    ANYONE WHO ADHERES TO THE DOCTRINES OF FR. FEENEY IS BARRED FROM RECEIVING THE SACRAMENTS IN THIS CHAPEL. In the 1940’s, Fr. Leonard Feeney S.J. promoted the heresy that there was no such thing as baptism of blood or baptism of desire. Fr. Feeney’s teaching is contrary to the universal ordinary magisterium of the Catholic Church. It was condemned in 1949 by the Most Holy Trinity Seminary Holy Office. All Catholics are bound under pain of mortal sin to give assent to the teachings of the Holy Office. A number of lay Catholics mistakenly adhere to this heresy, falsely thinking that it is the teaching of the Catholic Church. ! Pre-Vatican II Roman Catholicism !

Manchester: Manchester University Press, 2015. xvi + 309 pp. Figures, tables, map, notes, bibliography, index. $120.00 U.S. (hb). ISBN 978-0-7190-9140-7; $34.95 U.S. (pb). ISBN 978-1-5261-0654-4; $34.95 U.S. (eb). ISBN 978-1-7849-9189-0. Review by John J. Contreni, Purdue University Hincmar served as archbishop of Reims from 845 to his death in 882. Although little known outside the world of modern Carolingian scholarship, he was the ninth century’s Cardinal Richelieu, albeit a much more prolific author and, one suspects, a more committed churchman. He cut a giant swath through ninth-century ecclesiastical and political history, serving with (never under) four successive West Frankish monarchs. Born sometime during the first decade of the century during the reign of Emperor Charlemagne (768-814), he died fleeing Viking marauders with his church’s treasures in a changed world ruled by a congeries of small kings and fractious warlords. As Rachel Stone states in her meaty introduction to this collection, Hincmar’s impact was “surprisingly slight” (p. 27). We study his voluminous and varied written legacy (history, law, hagiography, poetry, correspondence, prescriptive documents of all sorts, opinions on all that mattered) primarily to gain insight into his vision of Carolingian society and to the changing world around him. This “life and works” collection aims to bring together between two covers recent work on many facets of the archbishop’s career to counter-balance the potential idiosyncrasy of a single-author study.

  • Practicing Love of God in Medieval Jerusalem, Gaul and Saxony
    he collection of essays presented in “Devotional Cross-Roads: Practicing Love of God in Medieval Gaul, Jerusalem, and Saxony” investigates test case witnesses of TChristian devotion and patronage from Late Antiquity to the Late Middle Ages, set in and between the Eastern and Western Mediterranean, as well as Gaul and the regions north of the Alps. Devotional practice and love of God refer to people – mostly from the lay and religious elite –, ideas, copies of texts, images, and material objects, such as relics and reliquaries. The wide geographic borders and time span are used here to illustrate a broad picture composed around questions of worship, identity, reli- gious affiliation and gender. Among the diversity of cases, the studies presented in this volume exemplify recurring themes, which occupied the Christian believer, such as the veneration of the Cross, translation of architecture, pilgrimage and patronage, emergence of iconography and devotional patterns. These essays are representing the research results of the project “Practicing Love of God: Comparing Women’s and Men’s Practice in Medieval Saxony” guided by the art historian Galit Noga-Banai, The Hebrew University of Jerusalem, and the histori- an Hedwig Röckelein, Georg-August-University Göttingen. This project was running from 2013 to 2018 within the Niedersachsen-Israeli Program and financed by the State of Lower Saxony.

After their meeting, they placed an order in Brussels, and the work was finished in March 1478. The churchwardens again travelled to Brussels to settle the payment, and the retable was shipped to Zoutleeuw via Mechelen.1 The subject and the style, as well as the presence of Brussels quality marks on both the sculpture and the case of the oldest retable preserved in the Zoutleeuw church today (fig. 8), confirm that it is the very same one that was commissioned in 1476.2 Saint Leonard, the Christian hero of the altarpiece, lived in Merovingian France around the year 500. His hagiography identi- fies his parents as courtiers to King Clovis and states that he had been baptized and instructed in Christian faith by Saint Remigius, archbishop of Reims. Leonard quickly won Clovis’ goodwill, and was granted many favors by him. Not only was he allowed to free the pris- oners he visited, he was also offered a bishopric. However, preferring solitude and prayer he refused the honor and instead went to live in a forest near Limoges, where he preached and worked miracles.
