Graduate Liberal Studies at Georgetown Volume 9 Number 2 Fall 2011 L S Graduate Liberal Studies at Georgetown Volume 9 Number 2 Fall 2011 In This Issue — l Commencement 2011 l New DLS Director l DLS Profiles l Program News and Events About Graduate Liberal Studies at Georgetown Each time Dean Ridder and I meet to discuss the next issue of Graduate GRADUATE Liberal Studies, one of our favorite tasks is to go through the news that alumni, faculty iberal tudies L S and students have sent during the prior months. Over time what has caught our AT GEORGETOWN attention is the significant number of publications that Liberal Studies students and alumni have generated. The diversity and depth of the projects, books and articles EDITOR never fails to impress us. As a result, we decided to undertake the task of compiling a Sandra Vieira list of as many Graduate Liberal Studies student and alumni publications as possible so we can eventually showcase the very substantial level of literary talent this pro- WRITERS gram produces. Frank Ambrosio Deans Ridder and Ambrosio disseminated several emails asking for all students James Benton Robert L. Manuel and alumni to provide a list of their publications. Thank you to those who responded. Anne Ridder The variety of publication topics we received to date has been impressive.

  • Early Modern Catholicism : an Anthology of Primary Sources
    Early Modern Catholicism makes available in modern spelling and punctuation substantial Catholic contributions to literature, history, political thought, devotion, and theology in the sixteenth and early seventeenth centuries. Rather than perpetuate the usual stereotypes and misinformation, it provides a fresh look at Catholic writing long suppressed, marginalized, and ignored. The anthology gives back voices to those silenced by prejudice, exile, persecution, or martyrdom while attention to actual texts challenges conventional beliefs about the period. The anthology is divided into eight sections entitled controversies, lives and deaths, poetry, instructions and devotions, drama, histories, fic- tion, and documents, and includes seventeen black and white illustrations from a variety of Early Modern sources. Amongst the selections are texts which illuminate the role of women in recusant community and in the Church; the rich traditions of prayer and mysticism; the theology and politics of martyrdom; the emergence of the Catholic Baroque in literature and art; and the polemical battles fought within the Church and against its enemies. Early Modern Catholicism also provides a context that redefines the established canons of Early Modern England, including such figures as Edmund Spenser, John Donne, John Milton, William Shakespeare, and Ben Jonson. 1. Durante Alberti, ‘The Martyrs Picture’, 1583. The Blessed Trinity is depicted with two martyrs, St Thomas of Canterbury (1118–70) on the left and St Edmund of East Anglia (849–69) on the right. Christ’s blood falls on the British Isles and erupts in flame. The text is the College motto, Ignem veni mittere in terram (I have come to bring fire to the earth) (Luke 12:49).
