Frans Titelmans, the Congregation of Montaigu, and Biblical Scholarship
FRANS TITELMANS, THE CONGREGATION OF MONTAIGU, AND BIBLICAL SCHOLARSHIP Paolo Sartori In order to sketch a portrait of Frans Titelmans of Hasselt it is neces- sary to reexamine the main features of the Congregation of Montaigu, which was founded in Paris by Jan Standonck at the end of the fi fteenth century. Titelmans in fact received his higher education in the Leuven College of the Congregation. This experience infl uenced his whole approach to theology, even though he formally left the Congregation of Montaigu when, twenty-one years old, he became a Franciscan minor friar. A couple of years later he faced Erasmus in a short but challenging dispute about New Testament scholarship, which took place between 1527 and 1530.1 The Paris College of Montaigu had fallen into decay in the late quat- trocento. In 1477 Amâtre Chetart, principal of the College, asked Jan Standonck for help with the administration. A young man, aged thirty-four, and fresh from his licence in arts in Paris, Standonck came from Mechelen, midway between Brussels and Antwerp. He had grown up in a very poor family and studied in the schools of the Brethren of Common Life. He enrolled at the University of Leuven, but later moved to Paris, where he had to fi nd employment in order to survive, since he lacked any economic resources. He was employed as a servant in the Abbey of Sainte-Geneviève, which was next to the College of Montaigu. Chetart’s offer meant an advancement for Standonck, and when Chetart died in 1483, Standonck succeeded in his place. -
Sensory Piety As Social Intervention in a Mechelen Besloten Hofje

ISSN: 1949-9833 Sensory Piety as Social Intervention in a Mechelen Besloten Hofje Andrea Pearson Besloten hofjes compel sensory devotion, and sight provides the privileged point of entry into the works. Paradoxically, a female devotee from Mechelen, identified here as visually impaired, is represented in a wing hinged to one example. By prioritizing physical disability over spiritual interiority in the study of the hofje, this essay recalibrates sensory piety as socially persuasive. The investigation in turn complicates previous models for the production and reception of Besloten hofjes in general. Previously untapped archival and visual evidence reveals that the hofje was likely commissioned by the impaired woman’s parents, probably for the Onze-Lieve-Vrouwegasthuis (Hospital of Our Lady) in Mechelen, where she was professed. There, the hofje asserted a meritorious status in piety that claimed salvation for members of the familial triad, all three of whom were rendered spiritually suspect by the woman’s disability. -

Portier, Ph.D. In its analysis of mystical body of Christ theology in the twentieth century, this dissertation identifies three major streams of mystical body theology operative in the early part of the century: the Roman, the German-Romantic, and the French-Social- Liturgical. Delineating these three streams of mystical body theology sheds light on the diversity of scholarly positions concerning the heritage of mystical body theology, on its mid twentieth-century recession, as well as on Pope Pius XII’s 1943 encyclical, Mystici Corporis Christi, which enshrined “mystical body of Christ” in Catholic magisterial teaching. Further, it links the work of Virgil Michel and Louis-Marie Chauvet, two scholars remote from each other on several fronts, in the long, winding French stream. -

Chris Schabel* Terminology A search through the Universal Short Title Catalogue (USTC), WorldCat, Google Books, the SIEPM website,1 and other online sources for incunabula and early printed books revealed that by 1500 what we now call "Sentences commentaries" or "commentaries on the Sentences" by 26 authors had been printed in whole or in part close to 100 times.2 Nevertheless, according to these online sources, only ten printings by a mere three of these authors are entitled something like "commentaries": the Franciscan Richard of Mediavilla's Commentum was first published in 1473 and then four more times before 1500, the Franciscan Bonaventure's Commentarius came out twice in 1477 and then once more before the end of the century, and the Augustinian Giles of Rome's Commentum was printed in 1482 and again in 1492. -
Humanism As Civic Project the Collège De Guyenne 1533-1583
HUMANISM AS CIVIC PROJECT THE COLLÈGE DE GUYENNE 1533-1583 by Marjorie Irene Hopkins A Thesis presented to The University of Guelph In partial fulfilment of requirements for the degree of Doctorate of Philosophy in History Guelph, Ontario, Canada © Marjorie Irene Hopkins, September, 2016 ABSTRACT HUMANISM AS CIVIC PROJECT: THE COLLÈGE DE GUYENNE 1533-1583 Marjorie Hopkins Advisor: University of Guelph, 2016 Professor Peter A. Goddard Que disciplina adhuc observata in suo Burdigalen Gymnasio notior evadat, nec facile usquam depravetur. Thus, in 1583, the Jurade, the city council, of Bordeaux concluded its endorsement of the publication of Elie Vinet's Schola Aquitanica, the school programme of the Collège de Guyenne. This thesis examines the humanist programme at the Collège de Guyenne in Bordeaux from 1533 to 1583. Most studies of the Collège have focused on its foundation and institutional structure. Since Ernest Gaullieur's institutional history in 1874, research into Renaissance, Reformation, and educational history have made significant advancements, all of which shed additional light onto the Collège's history and its role as a source of civic identity in a growing national context. Additionally, the application of Pierre Bourdieu's concept of habitus grants insight into the social climate of academics in the sixteenth century. This thesis contributes to our knowledge of the Collège's and the regents' place in the development of Bordelais and French identity, but it also elucidates the regents' impact on the students who attended there, particularly Michel de Montaigne, a well-known writer who was apparently self-disclosing, whose education at the Collège shaped him into a prudent thinker with the capacity to see all sides of an issue. -

Maryks | orcid: 0000-0002-8401-4236 Independent Scholar, The Berkshires, MA, USA [email protected] Abstract This essay aims to analyze the hitherto neglected (or deliberately avoided?) link between De spiritualibus ascentionibus (On spiritual ascents) by Zerbolt of Zutphen (1367–1398) and the SpiritualExercises of Ignatius of Loyola (c. 1491–1556). Indeed, there is a more direct relationship between these two texts than between Ignatius’s Spiritual Exercises and the Exercitatorio spiritual by Abbot García Jiménez de Cisneros (1455– 1510) and the Imitatio Christi (Imitation of Christ) by Thomas à Kempis (c. 1380–1441), which has received much more attention in the existing literature. A careful synoptic reading of these works reveals not only an intriguing congruence between Zerbolt and Loyola in terms of the scope and definition of their works; the general structure and vocabulary; humanistic soteriology and optimistic anthropology of human will; the role of introspection in reforming inordinate affections and affective devotion; the role of examen of conscience (both daily and general); frequent sacramental confession and Communion; the role of spiritual guide; the use of the five senses and composi- tion of place as meditative techniques and importance of methodical mental prayer; and the centrality of imitation of Christ’s humanity, but also direct textual reciprocity. Zerbolt’s Spiritual Ascents appears to be a blueprint for Loyola’s Exercises. -

This thesis shares in this endeavor, but poses a new question about the relationship of empire to the maturation of the concept of representation, a concept that recent historical literature has shown to have been inextricably linked to the development of the concept of the state in the same period. The latest historians to have written on the subject have acknowledged that representation was first spoken of and exercised in monarchical and ecclesiastical settings, but these writers have not investigated the concept’s articulation within the political practices and theories of empires. This work thus serves to highlight the crucial role the concept played in the building of the Spanish overseas empire. -

SERVANT LEADERSHIP: THE DISTINCTIVE VIRTUE OF IGNATIAN EDUCATION SAMUEL BEIRÃO, S.J. BOSTON COLLEGE SCHOOL OF THEOLOGY AND MINISTRY STL THESIS 2018/2019 Acknowledgments Somewhere in God’s dream, when God decided to start creating the world and all that is contained in it, God knew we would meet and make our lives happier through friendship, admiration, and service to one another. In an endless chain of thanksgiving and praise, I see myself in the happiest of lives, called to praise, reverence, and serve God, the Church, and the World in the Society of Jesus. Therefore, there could be no other way to begin than to thank the Brothers with whom I have been walking alongside for the last twelve years. Most recently, to my Brothers from Saint Peter Faber Jesuit Community, especially those living in Xavier House, with whom I shared joys, prayers, and the bumps along the way. They have been the discrete presence and support behind these lines. Between the words, though, there is another presence: that of Professors Cristiano Casalini and Andrea Vicini, S.J., who generously advised, corrected, and supported me through this work. Both have become mentors and scholars I admire and to whom I am most in debt. And if in these following pages there is any agreement between nouns, verbs, and prepositions, and if the English is pleasant to read, I am most grateful to Simon Smith, S.J., and David Romero, S.J., who revised each line of the text. -

"LA FARCE DES THEOLOGASTRES": HUMANISM, HERESY, and the SORBONNE, 1523-1525 by Charles Garside, Jr
"LA FARCE DES THEOLOGASTRES": HUMANISM, HERESY, AND THE SORBONNE, 1523-1525 by Charles Garside, Jr. INTRODUCTION To Richard Bartholinus, Erasmus wrote from Antwerp a letter warm in praise of France. It was above all, he declared, the only country in all Christendom which was not infected with heresy.' The date was March 10, 1517. Slightly less than two years later, on February 14, 1519, the indefati- gable publisher John Froben wrote Martin Luther to tell him that We have sent six hundred cop~es[of your books] to France and Spaln: they are sold at Pans, and are even read and approved by the doctors of the Sorbonne, as certain of our fr~endshave assured us; for some of the moat learned say that they have hitherto missed amongthose who treat Scripture the same freedom that you show.' Four days later, Wolfgang Capito, one of Froben's readers, confirmed the exciting news from Basel.' Luther was understandably delighted. On the seventeenth of May a young Swiss student studying in Paris at the time informed his master that Luther's works were being bought and read "with open arms."4 Late in 1520, Heinrich Glareanus, another Swiss, could write to Zwingli on November 1 saying: "no other books are bought with such eagerness . one shop has sold 1,400 copies."S In June of that year, how- ever, Leo X had set the fisherman's seal to the bull Exsurge Domine enumerating forty-one errors in Luther's works and ordering that "the books of Martin Luther which contain these errors are to be examined and burned."h With the bull of excommunication which the Pope signed on January 3, 1521, the danger which Luther and his books posed to orthodoxy everywhere was made explicit; misunderstanding of any sort whatsoever was no longer possible or tolerable. -
