The new Roman Missal Vigil and March for Life What exactly is the Roman Missal? The red book that the priest uses most often during Mass is called the Sacramentary. The Sacramentary and the Lectionary for Mass, which includes the Scripture readings, together make up the Roman Missal. The missal is the collection of prayers, chance, and instructions (rubrics) used to celebrate Mass. This includes prayers such as the Sign of the Cross; Opening Prayers; Gloria; Creed; Eucharistic Prayers; Holy, Holy, Holy; Memorial Acclamations; and the final blessing. Most of the prayers we recite or sing at Mass are contained in this book and it is these prayers that recently have be re- translated from the original Latin into English. In the early Christian Church, many of the Mass prayers were memorized and handed down orally. They were col- lected and recorded by scribes in the book of sacraments or sacramentaries (liber sacramentum). Eventually the chants, Scripture readings, prayer texts and instructions were compiled into a single volume. The inven- tion of the printing press allowed the Mass texts to become standardized and published universally. In 1474, the first Ro- man Missal was printed in Latin.

  • Cultural Anthropology Through the Lens of Wikipedia: Historical Leader Networks, Gender Bias, and News-Based Sentiment
    Cultural Anthropology through the Lens of Wikipedia: Historical Leader Networks, Gender Bias, and News-based Sentiment Peter A. Gloor, Joao Marcos, Patrick M. de Boer, Hauke Fuehres, Wei Lo, Keiichi Nemoto [email protected] MIT Center for Collective Intelligence Abstract In this paper we study the differences in historical World View between Western and Eastern cultures, represented through the English, the Chinese, Japanese, and German Wikipedia. In particular, we analyze the historical networks of the World’s leaders since the beginning of written history, comparing them in the different Wikipedias and assessing cultural chauvinism. We also identify the most influential female leaders of all times in the English, German, Spanish, and Portuguese Wikipedia. As an additional lens into the soul of a culture we compare top terms, sentiment, emotionality, and complexity of the English, Portuguese, Spanish, and German Wikinews. 1 Introduction Over the last ten years the Web has become a mirror of the real world (Gloor et al. 2009). More recently, the Web has also begun to influence the real world: Societal events such as the Arab spring and the Chilean student unrest have drawn a large part of their impetus from the Internet and online social networks. In the meantime, Wikipedia has become one of the top ten Web sites1, occasionally beating daily newspapers in the actuality of most recent news. Be it the resignation of German national soccer team captain Philipp Lahm, or the downing of Malaysian Airlines flight 17 in the Ukraine by a guided missile, the corresponding Wikipedia page is updated as soon as the actual event happened (Becker 2012.

  • Dr. Florence P. Haseltine, Ph.D., M.D. Activities of the Foundation While Bringing Recognition to a Worthy Woman in Medicine
    The Foundation for the History of Women in Medicine The 14th Annual The Foundation for the History of Women in Medicine, established in 1998, was founded on the belief that knowing the historical past is a powerful force in shaping Alma Dea Morani, M.D. the future. Though relatively young, The Foundation for the History of Women in Medicine has made significant accomplishments in promoting the history of Renaissance Woman Award women in medicine. The Alma Dea Morani Award continues to provide an annual centerpiece to the Dr. Florence P. Haseltine, Ph.D., M.D. activities of The Foundation while bringing recognition to a worthy woman in medicine. This year we honor Florence P. Haseltine, Ph.D., M.D., Emerita Director, Center for Population Research at the Eunice Kennedy Shriver National Institute for Public Health (NICHD) of the National Institutes of Health. The Foundation’s Research Fellowships, offered in conjunction with the The Archives for Women in Medicine (AWM) at Countway Library’s Center for the History of Medicine at Harvard Medical School, continue to be competitive. The 2013 recipient, Dr. Ciara Breathnach, lectures in history and has published on Irish socio-economic and health histories in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. Her research focuses on how the poor experienced, engaged with and negotiated medical services in Ireland and in North America from 1860-1912. Dr. Breathnach’s focused study of record of the migratory waves against trends in medical and social modernity processes, are held at the Archives for Women in Medicine at the Countway Library and will be weighed against other socio-economic evidence to establish how problematic groups such as the Irish poor affected and shaped medical care in Boston.
