  • Catholic Shrines in Chennai, India: the Politics of Renewal and Apostolic Legacy
    CATHOLIC SHRINES IN CHENNAI, INDIA: THE POLITICS OF RENEWAL AND APOSTOLIC LEGACY BY THOMAS CHARLES NAGY A thesis submitted to the Victoria University of Wellington in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Religious Studies Victoria University of Wellington (2014) Abstract This thesis investigates the phenomenon of Catholic renewal in India by focussing on various Roman Catholic churches and shrines located in Chennai, a large city in South India where activities concerning saintal revival and shrinal development have taken place in the recent past. The thesis tracks the changing local significance of St. Thomas the Apostle, who according to local legend, was martyred and buried in Chennai. In particular, it details the efforts of the Church hierarchy in Chennai to bring about a revival of devotion to St. Thomas. In doing this, it covers a wide range of issues pertinent to the study of contemporary Indian Christianity, such as Indian Catholic identity, Indian Christian indigeneity and Hindu nationalism, as well as the marketing of St. Thomas and Catholicism within South India. The thesis argues that the Roman Catholic renewal and ―revival‖ of St. Thomas in Chennai is largely a Church-driven hierarchal movement that was specifically initiated for the purpose of Catholic evangelization and missionization in India. Furthermore, it is clear that the local Church‘s strategy of shrinal development and marketing encompasses Catholic parishes and shrines throughout Chennai‘s metropolitan area, and thus, is not just limited to those sites associated with St. Thomas‘s Apostolic legacy. i Acknowledgements This thesis is dedicated to the memory of my father Richard M.

  • The Krk Diocese
    THE KRK DIOCESE THE ISLES SHALL WAIT FOR HIS TEACHINGS O I R E T S I IN M T I E N IO ORAT FOREWORD The centuries-long presence of Christianity on the islands of the Krk Diocese is deeply rooted in the life and culture of its population, which has been subject to a succession of various social orders during the course of history. Until the year 1828, there were three dioceses within this territory: Krk, Osor and Rab. The presence of a bishop and his relationship with the people had a strong impact upon spiritual formation and identity. The pas- tors of the small dioceses of the Kvarner Islands demonstrated magna- nimity and openness of spirit toward the beautiful and modern, while at the same time listening to the “pulse” of the people, incorporating their language in worship. The beauty of handwritten and illuminated Glagolitic missals, psalters and antiphonals greatly enriched the corpus of liturgical literature traditionally written in Latin. Christian culture, both spiritual and material, is reflected here in the arts of painting, architecture, literature, poetry and music. This is a Church distinguished by its priests and religious, especially the Benedictines and Franciscans, including those with the reputation of saintliness, who have played exceptional historical roles in the raising and fostering of national consciousness, enhancement of the quality of life, education in moral principles, and the creation and safeguarding of the cultural heritage. These values provided a firm foundation for assuring the survival of this nation under changing conditions, not infrequently im- posed by fire and sword.

  • Mediating Relationships: Social Media, Lay Catholics, and Church Hierarchy
    Mediating Relationships: Social Media, Lay Catholics, and Church Hierarchy A dissertation presented to the faculty of the Scripps College of Communication of Ohio University In partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree Doctor of Philosophy Mary Catherine Kennedy December 2014 © 2014 Mary Catherine Kennedy. All Rights Reserved. This dissertation titled Mediating Relationships: Social Media, Lay Catholics, and Church Hierarchy by MARY CATHERINE KENNEDY has been approved for the School of Media Arts and Studies and the Scripps College of Communication by Gregory D. Newton Associate Professor of Media Arts and Studies Scott Titsworth Dean, Scripps College of Communication ii ABSTRACT KENNEDY, MARY CATHERINE, Ph.D., December 2014, Mass Communication Mediating Relationships: Social Media, Lay Catholics, and Church Hierarchy. Director of Dissertation: Gregory D. Newton This study represents one of the first forays into how the Catholic Church is using social media for organizational purposes. Through the lens of Jenkins’s (2006) theory of convergence culture, Fisher’s (1985; 1999) narrative paradigm, the public relations strategies surrounding relationship maintenance (Ledingham and Bruning, 1998), and Turner’s (1969) liminality, this study examined how lay Catholics and members of Church hierarchy within the Diocese of Browntown use social media space for religious dialogue and for connecting with one another. The findings suggest that there is desire for connectivity among lay Catholics and parish priests and that social media space does provide a great avenue to foster these connections, but the connections are very slow to be made at this time. In light of the Social Age (Azua, 2010), religious institutions, and most notably the Catholic Church, have been making efforts to use social media to harness the faith of their flock.

  • Byzantine Critiques of Monasticism in the Twelfth Century
    A “Truly Unmonastic Way of Life”: Byzantine Critiques of Monasticism in the Twelfth Century DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Hannah Elizabeth Ewing Graduate Program in History The Ohio State University 2014 Dissertation Committee: Professor Timothy Gregory, Advisor Professor Anthony Kaldellis Professor Alison I. Beach Copyright by Hannah Elizabeth Ewing 2014 Abstract This dissertation examines twelfth-century Byzantine writings on monasticism and holy men to illuminate monastic critiques during this period. Drawing upon close readings of texts from a range of twelfth-century voices, it processes both highly biased literary evidence and the limited documentary evidence from the period. In contextualizing the complaints about monks and reforms suggested for monasticism, as found in the writings of the intellectual and administrative elites of the empire, both secular and ecclesiastical, this study shows how monasticism did not fit so well in the world of twelfth-century Byzantium as it did with that of the preceding centuries. This was largely on account of developments in the role and operation of the church and the rise of alternative cultural models that were more critical of traditional ascetic sanctity. This project demonstrates the extent to which twelfth-century Byzantine society and culture had changed since the monastic heyday of the tenth century and contributes toward a deeper understanding of Byzantine monasticism in an under-researched period of the institution. ii Dedication This dissertation is dedicated to my family, and most especially to my parents. iii Acknowledgments This dissertation is indebted to the assistance, advice, and support given by Anthony Kaldellis, Tim Gregory, and Alison Beach.

  • Goddard Wills 1606-1809
    Goddard Wills COMPILED BY RAINALD W. KNIGHTLEY GODDARD, LICENTIATE OF THE ROYAL INSTITUTE OF BRITISH ARCHITECTS. [REPRINTED FROM "MISCELLANEA GENEALOGICA ET HERALDICA"] LONDON: MITCHELL HUGHES AND CLARKE, 140 WARDOUR STREET, W. 1910. Rainald William Knightley Goddard Electronically prepared edition - January 2005. This edition has been transcribed using optical character recognition (OCR) from an poor quality copy of the reprinted publication, as a consequence there may be errors in addition to those in the original print and its subsequent reprint. The slightly odd pagination is to ensure that the original index page numbers correspond accurately to their referenced pages. It should be also noted that in the copy used for this transcription that the use of abbreviations is very inconsistent, as is the use of superscript characters! However, the current editor has attempted to make this a true copy by repeating those idiosyncrasies, which must have made the original typesetting a nightmare for the publisher. Additionally, consistent spelling is a 20th century phenomena, so the “quaint” spelling used in the original copy has been followed throughout this edition, making the automatic spellchecker virtually useless. Document search engines will also be very unreliable. The only known addition to the previously published version is the appendix of endnotes for interpretation of some of the now more obscure terms used in the wills. This collection of wills seems to be fairly haphazard and is only a small proportion of the Goddard wills presently available. This collection is generally only from the southern half of England and the purpose behind the collection is not obvious.
