  • Patrocinium of Calasanz
    The Patrocinium of St. Joseph Calasanz November 27 Although the Feast of St. Joseph Calasanz is celebrated on August 25, this date often falls at the end of summer vacation for most Piarist Schools. As a result, the religious order has designated November 27, which is the day he opened Europe’s first free public school, as the Patrocinium, a special day to honor and celebrate St. Joseph Calasanz. Joseph was born on September 11, 1557 in a tiny village called Peralta de la Sal. He was a Spanish priest from Aragon, Spain, who went to Rome at the end of the sixteenth century and started schools for poor and homeless children. He also started a religious congregation to serve these schools which is today spread throughout the world. He was well educated in philosophy, law and theology at the Spanish universities of Estadilla, Lerida, and Valencia. His family initially did not support his religious calling. His father wanted him to marry and to continue the family, but after recovering from an illness which brought him close to death, Calasanz was ordained as a priest on December 17, 1583. He subsequently became vicar general of Tremp. He later relinquished much of his inheritance and resigned his vicariate. For the next ten years, he held various posts as a secretary, administrator and theologian in the Diocese of Albarracín in Spain. In 1592, Joseph went to Rome, where he became a theologian in the service of Cardinal Marcoantonio Colonna and a tutor to his nephew. He worked alongside St. Camillus de Lellis during the plague, which hit Rome at the time.

  • Religious Policy and Dissent in Socialist Hungary, 1974-1989. The
    Religious Policy and Dissent in Socialist Hungary, 1974-1989. The Case of the Bokor-movement By András Jobbágy Submitted to Central European University History Department In partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts Supervisor: Professor Nadia Al-Bagdadi Second Reader: Professor István Rév CEU eTD Collection Budapest, Hungary 2014 Statement of Copyright Copyright in the text of this thesis rests with the Author.

CEU eTD Collection 1 Notes on translation All of my primary sources and much of the secondary literature I use are in Hungarian. All translations were done by me; I only give a few expressions of the original language in the main text. CEU eTD Collection 2 Abstract The thesis investigates religious policy, church-state relationships and dissent in late Kádárist Hungary. Firstly, by pointing out the interconnectedness between the ideology of the Catholic grass-root Bokor-movement and the established religious political context of the 1970s and 1980s, the thesis argues that the Bokor can be considered as a religiously expressed form of political dissent. Secondly, the thesis analyzes the perspective of the party-state regarding the Bokor- movement, and argues that the applied mechanisms of repression served the political cause of keeping the unity of the Catholic Church intact under the authority of the Hungarian episcopacy.

  • Memorials of St. Louis and St. Joseph Calasanz Homily of Bishop John Barres St
    1 Memorials of St. Louis and St. Joseph Calasanz Homily of Bishop John Barres St. Agnes Cathedral August 25, 2021 Today we celebrate the Memorials of St. Louis IXth of France (1214-1270) and St. Joseph Calasanz (1557-1648). Like all the saints, St. Louis and St. Joseph Calasanz teach us, with St. Paul in his first Letter to the Thessalonians, “to give thanKs to God unceasingly, that, in receiving the word of God from hearing us, you received it not as the word of men, but as it truly is, the word of God, which is now at worK in you who believe.” These saints also teach us to allow the Holy Spirit, as expressed in Matthew 23, to break through our hypocrisies and lead us to deeper sincerity, charity, integrity and coherence in our Catholic witness to the world. The Office of Readings from the Liturgy of the Hours for both Memorials reveal Key charisms for the mission of the Church in these two great saints that we are called to appreciate and live ourselves. For St. Louis, the King of France and the father of eleven children, the Office of Readings presents an excerpt from the Spiritual Testament of St. Louis which is addressed to one of his sons. St. Louis writes: “Dearest son, I give you every blessing that a loving father can give a son. May the three Persons of the Holy Trinity and all the saints protect you from every evil. And may the Lord give you the grace to do his will so that he may be served and honored through you, that in the next life we may together come to see him, love him and praise him unceasingly.

  • On the Work of the Piarist Order in South Moravia in the 19Th Century
    44 Czech-Polish Historical and Pedagogical Journal On the Work of the Piarist Order in South Moravia in the 19th Century Miroslav Jireček / e-mail: [email protected] Department of History, Faculty of Education, Masaryk University, Brno Jireček, M. (2018). On the Work of the Piarist Order in South Moravia in the 19th Century. Czech-Polish Historical and Pedagogical Journal, 10/1, 44–64. https://doi.org/10.5817/cphpj-2018-005 This paper1 aims to give an account of the work of the Piarist Order in South Moravia in the 19th century. Attention is devoted principally to education which was (and remains) the fundamental area of interest to the Piarist Order. The Piarists operated in Mikulov, Strážnice, Hustopeče and Kyjov in South Moravia in the 19th century. They also worked for a certain time at the Episcopal Philosophical Institute in Brno. This paper shows the diversity of the activities of the order in the first half of the 19th century and its subsequent decline in the second half of the century. The causes of this decline are summarised. Key words: Piarists; education; Mikulov; Strážnice; Hustopeče; Kyjov; Brno The most important literature on the Piarist Order in the Czech Lands is the publication The Piarists in Bohemia, Moravia and Silesia by the authors Zemek, Bombera and Filip.2 This is an immensely valuable work for the history of the order. No great attention is, however, paid here to the 19th century. The history of the Piarist Monastery in Strážnice in the 19th century is mentioned in a number of small works.

  • The Piarist We Need
    SALUTATIO PATRIS GENERALIS The Piarist we need LETTER TO OUR ur next General Chapter, which will commemorate the fourth cente- BRETHREN nary of the publication of the Memorial to Cardinal Tonti, written by Saint Joseph Calasanz to defend his project of the Pious Schools being NOV 2020 constituted as a religious Order of solemn vows, will work on some important themes, inspired by the Memorial. One of them has to do Owith the title of this fraternal letter. Indeed, Calasanz insists very strongly on one of his deepest convictions: the Order of the Pious Schools will go forward only if the Piarists live the vocation with authenticity. He thus states, in the aforementioned memorial: “The en- largement and propagation of the Pious Schools, according to the needs, desires and instances of so many, cannot be done without many workers, and it is not possible to get them if they do not have great spirit and are not called with a par- ticular vocation; because those called in general to leave the world, having no spirit but of incipient people, still need to wean themselves from the comforts of the world and will always prefer, as the experience shows, some Order already approved in which after the Novitiate they are sure to have their lives secured and can reach the priesthood, rather than entering a Congregation where, in- stead of these advantages, they will encounter other difficulties that stem from a life mortified by the imposed work with boys, hard by the continuous effort of their profession, and despicable in the eyes of the flesh, which thus considers the education of poor children”.

  • JOSEPH CALASANZ (1557–1648) Josep Domènech I Mira1
    The following text was originally published in PROSPECTS: the quarterly review of comparative education (Paris, UNESCO: International Bureau of Education), vol. XXVII, no. 2, June 1998, p. 327-39. ©UNESCO:International Bureau of Education, 1999 This document may be reproduced free of charge as long as acknowledgement is made of the source. JOSEPH CALASANZ (1557–1648) Josep Domènech i Mira1 An educational giant The year 1997 will mark the four-hundredth anniversary of free public primary education in modern Europe. It was four centuries ago that the great Spanish educator, Joseph Calasanz, founded the Pious schools, the first step on the long and difficult road to universal, free education. His philosophy and his life’s work were highly innovative and left their mark on this and many other aspects of education. In the seventeenth century, he was matched in stature only by Comenius, and a number of parallels can be drawn between the two educators. Each belonged to a separate and antagonistic camp in a Europe convulsed by the Thirty Years War: Comenius was the educator of Protestant Europe and Calasanz the educator of Catholic Europe. Both men were born in the sixteenth century, Calasanz in 1557 and Comenius in 1592. The difference in age was considerable, but the Spanish educator lived until the age of 91 and so was a contemporary of the Czech during the first half of the seventeenth century. In Moravia, Comenius’ homeland, and in other European countries, the influence of the two great teachers overlapped. Both promoted universal education and the use of national languages in schools.

  • Pope Francis Speaks to Piarist Superiors
    Audience with the Order of Poor Clerics Regular of the Mother of God of the Pious Schools (Piarists), 11.11.2017 At 12.10 yesterday, in the Clementine Hall of the Apostolic Palace, the Holy Father Francis received in audience members of the Poor Clerics Regular of the Mother of God of the Pious Schools (Piarists). The following is the Pope’s address to those present: Address of the Holy Father Good morning, and many thanks, Father General, for your words. You can imagine that, after sending you this document, I did not want to give a speech… So I asked the Father whether I should speak in Spanish or in Italian, and he told me that “Almost everyone understands Spanish”. Thank you for coming, and thank you for bringing the family … Las Montales, who kept them in the El Salvador College, and I know them well – the family. This is good, a religious congregation has a family that surrounds it, people who work, laypeople, everyone. The family is a sign of fruitfulness and humanity. Thank you for coming. I put three things, three words in the message, which I return to now to say a few words. Educate, announce, and transform. Let’s look at the first: to educate. Educating is very serious at the moment. It is a big challenge, because the educational pact in general is broken. The educational pact – and now, I am very influenced by my country, but I see that everywhere it looks more or less the same, school, family and young people – it is broken.
