EUCHARISTIAE Relatum est huic S. Congregationi de disciplina Sacramentorum in nonnullis Dioecesibus quosdam Vicarios Foraneos, aut Decanos, vel Parochos solere singulis duobus vel tribus mensibus hostias comparare easque distribuere in propriis et filialibus Ecclesiis pro Missae sacrificio peragendo ac pro fidelium eucharistica communione. Elapso hoc temporis spatio, nova fit acquisitio et distributio hostiarum, quae pariter duobus vel tribus mensibus sufficiant, ac ita deinceps. Et exquisitum est an probari possit huiusmodi praxis adhibendi, pro SSmo Eucharistiae sacramento, hostias a tribus vel duobus mensibus confectas. Haec S. Congregatio, omnibus mature perpensis, proposito dubio respondit : negative, et servetur praescriptum Ritualis Romani et Codicis Iuris Canonici. Rituale Romanum (tit. IV, cap. I, De Sanctissimo Eucharistiae Sacramento) haec praecipit: Sanctissimae Eucharistiae particulas frequenter renovabit (parochus). Hostiae vero seu particulae consecrandae sint recentes; et ubi eas consecraverit, veteres primo distribuat vel sumat. In Codice Iuris Canonici haec statuuntur: Can. 815: panis (pro Missae sacrificio) debet esse mere triticeus et recenter confectus ita ut nullum sit periculum corruptionis. Vinum debet esse naturale de genimine vitis et non corruptum . Can. 1272: Hostiae consecratae sive propter fidelium communionem, sive propter expositionem San- ctissimi Sacramenti et recentes sint et frequenter renoventur, vete- ribus rite consumptis ita ut nullum sit periculum corruptionis, sedulo servatis instructionibus quas Ordinarius loci hac de. re dederit . Propter maximam autem quae debetur reverentiam erga SS. Eucharistiae Sacramentum mandat haec S. Congregatio ut in cunctis ecclesiasticis Dioecesium ephemeridibus datum responsum edatur, quo facilius omnibus patescat et ab iis, ad quos spectat, fideliter ác religiose servetur.

  • Theodora by Ophelia Stride 9Y
    Theodora (497-548) was a Byzantine empress, wife of the emperor Justinian I and the most powerful woman in Byzantine history. BY OPHELIA STRIDE 9Y OPHELIA BY THEODORA WHO WERE THEY AND WHY WERE THEY FAMOUS AND HER EARLY LIFE? Theodora, (born c. 497 CE—died June 28, 548, Constantinople was the Byzantine impress, wife of the emperor Justinian I (reigned 527–565) and was probably the most powerful woman in Byzantine history. Her intelligence and political presence made her Justinian’s most trusted adviser and enabled her to use the power and influence of her office to promote religious and social policies that favoured her interests. Little is known of Theodora’s early life, but her father, Acacius, was a bear keeper at the Hippodrome (circus) in Constantinople and my sources says that she became an actress and prostitute while still young, therefore leading an unconventional life that included giving birth to at least one child out of wedlock. For a time, she made her living as a wool spinner. When Justinian met her, she had been converted to miaphysitism, a nonorthodox doctrine. Attracted by her beauty and intelligence, he made her his mistress and married her in 525. Her unfortunate background meant that prior to the marriage, special legislation had to be passed legalizing unions between actresses and men of senatorial rank or higher. When Justinian succeeded to the throne in 527, she was proclaimed augusta. her superior intelligence and deft handling of political affairs caused many to think that it was she, rather than Justinian, who ruled Byzantium.

This painful recycling of history should make him—and us—want to know what unhealable wound, what recurrent pathology, what cause too deep for journalists and politicians to discern draws men and women to their deaths again and again in such a place. The history of Rome, as has often been true in the past, has much to teach us.

One and a half centuries later, at a time when the Christian Church had become victorious within the Roman Empire, God deigned that Euphemia the All- Praised should again be a witness and confessor of the purity of the Orthodox teaching. In the year 451 in the city of Chalcedon, in the very church where the glorified relics of the holy Great Martyr Euphemia rested, the sessions of the Fourth Ecumenical Council (July 16) took place. The Council was convened for determining the precise dogmatic formulae of the Orthodox Church concerning the nature of the God-Man Jesus Christ. This was necessary because of the widespread heresy of the Monophysites [“mono-physis” meaning “one nature”], who opposed the Orthodox teaching of the two natures in Jesus Christ, the Divine and the Human natures (in one Divine Person).

  • Textual Representation and Visual Display Of
    Female power and its propaganda: textual representation and visual display of imperial women in Late Antiquity and Byzantium (II) 16:00 - 18:30 Friday, 23rd August, 2019 Room 8 Presentation type Workshop 163 The image of empress Lupicina/Euphemia in the patristic sources Margarita Vallejo Girvés University of Alcalá, Alcalá de Henares, Spain Abstract Among the important governments of emperors Anastasius and Justinian, and those of their respective wives, that of Justin I has gone unnoticed. Until the study of B. Croke in 2007 the period between 518 and 527 has been treated as a previous step of the mandate of Justinian I, being therefore Justin I a mere puppet in the hands of his nephew. Nonetheless, there is currently a broad debate about the figure of Justin I and his real political activity. On top of this, it should not be surprising that the interest for Euphemia, wife of Justin I, has been practically reduced to a simple opposition to the marriage of Justinian and Theodora. However, the ecclesiastical sources present her with a great capacity to influence her husband in such matters as the end of the Acacian schism, which was the great religious initiative of Justin I´s reign. This is the case of Pope Hormisdas, on behalf of the supporters of the ecclesiastical union between Rome and Constantinople, who requests the intervention of Euphemia to persuade the emperor to restore three Chalcedonian bishops deposed by Anastasius I. This is also the case of John of Ephesus who, as attested in fragments preserved through Pseudo-Dionysius of Tel-Mahre and Michael the Syrian, is presented not only as an active militant of the Chalcedonian, but also as the only member of the court of Justin I whose pressure on John of Constantinople achieved that he accepted, in the end, the union with Rome.

The study begins in 395 CE after the death of Theodosius, and continues through the reign of Justinian. The two sections provided below confront perceptions of eastern Romans through the authors Claudian and Sidonius. Although Claudian and Sidonius are writing at different time periods, they are both writing at a time when the Roman emperors are puppets for semi-barbaric leaders. Roman authors propagate to their audience that Roman culture continues to dominate, and particularly that western Romans are superior to even the eastern Romans. Claudian proclaims western dominance by asserted that the east is made effeminate by Eutropius, and therefore the eastern Romans defaulted to being subordinate to masculine westerners due to gender stereotypes.

  • Justinian: Lieutenant of Christ, Legislator for Christendom
    JUSTINIAN: LIEUTENANT OF CHRIST, LEGISLATOR FOR CHRISTENDOM CraigA Stern* Born a peasant of the Balkans and elevated to the highest station on earth, the Roman Emperor Justinian produced perhaps the second most important writing in the history of the world. His faithfulness to God in the work God had put before him produced fruit that nourishes man and glorifies God to this day, one and one half millennia later. Jus- tinian's greatest work, second in influence only to the word of God, is the Corpus Juris Civilis, the definitive compilation of Roman law. The year 483 saw the birth of Petrus Sabbatius in the town of Tauresium, in what is now Yugoslavia. There he likely would have stayed had not his uncle Justin risen through the ranks to become chief of the imperial palace guard in Constantinople, New Rome, capital of the Roman Empire. The childless Justin had drawn his nephew to the capi- tal, where the illiterate soldier hoped Petrus would acquire the command experience his uncle possessed and the learning his uncle lacked. These attainments, and political connections, would make the youth a suitable heir., Petrus Sabbatius, taking the added surname Justinianus in honor of his avuncular patron, apparently took well to his military duties, to his studies-especially in theology and law-and to Theodora, a lowborn actress of loose morals and engaging personality. The death of the em- peror in 518 led to the elevation of Justin himself to the Purple. By then, the 36-year-old Justinian had become well prepared to guide his uncle, if not in fact to reign through him.2 (Actually, it seems Justinian was of- fered the throne himself before Justin, but declined in favor of the old soldier.

Upon viewing the Hagia Sophia, still in existence today, one can see the clear ties to the ancient church honoring the martyred St. Polyeuktos. Through studying the two churches, however, it is made evident that these two structures were not commissioned for solely religious purposes.
