  • Fiestas and Fervor: Religious Life and Catholic Enlightenment in the Diocese of Barcelona, 1766-1775
    FIESTAS AND FERVOR: RELIGIOUS LIFE AND CATHOLIC ENLIGHTENMENT IN THE DIOCESE OF BARCELONA, 1766-1775 DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Andrea J. Smidt, M.A. * * * * * The Ohio State University 2006 Dissertation Committee: Approved by Professor Dale K. Van Kley, Adviser Professor N. Geoffrey Parker Professor Kenneth J. Andrien ____________________ Adviser History Graduate Program ABSTRACT The Enlightenment, or the "Age of Reason," had a profound impact on eighteenth-century Europe, especially on its religion, producing both outright atheism and powerful movements of religious reform within the Church. The former—culminating in the French Revolution—has attracted many scholars; the latter has been relatively neglected. By looking at "enlightened" attempts to reform popular religious practices in Spain, my project examines the religious fervor of people whose story usually escapes historical attention. "Fiestas and Fervor" reveals the capacity of the Enlightenment to reform the Catholicism of ordinary Spaniards, examining how enlightened or Reform Catholicism affected popular piety in the diocese of Barcelona. This study focuses on the efforts of an exceptional figure of Reform Catholicism and Enlightenment Spain—Josep Climent i Avinent, Bishop of Barcelona from 1766- 1775. The program of “Enlightenment” as sponsored by the Spanish monarchy was one that did not question the Catholic faith and that championed economic progress and the advancement of the sciences, primarily benefiting the elite of Spanish society. In this context, Climent is noteworthy not only because his idea of “Catholic Enlightenment” opposed that sponsored by the Spanish monarchy but also because his was one that implicitly condemned the present hierarchy of the Catholic Church and explicitly ii advocated popular enlightenment and the creation of a more independent “public sphere” in Spain by means of increased literacy and education of the masses.

Two research questions were raised in this thesis: 1) whether FoU remains stable over time, 2) whether amount of language change over time can be predicted using FoU. A 1147-word subset of the IDS wordlist (Key & Comrie, 2007) was used to test these questions. The FoU of both Latin and Spanish, and amount of change for each word was measured. There was a lower correlation across time than cross-linguistically, but the effect of genre could not be removed. A weak, highly significant negative relationship between FoU and amount of change was identified, supporting the claim that high frequency words change less than low frequency words. There is an intriguing correlation between FoU and lexical change, but the causal mechanism is not yet understood.

  • Sundials on the Quirinal: Astronomy and the Early Modern Garden
    Sundials on the Quirinal: Astronomy and the Early Modern Garden Denis Ribouillault Abstract This paper deals with the function and meaning of sundials in Early Modern Rome, more specifically in gardens. It concentrates on two gardens, both on the Quirinal hill and directly facing each other: the papal gardens of Monte Cavallo and the Jesuit garden of the Noviciate of Sant’Andrea del Quirinale. Set on each side of the magnificent Via Pia, these gardens represented two intersecting yet contrasting worlds, a rude juxtaposition of one cosmos clashing against another: that of a Jesuit community and that of the Papal court. Each had developed a specific language to articulate their main concerns and proclaim their truths to garden visitors. By drawing a contrasting picture of the S. Andrea garden and the Papal gardens, in which sundials were given very different meanings, the intent of this paper is to probe the awkward, contradiction-ridden, spinoso relationship between religion, science and curiosity in Early Modern Rome. In 1685, the Dutch civil engineer Cornelis Meyer devised a method to re-erect the obelisk of Augustus, which had formed part of a famous ancient sundial known as the Horologium Augusti. Published in a book on hydraulic engineering, Meyer’s method was supplemented by an entire section in which he explained how one could transform Rome’s piazze, with their obelisks and columns, into colossal sundials. He suggested that the obelisk be erected on Piazza Monte Cavallo on the Quirinal hill and that the monument be given back its ancient gnomonic function (Fig. 1). Meyer’s elaborate gnomon would determine the hours of the night through the use of the same type of pierced gnomon that would be used a century later, in 1792, when the obelisk was finally erected on Piazza D.

  • The One-Room Apartment of Cornelis Meijer* 3
    © Ashgate Publishing Ltd 3 The one-room apartment of Cornelis Meijer* Joseph Connors www.ashgate.com www.ashgate.com The subject of this chapter is the one-room or ‘efficiency’ apartment devised by the Dutch engineer and inventor, Cornelis Meijer (1629–1701), and published in Rome in 1689 in four rare prints. Let us consider Meijer’s career for a moment before turning to the apartment. Cornelis Meijer www.ashgate.com Cornelis Meijer was born in 1629 in Amsterdam.1 Details of his formative years are sketchy, but he was a practical man who moved in scientific circles, developing expertise in both hydraulics and astronomy. In 1668 he was stimulated by discussions in Dutch academies on Archimedes’ test of the weight of gold in a crown made for the king of Syracuse (by measuring the crown’s, and his own, displacement in water, leading to the Greek scientist’s famous ‘Eureka!’).2 On 20 Januarywww.ashgate.com 1674, after meditating on the problem, Meijer demonstrated a hydrostatic balance to the Estates General. In search of a profitable outlet for his knowledge of water, he journeyed to Venice in that year, where some of his hydraulic proposals were adopted and he was given the official title of engineer. In April 1675, however, at the age of 44 or 45, Meijer decided to visit Rome. What might have begun as a simple excursion at the time of Easter (14 April 1675) turned into permanent residence in the Urbs. Meijer joined thewww.ashgate.com long list of consultants who, for over a century, had turned their hydraulic expertise on the unruly Tiber, especially after the disastrous floods of 1557.3 Andrea Bacci, physician and humanist, wrote a treatise, Del Tevere, in 1558, from a medical and philosophical point of view, while Antonio Trevisi of Lecci came at the problem from the world of military architecture and engineering.

  • A Papal Hall of State: Ceremony And
    A PAPAL HALL OF STATE: CEREMONY AND MULTIFUNCTIONALITY IN THE BORGIA APARTMENT by EMILY BROWN KELLEY TANJA JONES, COMMITTEE CHAIR HEATHER MCPHERSON MINDY NANCARROW A THESIS Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in the joint program in Art History in the Graduate Schools of The University of Alabama and The University of Alabama at Birmingham TUSCALOOSA, ALABAMA 2014 Copyright Emily Brown Kelley 2014 ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ABSTRACT Situated on the second level (piano nobile) of the Vatican Palace, overlooking the south side of the Belvedere Courtyard, are eight rooms or sale that comprised the papal apartment of the Spanish native, Pope Alexander VI (Rodrigo Borgia, born c. 1431; r. 1492-1503). These spaces once hosted powerful cardinals and heads of state for diplomatic or religious matters. They also served as Alexander VI’s private living spaces. During meetings or meals with the Borgia pope, guests encountered a visual array of opulent fresco programs that included fictive tapestries along the lower half of the wall surface, vibrant narrative lunettes on the upper half, and lavishly gilded vault programs decorated by Bernardino Pinturicchio (1454-1513) and his workshop during 1492-94. Combining iconographic study, examination of primary source documents regarding court ceremony and use of the space, and architectural analyses of Roman palazzi from the period, this thesis offers the first sustained consideration of the multiple, and often overlapping, functions that the eight rooms of the Borgia apartment likely served during Alexander VI’s pontificate. Such an effort is especially important as Alexander VI’s apartment in the Vatican Palace represents the oldest surviving decorated papal apartment in Rome.

Dussias Professor of Spanish, Linguistics, and Psychology Thesis Supervisor John Lipski Edwin Erle Sparks Professor of Spanish and Linguistics Honors Adviser * Signatures are on file in the Schreyer Honors College. i ABSTRACT Findings from two different lines of research in psycholinguistics provide conflicting answers as to whether the retention of form takes precedence over the retention of meaning in memory. To reconcile this ongoing debate as to whether the retention of form takes precedence over the retention of meaning in memory, an eye tracking reading study was conducted on bilingual Puerto Rican participants at the University of Puerto Rico, Rio Piedras. Participants read unilingual Spanish and codeswitched sentences and answered short comprehension questions which were always in unilingual sentences. The task was subject to two conditions (1.) where there could be no delay between sentence and question or (2.) where participants completed a simple math problem between sentence and question. The results found a significant main effect of Switch and a significant interaction between Switch and Delay. These results suggest that form (i.e., the language) of the critical noun is retained and results in interference. However, a simple math problem—lasting only a few seconds—was enough for this interference to disappear.

This year, the Novena took place from Jan. 21 to 29, provid- ing parishioners with daily refl ections and opportuni- ties for prayers and actions to promote the respect of all human life. “Every year, Diocese of Brooklyn parishioners attend the March for Life in Washington, D.C. to pray for an end to the tragedy of abortion. This year, due to the pan- demic, the March for Life is virtual, so attendance was not possible,” said Father Joseph Gibino, vicar for Evan- gelization and Catechesis. “But, here in our Diocese, we can pray in communion for the protection of all human life, either at one of our Masses or through this year’s special Novena.” On Jan. 21, the Co-Cathedral of St. Joseph held the opening Mass for Life with strict health and safety guide- lines put in place. Deacon John Cantirino from Immac- ulate Heart of Mary Parish in Windsor Terrace, who an- nually walks in the March for Life, attended the Mass to keep his tradition alive in a similar fashion.
