  • Counsels of Religion
    COUNSELS OF RELIGION Author: Imam Al-Haddad Number of Pages: 280 pages Published Date: 24 Jan 2011 Publisher: Fons Vitae, US Publication Country: Kentucky, United States Language: English ISBN: 9781891785405 DOWNLOAD: COUNSELS OF RELIGION These three matters, in themselves often innocent and not forbidden to the devout Christian , may yet, even when no kind of sin is involved, hold back the soul from its true aim and vocation, and delay it from becoming entirely conformed to the will of God. It is, therefore, the object of the three counsels of perfection to free the soul from these hindrances. The soul may indeed be saved and heaven attained without following the counsels; but that end will be reached more easily and with greater certainty , if the counsels be accepted and the soul does not wholly confine herself to doing that which is definitely commanded. On the other hand, there are, no doubt, individual cases in which it may be actually necessary for a person , owing to particular circumstances, to follow one or more of the counsels, and one may easily conceive a case in which the adoption of the religious life might seem, humanly speaking, the only way in which a particular soul could be saved. Such cases, however, are always of an exceptional character. As there are three great hindrances to the higher life, so also the counsels are three, one to oppose each. The love of riches is opposed by the counsel of poverty; the pleasures of the flesh, even the lawful pleasures of holy matrimony, are excluded by the counsel of chastity; while the desire for worldly power and honour is met by the counsel of holy obedience.

Transactions of the Burgon Society, 5 (2005), pages 36–41 The Question of Ecclesiastical Influences on French Academic Dress by Yves Mausen The talk given at the Burgon Society’s Congregation in October 2005 on which this paper is based was intended as a tribute to Professor Bruno Neveu, one of the few French scholars to take an interest in academic dress. He had been made a Fellow of the Society honoris causa only shortly before his untimely death in 2004. I had the privilege of inheriting the archives on his favourite topic which he had collected during his lifetime, and I found amongst the documents an additional folder containing material for a history of ecclesiastical dress. My initial idea was to connect this field of research with my own interest in medieval ceremonial and thus try to establish whether the church gown had influenced the university robe in France, as one might be led to think from the appearance of the latter.

  • Cornette, Carla. Colonial Legacies
    http://www.gendersexualityitaly.com g/s/i is an annual peer-reviewed journal which publishes research on gendered identities and the ways they intersect with and produce Italian politics, culture, and society by way of a variety of cultural productions, discourses, and practices spanning historical, social, and geopolitical boundaries. Title: Colonial Legacies in Family-Making and Family-Breaking: Carla Macoggi’s Memoirs as Semi-Autobiography Journal Issue: gender/sexuality/italy, 7 (2020) Author: Carla Cornette, Pennsylvania State University Publication date: February 2021 Publication info: gender/sexuality/italy, “Continuing Discussions” Permalink: https://www.gendersexualityitaly.com/13-colonial-legacies-family-making-and-family-breaking-carla- macoggis-memoirs Author Bio: Carla Cornette is an Assistant Teaching Professor of Italian at Pennsylvania State University and the faculty co-leader of Penn State’s study abroad program in Reggio Calabria. She holds a Ph.D. in Italian from the University of Wisconsin-Madison and a minor in African Cultural Studies and Gender and Women’s Studies. Her dissertation project (2018) is entitled “Postcolonial Pathology in the Works of Italian Postcolonial Writers Carla Macoggi, Ubah Cristina Ali Farah, and Igiaba Scego” and interrogates the notion of depression in Italian postcolonial literature as a politically and socially induced phenomenon. She is currently preparing a monograph based on this study which argues that melancholic psycho-affective sequelae that manifest in Black diaspora women literary figures are the natural and expected consequence to continual subjection to multiple axes of oppression including race, gender, geography, and class, inequalities which have their origins in Italy’s colonial history. Abstract: Kkeywa: Storia di una bimba meticcia (2011) and La nemesi della rossa (2012) constitute the sequential memoirs of Carla Macoggi, Ethiopian-Italian author and attorney.

It was later incorporated with the French Daughters of Charity of St. Vincent de Paul in 1850, which was founded by Saint Vincent de Paul and Saint Louise de Marillac in 1633. Even though the Sisters of Charity was originally founded by adopting the rules and constitutions of the French Daughters of Charity, it had no connection with the government of the Sisters of Charity in France until 1850 (Hannefin, 1989: 14-5). In order to emphasize the American origin of the Sisters of Charity of St. Joseph, and to prevent confusion, we will refer them as the Sisters of Charity throughout this study.

  • A 1470S Turret Headdress from France Ilaria Rosati This Is Primarily
    A 1470s Turret Headdress from France Ilaria Rosati This is primarily a style for noblewomen, especially at the French royal court, but wealthy women in cities and towns would have worn similar. The origins of this style lie to the East: from the Ottomans, the Persians, the Mamluks, and perhaps Chinese, but my focus is on the headdress worn by noblewomen in France in the 1470s.1 Broadly speaking there are 4 main parts to this headdress, though not all are present in every single instance: 1) A fillet, which held the hair in place and helped anchor the turret. This fillet appears in artwork but I do not know of any clear textual evidence for this specific item, possibly the terms bout, touret, or chapelet may have been applied to this item.2 2) The turret itself, also called a haut bonnet, or a chaperon à cornette. I think it is more likely that the term hennin was used for the earlier horned headdress which went out of style by the 1450s.3 3) The frontlet, a rectangular band worn on top of a headdress, framing the face or wrapping around to the back of the head. Young girls could wear the frontlet on its own directly over their hair. In many images, particularly illuminations, the difference between a frontlet and the fillet mentioned above is ambiguous. 4) A veil, quevrechief à baniere, worn over the turret and trailing down behind. Materials The complete materials list is lost to history and will always be a matter of some conjecture.

  • The French Hood – What It Is and What It Is Not
    The French Hood – what it is and what it is not By Lady Alliette Delecourt (mka Irina Lubomirska) 1 Author’s note on images Most images used in this paper are digital copies of artworks of long-dead artists and are therefore public domain. However, there are a number of photographs of funerary sculpture that are fundamental for this paper. I have contacted the photographers and have written permission from them to use the images for this purpose. Links to the source of the image are provided. Brief history of the French hood The French hood originates in France, or more precisely Brittany, with its earliest versions being worn by Anne of Brittany in late 15 th century. It becomes popular in England from 1530s. Anne Boleyn is often credited with introducing the hood to England, although Princess Mary Tudor (Henry VIII’s sister) is seen wearing the hood earlier, in 1516 (see Figure 11 below). Upper class French women abandon the French hood by the end of 1560s, but it continues to be worn in England until the end of the 16 th century and (although not fashionably) several decades into the 17 th century. The common representation of the French hood The popular belief about French hoods seems to be that it is a rigid headdress with a crescent- shaped protrusion on top, often decorated with jewels. That is certainly how the French hood is portrayed in movies – the examples below are screenshots from “The Other Boleyn Girl”, “Anne of a Thousand Days” and “A Man for All Seasons” respectively.

When the Imperial University, created by the law of 10 May 1806, was organised by the decree of 17 March 1808, the body of teachers in the five faculties: Catholic & Protestant Theology, Law, Medicine, Science, Arts - numbered only about 200 in the whole of the French empire. This number only increased very slowly during the C19 and it is only from 1880 that Higher Education became an important Public Service, with the faculties being grouped, under the terms of the law of 10 July 1896, into universities under the control of each académie (education authority).
