  • Albs, Advent, and White Supremacy; Or, Why the Worship Leaders Have Not Been Wearing Those Long White Robes Kathleen O’Keefe Reed October 16, 2019
    Albs, Advent, and White Supremacy; or, Why the worship leaders have not been wearing those long white robes Kathleen O’Keefe Reed October 16, 2019 At the beginning of Advent, 2016, I wrote the following to explain why I and other worship leaders were not wearing albs. That practice continues, with the exception of “high holy days,” like Christmas and Easter. Here’s what I said back then: Those robes, called albs derived from tunica alba meaning “white tunic,” were the standard business suit of professional Roman men in the early centuries of the Common Era. The alb did not become the go-to Christian priestly garb until the beginning of the 5th Century. “For example, in a transitional stage, Jerome, (341-420), distinguishes between everyday clothing and a special ‘suit of clean clothes for wear in church…”” writes J.G. Davies in A Dictionary of Liturgy and Worship, p. 367, Macmillan,1972. Davies goes on to say that “all ranks of clergy wore the plain alb until the eleventh century.” After that, albs were by turns, more or less plain. Davies, writing in the 1970’s, concludes that up to present day the alb “is to be thought of as the archetypal ‘white robe’ of Christianity.’” Just as Davies’ tome went to print in 1972, a liturgical renewal in the American Lutheran church was gearing up. The centrality of the baptismal font as lifelong source of identity rather than ticket to heaven got heightened. Weekly Eucharist became the norm. The new green Lutheran Book of Worship reflected these renewed priorities, so the church shopped its closet for new-old symbolism.

Transactions of the Burgon Society, 17 (2017), pages 101–122 An Argument for the Wider Adoption and Use of Traditional Academic Attire within Roman Catholic Church Services By Seamus Addison Hargrave Introduction It has often been remarked that whilst attending Church of England or Church of Scotland services there is frequently a rich and widely used pageantry of academic regalia to be seen amongst the ministers, whilst among the Catholic counterparts there seems an almost near wilful ignorance of these meaningful articles. The response often returned when raising this issue with various members of the Catholic clergy is: ‘well, that would be a Protestant prac- tice.’ This apparent association of academic dress with the Protestant denominations seems to have led to the total abandonment of academic dress amongst the clergy and laity of the Catholic Church.

  • A Short History of the Wearing of Clerical Collars in the Presbyterian Tradition
    A Short History of the Wearing of Clerical Collars in the Presbyterian Tradition Introduction There does not seem to have been any distinctive everyday dress for Christian pastors up until the 6th century or so. Clergy simply wore what was common, yet muted, modest, and tasteful, in keeping with their office. In time, however, the dress of pastors remained rather conservative, as it is want to do, while the dress of lay people changed more rapidly. The result was that the dress of Christian pastors became distinct from the laity and thus that clothing began to be invested (no pun intended) with meaning. Skipping ahead, due to the increasing acceptance of lay scholars in the new universities, the Fourth Lateran council (1215) mandated a distinctive dress for clergy so that they could be distinguished when about town. This attire became known as the vestis talaris or the cassock. Lay academics would wear an open front robe with a lirripium or hood. It is interesting to note that both modern day academic and clerical garb stems from the same Medieval origin. Councils of the Roman Catholic church after the time of the Reformation stipulated that the common everyday attire for priests should be the cassock. Up until the middle of the 20th century, this was the common street clothes attire for Roman Catholic priests. The origin of the clerical collar does not stem from the attire of Roman priests. It’s genesis is of protestant origin. The Origin of Reformed Clerical Dress In the time of the Reformation, many of the Reformed wanted to distance themselves from what was perceived as Roman clerical attire.

  • Guidance on the Wearing of Clerical Attire and Vestments by Members of the Society of the Holy Trinity
    PASTORAL STATEMENT GUIDANCE ON THE WEARING OF CLERICAL ATTIRE AND VESTMENTS BY MEMBERS OF THE SOCIETY OF THE HOLY TRINITY 1. The wearing of distinctive clerical attire and liturgical vestments by Christian ministers goes back at least to the fourth century when emblems of office were presented to bishops, presbyters, and deacons and a separate set of clothing was kept in the church building for wear when leading divine worship. 2. Clerical attire on the street usually consisted of a simple robe that in the Western Church came to be called a cassock. The word "cassock" comes from Middle French "casaque", meaning a long coat. A comparable robe, looser fitting than the Western cassock, is worn by clergy in Eastern churches. The cassock is to be distinguished from the monastic habit that consists of a simple tunic over which is placed a scapular (apron) and cowl (hood). Cassocks have varied in style from one time, place, and tradition to another. Usually they are black but they can be in other colors designating ecclesiastical office or attachment to particular churches. Bishops, for example, have worn purple cassocks or purple cinctures and piping with a black cassock. Some cassocks were shortened into a knee-length frock coat. Gowns were often worn over the cassock as an overcoat. 3. Lutheran pastors in the North American British colonies continued to wear distinctive clergy gowns with tabs. Henry Melchior Muhlenberg purchased an English-style clergy gown in London on his way to Pennsylvania to serve Lutheran congregations there. Perhaps because of conditions on the frontier, clergy gowns passed out of fashion by the early nineteenth century.

Transactions of the Burgon Society, 5 (2005), pages 42–58 Layer upon Layer: The Evolution of Cassock, Gown, Habit and Hood as Academic Dress by Alex Kerr Writers on the history of academic dress sometimes mistake which medieval garments were the antecedents of those worn in modern times. This happens especially when they misinterpret the evidence from memorial brasses and other pictorial sources. The situation is complicated by the fact that several Latin terms are used for a single article of dress in early university and college regulations and one term may refer to quite different articles at different periods. Now, as then, it is common to use words for clothing in both a narrow and a broad sense: for example, in modern English we use ‘jacket’ and ‘coat’ with various meanings, some of them overlapping or interchangeable. Similarly, in writing about medieval dress ‘gown’ or ‘robe’ may be a very specific item distinct from ‘cassock’ or ‘habit’ at one point, but any long, loose garment at another.

In interculturality, an interaction of cultures, the representation of ideas also plays a similarly significant role.
