTERIUM OF THE FACULTY OF THEOLOGY OF PARIS IN THE SEVENTEENTH CENTURY JACQUES M. GRES-GAYER Catholic University of America S THEOLOGIANS know well, the term "magisterium" denotes the ex­ A ercise of teaching authority in the Catholic Church.1 The transfer of this teaching authority from those who had acquired knowledge to those who received power2 was a long, gradual, and complicated pro­ cess, the history of which has only partially been written. Some sig­ nificant elements of this history have been overlooked, impairing a full appreciation of one of the most significant semantic shifts in Catholic ecclesiology. One might well ascribe this mutation to the impetus of the Triden­ tine renewal and the "second Roman centralization" it fostered.3 It would be simplistic, however, to assume that this desire by the hier­ archy to control better the exposition of doctrine4 was never chal­ lenged. There were serious resistances that reveal the complexity of the issue, as the case of the Faculty of Theology of Paris during the seventeenth century abundantly shows. 1 F. A.

  • The Unigenitus of Clement XI
    Theological Studies 49 (1988) THE UNIGÉNITOS OF CLEMENT XI: A FRESH LOOK AT THE ISSUES JACQUES M. GRES-GAYER The Catholic University of America HERE is an enigma about Unigenitus, the ill-fated bull issued by Pope TClement XI (1713) against the resurgence of Jansenism. If the Jansenist movement in general has continued to attract scholars, whose recent contributions are changing perspectives,1 the constitution that condemned 101 "Jansenist propositions" extracted from the Réflexions morales was until recently left scrupulously untouched. It seemed taken for granted as an inevitable pivot—either a terminus ad quern, the logical conclusion of a century of theological and political disputes, or a terminus a quo, the origin of a movement of rebellion that eventually developed into a revolution.2 In other words, it was considered more a catalyst or an excuse for a latent social and political conflict than its real cause; hence the interest manifested in its prolegomena or later development rather than in the document itself. It was the document itself, however, the solemn exercise of the papal magisterium, that stimulated what was then perceived as the major crisis in Catholic history. The animosities, the political schemes, and the negotiations which accompanied its preparation, the uproar, the renewed negotiations, and the conflicts which followed its publication, suggest that there was more to this document than a collection of 101 condemned extracts from a spiritual book. But what was Unigenitus all about? In what appears to be a healthy reaction to a quasi-exclusive emphasis on the social and political elements of the conflicts surrounding the bull, major scholars of Jansenism have lately advocated an approach that 1 See the review article by William H.

It has been accepted for inclusion in Vincentian Digital Books by an authorized administrator of Via Sapientiae. For more information, please contact [email protected]. With his insightful analysis of the Funeral Oration of St. Vincent de Paul, Rev. Udovic, in three introductory chapters, lays the groundwork for the reading of the actual Oration, placing it in the context of the history of Church and State in the seventeenth century. He shows also how Maupas du Tour carefully crafted his panegyric to avoid the censure of church authorities in his depiction of Vincent de Paul and his works, while, at the same time, artfully giving the Crown, Mazarin, and the nobles a place of honor in the text. Copious illustrations of significant persons and places give life to the book. A must for any serious study of Vincentian historiography. —Marie Poole, D.C. Historian and Author; Editor of Vincent de Paul: Correspondence, Conferences, Documents Everyone with an interest in Vincent de Paul will welcome this English translation of Maupas du Tour’s funeral oration.

Cambridge and New York: Cambridge University Press, 2011. xiii + 273 pp. Notes, bibliography, and index. $115.00 U.S. (hb). ISBN: 9781107000452. Review by Linda Lierheimer, Hawaii Pacific University. In 1709, twenty-two elderly nuns at Port-Royal-des-Champs were dispersed and their convent suppressed on the orders of the king. Some months later, the convent was razed to the ground. What led Louis XIV to destroy this ancient abbey that had survived for almost 500 years? This is the central question that Daniella Kostroun poses in her important and ground-breaking study of the history of the Port-Royal nuns from the 1609 through 1709 and their central role in the Jansenist controversy. The Jansenist controversy, which began in the 1640s, centered on the writings of Cornelius Jansen, a Dutch theologian, about the nature of grace and free will. What began as a theological quarrel ended as a political struggle that challenged the authority of the absolute monarchy and paved the way for the French Revolution. Until now, scholars have focused primarily on the men associated with Port-Royal, such as Antoine Arnauld and Blaise Pascal, and have paid scant attention to the nuns. This book is the first comprehensive study of the Port-Royal nuns, which is astonishing, considering the extensive historiography on Jansenism and its centrality to the religious and political history of seventeenth and eighteenth-century France.

  • A Formula for Disobedience: Jansenism, Gender, and the Feminist Paradox*
    A Formula for Disobedience: Jansenism, Gender, and the Feminist Paradox* Daniella Kostroun Stonehill College On the morning of June 10, 1664, the archbishop of Paris, Hardouin de Pe´- re´fixe, met with Marguerite de Sainte-Gertrude Dupre´, a nun at the convent of Port Royal de Paris, for a one-on-one conversation. His purpose for this meet- ing was to change Dupre´’s mind about her refusal to sign a formula con- demning the Augustinus (1640), a theological study by Cornelius Jansen, the late bishop of Ypres. According to Dupre´’s own account, the archbishop began the interview by offering her a chair and expressing his confidence that he could ease her doubts. He asked her, “Why, my sister, can you not sign? One must not say that one will not do something out of stubbornness, one must have one’s reasons; ah, tell them to me.”1 When Dupre´ responded, “It would not be right, Monsignor, to fail in what you wish from us without reason, and if my conscience would allow me ...,”2 he interrupted her abruptly: “My conscience . my conscience! Does your conscience permit you to disobey * Research for this article was supported by the Erasmus Institute of the University of Notre Dame and the Center for Seventeenth- and Eighteenth-Century Studies at the University of California, Los Angeles.

    THE CATHOLIC UNIVERSITY OF AMERICA An Examination of the Foundation and Activation of the Cooperation of Laity and Pastors in the Munus Docendi in Catechesis according to Canon 776 A DISSERTATION Submitted to the Faculty of the School of Canon Law Of The Catholic University of America In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements For the Degree Doctor in Canon Law By Zabrina R. Decker Washington, D.C. 2016 An Examination of the Foundation and Activation of the Cooperation of Laity and Pastors in the Munus Docendi in Catechesis according to Canon 776 Zabrina R. Decker, J.C.D. Director: Rev. Robert J. Kaslyn, S.J., J.C.D. Canon 776 of the 1983 Code of Canon Law establishes the obligation of the pastor to provide catechetical formation and responsibility of laity to cooperate in such formation.1 This study uniquely focuses on the foundation and activation of the cooperation of the lay Christian faithful with pastors in catechesis. Such cooperation derives from baptism (both the right to witness to the gospel message [c. 211] and the correlative obligation of suitable preparation to exercise that right [c. 229]). Chapter one establishes baptism as the canonical foundation for incorporation, personhood and catechetical responsibility in the Church. From this constitutive basis, chapter two presents the ecclesiology of the sanctifying, governing and teaching (catechetical) mission of the Church for both laity and pastors. Conciliar, ecclesial and canonical definitions of catechesis are the focus of chapter three. Chapter four explores the definition of the lay Christian faithful as derived from their ontological status in baptism.

  • Animals As Symbols of Heretics in Latin European Literature and Art from the 9Th to the 16Th Century
    Quart 2018, 9 PL ISSN 1896-4133 [s. 3-19] Animals as symbols of heretics in Latin European literature and art from the 9th to the 16th century Joanna Dobkowska-Kubacka University of Lodz umerous medieval unorthodox Christian movements, charis- � 1 See J.

This was reflected in liter- ature and art (allegorical performances, narrative scenes based on the legends of saints), where to the character of a heretic the role of an opponent was assigned: discussing, fighting and opposing church authorities, or already defeated, ashamed and punished. This role determined the choice of the iconographic formula1. To some extent it also decided on the shape of animal symbolism, but in the latter more emphasis was placed on the expression of hidden intentions and mental traits attributed to heretics, and the main inspiration were quotations from the Bible, including the verse “Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves” (Matthew 7:15). By associating the terms sheep- wolves, shepherd-herd, this symbolism had to be particularly close to shepherding peoples in antiquity, and also in the Middle Ages it did not lose its intelligibility. The image of a wolf kidnapping sheep from the herd could arouse great emotions due to the sense of real danger, as well as due to the traditional hostility towards wolves and their image as a symbol of evil powers or even Satan himself.
