Her brother, S, Hermes, on Aug. 28th, Authority :—The Acts of S. Alexander, which are Pope (May 3rd), by no means trustworthy.] HE legend ot S. Theodora, as contained in the apocryphal acts of S. Alexander, is as follows. the During reign of this great Pope, Hermes, of prefect the city, was converted to Christ with his wife, Exuperia, and his sister, Theodora, and all his house, to the number of twelve hundred souls. At that time Aurelian was governor of the city under the emperor Hadrian. No sooner did he hear of this marvellous conversion than he sent for Hermes, and ordered him mto the prisons of a tribune, named Quirinus. Hermes VOL IV. T * * 2 Lives of the Saints. rApnii. was now deserted by all his friends and servants. Theodora his sister was alone faithful. She went with him to prison, accompanied him to the tribunal, and was present at his tortures, encouraging him with her exhortations. Quirinus the tribune (March 30th), and his daughter, Balbina, were converted by the example of the brother and sister; and Balbina, having been healed of the king's evil by placing about her neck the chains of S. Peter, was baptized by S. Alexander (see March 31st). When S. Hermes had suffered for the faith, Theodora, assisted by Balbina, recovered his body, and gave it decent burial. When S. Balbina was arrested, she gave the chains of S. Peter into the custody of her friend, who was, however, called to follow her the very next day. When brought before Aurelian, she was asked what had become of the great wealth of her brother. She " answered, My brother's goods, and my own have been distributed among the poor, and now all that I have to give to my Lord Jesus Christ is this poor weak body of mine, which I yield up joyfully." This reply having irritated the magistrate, he ordered her to be beaten, and then executed. The Christians took up her body, and laid it in the cemetery on the Salarian way. Her body, extracted from this catacomb by Pope Alexander VII., was given by him to the Ursuline Con- vent at Caen. However, the Barnabites of Bologna claim to have her body in the Church of S. Paul, other portions of the relics being in the Church of All Saints, in the same town. * * * ^ April 1.1 6'. Walaric. % S. WALARIC, AB. OF LEUCONAY.

Authority : A life written originally by Abbot him at no distance of time this life Ragimbert, who succeeded great ; but has not reached us in its integrity, having been re-written by a monk of Luxeuil in the nth century.] Walaric, in French Valery, was a native of Auvergne, and his boyhood was spent among the old volcanic cones, and by the circular lakes that occupy the exhausted craters, pasturing his sheep. But there was something in the mountain scenery, a voice in the pine woods, that spoke to his soul, and bade it quiver, as the little spines of the fir tremble when the wind arises. He knew not for what he felt the stirring of his heart; whither the voice called him. The first strong desire in his childish breast was a craving to know his letters. And so, whilst his sheep browsed in the grass beside the black tarns, he laboured with a little slate and a book to learn to read and write. further he a and in the Then he went ; procured psalter, mountain pastures found place and opportunity to learn by heart the glorious psalms of the Shepherd-king. And now, in David's words, the deepest cravings of his soul found their utterance. He could not rest, but took refuge in a monastery where lived an uncle of his, and there he made rapid progress in virtue and knowledge. So great was his modesty, so sweet and gentle his disposition, that all his loved him ; he carried the freshness of moun- tain air, the sweetness of his mountain thyme, with him into the cloister. After some years, he went to the monastery of S. at Auxerre and stirred the Aunacharius, ; thence, by tidings that reached him of the saintly life led by the 3e * ^ Lives the Saiiits.

Walaric now laboured with the Blessed Eustace (March 29th), to collect the scattered sheep and replace them in the fold of Luxeuil, which they connived to persuade the seculars to vacate for them. And so time passed. Now after a while a monk named Waldelin felt called to undertake a mission to the heathen, and S.

    INFORMATION TO USERS This material was produced from a microfilm copy of the original document. While the most advanced technological means to photograph and reproduce this document have been used, the quality is heavily dependent upon the quality of the original submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help you understand markings or patterns which may appear on this reproduction. I.The sign or "target" for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is "Missing Page(s)". If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting thru an image and duplicating adjacent pages to insure you complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a large round black mark, it is an indication that the photographer suspected that the copy may have moved during exposure and thus cause a blurred image. You will find a good image of the page in the adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., was part of the material being photographed the photographer followed a definite method in "sectioning" the material. It is customary to begin photoing at the upper left hand corner of a large sheet and to continue photoing from left to right in equal sections with a small overlap. If necessary, sectioning is continued again — beginning below the first row and continuing on until complete. 4. The majority of users indicate that the textual content is of greatest value, however, a somewhat higher quality reproduction could be made from "photographs" if essential to the understanding of the dissertation.

  • A Handlist of Anglo-‐Latin Hagiography Through the Early Twelfth Century
    A HANDLIST OF ANGLO-LATIN HAGIOGRAPHY THROUGH THE EARLY TWELFTH CENTURY (FROM THEODORE OF TARSUS TO WILLIAM OF MALMESBURY) Thomas N. Hall The following list originated as a handout developed for a seminar on Anglo-Saxon Hagiography taught at the University of Notre Dame in Spring 2010. Its aim is to supply a provisional inventory, for classroom purposes, of all major known works of Latin hagiography (primarily saints’ Lives and miracle collections but also select sermons, hymns, and other texts that have saints as their subjects) written in Britain or by native British authors or by authors writing anywhere about British saints, from the time of Archbishop Theodore (602–690) to William of Malmesbury (ca. 1090–ca. 1143). The objective here is not to provide exhaustive bibliographical coverage for every single text and author but to offer a basic orientation to the corpus with the hope of stimulating further work. In most cases, only the best or most recent editions and translations are cited, along with the most important secondary scholarship as it has come to my attention, but scholarship published after 2010 is not included. Also not included are the Lives of eminent churchmen who were never canonized, e.g. Vita Gundulfi, ed. R. M. Thomson (Toronto, 1977). Fuller bibliography for many of these authors and texts can be found in BHL; Compendium Auctorum Latinorum Medii Aevi (500–1500), ed. Michael Lapidge, Gian Carlo Garfagnini, and Claudio Leonardi (Florence, 2003– ); Richard Sharpe’s Handlist of the Latin Writers of Great Britain and Ireland before 1540 (Turnhout, 1997); and in the case of Alcuin, Marie- Hélène Jullien and Françoise Perelman, Clavis Scriptorum Latinorum Medii Aevi.

  • The Tortures and Torments of the Christian Martyrs
    The Tortures and Torments of the Christian Martyrs (A Modern Edition) De SS. Martyrum Cruciatibus by Reverend Father Antonio Gallonio, translated from the Latin by A.R. Allison, 1591 Revised and Edited into Contemporary English by Geoffrey K. Mondello, Boston Catholic Journal. Copyright © 2013 All rights reserved. "Father Gallonio's work was intended for the edification of the Faithful, and was issued with the full authority and approbation of the Church." A. R. Allison Note: This translation by the Boston Catholic Journal has been edited for abstruse and confusing archaisms, needless redundancies, and rendered into Modern (American) English. It is our goal to render this important, historical document into an easily readable format. However, we encourage the reader to consult the following important link: Acta Martyrum for a necessary perspective on the important distinction between authentic Acta Matyrum, scholarly hagiography, and edifying historical literature. This does not pretend to be a scholarly edition, replete with footnotes and historical references. Indeed, the original vexes us with its inconsistent references, and the absence of any methodical attribution to the works or authors cited. However, it must be remembered that the present work is not offered to us as a compendium, or even a 1 work of scholarship. That is not its intended purpose. It is, however, intended to accompany the Roman Martyrology which the Boston Catholic Journal brings to you each day, in the way of supplementing the often abbreviated account of the Catholic Martyrs with an historical perspective and a deeper understanding of the suffering they endured for the sake of Christ, His Holy Catholic Church, and the Faith of our fathers which, in our own times, sadly, recedes from memory for the sake of temporizing our own Catholic Faith to accommodate the world at the cost of Christ.

  • Corporal Punishment in the Carolingian Empire 742-900
    STRATEGIES OF CORRECTION: CORPORAL PUNISHMENT IN THE CAROLINGIAN EMPIRE 742-900. A Dissertation Presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School of Cornell University In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy by Maximilian Peter McComb May 2018 © 2018 Maximilian Peter McComb STRATEGIES OF CORRECTION: CORPORAL PUNISHMENT IN THE CAROLINGIAN EMPIRE, 742-900 Maximilian Peter McComb, Ph. D. Cornell University 2018 My dissertation is a political and cultural history of corporal punishment in the Carolingian empire. I examine the shape and significance of discourses and representations of corporal punishment across various modes of ecclesiastical, royal, and monastic governance. I contextualize these discourses within contemporary understandings of power as a shared moral ministry as explored by scholars like Mayke De Jong. Within this concept of political power as a shared ministry, I argue that Carolingian corporal punishment was a communicative, symbolic that use the body of the condemned to express authority in a concrete sense. Physical punishment both materialized abstract discourses abstract about the responsibilities and prerogatives of official authority and provided ruling elites with a means to make this power visible to and felt by non-elites. Drawing upon the work of penal historians and theorists like Michel Foucault, Guy Gelter, and Philip Smith, I understand physical punishment as a multivalent phenomenon which performs various social and cultural functions. Disciplinary violence and the punitive alteration of the body functioned as a public spectacle which indexes an offender’s transgressive otherness through her or his punished body while making visible and repairing a society’s normative boundaries.
