  • Paul Wake. 2008. “Writing from the Archive: Henry Garnet's
    Paul Wake. 2008. “Writing from the archive: Henry Garnet’s powder-plot letters and archival communication” Archival Science, 8:2: 69-84. Writing on psychoanalysis in The Postcard Jacques Derrida asks, what happens in the psychoanalytic deciphering of a text when the latter, the deciphered itself, already explicates itself? When it says more about itself than does the deciphering (a debt acknowledged by Freud more than once)? And especially when the deciphered text inscribes in itself additionally the scene of the deciphering? When the deciphered text deploys more force in placing onstage and setting adrift the analytic process itself… (Derrida 1987, p. 414) Directed here to the archive, the questions posed by the self-explicating text become questions of the ways in which the processes of archivization manifest themselves within records, “placing onstage” the mechanisms and functions of the archives in which they exist. In addressing these questions, which turn on archival “saying,” explication and deciphering, both archive and record will be figured in terms of communication, situating the record not in isolation but rather in the changing contexts of its activations. In approaching the archive in terms of the interactions between recorders, records, archivists and analyst-historians my understanding of the “communicative” record is easily summarised in terms of John Searle’s distinction between the “token” and the “message”: The unit of linguistic communication is not, as has generally been supposed, the symbol, word or sentence, or even the token of the symbol, word or sentence, but rather the production or issuance of the symbol or word or sentence in the performance of the speech act.

  • The Canonisation of the Forty Martyrs of England and Wales the Cause
    The Canonisation of the Forty Martyrs of England and Wales The cause for the canonisation of the Forty Martyrs of England and Wales, which eventually took place on 25 October 1970, had its roots in the mid-19th Century when, following the restoration of the Catholic hierarchy in England and Wales in 1850, Cardinal Nicholas Wiseman and Cardinal Henry Manning, successive Archbishops of Westminster from 1850 until 1892, led a campaign for the recognition of those who had been Martyred for the faith. Just a year previously, in 1849, Frederick William Faber had written the rousing hymn Faith of Our Fathers in memory of the Martyrs. Born and raised an Anglican, Faber converted and was ordained a Priest later becoming an Oratorian Father, the congregation founded by St Philip Neri to which St John Henry Newman also belonged. By 1935 nearly two hundred Reformation Martyrs had been beatified, earning the title ‘Blessed’, but only two, John Fisher and Thomas More, had been canonised; both on 19 May 1935 by Pope Pius XI. Following the end of the Second World War, the cause, which had been largely dormant for some years, was gradually revived and, in December 1960, the names of thirty four English and six Welsh Martyrs were submitted to the Sacred Congregation of Rites by Cardinal William Godfrey, Archbishop of Westminster. All of these had been Martyred between 1535 and 1679. The list of names was drawn up in consultation with the Bishops of England and Wales and an attempt was made to ensure the list reflected a spread of social status and religious rank, together with a geographical spread and the existence of a well-established devotion.

Joseph, M.A. UNIVERSITY OF DAYTON Dayton, Ohio August, 2016 SARUM USE AND DISUSE: A STUDY IN SOCIAL AND LITURGICAL HISTORY Name: Joseph, James Ryan APPROVED BY: __________________________________________ Michael S. Carter, Ph.D. Faculty Adviser Professor of History __________________________________________ William H. Johnston, Ph.D. Faculty Reader Professor of Religious Studies __________________________________________ Jennifer Speed, Ph.D. Faculty Reader Professor of Religious Studies __________________________________________ Daniel Speed Thompson, Ph.D. Chair of the Department of Religious Studies ii ABSTRACT SARUM USE AND DISUSE: A STUDY IN SOCIAL AND LITURGICAL HISTORY Name: Joseph, James R. University of Dayton Adviser: Dr. Michael S. Carter Academic study of the Sarum Use, or the Use of Salisbury, the dominant liturgical tradition of medieval England, has long been overshadowed by a perception of triviality and eccentric antiquarianism inherited from the nineteenth century. Further, the Sarum Use has been in relative disuse in the Roman Catholic Church since the early seventeenth century. Using primarily the research of Eamon Duffy and Richard Pfaff, this thesis seeks to readdress both of these aspects of the Sarum Use and argues that because of the unique history and experience of the English Church in the period following the English Reformation, the Sarum liturgy holds an important place in English religious history. The thesis argues for the revival of serious academic interest in Sarum itself as well as for the active renewal of the Sarum tradition for contemporary Catholic liturgical use within the context of the Church.

  • Ignacio De Loyola. on September 27, 1540, Pope Paulus III Gave Formal Approbation of the Society of Jesus by the Bull Regimini Militantis Ecclesiae
    Ignacio de Loyola. On September 27, 1540, Pope Paulus III gave formal approbation of the Society of Jesus by the bull Regimini militantis ecclesiae. With the Pope's signature the Society of Jesus, as a fully canonical religious order, had become a reality. On March 4, 1541, during Lent, the first Jesuits gathered to work in the constitutions. They agreed to choose a Superior General for life. The first election was very solemnly conducted on April 2, 1541.
